The Official #16 Tennessee @ #23 Arkansas Gam Thread, 4:00 PM ET, ESPN

[VolArmy74]

Been a horribly called game, but can’t turn the ball over 14 times and miss wide open shots and expect to win on the road.

About 8 of those turnovers are on bad calls or no calls by officials.

 

[orangejuice]

The worst part of the fouls is that it took all our best players out of the game

 

[Vol49er]

But he doesn't shoot

He can hit a wide open shot. Bailey literally does not do one thing at an average level

 

[cwbytruckers]

I’m so ready for Bob to retire or better yet be fired. I’m on a plane listening to the game and he sounded like a fan girl when Davis hit the 3. I don’t understand why he struggles so hard to be biased; in 23 years he hasn’t grasped the fact that he’s the PbP announcer for a specific team, he’s not a TV analyst setting the entire stage for everyone at home.

Ive never liked listening to him

 

[VFL1127]

Y'all can't honestly blame this on the refs as bad as its been. The offense has sucked!!

 

[patrick]

Arky player hammered both Aidoo arms.

 

[TrapVol]

Ready for them to come to tba, I think we’ll roll them

We will crush them.

 

[Lankykong]

Ark begging JJJ to shoot the 3 , they just leave him wide open and of course JJJ will throw it up

We would just have a no call foul leading to a TO if he decides not to take it

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

SUE.
the ****ing.
SEC.
I’m so tired of watching Tennessee sports getting screwed. If we don’t do anything about it—we are idiots that deserve it. This is disgraceful.

Which law office are you going to solicit to file this lawsuit and will there be a gofundme to help finance it?

 

[BreatheUT]

If Barnes does not blow up after reviewing the tape on this. It is hard to win with such uneven calls. Your good plays and drives turn into charges and bench time. It makes you passive.

 

[NEO]

This team gets bounced first 2 rounds.

Just no way your offense can be this bad and make it past any hot team. The defense is great but there is just no true threat to score.

 

[Caz]

Calls haven’t been good, but refs have nothing to do with us missing so many wide open shots. We played like crap and that’s the facts!

 

[Delmar]

We will bury this garbage ass team at TBA. The officials completely dominated this game. Like shocker, we're going to struggle with this lineup when our best players have been in foul trouble since the half.

. Agreed. We will wear them out when they come to Knoxville.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

The worst part of the fouls is that it took all our best players out of the game

Totally normal that that Williams loser drew 10 charges right refs??

 

[WhenUrVolUrVFL]

The refs have done this to us SO MANY times. They suck the confidence from us and give it to the other team.
they did it last year when we played Bama and bama used that to roll all the way through the SEC with an inferior team.

Someone needs to drop a law suit from Tennessee on the SEC. It has happened way too much. Millions of dollars.

 

[I4Vols]

Im Thinking this is over.

That was a mugging against Aidoo.

The foul was a hack and so is that charge a$$ ref

 

[turdherder11]

omg guys, give it a break. 8 straight sec wins and now the Barnes sucks chants start again. This game was being played with house money, and it’s still far from over.

House money house money , play like this and you go home in the 1st round. Late in the season and we should be over the offensive trash and bad zone D, not to mention the bad player rotations.

 

[Lankykong]

Man JJJ gets beat on defense a lot in transition

Trying not to get 4th foul, pretty sure

 

[Vol49er]

This team gets bounced first 2 rounds.

Just no way your offense can be this bad and make it past any hot team. The defense is great but there is just no true threat to score.

I dont think you pay very close attention to our basketball team

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

It is unsurmountabek

Sorry i fatfingered the texting, but ill go with it

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Hard to get into a rhythm with these whistles and all your guards having 4 fouls

 

[SGidds]

Have the refs just decided not to call any fouls on Arkansas this half?

 

[D3Athlete]

Officiating took us completely out of our offense. God awful charges take our drive ability effects our hall movement and spacing. Lead to the different lineups because of it, and now we have to play soft defense because of the fouls. It’s a damn shame that the impact it had on us and this game.

 

[JoAllan]

Shouldnt have been this late in the game before you stand up for your guys.

Yea Barns never stands up for his players

you think getting a tech is the only way to stand up for players?…….when your down 2 or 3 late in a game……..it’s probably not even standing up for them…….it’s letting your “own” emotions get the better……after preaching to the kids “not” to let their get the best of them.

I understand sometimes you might need to……not down by 3 late in the game……maybe in the first half, maybe once your down too much……not then at all.

 

[golfballs]

Sure Fayetteville is a tough place to play with the refs are related to the players
