The Official #10 Tennessee @ Kentucky Game Thread, 1:00 PM ET, CBS

Bad on both ends of the court. We'll have to play a good second half just to lose respectably.

 

[Caz]

This is as bad as I’ve ever seen getting your ass blown out by a bubble team after beating a number #1 team.

 

[Madscientistvol]

I’m not discounting them, but Kentucky is also down 2 players and they aren’t a good team. Again, like I said, I’m not saying I expect it to be easy but we’re down 20 points at half to a TERRIBLE Kentucky team. I expect that a team that just beat the #1 team at home should be better.

Criticism is deserved with this performance. I don’t know why anyone would be comfortable or okay with how this team looks with March right around the corner.

We aren’t going far in March, like many years we are so hot and cold, and we go cold at some of the worst times.

Poor Rick is befuddled.

 

[zaqhhh]

Just gotta remember that we are missing 2 of our guys in the starting rotation...UK winning doesn't mean they are better than us. It means they are healthier, playing at home in a must win environment.

They are missing 2 lol

 

[Dougie_D]

How does a team shoot this bad?

 

[VOLinAL]

We need to be emptying the bench to hopefully find a shooter somewhere. We arent winning this game so might as well try something different.

 

[amaralfan1]

KY has scored 8 points in 44 seconds... Nearly half our total in the first half.

 

[hUTch2002]

Thank you-lots to complain about but saying Barnes hasn’t had incredible success vs Cal is nonsensical, to keep it polite.

Ha! At first I read your post completely wrong and I thought you were saying the opposite of what you are. I’m with it now. I deleted what I was originally going to say.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

2023 Volnbeers: Still a trash poster.

And what was inaccurate about his post?

 

[BradstarVols]

Hard to watch. Tennessee just isn't a good offensive team.

 

[berryvol]

Barnes looks bewildered and exasperated.

I would be too if my guys were incapable of hitting anything

 

[Vols420]

Man Barnes and his team look average today

 

[turdherder11]

Missing open shots, free throws and at the rim isn’t on Barnes. Should a timeout should have happened earlier, lord yes. It doesn’t matter tho when can’t make open shots.

Doesn't use his TOs ever like he should. And will put out a turd of a lineup during games.

 

[C-south]

20 points now

Wasn’t talking about the half.

 

[brubaker]

EMBARRASSING. We are completely over-rated. Same old story in all the losses. Loss shooting percentage and can't shoot free throws.
Been a true fan since 1968 but this is trash !
Missed layups, everything.
Barnes should almost forfeit the game to send a message to the players

 

[vavolfan6]

They are missing 2 lol

100% of Kentucky fans are glad they are missing Wheeler.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

jeez this is just embarrassing. Can't hit a ft can't dunk can't layup

Forgot free throws …

 

[VolsFan-TX]

Was 21

We are breaking records today!

 

[hUTch2002]

We need to be emptying the bench to hopefully find a shooter somewhere. We arent winning this game so might as well try something different.

I’m with you. Put Edwards in, let’s see some of the out her guys. I don’t know if we find a shooter but let our main guys rest. This one isn’t happening.

 

[sechamp2012]

If Vescovi & ZZ are missing everything they shoot & even FTs Mashacj is your leading scorer LONG DAY..

 

[Voldog1998]

I’m out guys this game is over gonna go mulch the yard and change the oil in the lawnmower. Barnes doesn’t have a clue today and didn’t have this team prepared at all.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Mental problems when playing them.

 

[berryvol]

Cal has showed us who’s the Daddy this year is between he & Barnes. Completely outcoached him in Knox & thus far again today.

I’d rather lose to them twice and be a 3 seed then beat them twice and be on the bubble. Switch places with daddy if you like.

 

[casetopia]

If we can hold them scoreless in the 2nd half we might just have a chance.
