Official Game Thread - SECT: Friday, 1pm (ESPN) vs. MSU

[Proud Army Wife]

After watching games where Knecht had to score out of his mind for a win , I knew Tn just did not have no shooters to help him. I was not sucked in because of us not having shooters. Stop him and you have a really good shot in beating Tn

Yes but we have also had some games when he didn’t shoot lights out that we won as well.

 

[barney]

not only can JJJ not score he also can't defend

 

[GBO18]

JJJ can’t guard anybody one on one. He too old.

 

[VFL1127]

Too late now Z

 

[theroyz71]

This better be a wake-up call for this team.

 

[Vol49er]

not only can JJJ not score he also can't defend

Well this is just stupid. For all his faults, he’s one of the best defenders in the country

 

[MoCo_Vol]

JJJ hasn't even slowed Matthews down that's been his guy most the game, he's 7 of 7 for 18 points, 8 rebounds.

JJJ has 0 points

 

[GAVol]

ZZ was AWOL for about 25 minutes. Now he can’t miss.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

DK can’t get it done by himself. Not enough dogs on this team. Only players with that dog in them are DK, ZZ, and Mashack.

I’m aware, just responding in hypotheticals and f that’s really Barne’s mindset.

 

[RudyVol]

Maybe UNC will lose too and Arizona get it lol

 

[Putbacks]

If Aidoo had ZZ’s fight and heart, MSU’s physicality would have some answers…

 

[Kicker82]

They will have a week to practice and get this out of their system but they almost had a week to get the Kentucky loss out and performed like this. I don't think it will help much.

 

[BleedOrange81]

Not having stability in James and Vescovi hurts this team way to often. Appreciate everything they have given to this team but im excited for what may come next year. They both act to afraid to shoot most of the time.

don’t thank them they have cost us. To be seniors and lay an egg like they have this season is embarrassing.

 

[BreatheUT]

This type of effort has been the staple of SV and JJJ career here. Excruciating offense at times. Now I remember the feeling last spring when I was excited some of the seniors were graduating.

 

[dhurt8955]

Santiago has all but disappeared from this team

 

[tnvols72]

Also think Mashack needs to eat up JJJ or Santi’s minutes next week. He’s provided good offense along with his defense in most of his opportunities this year

I think Barnes is too invested in those 2 to give their minutes up. He should have slowly worked in Car and Mashack throughout the year. But he ran with those 2

 

[Proud Army Wife]

This better be a wake-up call for this team.

I thought losing at home on senior day to KY no less would be it

 

[GBO18]

Well this is just stupid. For all his faults, he’s one of the best defenders in the country

Is he? Haha I must have missed him making the all defensive team.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I commented on the officiating early in the game and we’re still talking about it somehow. Who are you really mad at?

Nobody is forcing you to.

 

[tnvols72]

I think this team let the hype get to them

 

[Volstylexx]

JJJ hasn't even slowed Matthews down that's been his guy most the game, he's 7 of 7 for 18 points, 8 rebounds.

JJJ has 0 points

And most of the shots come after 28 good seconds of defense.

 

[Vol737]

We done got whooped today. Gracious.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

This better be a wake-up call for this team.

Wake up calls are for losers

 

[casetopia]

Tired of worrying about 1 or 2 seed. Give us the 2 seed rest up and let's roll!

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Next game Mississippi State will probably get boat raced too, that's what's annoying.
