The Official #7 Tennessee vs. Alabama Game Thread, 6:00 PM ET, ESPN2

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

We needed a wake up call in the second SEC game?

After being lauded by the blue check marks all week as one of the best three teams in America, we very well may have.

 

[OJJ]

Agree. He’s always been like that. Never callls TOS to stop another teams run

Maybe could have slowed it down

 

[Bigorange123]

If your in the buildin, get loud please.
it was bound to happen

 

[Dougie_D]

Yep. He’s gotta be injured or Barnes is sending a message

Probably a message about not trusting him to hit a free throw

 

[Freak]

Another TN team with big dreams ahead of the season but quickly crushed by the play on the field/court. I know it's early but I ain't feeling it.

Climb down off the ledge. It’s one game.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Rofl....that about sums up the game.

 

[1985Vols]

So much for the Top 5 this week

 

[peerless98]

5-13 with 1 assist

Keon is 5-12 and 0-3 from behind the arc. Is he SEC caliber?

 

[tnvols72]

Somebody tell Johnson or Barnes that he cant dribble

 

[RockyTopRiot]

Every team has their off days. Look at Gonzaga with one of the easiest conference schedules, and they have never been undefeated.

 

[UneducatedGuess]

Springer had a non contact injury.

I’m concerned it’s a little more than a rolled ankle.

 

[vol4eva]

Atrocious shooting

 

[VolsSportsFan]

How many wide open 3s has V missed.

 

[zeppelin128]

F*** Bama

 

[1985Vols]

JJJ a no show. Just don’t understand why all that talent goes to waste

 

[casetopia]

Ugh you had one job guys. Beat bama in something.

 

[chef3531]

Yep. Probably the last 10 minutes or thereabouts. Could've helped us on offense, but defensively he was a liability guarding on the perimeter.

He couldn't hit a free throw to save his life. He wasn't helping on offense either

 

[GBO18]

We needed a wake up call in the second SEC game?

You know this isn’t the typical 2nd game of SEC play with all the games being canceled.

 

[sportsnut624]

It’s comical how bad we’ve shot the ball. I mean it’s almost impressive to miss this many wide open shots

 

[Vols All Day]

Why Vescovi is in and Fulky not beats me.

They were continually running isolation plays to attack Fulky.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

I’m going to stay out of this forum until we win again.

Don’t want to see negativity in the basketball program. It’s already bad enough in the football forum.

 

[1985Vols]

4-19 from 3. Just pathetic

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Unfortunately Fulkerson was a liability on defense with Bama spreading out offensively.

 

[BreatheUT]

Tennessee is going to have to find answers on offense or Springer is going to have to take someones minutes.

 

[vavolfan6]

We shot absolutely miserably today and still had an opportunity to beat a team that shot 50% from 3.

We couldn't hit free throws. Fulky was terrible. Pons was in foul trouble the first half and our deep bench is weak. Springer got hurt. 20% from 3. It took alot of bad things to happen to lose. We will be fine. We beat Bama 9/10 times. We got caught on the wrong night.
