The Official #4 Tennessee vs. #5 Duke NCAA Tournament Game Thread, 2:40 PM ET, CBS

[FlVols]

Great first half boys!! Keep it up and beat these devils!!

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

May, I'm getting winded sitting on the edge of my couch just watching him run around that much

Dude moves like Curry. Wish we had some other shooters so he could get some space

 

[connor]

We're not shooting well at all but our defense is phenomenal and I'll happily take a 6 point halftime lead against Duke.

 

[Butch s]

Vescovi with the best hustle play of the game, and there are supposed fans who dog him daily. Have said before and I’ll say again. BEST player on this team

 

[BreatheUT]

For the love of Pete please push the lead. We’ve had 3 chances.

Neyland - put on more steam.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

And for those who say Barnes isn’t animated? He just went after the ref before the interview regarding the foul on Awaka.

He did and I enjoyed it

 

[WillisWG]

Duke with 21 first half points...damn good defense

 

[joevols89]

Great finish. Duke is going to hit shots 2nd half so we are going to have to hit more too.

 

[The Dog]

The is balling !

 

[Stoerner Fumbles]

Not a pretty half but I’ll take it. Keep it up and hope they don’t start hitting everything they throw up.

One of the best defensive halves we’ve played against one of the hottest teams in the country.

Unlike 75% of posters on here this weekend - THIS TEAM ISN’T SCARED OF THE NAME ACROSS THE JERSEY!!!

 

[OldandStillaVol]

Great first half. Attack, attack, attack!

"Referee"?

 

[Caz]

Vescovi is having a hell of a game!!

I will for sure be one person that misses him in the future. Helluva TN Vol!!

 

[joevols89]

See? Attack the basket guys! Stop the stupid 3s and we will win this game.

Can only attack it when we pull Lively out from the basket or he’s sitting tbh.

Way to go Santi. Love the shake and bake baby.

Now Someone, anyone wake JJJ and Phillips up!

let’s go!!!!!!

TN going to have to beat the officials as well in 2nd half.

8 fouls On each team.

 

[Madscientistvol]

Duke with 21 first half points...damn good defense

Duke looks shellshocked.

 

[Tenacjim]

Love that acting job Vescovi!!!!

Payback is a b!tch

 

[BreatheUT]

Uros can’t move around Flip and get a shot off. He tried once and it was rejected down his throat.

It was a finesse move. That's not going to work. I thought it was Lively but won't work with Flip either.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Unlike 75% of posters on here this weekend - THIS TEAM ISN’T SCARED OF THE NAME ACROSS THE JERSEY!!!

It's not the name on the jersey, it's the zebras who support the guys with the name on the jersey

 

[volbound1700]

FBP

FBP?

 

[Namorto1]

Drive that ball and good things happen. Vescovi can’t get any rest and hopefully continues to dribble drive when they sit on his perimeter shot.

Santi plays basketball like it's soccer!

 

[Matt2496]

Duke has averaged 72.5 points per game. We've held them to 21 so far.

 

[molsen81]

Ladies and gentlemen we are looking good. UTK is my alma mater so by default my bracket has us winning it all. Duke can make a long run too but they can’t handle our Defense.
