The Official #4 Tennessee vs #15 Kentucky Game Thread, Saturday 4:00 PM EST/CBS

Free throws

Yep

 

[ttocswob]

Tough...

 

[Chris4Vols22]

A contested 3 from Josiah was a good shot? That’s Knecht’s shot. Nobody else. Get the hell out of the way and let him shoot.

Watched it again, and it was more contested than I first thought.

 

[Cartervol]

Can't miss that many shots. Can't leave guys that wide open. End of story.

 

[barney]

lol imagine where we would be if they had called that kentucky player out of bounds instead of giving him a basket

 

[ButchPlz]

Dude stepping out of bounds and not getting called is huge. Also FTs killed us

His whole damn foot was out. Awful.

 

[TN1111]

Great game Knecht!

 

[TheMookieMonster]

It is going to haunt me the rest of the night that we had a chance to tie with 21 seconds left and Dalton Knecht never touched the ball and we took the shot with 10 seconds left instead of waiting to get Knecht a touch.

 

[KeyVol14]

Committee will punish us losing by 4 to UK but will be ecstatic with AZ beating USC

 

[joevols89]

JJJ is a fifth yr senior with an open look. Part of the game.

DK takes that shot no matter what unless we are under 5 seconds. It was too early to give up on DK or even ZZ.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

That missed kensucky player stepping on the baseline is looking bigger.

And all the missed FTs.

And kinda not showing up until the last of the game.

 

[Caz]

Santi and JJJ struggle in a big game. Shocking. Haven't seen that the past 3 years

SV.. no points

 

[JCP201]

We weren't on, it didn't mean as much, but our defense is still awesome and NCAA isn't going to be as prepared for us as Kentucky --who knew us and needed to win.

 

[tnvols72]

Maybe Tn needed to be humbled

 

[Creeker]

Took maybe UKs best defense effort all year, them being very hot from deep, a game where we were basically a one man show for most of the game and they still barely escaped, one shot away from OT or a loss. All that while coming at the end of an insane run of games for us, hate losing to UK anytime, but not gonna feel too bad about it.

It is going to haunt me the rest of the night that we had a chance to tie with 21 seconds left and Dalton Knecht never touched the ball and we took the shot with 10 seconds left instead of waiting to get Knecht a touch.

He fell under the basket on the run around.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

We all know how this ends. What a shame. This was high level basketball and shouldn’t cost a seed line. If anything, KY should earn a bump.

Trust me I agree but Lunardi nerd ass and Cbs dude will both push for Arizona and I'm sure that sways the minds of some on the committee. Plus Arizona in West as 1 seed sells more tickets in LA.

 

[volsarelife1]

Vescovi... 0 points for the 46 year senior. That's not going to cut it

 

[amaralfan1]

Kentucky had to play out of their minds to beat us.... After the gauntlet we just went through. I like our odds in a rematch in the tourny. They won't play that perfect against us again.

 

[Cdywolfe]

Only team in the league that gets an unfavorable whistle on the road and at home.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

We just played the 4 teams behind us… hard to win em all, and we didn’t have to!! GBO!

 

[GBO18]

How many times has JJJ been the one to take the clutch shot and missed lol

Honestly? Every single shot I can remember.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

No worries. Probably due a loss to a team you might want to chalk out to the EE in your bracket

 

[Caz]

Maybe Tn needed to be humbled

Losing on senior day at home might do it

 

[johnfnkelly]

y’all are crying about that out of bounds like we didn’t get gifted a bucket with that Mashack goaltend.
