This has been an exciting season so far for basketball lovers in Tennessee. And tomorrow (Saturday February 23) it's about to get even more exciting.

Memphis, ranked #1 in the country, is hosting Tennessee, ranked #2 in the country. It's been a banner year for both schools, and it's too bad that one of them is going to have to lose.

So tune in on ESPN tomorrow night for a 9pm ET tip off.

And, of course, GO BIG ORANGE!!!!!!

Very excited for this game - the buzz around campus is almost tangible.

How odd that the highest-ranked UT basketball team isn't coached by Pat Summitt...

I wish! But I've gotta stay here in Knoxville tomorrow. But my best friend here in Knoxville is actually a Memphis fan (he played football for Memphis State), and we are most definitely NOT going to be watching the game together.

Are you going?

Nope; I'll be rooting for them from home. I really do need to get a new TV; my poor old set isn't that great for such important tv watching! GBH, did you ever get your new TV mounted on the wall?

Yeah, and while I'm not much of a college basketball fan, that is going to be THE game this season here in Tennessee.

Although I am a die hard Fighting Illini fan, I have been watching the Vol's come along for 3 or 4 weeks now. Since the Illini are having an off year, I try to watch the Vol's play whenever they are on a major network. Always very exciting to watch, and could be a national champion, GO VOL'S.

Vandy aint havin a bad year either!
As for the big game--i think whichever team makes free throws will win. Vegas has memphis as a 6 point favorite but the ESPN guys are picking UT. Should be a great game.

I think if ETSU can avoid a lot of turnovers they should beat Tech.
