The Official #17 Tennessee vs. #25 Missouri Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, ESPN

[Volstylexx]

Too easy for MO.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

They called Mashack for less than East just got away with!

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Call a damn timeout Rick

 

[stevenrich2003]

Kee.... wow

 

[87&91ALUM]

48-50

 

[Caz]

They score at ease and we struggle for everything offensively.

 

[Switch 625]

They are getting anything they want in the paint and we are sloppy as hell with the ball.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

This game is pretty much a rugby scrum. Officials calling fouls it inconsistently and the physicality is getting insane.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Phillips makes FT

 

[GAVol]

They are letting both teams mug each other

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I know, right? It’s insane. This looks like rugby not basketball.

It’s really bad on both ends. The PGs are getting body shots all the way down the floor

It’s nuts how bad the officiating product is.

 

[Volstylexx]

Amazing how bear hugging a guy results in a turnover. I’m old enough to remember when that was a foul on Vescovi in the first half

They are letting both teams mug each other

Whoever plays Bama tomorrow is gonna be battered and bruised.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

They are letting both teams mug each other

Yup...gotta look after Bama....make sure their opponent is beaten up real good

 

[patrick]

Call a damn timeout Rick

you know that wont happen.

 

[ColinS]

Brown is a walking mismatch. Too quick for bigs, too big for quicks

 

[KB5252]

Uros unaware, easy two

 

[Ttucke11]

Damn uros gotta open his eyes.

 

[Kicker82]

The game looks too fast for Plav

 

[TheMookieMonster]

We can’t even bring the ball up the court without Mizzou pretty much mugging us.

 

[87&91ALUM]

I counted fifteen fouls by Zoo on UT in that twenty second possession. When we are on offense, zoo is in bar fight mode. Swinging arms, hand checks, body slams. Cmon refs!

 

[RAVOL]

It’s really bad on both ends. The PGs are getting body shots all the way down the floor

Next week it will be called. Mizz will have to adjust.

 

[Volstylexx]

Whoever plays Bama tomorrow is gonna be battered and bruised.

Which is why I’ve personally felt for a while now, that losing early and getting some rest is the best thing that can happen for us in March. Say we knock Bama off again tomorrow, does nothing for our seed line. We’re seed locked at a 3. Headed into next week with weak legs, no rest, and no ZZ is going to be a recipe for an early exit.
