No warning that TN is on top of a positive list. I am going blind.

I know, I'm sorry.
And what's worse, the maly vols have a decent chance at the F4 with UVa out.

I believe this is the only year where the LV men have (arguably) had a better season than the women.
 
Well, they are trailing Loyola (11 seed) 38-32 with 15+ minutes in 2nd half.

Possibly 2008-9, when LadyVols were 22-11 and lost in 1st round. Men were 21-12.

Good point. How could I forget about that year :)
 
One Shining Moment. Loyola beats TN 63-62 with Loyola hitting a crazy shot and TN bricking a last second shot which would have won the game. :D:D:D

It was fun seeing Candace Parker disconsolate in the studio after her live renditions of Rocky Top failed to put her Vols over the top.
 
Will any school get both teams to the sweet 16?

Predicting UConn's record is safe for another Year as the only school to win Dual Championships (Twice). UConn might be a factor in eliminating Duke and Florida State if both win their next games and ultimately have to face UConn. UConn also has to win their next game and then beat Duke and Fla St if they do meet.

No Schools Remain to win the UConn Award.

Duke Women loss to UConn women

A&M was eliminated when their Men's team lost to Michigan. Texas Tech is still in Men's Tournament.
