The Official #11 Tennessee vs. Tennessee Tech Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, SEC Network+

[Creeker]

Glad Santi got one. But do we have anything that can get us a look inside?

 

[Voljayton]

Son showed up and has the espn plus on his phone and I’m streaming it now - thanks

Glad you got it!

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Key is a baller.

 

[vol94]

This is horrible basketball. What game was it last year where both teams were ice cold?

This has always been our Achilles heel. Have to score other ways beyond the three. Uros still plays timid after a rebound.

 

[Big Orange#1]

Tyreke Key was such a pickup. We would be in bad shape without him

 

[ItchyVols]

When I select to watch on sec network it says I’m not authorized to play this content?

damn dude, I wish I could help further. It may be “blacked out” in your area? I’m in New Jersey- but when I went on the ESPN app, selected “watch” and selected Tennessee game , it had to check my location before allowing me to watch.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

Hopefully this is just sleep walking through a Monday night game against an awful Tennessee Tech game.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Those cold streaks gotta stop by Sec play

We said that last year.... They didnt.

Shoot me a PM. For some reason, I'm not able to send. Maybe I can reply.

9 straight misses then I get in and SV hits a 3 and Key free throws

 

[MoCo_Vol]

ORN has looked awful so far...

Uros is maddening. Heart of a champion, but so awkward and prone to make some of the most boneheaded plays possible.

First game though. Settle down and get these guys on the same page. The talent is obviously there, just not in sync.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

The cold shooting is one thing but for crying out loud stop with the silly, sloppy, lazy turnovers.

 

[walkenvol]

Wouldn’t want to be in the locker room at half

 

[ItchyVols]

you got it to work?

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

What a stupid play out of timeout

 

[vols1071]

Does Barnes not like looking to pentetrate it into the paint? It's one thing to pass the ball looking to get a shot but jeez we pass it around pretty excessively

 

[Voljayton]

Well this isn't going how I thought it would. Geez. We need to get it together on O.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

We've got 4 6'8" or taller bigs and playing with normally 2 of them on the court at the same time.

Need to see someone show a bit of an inside game.

 

[Creeker]

Good defense. Ugly offense that half. We had 7 steals and 3 blocks from on their 4 and 0. Yet, the turnover margin is only 9 to 7. Can’t shoot terribly and turn the ball over.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Ok let's blow them out second half, spread was like 33

 

[vols 30]

ORN has looked awful so far...

He's not alone

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

He's not alone

Yeah, almost like they are sleepwalking and not putting in the work on the court.

Barnes will adjust that mindset at the half.

 

[jmva1]

Love the energy from Phillips, i like that he’s being aggressive shooting. Hope as the year goes on he becomes more comfortable putting the ball on the floor. Would really open up our offense a lot if he’s able to

 

[Hurley Mooncalf]

I'd say Rick is going to blow a gasket at half time. Likely to see the team a little more focused in the 2nd half. If not, they will likely get a few extra miles this week at practice.
