The official TN vs LSU BBall game thread

I hope he is pissed...this was a loss in my book. There is no way we overlook and not show up to play against another team this season.

A road conference win is a loss in your book? You must not sell many books then

I don't think I would look past the Arkansas game in retrospective of having to play Memphis and Vandy on the road. LSU almost been Tennessee today, and Kentucky beat them a couple of weeks ago, Florida played them tough for about 30 minutes of the game. I would not look past Arkansas.

You will have to forgive him. It was Youth speaking.

A win is a win!! 2 teams in the top 10 couldnt do that today!!!

Hey XtennesseeX would Buzz have made that substitution to put it J. Smith?
Your the man Brucey

The comment I made was before the substitution took place. I wasn't questioning Bruce Pearl's coaching ability. Just saying it looked at times like Buzz gave this team the pregame speech.

I'll take a win any day though.

:good!: Can I get a woot-woot?

 

[VolDad]

Woot - Woot!!!

Nice backup.

w00t! :w00t:

 

[HawaiiVol]

just to give an idea of how bad the game was, ESPN only showed the last few plays.

 

[jblank]

Chism 0-4
Ramar 1-2
Duke 2-4
Prince 1-5

Yeah that's horrible free throw shooting. :no:

No, it's EMBARRASSING free throw shooting and championship teams don't do that.

Why we can't shoot free throws since Pearl arrived is beyond me.....is it not being emphasized enough?

 

[General Jack]

We've shot well in a few games, we're just really really inconsistent. Especially Ramar, Chism and Prince. JuJuan, T Smith and Lofton are our only consistently good FT shooters. Even Howell has his struggles.

This ugly game is being replayed on CSS right now. It is 37-25 with 15:28 left in the game. That means we only score 10 points in the last 15:28.

 

[volley]

11:00 left now. 10 possessions and 4 missed free throws, and we still have 37 points.

 

[HawaiiVol]

is it really necessary to relive that horror? We won, just let it die.

 

[wombat7477]

Not to make excuses (okay, that's exactly what I'm about to do)...

LSU had nothing to lose, plus they had that 'let's rally around the intern and get him a good start' attitude.

Tennessee had every reason to be overconfident. They seemed lackadaisical and lazy on offense.

Yet somehow it's still a win. Count your blessings and move on.

It's like the USC/Stanford game in football. If USC just hangs on and wins that game, no matter how ugly and inexcusable for it to even be close, they're playing for a national title.

I was working late last night and when I saw the score on ESPN, I was wow that was close, and so few points scored. What happened?

LSU wanted to win also and we sorta forgot about that.
