The Official #2 Tennessee @ Florida Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN2

[tnvols72]

TN deserves this loss

 

[OrangeBoro]

James has been a wallflower tonight…

Who?

 

[patrick]

This game is why Tennessee cannot be successful in NCAA tourney, the heralded defense did not get stops, shot selection and shooting % were terrible. This is a Florida team that had lost 9 games, and now have their signature win over #2 team in country. Tennessee could very well lose to Pearl again on Saturday.

And the Vols are going to have a few more losses.

 

[BreatheUT]

This is a bad loss. This is a LMAO game for our rivals. Early exit for this squad.

 

[87&91ALUM]

We are done….ugh…KENTUCKY then Florida…prob Alabama

 

[charleyhorse]

Sit James. Throwing up bricks

 

[Bollweevil]

Football school.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

This is what it's like having an elite basketball team. Every loss is a complete meltdown. We had a big win on Saturday against Texas and had a big letdown in this one. Frustrating, but it happens.

We've got that target on our backs every game, and if we don't bring our best effort, we can lose on any given night.

Thing is it’s year in and year out we have games like this one literally exactly like it in the NCAA tournament.

 

[tnvols72]

What scares me is Pearl will now come in and drill our eyes shut

not in Koxville they wont but they will at AU

 

[Russdaddy2027]

This team goes however JJJ and ZZ goes. JJJ wasn’t even here tonight. ZZ had flashed but not enough. Vols are either on fire or ice cold…

 

[Dadof2Vols]

Vescovi kills the team when he is timid about shooting. This team has to have outside shooting or they cannot win

 

[vavolfan6]

Great to be a Florida Gator chabt sounds wrong and doesn't flow

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

28% shooting

I'm more concerned that this offense isn't just off, it completely disappears. It's a problem that keep rearing it's ugly head.

 

[sechamp2012]

Kind of reminds me when Pearls team beat Memphis & was #1 then lost next to Vandy

 

[zaqhhh]

2nd straight game allowing 65 or more.

Auburn can score too

Barnes better wake everyone up and please don’t let Key see much more playing time. If a guard can’t shoot better than 30% he should never see the court

 

[Big Orange#1]

This is a bad loss.

Lost 3 out of 4 games now to average or worse teams. Not good

 

[white65]

I still don't understand how we lost. We had to stop one plYer who wasn't even good. And we didnt..

We got their best game, but our offense was terrible.

I always enjoy the chicken little posts about a game in February. Bad game but it is only one.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Pathetic basketball. We had no answer for castleton, and our offense was atrocious. It’s like we didn’t have a game plan.

 

[TennVols12]

LOL. Yeah, sure. Losing a 1 seed will help come March.

Yeah, wish we had more games to play before then

 

[JCP201]

Just felt like it was one of THOSE games tonight..

 

[mccrackb]

JJJ might be the worst shoote I’ve seen.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Later….

 

[OrangeInKy]

The officials are on par with the rest of SEC officiating in all sports. Hot garbage.

Lol

I still don't understand how we lost. We had to stop one plYer who wasn't even good. And we didnt..

Seems like you understand perfectly
