The Official #18 Tennessee vs. Ole Miss Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, SEC Network

[D3Athlete]

We have no alphas.

Same problem as last year. No dude to take over and impact the game when consistently needed. Lord I miss Grant and Admiral so much.

 

[marvin616]

How can a team have such a bad shooting night at home?

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

Dying by the 3
Playing really tight
Afraid to make mistake
Won’t pound it inside
Absolute crap effort from players and coaches offensively against a crap team that is very short handed.
At least we still have the Lady Vols

 

[1985Vols]

Lol, let it go.

He’s lazy.

Probably what Dean Smith thought about Michael Jordan too. Only person that could hold Jordan under 20 points a game was his college coach

 

[Caz]

This team plays with no swagger or confidence, let's be real. Jut a bunch of betas, and no alphas.

Same way last year. Had talent, but no swagger

 

[DC_Vol]

Put a body on Fagan after this possession.

 

[Voltopia]

Texas Tech is looking less and less like an aberration - Tennessee couldn't get any consistent action inside and just began jacking up junk threes until they shot themselves out of the game, and I think it got largely written off as "oh, the travel was rough, Colorado was unique, it took their legs." Maybe, maybe not, but Tennessee's on a week of rest and shooting really poorly. I hope they win it but it suggests a real limitation.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

Oh yeah, I’m sure it’s really affecting your life so much

The point is resources would clearly be better spent elsewhere….

 

[therealitytheory]

Ole Miss 10 of 18 from 3. wtf?

 

[87&91ALUM]

Announcers calling the game bizarre….yep

 

[GBO18]

Lol 30 of their 48pts are 3s.

 

[Bigorange123]

You can’t make this crap up

The fact you had to throw MJ in there as your argument is pathetic

 

[VolMarine1371]

Barnes pathetic man

How many shots has he missed or how many times has he turned the ball over? Remember if the players don’t execute the game plane then there’s not much Barnes can do. What was you saying when we throttled UNC and Arizona?

 

[Volstylexx]

Vols don’t deserve to win this game.and likely will not win this game.

I’ve never understood this type of statement. What constitutes not deserving to win? Ole miss has 22 turnovers. Do they “deserve to win?”

 

[1985Vols]

This team should be mad as HELL going into Baton Rouge if they lose this game.

I think I would prefer they go in happy

 

[utkCREW]

Chandler would play anywhere else and be a beast in my opinion

This.

 

[87&91ALUM]

45-48 3:38

 

[chuckb1448]

Their 14 is not that good, I think he's Fagan it tonight

 

[mr.checkerboards]

This team will squeak out a win and the nut huggers will be back in full force. Facts are this team really aint that good

 

[1985Vols]

Come on dude, the coach has to take responsibility

 

[GBO18]

Number 4 wants no part of the ball.

 

[casetopia]

Ole miss begging us to take the lead.
