Official Tennessee vs. Oakland game thread

[Midfielder10]

It sucks they only let unbeaten teams in the tourney.

You cant beat Oakland you ain't gonna beat anyone in the tourney.

 

[VOLNBAMA]

Uhm...hope we don't play Oakland in the Elite 8. I'm convinced this team could win it all.

USC last year was 100x worse

With about 5 minutes to go I said "this is where big time players should step up" Scotty then proceeded to dribble the ball off his foot out of bounds.

 

[UTK]

People, it's one loss....it's not the end of the world my God....:loco:

to...OAKLAND. Not even OAKLAND Cali. Where the **** is OAKLAND in MI?

 

[emainvol]

Leaning that way as well....the team seemed flat and let too many big runs. Coaching should have nipped that.

It's ridiculous. You can pretty much count on one or two of these games every single year.

 

[UTvol53]

It sucks, but Oakland is a good team. Theyre 5-5 but look at their schedule. Illinois, Purdue, Michigan St, Ohio St, Tennessee. It was bound to happen. Rather it happen now then in February or March

Oh give me a break. Dude just owned the #3 team in the country on the road. He is allowed to have a young team lose a game or two.

 

[tripper]

This game is on Pearl and his substitution pattern. Ridiculous.

No way. That was at USC. Everyone knows who USC is. This is stupid.

 

[GahLee]

Some of you need to get a grip...Oakland is not a bad team, the loss is not that big of a deal.

UT is still a very good team.

The season is not over.

 

[Goliver24]

I honestly thought so, too. I tend to think we'll be fine, but this is loss is going to look bad for a while, IMO.

It wont look bad at all. They lost to Michigan State by 1 point which is ranked higher than us. They also have one or two more games against top 25 teams....As long as they don't get blown out in either of those games, it won't look bad.

 

[RolandDeschain]

People calm down. One loss, it happens in college basketball.

 

[emainvol]

You cant beat Oakland you ain't gonna beat anyone in the tourney.

Oakland will be a tournament team, and they will give whoever they play in the first round fits. Not saying Tennessee shouldn't beat them, but this post is ridiculous.

Young?

Oh lord the sky is falling...Next thing you know there will be mass suicides over this loss LMAO...Get over it, Oakland is a tough battle tested team.

You cant beat Oakland you ain't gonna beat anyone in the tourney.

I'm glad Duke didn't get that memo when they lost to NC St. by 14.

 

[chavisut]

You cant beat Oakland you ain't gonna beat anyone in the tourney.

So a team that can beat Nova and Pitt, at a not so neutral court, can't get past the first round? Okay.

 

[TOP]

If anyone needs a human punching bag, come to so and so bar... You can punch my face in. What a disappointing loss. I won't feel your beatings because I will already be black out drunk.

 

[govols120]

No way. That was at USC. Everyone knows who USC is. This is stupid.

Or you could ignore the fact that USC (IIRC) barely even went .500 while Oakland will make the tourney as a 12 or 13.

 

[vol4eva]

Ugh....where are you Scotty?

 

[VOLNBAMA]

No way. That was at USC. Everyone knows who USC is. This is stupid.

This Oakland team would beat that team easily. UT didn't get off the bus for that game.

Do you guys take a basketball loss as hard as a football loss? I for one didn't use to but over the last two years they have begun to piss me off more and more. Just wondering out loud.

You don't know what you're talking about. Straight up.
