I’m still trying to get myself together after last night’s drinking fest, so my motor and typing skills aren’t exactly on par right now.
The Vols upset the Tigers 66-62, short of my prediction, but a win’s a win. Chris Lofton did next to nothing the entire game, but JuJuan Smith, Tyler Smith, JP Prince and Wayne Chism picked up the pace and carried Tennessee to a win. You can see highlights of the game here, and I advise you to watch the hand shake between Calipari and Pearl at the end; it seemed almost more awkward than watching Belichick and Mangini try and pretend they have respect for one another at the end of a game.
I’m going to keep posting throughout the day, though the quality may suffer. I’m still really, really hurting.
