Really?? 2.5 to go ..... really?? Up by 3 & we have the ball.

Need to see another replay. That was close.

Eventually determined to have been pinned prior to the ball touching the back board. HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!

[VolnJC]

Shame there had to be a winner but Bama pulled it out vs KY...who is now 5-10

 

[LSG410EC83]

Go look at his stats, he needs to play better but huge 2

I realize that, but besides Pons, who has really played to their potential.

 

[1985Vols]

Well, all you Vescovi haters, what now.

He needs to get better

 

[feathersax]

Vols win by a hair 56-53. Another ugly game but a W.

 

[VolinMichigan]

Good for Keon making the plays necessary to pull this one out.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Whew... Omg

 

[GBO18]

Win Saturday and we are back on track. Hopefully we shoot wayyyyyy better. Kansas is very beatable.

 

[RiverVol]

eeked that one out.

 

[HoptownVol]

Golf clap.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Well it's a W.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

2.5 sec

They changed the clock back after I had posted..

 

[Border Vol]

BASKETVOLS WIN!

 

[87&91ALUM]

Dang. Needed that one. Whew. Work harder Vols. Springer may have been the difference.

 

[chuckiepoo]

Vescovi hurts more than helps

Only experienced pg we got. Come Kennedy quickly...

 

[Hbg]

Bad, just plain bad.

 

[Volfan2012]

At least it is a win was looking like a loss a few times. Some really great plays by Johnson that last few minutes.

 

[sportsnut624]

Does anyone else feel like we shoot worse at home than on the road? I haven’t looked at the numbers but just feels that way to me. I’ve wondered if the empty stadium has something to do with it but again I haven’t looked at the numbers to know if there really is a difference or if it’s just in my head.

 

[DownTheField]

W

 

[vavolfan6]

It wasn't pretty, but it Feels good to be back in the win column. Hopefully that's a monkey off our back and if we can pull off a win against Kansas it may boost our confidence to start playing with the swag we had at the beginning of the season.

 

[chuckiepoo]

Whew! We slide by the skin of our teeth. This team needs to improve in ao
lot of areas. I say it’s time to cut the freshmen loose And pick up the pace. This half court offense isn’t going to get it

Let it fly boyz...

 

[MoCo_Vol]

I'll take it, Santi's effort rebounding and being clutch at the line was the difference.

Was also happy to see Barnes have his guys drive to the rim to force the issue those last few possessions.

 

[1985Vols]

Win Saturday and we are back on track. Hopefully we shoot wayyyyyy better. Kansas is very beatable.

Hopefully Kansas plays a zone defense. We are really struggling with teams that get in our grille
