They're shooting 54% from 3.
We're shoot 0% from 3.
Nuff said.
This is what can't happen come tourney time and unfortunately,this is consistently what happens under Barnes teams. No way to offset bad shooting nights.

 

[tnvols72]

No offense period, just stand around and pass until 2-3 seconds and fire up junk

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Kenis fouling the crap out of us

 

[jbr82]

Barnes waiting on halftime to tell them to guard the 3 ball

Lol

 

[Go47]

Lanier disappearing in a big game again

Yep.

 

[zeppelin128]

I'd feel a lot better if we can get it under 10 before half.

 

[VFL1127]

Why do we keep jacking up 3's

 

[ttocswob]

Felix hits the front end of the 1 & 1 makes both!

 

[patrick]

Carbon copy of the first game.





1. They can’t miss from 3 (we have guarded the 3 very poorly).

2. Every time we get close - they bust a 3.

3. Disappearing act from Lanier - 2 points this half.

Was just saying this.

Whoever had this scout and the previous KY scout is sucking wind.

UK losing left and right but shilling the Vols.

Just abysmal.

I think the Vols are watching the polls instead of film.

We look like we didn’t practice or watch film.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Welp about time to play some marvel rivals

 

[A-RodWiLks]

Pretty ridiculous seeing Z try to set up an offensive play when you have a two-for opportunity only to end up in a rushed 3 shot

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Where is Igor?? Where is Gainey? Looks like no one is showing up so far.

 

[theroyz71]

We can't beat them off the dribble.

 

[tnvols72]

Pope recruits shooters and we recruit defensive players

 

[VOLinAL]

How we have not had a single open three point look is beyond me. Do we even run set plays or practice this at all?

 

[Vols till I fall]

Wondering if the Lakers can trade Knecht to us for Lanier

 

[volgr]

Typical Barnes offense tonight. Sad thing is, KY is awful on defense but we equally bad on offense.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Just amazing. Didn't learn anything from last UK game. Same sh*t. Different location

Say what?

 

[Go47]

Why do we keep jacking up 3's

Where would be without Okpara?

 

[cncchris33]

We have 4 three point attempts so far and you actually think there hasn't been any adjustment at all?

Agree, offensively. Defensively, we look just like we did in Knoxville. We just refuses to guard the perimeter against the best shooting team in the SEC.

Yep another night we can’t shoot the 3 ball.

They are hitting wide open 3s.

 

[tnvols72]

We are the only team in the conference that makes the Kentucky defense look like Houston. Extremely embarassing.

Truth.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Kentucky sure knows how to bother Chaz though.

We should fire Barnes and pull afresh coach that will automatically get us into final fours from the field crop o’coaches waiting to come to Tennessee.
