Great offense and board work in the first half. Take away terrible officiating and we're up 20+. Solid solid 1st half.

Hit free throws and we're up 15. Good thing about this is that it shows we don't have to have KC ball out to win. That kids lucky he has ZZ who can take a lot of pressure off his shoulders.

Good half Vandy fortunate not down by 20.we missed more wide open looks than we have recently. Defense is simple do not leave shooters make them beat you making tough 2's. In CHRIST Alone

Nice first half but I’m totally baffled by Barnes rotation of post players. None of the young guys can get in any flow and build confidence if you only go in for 2 minutes then get pulled back out. Aidoo was active and looking good then gets yanked. Insert name we have seen it before. LET THEM PLAY

I just don’t see much coming from him this year. I hope I’m wrong, but from what I have seen he only shots well at home and he needs perfect shot opportunities.

I think he got injured and played 10 games last yr for Auburn. Maybe it was the media hype when he transferred to UT but I had higher expectations than what I’m seeing on the floor. I thought he was more athletic and more consistent.

Vandy made some tough shots to keep the difference under 20. Hopefully we come out and stomp on them in the first 5 minutes

Not sure their condition is at the same level as Fulky & James. Think he’s trying to rotate em more often so they keep fresh. He does it with Uros too when we’re pushing pace.

What I was thinking, one bad call when Pippen faded away from James but not really a badly called 1st half otherwise.

Bad call on James, and pipps traveled several times as well as getting stuffed for a jump ball that the refs no called.

SEC officials have to stop babying Scotty Pippin Jr. the way they do. The amount of whistles he draws on touch (even phantom) fouls is just out of hand compared to the beatings the same officials allow other players to take to earn a whistle. Then he walks, twice, on the same possession and gets away with it.

Barnes has some.good young players. It's a feeling out deal again..He's pushing the right buttons right now. I wouldn't be surprised to see Vandy make a game of it though. They're not playing bad.. Tennessee is just playing good right now..

Candy is going to be really bad once he’s gone.

Terrible officiating? We shot 19 FTs in the first half.

There were a few bad calls in Pippen's favor.
Also missed a couple where we got hit but overall it was solid....other than the Pippen bias.

JJJ didn't shoot very well but stayed aggressive on offense and played great defense. Encouraging that we lead by 12 even with missing a lot of open shots.

Stay disciplined, don’t go those pumps fakes and we should be able to hold them off this half. You would think Chandler shows up in 2nd half.

Chandler was out of control. Tough night. May not like the call but he was out of control.
