Chris Lofton All-Time Career Three Watch:
| Player | School | Record | Needed to break |
| J.J. Redick | Duke | 457 | 60 |
| Keydren Clark | St. Peter's | 435 | 38 |
| Curtis Staples | Virginia | 413 | 16 |
| Keith Veney | Lamar & Marshall | 409 | 12 |
| Doug Day | Radford | 401 | 4 |
| Gerry McNamara | Syracuse | 400 | 3 |
| Chris Lofton | Tennessee | 398 | 1 |
| Michael Watson | UMKC | 391 | -6 |
- Lofton needs three three-pointers to move into 6th; probable this game
- is averaging 3.4 threes per game on the season
- assuming there are 12 games left in the season (six regular season and six post season), needs to average an even five threes per game
- has hit five or more treys in seven games this season (including an 8-20 performance against North Carolina A&T)
Again, I think Lofton only cares about winning, but we'd love to see him both win and get the record, right?
Yes, there's no TV tonight, so we'll be stuck watching stats and listening to internet radio. Aerobab and hooper may or may not provide exclusive (!) text messages live from Thompson-Boling.
Leave your pre-, in-, and post-game thoughts below. Assuming things are going well in Knoxville, use this thread to discuss the Memphis-Tulane game this evening, too, which is being telecast.
Go Vols! Hulk smash First Tiger!
