I'm sure we would like to have the UVA and G'town games back; wins in those two, and the Vols are a shoo-in for the NCAA. However, those games are ancient history. The NCAA has historically given extra consideration to teams that are hot late, which the Vols certainly have been. Of course, if they go into the tank and lose a couple of these last ones and do their traditional disappearing act in the SEC tourney, all bets are off. Somehow, I don't think this team will flop like that. They just seem to have that indefinable "something" that distinguishes teams from the pack. Everybody is hustling and contributing. With Stokes, McRae, and Golden, they have the kind of star power the NCAA likes to reward. With their gritty total team play, they are a dangerous adversary for anybody. The dream is still VERY much alive, my friend!

Agreed but we were hot late last year and got snubbed. If we were Kentucky, or Kansas, or Duke, or Carolina we'd be in. But we're not.

At least we don't have a home loss to APSU on this year's resume.
