What are your expectations for this closing stretch?

[Black Diamond Vol]

If we're being honest, we've had it very, very easy with our SEC slate so far. That changes now. 6 of our last 7 are against likely NCAAT teams, with 4 of those on the road.

While this team is capable of running the table, that's probably not realistic. So what's your hope/prediction?

I think I'd be satisfied (if not overly thrilled) with 4-3. If I have to make a prediction, I'd say 5-2, with the losses coming at UK and at LSU.

Do I think the Vols are better than the remaining teams on their schedule? Yes. Should the Vols win the rest of the games on their schedule? Yes. Do I think they will? Maybe. If they beat UK, I think they run the table. Maybe..lol

I think we lose to UK in Lexington & LSU. Wish we'd win them all through the NCAAT... not likely.

These players, and our coaching staff, have created a special team. We are better than any team left on the schedule, and because of that I expect to win out (barring injuries and the like).

That might not happen - that's why they actually play the games instead of just awarding W's to the better teams - but I'll be disappointed if we don't finish the season with only the one loss.

I would be thrilled with only 1 loss... but as far as prediction I'd say 2 losses.

I wouldn't bet good money we beat UK tonight......or LSU....or Auburn if they are hitting a good % of the 55 threes they put up every game which it seems every team we play shoots their season high from the 3 when they play us. We have the talent to win them all but just think it will be tough to do so. Ole Miss plays well at home and just beat Auburn at Auburn....Got Vandy and Miss State at home

Hope we win them all....but not likely. The good thing about basketball is the season starts over come tourney time.
