NCAA First Round: The Official #5 Tennessee vs. #12 Oregon State Game Thread, 4:30 ET, TNT

[NO SIR EEE]

They deserve every bit of this loss. They came in with no urgency from the opening tip and still don’t care. I hope they realize what they’ve done embarrassing this university.

 

[ChattownVFL]

Tired of always being disappointed

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

We came out tight . They were loose .

 

[Delmar]

Not even close to a goaltend either.

On Johnson? The ball had already hit the backboard when he blocked it. That was goaltending

 

[vol4eva]

Another embarrassing day to be a Tenn Vol fan. Used to it by now.

 

[Vols2015]

Keon and Springer will go on to be two of our highest draft picks in Tennessee basketball history, but the emotional state I am in right now also thinks they might be the two most overrated college players in Tennessee basketball history. They'll leave here without really making any impact on the program if we're honest.

To me, I don’t think they’re NBA ready yet.

This team reminds me of my Steelers. Both played well earlier in the season and had high aspirations before choking down the stretch as they couldn’t score to save their lives. Both played like sh$& in post season, one and done

18 assists them .. 7 for us ... 50 percent from 3 for them .. 17 percent for us .. enough said .. offense execution pathetic

 

[cc623]

I thought I could take it... Turned this dumpster fire off before the “talking heads” start the smack talk about the Vols. This was just a pathetic performance for a decent team and even worse for a team with three five stars in the court...

 

[Ttucke11]

I’m honestly surprised we were this good. Can’t score in the post, can’t drive to the rim, and can’t shoot 3s. Most stagnant offensive team I’ve ever seen.

 

[TennBravesFan]

I have never posted in a basketball thread, but what an embarrassment. Tennessee is the biggest joke in college sports.

 

[vols 30]

Anyone really surprised at this result? Knowing how bad we are on offense, it really shouldn't be a shock

 

[ButchPlz]

Offensive player throwing an elbow and no foul.

 

[DarkAvenger]

We came out tight . They were loose .

Then we’ve been tight all year.

 

[vol94]

Great point, except that ITS THE REFS FAULT!!

You cab still blane the refs we are down as much as we are. It could be closer. Pons could be playing more confidently if not having to be foul conscious. It affects the game. I never gained we should be winning!

I hear you. But we got away with some no calls, too.

 

[ButchPlz]

NO BASKET?

 

[VolFreakJosh]

I have never posted in a basketball thread, but what an embarrassment. Tennessee is the biggest joke in college sports.

Then stop following them.

So easy to do

 

[TheMookieMonster]

To me, I don’t think they’re NBA ready yet.

They may not be ready, but they without a doubt are gone. It's not even a question.

 

[Putbacks]

Cheated us out of a basket there!

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Gotta give him the continuation!!
GBO!!

 

[BisonVol]

No way that's not a shooting foul.

 

[Power T-Rev]

To me, I don’t think they’re NBA ready yet.

Keon is projected top 10. I'll trust the experts

 

[hooperj75]

Too little too late

 

[VoLunTiTan7]

Now we start to play with desperation.....

 

[orange_glory]

Can we lower a coaches pay based on results?
