Not when you wear orange. On one possession they called ziggler for a foul that he didn't really commit. The next time down the court they fouled our guys with more contact 5 times and no call. They let them be much more physical than us. Aidoo was playing well and has hardly played because they've called much less physical plays. The outcome was predetermined before they left Knoxville. Barnes knew it. That's why jjj and jp didn't play.

Then why bother. It's the refs, man. The script and the refs.

The SEC hates us!

Well....Mashack is good at knocking the ball away, especially on defense .

 

[Revived2002]

Injuries and inconsistent play has been the undoing of these Vols

Still might make a run in the tournament but boy have they been painful to watch of late

 

[SoilVol]

With JJJ and Phillips we win this game. Tough game.

 

[Atzar]

We need an upgrade at starting PG this offseason. Among other things, but that’s the big one to me. I like ZZ as an energy bench guy but I don’t like him as a starter at all. He cannot create quality offense in half court sets.

 

[Gilbert]

This team is not enjoyable.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

He has a higher % than anyone but Santi or Key.

Yeah because most any threes he takes are wide open in the flow of the offense not falling forward desperation shots. He can't make those.

 

[UTProf]

Another thing about our offense tho... We've gotten so bad at shooting that defenses aren't even bothering to bite at the motion we do.

Like how we fought. Bring that to neutral courts.

Feels like the team is who it is for now, until JJJ and Phillips return. Need to find magic in about 4 weeks. We have time.

 

[turdherder11]

Love how Barnes kept the TO instead of getting the ball across half court and drawing something up to set up SV.

It absolutely is fixed. KY needed a win, A&M needed a win tn was the sacrificial lamb. I'm sorry you have such a hard time believing it's Crooked but it us.

Yeah team isn’t at full health. That has taken its toll.

There has been guys cutting wide open to the basket all game. ZZ and Vescovi can't see them.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Had our chances. Just blew it. It’s a theme now.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Because there was no reason to think it would get stolen back.

This is Tennessee.

This team has to have some luck swing their ways down this stretch. The numbers in these close games dont add up, sooner or later they gotta have some help from the fates.

nope

Why did am need a win? They have 2 losses in conference play.

 

[#JuanVol]

I’m actually impressed we were that close when they shot 30 ft and one guy made more fts than we attempted

 

[Revived2002]

I’m over it. Flush it and move on to the next one.

Go Vols!

 

[MwB]

Not going to be successful spotting the other team 15+ points off of free throws, starting to happen often.

 

[Jackcrevol]

This team is not enjoyable.

meh, take a lap.

 

[Devo182]

Is anyone besides ZZ allowed to drive?

Santi seems to have given up on it, maybe I'm wrong but...

And I thought he was really solid in years past with the euro step and assists while driving.

 

[bignewt]

It's the refs.

They're a bubble team. It was said they needed a quality win.
