Burdick has been beat at least 3 times on the long passes. You can tell they scouted us and have found a weakness. I would love to see us out coach someone once.

It was a good season to bad we didn't come to play tonight. Shots not falling but no excuse for all the second chance points Louisville has in this game. They are shooting until they make it. Our biggest problem is stopping the offensive rebound.

Yeah, we got it made in the 2nd half, it'll be a cinch to come from 15 down playing a team that has confidence. Yeah, we got it made, no problem.

This is classic Simmons, and really this whole team. I hope they get this together, this is frustrating just to watch.

I hope so. I really would hate to us lose.

They are sleep walking. No hustle-energy what so ever. They are not rebounding, playing defense, or shooting well. Hope they come out with a better attitude in the second half. If they can pull it out tonight, they should beat Cal and be in the finals.

There needs to be fire and brimstone at the half. The pregame speech was the opposite of what it needed to be.

They are 15 ahead and this is the first timeout we have called all game. That part is on Holly. She should have settled her troops down earlier.

Is that true? Inexcusable. Holly is not the answer--she is too much of a player's pal. We practically had a trip to the title game gift-wrapped--but Ct or ND would kill us, so maybe a blessing in disguise. It is not losing that hurts, it's choking against an inferior team--coaches and players.

Hey chill out Peter Griffin! Some of us played both football and basketball at a fairly high level. We all love the Lady Vols. I havent seen any trashing of coach or players. We all good.

I would just like to go to a tournament where we don't end up embarrassing ourselves and where our players play hard and smart whether they are up or down on the scoreboard.

I thought this team was mentally tougher than the last bunch, and they were pretty resilient most of the year, but tonight we have reverted to form.

Oh well, at least the meltdown did not come against UConn.

Has Tennessee been down this many and won this year?

Just got off work and saw the halftime score. Was hoping for a better performance, hopefully they've got a big run in them for the 2nd half.

I agree, they were looking ahead.

It might keep us from total embarrassment in the Final because if we were to win tonight I could see us beating Cal and making it. No matter the winner of UConn , ND. Both of those teams will or would mop the floor with TN.
