Tennessee Pregame Thread

I wonder what our record was against Big East teams over the last decade or so.....off the top of my head, I'm betting it's fairly decent, with about just under 10% of those actual home games.

I hope we keep clear of injuries and can get our bench guys solid minutes. Shocks win easily 76-59

It has been fun beating a lot of Big Least teams these past years.

Realtime RPI projects WSU 85 Tenn 62.

Real Time RPI does not understand this is not a true home game for us. Their projected spreads change dramatically on if it is a home team or away, and has no way factoring neutral court sites. The line will be much, much tighter when released. I would guess Shocks are favored by 5 or 6.

WSU - 92
Tennessee - 62

Take it to the bank.

Our unhyped, less talented and less physical bigs play better than theirs.

Baker back over 20. Kadunk shows back up on the highlight reel. JR Simon smokes a cigar in a lawn chair at center court for the last 4 minutes.

The Big East is a decent mid-major conference. I wouldn't mind getting a home and home with a Marquette or a Georgetown.

And for all of you insiders out there, Georgetown was nearly our Tennessee this year.

Ok, you Big East elitist troll. You must be a Creighton fan! We dont talk about them around here. So take your elitist crap somewhere else.

Where's a Mod?!?

Edit: I mean, Tennessee is a good game, but lets not pretend they are a Big East Mid-Major.

How many tournament games have they won? Final Fours?

I wouldn't rely on that source too much, especially this early in the year, if you are thinking about placing a bet.

I put this in the Hottest Ticket in Town topic, but figured it should go here, too. New court design for the game Saturday:

Excellent, as noted by AndShock the default court at IBA is pretty darn boring and looks horrible on TV. Let us hope the decals are not slippery, or that the humidity is too high. Other schools in the state can not handle that.
