1. Guys, I'm a UT fan you see. I tried to be an unbiased person while writing and keep my postgame reports focused on basketball. This will not happen today. I cannot begin to adequately properly describe the absolute craziness of this game.
2. Jordan McRae played some crazy ass game. But let's not forget the huge 3 he hit at the end of the first OT (it was the first OT, right?) that sent the game into more OT's. What a ballsy shot.
3. Skylar McBee played his guts out. He gave Elston Turner everything he can handle. Turner was in the zone. You know how a starter in baseball has one of those gritty seven innings game, yeah, he gave up a couple runs, but had 130 pitches and let the bullpen (Josh Richardson) finish the job in a win? That was McBee. What a damn champ tonight. I would like to call him Skylar McDagger.
4. Bernard King Player of the Game: Trae Golden. He had two non charge turnovers in 60 minutes of basketball. He was 11-12 from the free throw line. He had six boards. He was a leader. And he two monster shots in the 4th OT to set up the McBee dagger. Wow.
5. Can I get a shout out to Nicodemus Christopher? The players looked like they had four more OT's in them. Their conditioning was fantastic. Big ups to him.
6. In my time since 2004 as a UT basketball fan, that's probably the craziest game I've watched. Again, it was incredible. Dear Lord.
7. Jarnell Stokes played 53 minutes and didn't foul out. That is incredible. He had four blocks. They were huge.
8. Coach Martin, it took ya awhile, but right call to go pick-n-roll with Golden/Stokes. That was the right call.
9. Say what you want about Coach Martin. His teams never gave up. Everything went TAMU's way early. Yet they kept going, never gave up, and kept attacking. That is what this basketball team is about.
10. Dear Florida. UT is coming for you. I'm already counting down to the minute for Tuesday night. TBA will be rocking out. UT will be pumped. I personally don't give a care about your ranking. UT is coming. You better watch out. That is all.
Go Vols!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
