The Official #5 Tennessee @ LSU Game Thread, 9:00 PM ET, SEC Network

[Just a VolinTears]

Meh game. Wins a win. Bama saturday!

 

[GAVol]

That was a terrible piece of officiating.

what is it with us getting these BS fouls called against lunging 3 point shooters?

 

[Creeker]

Go read the rule. And the announcers explained the call.

I know the rule, and if you have to jump forward into me to make your elbow make contact with my face, I wasn’t in your cylinder.

 

[Hoggervol]

Go read the rule. And the announcers explained the call.

Bradshaw and Hart make Jay Bilas look good.

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Alabama will be excited to come play in Knoxville

Tennessee will be just as excited and ready to play.

 

[GAVol]

It’s the right call. Mashack was rt on him so…. Mashack draws the foul and a painful jaw.

It was ridiculously bad. The “shooter” was obviously leaning in. The cylinder is supposed to be vertical.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

At least we won the game on the road. Again, play uninspired the first half and well enough the second half to win. I will take any win, regardless of how sloppy it is.

You better stay out of my cylinder!

 

[vavolfan6]

I wouldn't read much into this game. It was obvious that we didn't respect LSU one bit and didn't focus much on a gameplan. Barnes was rotating different lineups in the 1st half. We didn't really do anything specifically defensively to show we seriously gameplanned against them. We sleepwalked through this game. Not much energy or focus.

Yet we won on the road. We will look like our usual selves vs Bama.

Never seen a diagonal cylinder but whatever.

 

[vol94]

I know the rule, and if you have to jump forward into me to make your elbow make contact with my face, I wasn’t in your cylinder.

Well, the refs disagree after the review, so….

We won the game so all is well. Have a good night.

Go Vols!

 

[orchidvol]

LSU hit some luck shots, officials gave them a lot of help, but great to get the win on the road. Go Vols!

 

[Delmar]

Tennessee will be just as excited and ready to play.

Yep. One thing about Bama. They don’t like in-your-face defense and they are going to get that in spades Saturday.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Tennessee will be just as excited and ready to play.

Hopefully TN plays a whole lot better than what we saw tonight. Alabama will have us down by 20 at half if we aren’t fired up.

 

[vols 30]

Okpara.

6/6 FG
3/3 FT

15 points. 7 rebounds. 2 blocks

 

[WhenUrVolUrVFL]

We are as physical as anyone. If you want them to call everything, it will hurt us more than our opponents.

No we’re not Jay Bias Bilas. That’s nonsense he started when Duke got absolutely waxed by us in the tournament.

 

[GAVol]

Never seen a diagonal cylinder but whatever.

The comical part is that they looked at the monitor and changed the call. That was brutal.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Just get home & rested for Saturday men.

Gonna need a lot more energy that game. Also need to see some of these shooting slumps from deep by everyone but Chaz get figured out. Igor & Gainey specifically

 

[Namorto1]

We control our destiny. Hope we play our A game on Saturday.

 

[SmokeyLives]

Absolute trash call on Mashack. He was falling away from the shooter as the dang shooter jumped into him. Come on Rick raise some hell once in a while.

Turning off your scoring to run clock and turn the ball over as a result. Playing not to lose rather than staying aggressive.

Trash that game. Got the dub.

 

[Creeker]

Well, the refs disagree after the review, so….

We won the game so all is well. Have a good night.

Go Vols!

If that’s the how rule is called I spend the entire rest of the week at practice having my players leap forward 3 feet into defenders in preparation for bama if I’m Barnes.

What was really trash was whenever he said “15 in red”. We are ORANGE! Get it right!

Winning on the road isn't easy. I'll take it.

Dane Bradshaw agreed with the call

 

[ndubvols]

Was the lau player still behind the 3 point line when he shot? Was shocked he had 3 free throws.
