I think the game will be decided by the simple free throw!VOLS 83-80.:dance2:Talk to me now or at 10pm.:)UPDATE(3/9/08)I think they mean even more now,than ever B 4. Loften,CDR,Tyler,Rose,these guys don't miss much!Means points on the board!

Here is a question I have for all who know bb. Is our team really bad or do we have a couple starters who are bad that bring our % down. The same question for Memphis.

I believe free-throws will be at an all-time high this evening,people will be fouled left and right due to both teams physical nature.

Memphis starting 5 are horrible at shooting FT's. Dozier is their best at 70%. Dorsey is their worst at 33%. When the game is on the line, Lofton and JaJuan will get the ball to shoot our FT's. Those 2 are very solid at 86% and 76%. Tyler is a good ft shooter at 72%. They have not had to prove that they can win a ballgame by hitting ft's in the last minute of a ballgame.

Ramar has also become a decent ft shooter. If you take out the 12 misses in the PV game, then he's hitting 71%.

JP and Chism are killing our ft%age. They both get to the line quite often and most of the time the ft shots just end up being turnovers.

Im sure the last one was the only one Cal was concerned with. When Memphis HAS to make them, they will, just as Cal has been saying all season.

Yeah Tom they were lucky , but at the end they were just plain good ! Thanks , the win made tonight unchartered water for these two teams . My wife came back from wal mart earlier and said it was full of people with tiger gear on ( unreal ) ! Dyersburg and Newbern are usually colored in orange but with this game , it looks like the tigers are gaining some fans . :yes:

I've noticed a trend. UT lost to UK when you posted less smilies, and today you don't seem to be posting many smilies.

Can you please, for the sake of the team, include more smilies in your posts? Our boys' fates rest on your shoulders.

no, the bottom line is their FT shooting almost got them beat by an inferior team. They won't have that luxury tonight

UT is good enough that giving them 10pts from the FT line will lead to a Memphis St loss. UAB wasn't

Maybe , if yall can rebound like you've done in the last few game ! But if you don't , then the rebounds will offset what few points you are rewarded by making a little higher % from the free throw line

6% points difference in the 2 teams could be enough to be a game changer....so, yes it could be the deciding factor

6% ( might could almost ) Tom but I wouldn't bank on a team as sorry as the vols are from the line to win from the line , but you are most defintley right in one aspect , free throw shooting , as bad as mem and tn are , could in the end win the game for either team !
:scare:

Not me! I'm from Brownsville (Haywood Co.) and since age 5 I have always routed for the Vols in both football and basketball. At age 45 I still bleed orange!
GO VOLS BEAT THEM tigers!:clapping:
