I think the Vols looked like the rest of the SEC teams, worn out from the experience of the SEC Championship. I think they were just ready to go home.

Some of the teams just breeze through their conference playoff like Memphis did, or don't even have one. The SEC Championship was tough and then throw in a tornado and I think it took its toll on all of them.

Minnie, I respectfully disagree.

I don't believe that any team that makes the Dance is tired and just ready to go home.

What I do believe is that the SEC was not a strong conference this year. I believe the polls agreed overall and with no disrespect to Georgia, showed in the SEC tourney.

Overall, the SEC was very young this year and they will rebound in a year or two...

Well not literally, but just mentally and physically.

For once, I agree with you. Very down year for the league. Not sure how much things will improve for next year either.

And while we're on the tourney subject, how about Davidson? Absolutely taking Wisconsin to the 'shed. Great story there.

Well, at least Tennessee accomplished things that had never been done by a Tennessee team. They had a #1 National ranking even though it was short lived, they won the SEC outright, had not done that since 1967 and won 31 games this season. No Tennessee team had ever won 28 games in a season.

So they have that to be proud of. I think they were just tired last night. They had no answers for Louisville. They caused Louisville to turn the ball over many times last night but just could not capitalize off of those turnovers. I hope they can recruit some more bigger guys during this off time to have to build their program up for next year.

And I will ignore CB. They are still exhibiting sour grapes at the Vols beating them and taking away Memphis #1 spot in the nation which they have never gotten back. Texas is waiting on you Memphis, not that I'm cheering for Memphis you understand. :lol: That is farthest from the truth.

I think Davidson is playing fantastic ball. They deserve to be in the Elite 8.
They will have to face the winner of Kansas and Villanova. That will be tough.

CBS is on my sheet list! (them and the people who bring toddlers to bars). :angry:

Either televise the ENTIRE game or give up/sell the rights so another network/channel can!
