The Official #17 Tennessee vs. Ole Miss Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, SEC Network

[Voljayton]

Phillips has to be the clumsiest player with the ball in his hands

Seems like any tap of the ball or arm and that ball is gone. Only looks solid with a wide open lane.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Time out...our ball..nice lead 4:00 left. If we can possess the ball without turning it over and hit free throws...we should take this one

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Great defense. Save the great offense for tomorrow.

 

[Namorto1]

We need some subs. Some of these guys look tired.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

OJ, buddy, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a single positive post on VN from you, other than DONG. Lighten up bud, enjoy it.

I'm a mean guy man! I get too wrapped up in it, especially basketball and golf. Played both of those younger at a high level.

 

[feathersax]

Vols up by 12 with 4 minutes remaining. OK, Tennessee... bury 'em.

 

[chuckb1448]

Mashack just needs to play D and should not be allowed to touch the ball on offense

He did hit a three earlier, he just needs to slow down on offense and concentrate

 

[The Dog]

12 point lead with 4 minutes left. Score right here and it's over, imo. Probably, over, anyway

12 points is nothing in basketball. Especially with how this team has performed in the final 5 minutes of basketball games this year. Game is not over yet.

 

[patrick]

Another miss.

2 minutes without a basket, and counting

 

[87&91ALUM]

another commercial...

Agree to disagree

 

[vols 30]

I wish he would. Another year of maturity. He can help us as long as he can control his emotions.

Agree

 

[tnvols72]

He did hit a three earlier, he just needs to slow down on offense and concentrate

more bad happens with the ball in his hands than good. But he can play some D

 

[DowntownVol]

I understand that Vescovi has to play 35+ minutes in a competitive game, but he's getting gassed late.

 

[chuckb1448]

12 point lead with 4 minutes left. Score right here and it's over, imo. Probably, over, anyway

Let's put the 6th string in and wrap it up

 

[mtvols]

Uros and Key need to come out. They bring nothing to the offense.

 

[Namorto1]

Our last handful of offensive possessions have been poor for a mature team.

 

[RAVOL]

6 straight possessions without basket

 

[87&91ALUM]

64-52 3:45

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

At least we timed our drought to coincide with theirs.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Layup!!! Oh my gosh…seriously???

 

[tnvols72]

LOL Phillips missing layups

 

[patrick]

ice ice baby, ice cold that is

 

[87&91ALUM]

Great D and a rebound
