If you just complained about play sure. But when you make sure to point out that you think Key flopped, when you claim ON wasn't pushed when we all saw he was. Seems suspicious

If we're playing poorly yet lead a top 25 team on the road while down two starters, isn't that even better evidence we dont suck?

This is bad basketball across the board. Very ugly to watch. Just win though, don’t matter if you get the W. But not our best … by far

That was a horrible stretch of play partially redeemed by the bucket at the end. Being in the 1-1 is a liability for this team. It allows the other team to effectively prevent us from scoring and go on mini runs. The quick three by ZZ in a roaring arena is a horrible decision.

College basketball needs quarters and a 6th foul badly. These games continually turn into free throw contests with most of the time the best players on the bench. It’s just not a good product right now

Yankee doesn’t know sports. Good thread starter but not smart about sports.

Their D is physical but few of these turnovers are just concentration. All tied up. In CHRIST Alone

Late to watching the game...is Plav suspended for the first half?! Why not play? Have to think Barnes may have disciplined him for Tshiebwe comments.

Sure I agree we're not playing our best (without some real important players) but we dont suck. I think being ranked #2 for that week has given alot of people crazy expectations. This is a good, not great team, but because many expect great, they say good sucks.

No way we should be losing to such a small team. I think we would be 20+ favorites over A&M if we were at full strength.

This officiating crew completely killed the flow of the game when they made it a foul fest with 4+ reviews all jammed in. That half took almost an hour. Clean up the turnovers and I think we'll be in good position.

Weird moment happened where Scov threw it in to him but it was nowhere near him, turnover. Dead ball not long after and Scov and Uros got in one another's faces. Clearly a miscommunication. Uros hasn't been in since

It’s unfortunate to into the half tied. You outplayed A&M most of the half and somehow ended up not having the lead. Maddening.

We just look like a low basketball IQ team. Ziegler with 4 first half turnovers. Vescovi had a couple of bad turnovers as well. And again - free throws. 4-7 with two of those misses being front ends. Basically 4-9. Meanwhile A&M is 10-12. Free throws, free throws, free throws.

Getting Mashack and Aidoo back should help us on the defensive end in the second half. Throw Mashack on Taylor and see if we can keep him in check. Gotta cut out the dumb turnovers and hope we can keep the game an ugly slug fest.

UT started the half with the intensity to win the game, but then faded. The Vols look like a deer in the headlights when their opponent starts playing harder, as if UT doesn't have the ability to match intensity when they need to.

As far as shooting tonight, better than the UK first half, but still need improvement. Is it just me, or did Santi turn down a few open shots to drive and kick? Seems confusing to me.

Also, not sure, but it looks like they are not passing it to Key when he is open sometimes. I know he has been cold lately, but he can get hot and that could be the 'key' to a win.
