The Official #8 Tennessee vs. #4 Florida Game Thread, 1:00 PM ET, ESPN

[TheMookieMonster]

Shooting wayyyy too many 3s right now.

Well, I would normally agree but we don’t really have any choice. Okpara isn’t really a post threat to score and Florida’s bigs have completely neutralized our ability to attack the rim with our guards.

 

[Pennheel]

Too many threes! Need to work it inside.

 

[whodeycin85]

Allot pushing underneath on rebounds... thought that was a foul

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Can’t miss at the rim today. Just can’t

 

[Caz]

We have nothing for these guys at this time. If only we had an inside game where we could open up the outside shots. FL is really good as much as it pains me to say

 

[SGMVols]

We've already jacked up 12 3s and running fast paced. Doing exactly what Florida wants us to be doing

We have to take a lot of threes because Florida isn’t letting us get anything at the rim.

 

[PandamoniumReigns]

It's like Florida has an entire team full of Johni Broomes.

 

[wmcovol]

I may be wrong but this grabbing & shoving on def won’t play well outside the SEC.

 

[Chaz-Vol]

No Lanier, this lineup with worst possible spacing. Big danger zone

Them not having Haugh and Chinyelu in TBA was the difference, we could work the inside when Condon was on the bench

 

[Spawn]

Florida is guarding us really well. It’s not always what you’re doing wrong. Sometimes it’s what the other team is doing right.

They are the best team in the country now that Auburn has been leaking oil for a couple of weeks.

Fouling us pretty well too

 

[Orangeslide]

Florida is way more physical than we are. We better turn up our intensity or it could get scary for us. They have the bench to play this way. Better bring it

 

[vol94]

Yes the point came off

Thanks

 

[vavolfan6]

0 points from our bigs has to change!

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

We're no match for them

 

[VolGee4]

Might need Chaz to play with 2 fouls.

He did for a couple of minutes. I think just getting rest.

 

[Pennheel]

This is true.

Maybe - if we don't hit a few, we're taking the loss.

They are, no doubt.

Yep. We need to make this a halfcourt game.

 

[vols 30]

These touch fouls (both ways) are taking away from the game. Hurts us more.

 

[Dougie_D]

did some players on FL not play when we beat them?

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Florida just too strong. No shame in that.

 

[Orangeslide]

Florida bigs is the difference. We have no answer right now. Phillips can’t impact them.

 

[TartanTurff]

Top shelf basketball has an inside component, got to solve for that pretty quickly
