Official Vols vs Memphis game thread

[TheThrill]

I think we're sitting pretty good. You know Lofton is going to hit a few big ones, and Memphis started cooling off right before the half. Bring it home fellas, we can be #1.

What a great half of basketball.

I concur. Lived up to the hype. Very exciting and Pearl was classic at the half.

 

[BigPapaVol]

dozier and dorsey's fouls were a big deal

 

[ut_vol_in_bama]

GREAT hustle on the boards.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Lets go Vols!!!!

 

[AllVols]

I hope we can figure out how to get Lofton involved

 

[General Jack]

We're gonna win this game. We haven't played especially well, other than Ramar, and to an extent, T Smith, and yet we are down by one. We are turning the ball over way more than usual - unforced TOs at that - and Lofton has 1 point.

Memphiz is goin' down tonight.

JP had no clue what was going on at the end of the half....you hold and take time off the clock with the last possession....and he had no clue how much time was left at the end

He has to get his head into the game...

GO VOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rock:

 

[NuclearVol]

We need to make a few points off of the few turnovers we have gotten. Then just settle down a bit.

I hope we can figure out how to get Lofton involved

I think it will even out if they call the fouls, C.Lo will get open

 

[hmanvolfan]

Your thoughts on the second half?

My thoughts are, if the Vols don't go into a lock down zone defense in the second half we will lose this game.

Best move of the night...Bruce on Erin! Way to go Bruce!!!:lolabove:

Bruce was jealous of the pre-game rendezvous b/t with Cal and Erin. He saw his shot and he took it.

 

[One of the Smith's]

I hope we can figure out how to get Lofton involved

they have been all OVER HIM...its ridiculus...i dunno if he'll be able too unless the refs call a foul or two on the guys guardin him...

If I was a Tiger fan I would be feeling very fortunate to be up 1. Memphis would have wiped the floor with 90% of the teams in the NCAA by shooting 8 3s in the first half.

 

[Fine Vol]

The longer the game the better chance we have. Look at how we never let them surmount a lead. WOW. BP for pres.

All of you guys are just jealous....:dance2:

 

[turn3]

Would have hreat to take the lead going into the half.

 

[AllVols]

Just had one of my Tarheel buddies hit me up on the text to tell me neither one of us should be ranked this high, both schools look bad.:whatever:

 

[TennTom]

We're in it guys......all we need is getting Lofton some good looks and it's ours

 

[BigPapaVol]

two man ball with lofton or jajuan and Tyler is unstoppable by Memphis. Stick with the zone on the other end. limit turnovers and we should have a great chance.

I also liked BWill's play. let's see more of him, less howell and prince.

Tell him the jealousy is oozing thru the phone

 

[Ellis39]

thats funny all the fans i know say that this was an excellent half of ball

 

[hatvol96]

I think Tennessee has to be exceptionally confident. Memphis made 8 threes, including ones by Taggart and Jeff Robinson, and we're down one. It's like Marvin Hagler when he survived the first two rounds against Tommy Hearns. We've been hit with the best they've got and are still standing.
