SIAP but Purdue fans whining about officiating is so incredible

Aside from the irony you pointed out, it is infuriating that refs swallow the whistle on final plays when they've been super tight all night.

Lawn mowing music about to get fired up.

WE ARE ELITE

Everything Elite Eight School!
Oh and beat usc in baseball too.

Next up Lady Vols versus texas in the Sweet Sixteen. Texas should worry about. Coach ain’t out on maternity leave this time!

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

What a performance!!! This team did not succumb to the onerous weight of decades of Tennessee basketball disappointment.

Why the backhanded compliment?

Stop after your first sentence!
What a performance!!!

No way that's volatile, the video isn't sideways.

Bert was a hoot last night. I was away from home with bad internet and had to listen and I was glad I did.

 

[DD4ME]

Apparently the betting splits are in our favor.

 

[Devo182]

Now if done adjusted for SoS...probably not so close (just those box stats)

But KenPom says they're top-3, so I believe they deserve all of the respects.

Was going through some Vols stuff and found this treasure. I won't let it go cheap, but if anyone wants to make a fair offer, let me know.

Give me 20 dollars and I'll take it off your hands. Then I'll line the cat's litter box with it and sell it back to you once he craps and pees all over it.

Elite 8 and a BaseVols win. It's a good day. Anyone know how we did in softball?

Win of course

So did Georgia copy Billy Amick's The Stroke fan and player clap? I just saw them doing it in the Auburn game. Going to have to tell my son to change his walk-up song...ha.

Who does Kentucky play next?

I saw a post on YouTube last night that said something like, "I haven't seen Kentucky fans this mad since they moved Sudafed behind the counter."

How crazy is it that there’s a chance the SEC and NCAA tourneys will have the same teams in their semifinals?

how cray to lose the SEC tourney to UF but beat them for National Title..reminiscent of SEC football iirc..what was that LSU and Bama?

Good lord it’s about as even as you could ask for. This gonna be our toughest game of the year?

Seriously Alamodome is where Final Four is being held this season.

I've seen the Spurs play there. It's a terrible basketball venue. They literally hung a curtain across the middle to cut the stadium in half.

 

[#JuanVol]

So Tennessee is playing Houston in a football stadium with Oil in the name…

The Haslam’s will for sure be there.

 

[Devo182]

It will all depend on how the refs call the game.

We're -14 in fouls so far the tournament. Maybe we're due idk, but CRB seems to have a good sense of what can be gotten away with.

 

[tnvols72]

Has anyone seen a clip of the steal and 3 by Zeigler? The broadcast was showing the crowd reaction to the Okpara put-back dunk and then cut back to play as ZZ was shooting. I still don’t know how the steal happened.

All I could put together was after Chaz missed the shot and Okpara slammed it back, Chaz momentum carried him out of bounds and as he was coming back onto the court,Ky player was inbounding the ball and Chaz with his back turned to the inbounder he raised his arms and the player threw it in and the ball went off of Chaz arms and Z picked it up and drained the 3

Vols TRIPLE BANG will carry me for many years to come



Don't hear those too often. For the good guys, in a big moment, it was triumphant

Just wish the cameras had caught it. But can't blame em for cutting to the happy fans.

Was a total "wtf" happy surprise moment.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Really that game felt a bit odd because you couldn’t figure out where the lead came from to begin with but it was driving the paint for several 3 point plays. We got our 3 pointers just not from the 3 point line. And the added bonus is that those come with fouls on the opponent.

You don't go cold if you attack the rim.

Something I begged for from Barnes teams the last couple years.

 

[Devo182]

ZZ didn't even wait to see his shot go in, he was already busy reminding the guy twice his size that the Supervisor down in the mine was calling him wondering why his son wasn't back to work yet.

I can blame them. I don’t tune in to the games to watch the fans
