The Official #16 Tennessee @ Louisiana State Game Thread, 2:00 PM ET, ESPN

Fulk had several rebounds/tips. Offense has disappeared though. I thought Pons played good defense.

People need to get used to Fulk and Pons not scoring now that we changed our offense to basically be Springer/Johnson drives and ISO
We started the game with that and then the lineup got abused on defense and like no offensive rebounds

Ok, I missed the tip and was listening to Bob on the radio. No wonder I missed it.

Really wish we would try the 4 guard set vs an lsu team that has really bad transition defense.

We started that game with 4 guards

 

[Roustabout]

The women would challenge the men, much better chemistry on offense

Oh, it wouldn’t be close. I was just commenting on the un-athletic layup attempts.

 

[walkenvol]

How in the name of everything holy could that ref Miss the foul on Keon - it was right in front of him.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

SV can’t guard Smart (especially if allowed to walk every time) please adjust

Edit: double posted the beginning somehow

I would like to see us try it again, who had the 1 spot? SV?

Let’s blow out the LSU Will Wade cheaters in the second half.

 

[orangejuice]

Yea Springer should have had 6 additional foul shots than he had.

By tips I meant tips to others for rebounds, not actual baskets. Totally agree that his offense overall has been disappointing

JJJ, Anoskie and Bailey shoot layups like Lady Vol’s

 

[VolsSportsFan]

College BBall turning into street ball, refs are buying that culture NCAA letting it happen.

Do what? Did you not watch the UK game? They were calling fouls when we breathed on them.

 

[Lankykong]

Yeah, Vescovi. We only played it for a bit too, so it may work better in the second half adjustments.

 

[I4Vols]

Pons and Fulky have disappeared this yr!!

Fulk throwing that underneath pass out to a 3 shooter instead of aggressively going to the hoop for points and/or a foul is the sourness of this season

 

[LordVOLdemort]

I was joking, several ppl got real serious about this post, apparently.

 

[Volfan2012]

The work on the boards has been terrific just can't make a shot.

 

[turdherder11]

Hope we can put JJJ on Smart . I'm hard on that kid's offensive game but his RBs and D is good. Would like to see him at point also. Anyone but SV. Kid needs to worry about the 3 ball.

 

[walkenvol]

Why does Anosike still get some of ON’s minutes? Anosike misses layups whereas ON flushes it when close

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

LSU really only goes 5 deep and the refs didn’t call much which give teams a chance to rest. Maybe LSU’s 5 will get worn down first.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

LSU is giving us wide open perimeter shots. They want us to take those. If we’re not going to knock them down, Barnes has to make adjustments because this is a bad, bad defensive team and we only have 26 points.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Regardless of my meaning, you calling me stupid is insulting. Real tough, big guy. BET you wouldn’t say that to my face. Notice I use my real name while you hide behind a false identity

Oh ffs grow a pair.

And your reaction tells me you weren’t being sarcastic and now you’re butthurt because you were called for how stupid it was.

 

[kiddiedoc]

We got this, no one in foul trouble.
Well distributed minutes
Can’t keep shooting this bad whole game ODDS against it

You haven't been watching our games, then. We have had several poor-shooting complete games.

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Why does Anosike still get some of ON’s minutes? Anosike misses layups whereas ON flushes it when close

ON has also improved (though not to the extent we might have hoped) throughout his time on Rocky Top. Anosike has regressed, which I didn't think was possible after watching the first two games of the season yet here we are, and the idea of having him return on scholarship next fall is a nightmare.

 

[I4Vols]

The work on the boards has been terrific just can't make a shot.

a couple more offensive rebounds would have been nice

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Olivier came in and was giving Watford trouble, good sub there. Hopefully he can shut him down a bit. Also liked switching Springer on Smart to cool him down.

 

[turdherder11]

I hope, I would like to see us run more. Less slowing down and less half court offense. Run and gun with more guards. SV has got to STOP picking up his dribble.
