The Official #18 Tennessee @ Texas Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ESPN

[TheMookieMonster]

Here’s the good news. We have played like toddlers on offense so far and it’s a 1-point game and we have the ball.

Figure out what you’re doing wrong and this game is winnable. Just take good shots, and you don’t always have to make an extra pass.

 

[Rockytoprowdy]

Feels like they’ve dominated the first 8 min… we’re down 1.

 

[Switch 625]

First team to 15 wins.

 

[chuckb1448]

Offensive foul I reckon! Heck... Texas #5 was shoving Chandler out front too lol

 

[jbr82]

It feels like a safe bet to say that if we play a defense that has any sort of pulse our offense doesn’t know how to beat it.

They panic

 

[Namorto1]

It’s amazing we are only down by a point. We can’t be passive offensively.

 

[Bigorange123]

for who took the over. So far anyway… Vols still win…

 

[Cartervol]

They don't do any ball screening. Just randomly run around and jack up bad 3 point shots..

 

[cobbwebb0710]

So does Euro step just mean he walked and they don’t call it?

Yeah they replayed the Texas player traveling but not Vescovi’s sweet dime on the other end.
GBO!!

 

[amaralfan1]

Texas is the best scoring D in the league guys. The Vols offense isn't great, but we are only down one point. Have some faith.

 

[Mr French]

If the vols ever hit the over this year there will be millionaires lol.

 

[sechamp2012]

They have a veteran team bet their average age is one highest in NCAA. Lot of portal guys

 

[GBO18]

Could be Texas Tech part deux.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Yep; there was an article this morning on ESPN about him donating a portion of his NIL money to cancer research.

Thats pretty cool.

 

[The Dog]

Texas is coached by Beard and they play the exact same defense as Texas Tech. If you all didn't expect this kind of game, then I have to think your basketball knowledge is lacking

Make shots. Don’t get wreckless

We have the potential but we either take bad shots, get sloppy with the ball, or have the wrong people shooting from the outside. It’s basically who we are. If we ever get hot we can beat anyone but that also means we can lose to mediocre teams if we’re ice cold. We haven’t had a bad loss yet though. Our offense sure is bad though so far tonight.

Ifs and butts - candy and nuts - merry Christmas.

This is our team. Good bad and indifferent.

Half way through through the season, this is the Vols. Just offensively challenged but play good defense. Not fun to watch.

Hope we win more than we lose.

The offensive philosophy is flawed. I don't like it at all.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Could be Texas Tech part deux.

I was afraid it would be. Beard coached at Tech so i figured both teams would have similar styles.

 

[Mr French]

GBO!!

Two steps are allowed... that euro step wasn't a travel.

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

And-one opportunity for Nkamhoua; if he could do this all the time...

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

As screwy as it , we go in front.

 

[Volprofch05]

A competent play from Olivier!

 

[chuckb1448]

Nice move Oliver

 

[GBO18]

That was pretty ON.
