I was in Columbia Sunday, arrived into peak traffic departing the women's LSU game, RV's jockeying along Huger. Should be less traffic for this one.

Columbia is one boring drive from Atlanta, not as bad as Macon-Savannah, though.

I started out college playing baseball at Georgia Southern, so I know that boring drive on 16 well.

ESPN Matchup Predictor gives us a 31% chance to win and Vegas has TN a 3 pt. favorite.

Gonna be a fun game. See how team responds.

Definitely going to be tough tonight. Not sure Bediako possibly being out is that big of a deal. Bad knee hindering his movement would probably be a bigger issue than him sitting out all together.

Defense.

Almost all of our other games are at 9 and I can make those since softball is over at 8, but of course the biggest game this season it seems is at 7. Gah! Oh well, I'll get to watch the second half, just hope it's not a Alabama-Oklahoma type game and over before I get the chance to tune in.

Anybody know the odds on an unblemished SEC regular season?

 

[TerryP]

UT: James is out. Phillips?

I did that a few games a go...what a much more pleasant experience

Yep surprised bama is underdog and small percent chance to win. Lets see if they have what it takes to play with all odds against you. Going to need that to win a championship. Hope they can do it.

Currently showing 69% in favor of UT. Interesting, maybe that will light a fire under the boys tonight. Also they're predicting UT to score 3 points above their season average and Bama to score over 10 points below our season average. Very interesting information they're going with here. Guess they think we don't know how to play defense?

 

[SnakeDoc]

Home court must be quite the bid deal in basketball.

 

[PurlJam]

Looks like its gonna be a football game.

Home court must be quite the bid deal in basketball.

Huge deal, especially when the home crowd hates the other school so much. This is starting out like the barner game this past weekend. Bama's having to weather a storm, but it's not as bad.

 

[mando]

Turnovers killing bama. Oh it also doesn't help that they are letting the Viles maul Bama w/o calling fouls. I appreciate playing hard and playing defense but good lord this is ridiculas.

 

[SnakeDoc]

What is that stupid font on UT's jerseys?

“Vols” and you are correct, it’s STUPID!

 

[#80]

As bad as we played lucky to be tied at half. I look for Miller to take over in the second half.

 

[EasyTider]

Do we actually run any plays/screens on baseline inbound or does everyone just stand still and hold their hand up? Looks like the later

Refs doing ok so far. First half 8 fouls on each team. Now that could change the second half if refs decide to play to the home crowd. We shall see.
