The basketvols stink.

Yeah...they stink....only horrible teams play top 10 teams toe for toe. We have to walk away with a W there if we want to have the success we want in the NCAAs, but they don't stink.

All that space between Weezy and the basket and he chooses to shoot a 3.....man!

Excuse my last post...im just mad...it was a great game... Purdue desrves all the credit...real tough game....go vols

Now its time for the panic brigade to hit the nation.

Panic indicates a lot more passion than most have at this point in the season.

 

[volbeast33]

Good job guys!!! We will get them next time.

 

[Volfan_TrappedN_KY]

you realize they were #6 right?

Get in mod mode!

j/k.

 

[cbcollins]

Why does it always seem like we lose heartbreakers in the last seconds?

 

[GAVol]

Hi... Good to see everyone treating a one point loss to the #6 team in the country in a rational manner.

Yeah, it's a little over the top right about now.

Don't be mad at Wayne, be mad at Bruce. We had no play set up, Wayne took the only open look we got after Maze dribbled for 15 seconds. He did the smart thing fouling early and extending the game, but had nothing drawn up for when we got a chance to win. Stupid. Do not let your PG get trapped and not call a timeout. Set something up for Tyler inside who is money in those situations or let Scotty shoot. I know he was off tonight, but give him a chance to win a game early in the year because we need to have someone who can do it later, yet we do that. Going to be a long year if we play with our heads up our butts like we did the last two games. No defense, and couldn't shoot. Those are the two things we are suppose to be good at. FML.

If you're not with us, you're against us! I'm not satisfied with losing either, but let me put this into perspective: PURDUE IS RANKED 6th FOR A REASON! GO VOLS; ALL OTHERS GO AWAY!

 

[Heebs]

you HAVE to call the timeout there when we have 3 guys across the halfcourt line standing around with 9 seconds left. you HAVE TO

Hi... Good to see everyone treating a one point loss to the #6 team in the country in a rational manner.

exactly. its an early season loss to a top 10 team. Should/could we have won? yes. Atleast we're not losing our exhibition games like other teams.

 

[volger]

Does anyone on this team have a concept of "backdoor?" you could drive a truck through the paint. No one made an attempt to get by one guy to get inside for an easier shot.

 

[vols5790]

We have to learn how to play better at the end of games.

 

[DownTheField]

i'm exhausted and need therapy

 

[Jocyvol]

This loss rests squarely on the shoulders of CBP folks. Enuff said.

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

Saying this team stinks is stupid. This will be good lesson for season. We will be very good this year

2 bad 3 pt attempts killed us. Player brain lapses. Purdue has a good team. They aren't ranked #6 for nothing. We should have one that one

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Yes, a one point loss to the number 6 team is pathetic. :ermm: For those of you who started watching basketball 2 weeks ago, please educate yourselves on the past.

Except we've seen this exact same situation with the same results way too many times now.

You'd think someone on this team would learn something by now.

Hi... Good to see everyone treating a one point loss to the #6 team in the country in a rational manner.

There are no moral victories if you're supposed to be a top 10 team.

 

[hmanvolfan]

Yeah...they stink....only horrible teams play top 10 teams toe for toe. We have to walk away with a W there if we want to have the success we want in the NCAAs, but they don't stink.

It's a joke. Relax a little, not the time for "panic"...

 

[VolGal423]

wonder what this will do to our ranking? anyone? anyone?

Purdue is good but games like this is why i do not look forward to March madness.

I know Chism isn't Kobe Bryant, but it was a wide open look...
