The Official #25 Tennessee @ Auburn Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN

This team has just become not fun to watch. It’s sad.

 

[1985Vols]

This is unbearable.

Horrible coaching. Let them run 25 seconds off the clock and then foul them

 

[Teeboy]

This is college basketball; how you start <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< how you finish. Nobody talks about 10-1 starts when you go 1 and done in the NCAAT.

Just get in...anything can happen.

This team has just become not fun to watch. It’s sad.

Just like the football team was

 

[Catbone]

Seasons like this are eventually why Texas fired Barnes.

He's terrible in February and March

 

[vol94]

Just leaving work and turned on radio. How in the he$$ did we lose? No excuse. Barnes worst coaching job thus far at UT.

So frustrating. Can’t believe Auburn will beat us.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Wish we would play the whole game like there's 60 seconds left and we are down by 10

 

[Teeboy]

That came from the announcer you clown. Like they say, its not how you start , its how you finish and Tn is finishing at 500

LOL.....enjoy the game, if that's possible. It all counts.....

 

[Rocky Top Raby]

I'm just glad they actually had a season......most on here have forgotten about that..,,,thus, they can't enjoy it. I never thought that we would be a great team this year. Not sure where that came from actually....

Yeah, losing games is acceptable because theres a pandemic. Tell the AD they should rehire Pruitt because we should just enjoy the face there is a season.

Pearl beat Barnes.. six times in a row now

 

[hUTch2002]

Pearl is a better basketball coach than Rick Barnes. Period.

I don’t think that’s clear. His style matches up well with Barnes’s style but Pearl’s teams here at UT had issues too. He seems to be a better motivator for sure though.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Its a 2

 

[Matt2496]

This team is way too inconsistent to make any meaningful run in the NCAA tournament.

 

[99gator]

I got flamed for saying that a few weeks ago, but its true.

He's a good coach and he's going to get you to the tournament. He's made the program relevant.

But, he's not really going to turn them in a national threat and he's not going to acquire a whole lot of hardware.

Florida is in the same boat with Mike White. We win enough to make the tournament (And that's certainly a cool deal), but they are never going to do much more than just that.

 

[Teeboy]

If they win....this site will be very quiet.

 

[1985Vols]

Refs are a joke

 

[A-RodWiLks]

I honestly wonder if Barnes cares at all

 

[zjcvols]

Wish we would play the whole game like there's 60 seconds left and we are down by 10

It’s like pushing the pace is a good thing

 

[Creeker]

If his foot was on the line that hurts

 

[1985Vols]

If they win....this site will be very quiet.

Not happening

 

[VolsSportsFan]

OMG.....how do you not make sure you're behind the line.

Geezus.

 

[casetopia]

Ref fall down go boom

 

[Lankykong]

So if Pearl magically loses this game, am I allowed to call for him to retire or nah? Not gonna happen but if a miracle happens I’ll be all about it

 

[vol94]

Pearl beat Barnes.. six times in a row now

Pathetic.

 

[Rocky Top Raby]

I can't wait til we send Barnes to a home and stop pretending like we've ever been a contender with him here. Should never have fired Bruce, he's done more than Barnes and had to take three years off.
