of keeping Kentucky in the game.

 

[CardassianVol]

Good half. Pearl's strategy is working. We have a shot.

 

[tayrorree]

I hate sec refs, they hate us

 

[GahLee]

I hate how ESPN is making us sound like a damn JV team...Dan and Dick seem to think we should be down by 40 right now.

 

[Heebs]

This was all I could ask...

Note: How many people actually expected Tennessee to be in the game this far?

The entire state of tennessee. Thats about it though...

 

[BasketVolKid]

seriously, is that the best shot we can get at the end of the half??

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Can't complain much, but Bobby what were you doing at the end of the half?

 

[orangetanker11]

1st half analysis...better than I expected.

These ticky-tack fouls are really pissing me off.

I predicted a 74-71 win for UT...but seriously didn't think it would happen.

 

[Soda]

Can't ask for a much better half...we playin on the road against a good team and the refs!

 

[hatvol96]

Couldn't have scripted it any better.

Not a bad idea. We haven't exactly been crashing the boards.

 

[KnoxVillain]

JP never gets a call, and always get s*** calls against him! Great half, we took a little air out of their sails.

Given the pressure, what would you have proposed? Try to get open and shoot... LOL

Maybe they watched the Vanderbilt game......

 

[orangegrass]

First half. One point down. First 6 minutes of the second half are criticle. Hit'em da mouth!

It was clear Maze was going to take it himself. Even if two guys defended him. Kind of surprised we didn't use a canned play or something at least to try and get an open look.

Surprisingly, not me; I am one of the most irrational fans on this board when it comes to UT and Pearl, but I really thought we were gonna get waxed in the first half. Maybe Saturday night won't suck as much as Thursday did....

Not me.....20 minute game now...Down 1 and they only have 30 points...Couldn't have asked for anything better, really...

 

[volsof09]

29-30 halftime.....Better than I thought.

 

[tnvols72]

dang, I was hoping Mcbee would foul out before the half.
Goins playing great and needs to be on the floor.
Worst call of the game is the charge on Chism.

If I were writing the script we would have made every shot and pulled down every rebound. So I beg to differ.
