The Official #1 Tennessee @ Texas Game Thread, 6:00 PM ET, ESPN

[MoCo_Vol]

It’s amazing how good Vegas is. Line 4.5. We win by 4.

And Texas didn’t foul at end to even give us a chance to make the line.

 

[Lurker]

Is this Ziegler’s worst season at UT?

No

 

[volsarelife1]

Okpara and Dubar are co players of the game to me. They both played aggressive and with intensity.

 

[BradstarVols]

My stream is still going

I was just calling it early expecting them to win

 

[vavolfan6]

I didn't get that at all. They had got it within 4 and ???

Its like they called a timeout to tell their players not to foul as not to let us get two more FT attempts and potentially beat the spread.

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

a grinding road win. I’ll take it.

Love all the folks crapping on ZZ…but now they happy with him.

Don’t think people were crapping on him. Once again, it’s okay for a fan to call out suspect play and then commend him for good play. It’s being objective.

I swear many on this board are one side or the other - objective commentary isn’t allowed.

 

[volmanNC]

Someone important for Texas must have bet the +5.5 cover..didn't even attempt to foul the last possession

the Texas coach.

 

[Col_Cathcart]

I complain about him enough that I should say that I thought Pat Adams and co called a good game.

 

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

Not sure why they didn’t foul at the end. I mean why not? If that was the right UT I would be ticked.
But I’ll take it.

Agreed but realistically when you are down 4 with 5 seconds to go, unless you steal the inbounds, you aren’t winning

Dubar MVP per Hamer & Bob

 

[508mikey]

Oh and this is for coach Terry.

Dubar was a stud this game- could be his coming out party.

 

[vols 30]

26 points 10 rebounds from the bench.
I'll take it

Been a Horns Down kinda weekend, eh?

 

[MoCo_Vol]

I complain about him enough that I should say that I thought Pat Adams and co called a good game.

Overall I would agree, probably 5 or so calls that could have gone differently but a well called game.

 

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

Everyone else (except ZZ at the end) seemed content with sleepwalking through another game.

Well aside from ZZ, Lanier, and Gainey, everyone shot pretty efficiently. That is encouraging to see against a talented team on the road.

 

[The Dog]

Every road win is a good win. Plus, it's a huge bounce back win on the ROAD. ZZ was huge as the heart and soul of this team, D-Stone was balling, Felix, also. I hate to admit it, but Florida is a problem, bad match-up, but the Vols will be fine.

I'm all for seeing more Stone if Igor isn't going to try and score any.

 

[SugarVols]

Dubar was a dog he needs more minutes

 

[OrangeInKy]

Ok All is good we win!!

Yes and every road win in this league is a big win. Should get a bit of a break with the next one.

 

[Stoerner Fumbles]

Overall I would agree, probably 5 or so calls that could have gone differently but a well called game.

I definitely prefer it when they let them play. Adams is terrible when they call a tight game.

 

[OrangeInKy]

I'm all for seeing more Stone if Igor isn't going to try and score any.

He caught a couple passes at the elbow and didn’t launch and I was disappointed. Both good looks.

 

[OrangeAllDay]

Bwahahhahahah they did for any Pat Adams’s Crew. I’ll say that was the best reffed Pat Adams’s crew I’ve ever seen and they still sucked
