We wouldn't be in this situation at the end of every single game if the officiating isn't so freaking lopsided.

Alabama gets to beat Tennessee without making a single basket in OT and Florida gets to shoot 22-10 free throws. There were two spans of 5 minutes or so where Florida didn't score a single field goal. It's a bunch of b.s. that teams are constantly in the game just because they get every single foul call. In the mean time, Tennessee players are all over the floor and the refs swallow their whistle.

This is some garbage. At least I'm about to get hammered. Later.

nine man rotation. 12 is too many. No one stays in the flow of the game. No more Mcbrick, please.

There were more than a few that went the other way. Especially towards the end.

The refs single handedly brought Florida back into the game.

At one point there was like 5 fouls against Tennessee in the span of minute during the second half.

We can blame everyone , coaches, players, and refs. But it falls on us if we shoot and play D better we win.

We will need to keep on shredding the hull with that iceberg that we've hit, but that looks like it will be no sweat for this team. If the season ended today, UT would be in. If the team keeps losing seemingly every close game that they had every opportunity to put away, then we are done.

Why we have lost 10 games is we suck at three pointers but when we are down 1. We think this is the best thing we can do. I am pissed off that CP couldn't notice this from his television notes. The announcers have. :cray:

If we dont miss the front end of a 1 and 1 we go to overtime. Cam Tatum choked and Goins just ****ed us on the final possession. Horrible coaching by Bruce. I'm really starting to doubt him.

First time I have doubted C Pearl too but unless he makes it to the real tournament and takes us back to glory. He should be fired for his lineups alone. He has taken our talent and driven it into the floor. Tobias Harris has had his worst games since Pearl took back the team..coincidence. I don't know just pissed thinking NIT bound. Anyone post Bruce's postgame comments would be great!

We shot better than them. Which means we made the necessary shots and stopped them somewhat. But they get TWELVE more attempts at scoring points than we did! Thats on the officiating and nothing else. Sure Cam missed a golden opportunity, but if we shoot 22 FT also we're not even in that situation.

We have now been outshot 60-20 at the line going back to Bama OT. YOU tell me how these kids are expected to overcome a 40 point opportunity discrepancy? Its amazing we've even been in these last 3 games.

The TO didn't beat us. The lineup change that intentionally pissed away an 8 point lead was the difference.

I definitely agree but once you've squandered our opportunities to capitalize and build a lead at least use a timeout to set up something instead of telling the team to do the best they can! That's apathetic in my book.

I know that..but we could also talk about every missed opportunity and are just playing sloppy basketball. The refs did not tell us to play 5 players who can't score while up 6. Our rotation and coaching has been a problem all season. We are more talented and better than that. You can only control yourself not others..ie officiating.. but yes it has been horrible most of the season.:peace2:

I agree the lineup was atrocious! Yet despite all that we were still in it and the FT undoubtedly were a huge factor. I would argue, like many, that if that lineup isn't out there we can escape despite the FT, and that stretch killed us.

He sounds like a UK fan after they lose.

Fact is both of these teams are maddening to watch for their fans. I spend more time yelling at the team instead of cheering for them.

As for Pearl, he should have called a TO. He should have been fired for lying to he NCAA. He's always been more sizzle than steak. That said I don't know who UT could go after if some fans here get their wish and Pearl gets canned.

Pearl put himself and the program in a terrible situation. And the program is starting to reap the benefits of it. You can't have this crap hanging around and not see the affects of it at some point. Hes done a solid job to this point, but I think he has run his course at UT.
