And here we are. A situation we never thought we’d see has come to light, as the Tennessee Lady Vols are no in serious danger of not making the NCAA Tournament. Remember, before 2009, this is a program that never failed to make the Sweet Sixteen and never failed to have a player make the Final Four.
A loss to the Mississippi State Bulldogs on the road shouldn’t have been such a killer for this team, and we know the RPI doesn’t look at margin of victory. But, even without Evina Westbrook, there’s no way to ignore the fact that Holly Warlick’s team lost by 28 points on Sunday.
