The Official #5 Tennessee @ #15 Kentucky Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[RyanWalkerPGH]

There goes the 1 seed hopes

 

[Vols All Day]

Chaz is killing the Vols. He doesn't want the ball on offense, then he is fouling or allowing penetration in the lane.

 

[connor]

Tennessee could drop 5 more games and would still make the tournament. What are you talking about?

I think he was referring to we won’t make it far in the tournament playing like how we are

 

[Madscientistvol]

This team isn’t going anywhere in March. Offense is too intermittent.

Sad but can’t disagree.

 

[ColinS]

Are you blind?? Zero to do with refs. Loser comment.

We've actually had a good road whistle

 

[Switch 625]

That’s not true at all. It’s just them

It’s hyperbole

 

[vavolfan6]

Are you blind?? Zero to do with refs. Loser comment.

Refs did give Kentucky like 6 straight fouls..then they seperated from us

 

[SGMVols]

He is owning Barnes

This is their 7th ranked win. I don’t know where some of you are getting this idea that they’re a tomato can.

 

[PKT_VOL]

Honestly, it quite impressive that we are only down 8.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

Terrible coaching by Barnes. Whatever. Kentucky has our number.

 

[Volnbeers]

I’m ready for a new philosophical approach to the game of college basketball

 

[JMSqb11]

How Barnes hasn’t beaten into these guys’ heads to run the guys off the 3 line is beyond me. Screen, switch, give space, 3 pointer has been Kentucky’s MO

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

This team just cant handle pressure man

 

[Doctrippin]

probably lost our 1 seed tonight

 

[SicEmSmokey33]

Swept by Pope

 

[whobethis16]

Barnes will still not go out and recruit any shooters. He got lucky with DK

Don't say that, BTO will throw out how Lanier has more 3s this season than Lofton in his senior year

 

[pasadenavol]

Barnes should've called a TO about 2 mins ago. Confusing...

 

[utVolFanInVA]

Rinse and repeat. ****** offense leads to another loss and TN's vaunted D gives up 50% FG/50% 3-pt. Seen this way too often this year.

 

[The Tall Gguy]

Another heartbreaking loss. How can we forget to play defense?

 

[Other_Guy]

How does Barnes have a winning record against Oates and Cal but gets swept by the new guy lol

 

[Doctrippin]

How Barnes hasn’t beaten into these guys’ heads to run the guys off the 3 line is beyond me. Screen, switch, give space, 3 pointer has been Kentucky’s MO

We couldn't hit ours. that was the problem

 

[tnvols72]

This team isn’t going anywhere in March. Offense is too intermittent.

Yea if you cant shoot you wont go too far and this team cant shoot period

 

[RAVOL]

Defense Defense Defense need stops these last 3+mns and get some points and leave with W. In CHRIST Alone

Well Vols didn't listen to me. No Defense to end game. Comes down to shooting and Ky just much better than us. Shooting is letting us down again. In CHRIST Alone

 

[AthensVol2007]

This game falls on Gainey and Lanier for out right awful.. And on Barnes and the staff for having a game plan of leaving 3 point shooters wide open

Our mid-major transfer shooters:
6-21 (0-8 3’s)

 

[Dergibvol]

Great job using those time outs down the stretch, Rick

He loves taking them to the locker room
