Tennessee vs. Arkansas Game Thread

I'll be there...

Great. I'm the guy in the autographed Bradshaw jersey. :dance2:

With that little, piece of crap gym they have in Athens, it may not be hard to spot you out...

 

[emainvol]

they were both in the Sweet 16.

That's a collectors item for sure. Never see a line for anyone getting his autograph.

Hopefully this will help their confidence at Georgia next week and the rest of the games away from Knoxville this season... :rock2:

Again, you can not read my post without putting words in my mouth. I don't recall saying we shouldn't rely on him. I recall saying we do wayy too much. Any team that relies on 1 player that much can not be a good team at this level. Duke did it last year, and got put out when he didn't have a good game. It will happen to us this year.

Again? This is the first time I have replied to your nonsense.

I see your point. Now help me out with mine... How far did either of those go in the tournament?

Both went to the Sweet 16, and Gonzaga was a blown double digit lead away from the Elite Eight. I'd take that in a heartbeat for this team.

 

[TN Vol 0320]

And what exactly do you win for getting to the Sweet 16? I agree that for this team to get that far would be an accomplisment, simply stating that a team can never be a complete team and go all the way when they rely on 1 player as much as we do Lofton. Every good player has off nights.

This is irrelevant though because I think everyone on this board agrees that we are not Final 4 material so we are arguing over nothing...

Why is there no stats on the game at espn.com? Where can I see the stats?

Agree with that 100%

3. Tennessee should refrain from attempting to run clock with a lead at the end of games. Just keep doing what you do well.

Good point. In my head I was saying run the clock but they just changed my mind. We may not have the experience to get a good shot inside 10sec so just run it like normal.

And did you see Hakeem Warrick and Gerry McNamera?

 

[emainvol]

a great example of a team that gelled at the right moment. that syracuse team absolutely turned it up in the tourney.

 

[tidwell]

johnnybravo, utsports.com should have the box score up in a few minutes.

Who say TN isn't a final 4 team? On there best day there's no one in the country that can beat them - Vandy, KY, OkS, Memphis. Oh yeah, these games were in K town. We'll we've got that monkey off our back maybe we can take our best game on the road now.

Or the Syracuse team with John Wallace

 

[tidwell]

The Vols won on the road, Bradshaw hit a jumpshot... will the miracles ever end? :rock2:

 

[allvol123]

And did you see Hakeem Warrick and Gerry McNamera?

Yea, I saw their role players. We have plenty of role players.

Just commenting on your nonsense about a team never being able to go all the way by relying so much on one great player. Syracuse did exactly that.

Kansas with Danny Manning is a much better example of the point you're trying to make.

 

[emainvol]

agreed

 

[MesoVol]

Would you guys stop bitching about what this team isn't and enjoy it for what it is?! :crazy:

Flash back to Wade Houston and get your mind right...

 

[allvol123]

Kansas with Danny Manning is a much better example of the point you're trying to make.

ok. There are probably a lot of examples to diffuse his silly comment.

 

[GAVol]

Exactly the example I was about to post.

no love for John Wallace around here.
