Title: Well, now it begins
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on February 25, 2024, 04:20:20 EST
The four game closing stretch we've all been dreading. I think 3-1 or better gets us a 1 seed. I'll be satisfied with 2-2.

I think 3-1 would likely lock up a tie, but I would prefer to go 4-0.  :thumbup:

Leave no doubt.

Vols are better than all 4 of these teams. Should win them all. Easier said than done.  It's all about the matchups. Road wins are another tough bet. 3-1 would be good. 4-0 would be great heading to the tourneys.

2-2 is the floor
3-1 is the expected
4-0 is the hoped for

Auburn will be a tough win
Their matchups against us, especially their bigs will be difficult.  We have improved there but that is still our achillies heel.
Their D is legit and they will press us all 96 feet (their KenPom defensive and offensive efficiency ratings are very similar to ours)

Bamer should be a win, even on the road, as defense is a four letter word for their coach

CSC should be a win, Revenge game and all that.  We have improved, they haven't since the first game
I expect our defensive gameplan will be the opposite of Saturday's game = I would put JJJ on Mack and harrase his fat ass off the 3 point line

The kittens will be a tough game, the kittens have their best guard back (out with an ankle injury when we played them at TBA North)
We should be favored as we have a far bettter defense but if Dilly goes off again who knows

UNC lost 3 of their last 7 games and they were all to unranked teams but have jumped into a 1 seed.  :bird:

Blueblood and all that
Surprised the kittens aren't a 1 seed now, after their win against bamer
