Hes tired though and letting his man loose.

3 games of playing lock down defense in 5 days will do that.

 

[Paper_Towel]

oh my....

 

[volfanhill]

Can not let this get to a single digit lead

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

Did CM just look at the ref and say "thats bull"

 

[k-town_king]

Barton hot second half

 

[patrick]

oopppps yes........

 

[7thgroupvolfan]

My boy Antonio!!

 

[patrick]

[WarDamnVols]

Barton is getting hot

 

[tnvols72]

about time

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

Well at least its ticky tack both ways...

 

[Plecoptera]

Finally a touch foul goes against Mercer.

 

[Catbone]

Refs starting to dictate game

 

[tnvols72]

Tn is tired

 

[Titans4Vols]

Glad Barton is stepping up. We needed to take some of the pressure of McRae/give him some rest from being our only reliable outside shooter.

Refs trying to slow this game down.

This is our third game within a few day span so I'd say it is starting to set in, but if we can just hold on we have a week to rest. Come on guys.

a week off will kill our team they are in rhythm. i hope we can get it back but i don't see it happening.

 

[jhcrane14]

We are in fire from beyond the arch today.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

If gonna call everthing, get some ahole and elbow in there and make it count.

 

[DeadThree024]

The announcers are selling Mercer hard...but U.T. has extended the lead in the second half.

I agree, but as a coach you cannot allow officials to let the foul count influence the way they call the game. They should call the game as they see it.

 

[patrick]

i will take a 16 pt lead with 10 to go

 

[tennesseefan31]

It's so simple. When we throw the ball into the post on every possession, good things happen. We have great passing bigs. If they don't have a good look they find one for someone else.

 

[tnvols72]

go insideeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[YankeeVol]

Stokes is a man

 

[k-town_king]

Get it inside.
