Who do we want in 1st round?

[top5vols]

After the initial month of the season, UT has been a below-average team. Were it up to me and were I not a Vol fan, there is absolutely no way they'd be in the tournament. Other than the Vandy games, they've folded every time they've played a quality opponent.

Who do they want? No one. This team isn't winning a game against a high-caliber opponent in a pressure situation like the NCAA. Week after week we watch the team play sloppy, disorganized, disjointed basketball. Frankly, I'm ready for this season to be over.

Good it's not up to you. Playing in the NCAA benefits a program.

I want UCLA or Temple in the first round with us as a 10, then BYU in the 2nd round. Easy Sweet 16 if you slow down Jimmer.

If we open with Temple we wouldn't have to worry about BYU or any 2nd round game. Temple would beat Ut.

Does anybody have access to Jerry Palm's bracket? Quite frankly, this guy is more accurate than Joe Lunardi. I'd like to see where he has Tennessee at the moment. Last year, he picked all 34 at-large teams correctly.

i hope people don't take this the wrong way, but you don't want anybody.

a lot of what's wrong with tennessee has nothing to do with their opponent. tennessee has to fix itself first before worrying about matchups.

in addition, i think we have learned by now that the other team (whoever it is) will have a chance to win with 2 minutes to go.

so, it really doesn't matter. tennessee can beat anyone. but, march is not the time to try to fix what's wrong.

I gotta agree at beginning of yr UT looked great but with sanctions everyone from pearl to the team look very distracted, would not be shocked to see one and done

He has us as a 10 seed.

no way

If you were talking from your heart would agree. I know, they beat us at our place but we were without Scotty Hopson. That is is still no excuse to lose to Bama at home.

Remember when we lost to George Mason in the NIT a few years ago?

I think we're, realistically, looking at about four or five potential opponents: Old Dominion, UNLV, Washington, Kansas State, and Temple. That's if we end up as a ten seed as is expected.
