The Official #10 @ #17 North Carolina Game Thread, 7:15 PM ET, ESPN

[Go47]

JJJ missed a bunny and caused a 3 point runout. Pathetic.

Very familiar

 

[GBO18]

Gainey going to shoot the next 5 times down the floor now that we got some mojo going?

 

[BradstarVols]

Tennessee is shooting 59%. NC is shooting 54%. Tennessee is down 16.

 

[BreatheUT]

Funny we miss a wide open 2ft shoot and they drain a 30ft three. Been like that all night

He looked hesitant or scared. It's puzzling. His issue is he doesn't have a good vertical.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

We’re shooting 60% from the field to 54% from UNC and getting drilled. Feels almost impossible. 3-point percentage is drastically different, so that explains it some, but still. Just a maddening performance.

 

[tnvols72]

Don’t understand at all why JJJ stopped 13 feet from the basket. No one stopped him,dumb play

He had a layup

 

[GBO18]

I haven’t watched much BBall in a couple years. Looks like the same team I saw then. New white dude is good.

White boy is fireeee

 

[Namorto1]

Knecht and JJJ has kept this team from having like 18 points

Yep, it is like everyone is watching them play. Our starting backcourt has 2 points.

 

[tnvols72]

Gainey going to shoot the next 5 times down the floor now that we got some mojo going?

Either that or ZZ will start jacking up 3s

 

[tev.sm]

Blaming this one on the coaching staff… don’t know why we’re overhelping on UNC driving to the basket. That’s what’s leading to the wide open 3s. Need to have them beat us with 1 on 1 defense.

Decided to play some 1 on 1 defense for this last stretch and cut the lead to 16. Should’ve been this way off the rip.

 

[volsarelife1]

Knecht is unbelievable at scoring!

 

[ColinS]

We’re shooting 60% from the field to 54% from UNC and getting drilled. Feels almost impossible. 3-point percentage is drastically different, so that explains it some, but still. Just a maddening performance.

Rebounding, turnovers, and they have more threes. It all adds up to a big lead.

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

Tennessee is shooting 59%. NC is shooting 54%. Tennessee is down 16.

Cute. Now do 3pt%

 

[vols1071]

Complaining about Knecht but yet Vescovi is missing and ZZ has been bad all year... Imagine how bad without Knecht we would be

 

[tnvols72]

Knecht or bust here lol

 

[BreatheUT]

We are almost too far behind.

 

[Vols All Day]

Yep, it is like everyone is watching them play. Our starting backcourt has 2 points.

Might be time to shake things up on the wing. Maybe bring SV off the bench.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

ZZ with some good defensive pressure creating that turnover.

 

[calban]

Wonder if a Barnes defense has ever yielded 100 points.

 

[T2Vol]

ZZZ and Vescovi have combined for 2 points on 4 total shots. Hard to understand why these guys can’t get involved in the offense this year.

 

[vols1071]

Knecht is keeping us in this game

 

[AthensVol2007]

We’re shooting 60% from the field to 54% from UNC and getting drilled. Feels almost impossible. 3-point percentage is drastically different, so that explains it some, but still. Just a maddening performance.

That and 10 pt differential at the FT line.

 

[Vol423]

Greta hustle but have waited wayyyy too late to start playing UT basketball

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Playing better, can’t let up or regress back to what we have done for the majority of this game.

 

[AthensVol2007]

There’s the phantom whistle to swing momentum back to UNC.
