Official Tennessee vs. Oakland game thread

[VolFromNashville]

If they double Hopson, that opens Harris or Cam up. It's always good to have other players on the team that can step up

 

[PoochPunt3rdDown]

Hopson is 0-4 FGs, 2-2 FTs.... 2 pts, 2 rebs, 1 asst

Pitt focused on Harris. He didn't have great stats. Oakland is focusing on Hopson. Same story. We're still up by 11.

That's the great thing about having a deep team

Looks like it was a gamble of a game plan that hasn't paid dividends yet.

I love it. I really think it speaks to the talent of this team. Cover one of our guys hard? That's ok we've got 4 others that are play makers.

Benson is a gamer.

Oakland is committed to stopping Scotty which is leading to lay ups and open shots for everyone else. This is a good thing to see.

 

[zehr27]

So the guy that made the shot off of the offense rebound at the end of the half was suspended until we started to build a lead? Did I hear that right?

Hopson has been progressing naturally for a late-to-middle first rounder. He was over-hyped coming out of high school. I think it hurt him more than we'll ever know. But being the man for this team and having Tobias has obviously helped him. The rest of this game and the rest of the season are full of hope and promise for him and I'm sure he's feeling that for the first time in Orange.

GO VOLS!

I always felt bad for him for all the pressure that was put on him. I think the same thing about Renaldo. They were so hyped and couldn't live up to the hype.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Really?

I was waiting on someone to do it.

Damnit! Where's Tyler Smith!

Good ole Kampe at his finest.

Oakland has played awesome and basically hit all their shots, and we are still up 11. We're goooood.

 

[RikidyBones]

Really?

Omg.... His computer is on fire.

We looked sluggish early and a little dumbfounded. We've turned it around now and are leading at the half by 11. Hopson has been unproductive due to Oakland focusing on him a lot. Harris and Cam have really stepped up.

The Oakland coach pulled one of his players out of suspension before the half in order to try to get something going. :clapping::glare:
