Good thread.

 

[UTVolCountry]

Schedule looks tough as shit.

Xavier is good, Whichita State is usually solid, I believe Virginia is ranked, NC State is good, Kentucky and Florida x2, LSU will be good, playing in vandy's jungle gym is always tough, and then you have that tourney in the Bahamas. UT will definitely have chances to prove themselves.

 

[UTVolCountry]

Also, the new orange & white uniforms without the black...

 

[WestEndVol]

On another note, the Lady Vols will start the seasons #4. Hoping for strong seasons for both our men and women.

 

[UTVolCountry]

Florida Southern leads 38-36, lol

Vols win, 105-80.

Vols hang on to beat SC Upstate, 74-65.

 

[UTVolCountry]

A win's a win

 

[UTVolCountry]

(1-1) Tennessee plays The Citadel (2-2) tonight. UT is favored by almost 30pts. I think it could be closer.

 

[UTVolCountry]

Vols win, 86-60

 

[WestEndVol]

Well, we're 4-2 so far. A little disappointed with the UTEP loss, but pleased with the rematch win over Xavier. Have Wake Forest up next - they're 6-1 and played Kansas close (87-78)...gonna be a tough game.

 

[WestEndVol]

Well wasn't as tough as I'd expected. Vols beat Wake Forest, 82-63.

 

[WestEndVol]

Currently trailing Tennessee Tech, 21-19.
