If TN plays like Florida usually does, and Florida plays like TN usually does, then we might win, unless it comes down to coaching decisions in the last 10 minutes of the game.

Tennessee is ranked. Golden never beats ranked teams. But he somehow beat a ranked Tennessee team last year so……who knows

We’re probably not gonna win this game. But I don’t think it’s going to be a butt kicking. We ran into a pissed off Ole Miss. That happens in basketball.

I think it’ll be a good game

That's what's frustrating. Imo we can beat anyone. We showed that vs UK. We have the talent but we are not a cohesive unit and we can't hit free throws. Wed have 1 loss if we shot say...75% from free throws imo

That’s been an issue with our teams for about the last seven or eight years. I don’t understand it.

The only thing that I can think of is that the majority of players that we’ve been getting have been really good athletes, but not great shooters?

BD always had dudes that could shoot the lights out in the gym.

Then there's Walter clayton who suddenly becomes a worse FT shooter when he's been clutch all his freaking life

They will need to win the rebounding battle by double figures and play solid 3pt defense. TN cannot shoot > 45% from the field or anything above 35% from downtown for us to stand a chance.
