Aidoo doing the thing where he folds against solid opposing bigs again. 2 pts, 3 fouls.

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

lol ....neither of those last two fouls were actually fouls. Refs obviously trying to get Arkansas's bigs out so St John can actually make a layup

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Arky just ruined in terms of big man fouls.

What the hell has the World come too. Tennessee fans pulling for a John Calipari coached team.

Yes. In the tournament I'm almost always pulling for the upset to happen. Unless it involves Tennessee being upset.

I also can't help but like Cal for some reason. He's so arrogant and a slimy snake. But I like him

That, and I have him in my bracket for the upset

if St. John’s could just make layups they’d be winning this game easily

Damn

 

[VolCalls]

Aidoo is playing possessed.

He's got in some foul trouble but make no mistake he is influencing this game when in

Playing much better in the 2nd half. Gotta give props where it’s due.

 

[HeuperDrive]

Arky in complete control rn. Far from over but wow, whatever Cal said at halftime sure is working

He's actually in beast mode right now

 

[VolsSportsFan]

St. John's in trouble.

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Another weak call once Arky gets the big lead again to get Aidoo out. Same as last half. Refs trying hard to keep St John in this one.
This is the type of stuff I hate about college basketball.
Refs interjecting themselves into the game to sway it.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Ivisic is out, Aidoo coming in with 4 fouls. SJ's only chance is to go to the paint from here out

 

[99gator]

Tennessee's offense has been discussed and beaten to death on this board. I'll admit, I'm not crazy about it.

HOWEVER. HOWEVER. At least they have a player or two to go to as a quality option to go try to get a bucket. I've been amazed at watching some of these teams and they literally have no one to go to to get a bucket. All they have is transition, layups, trying to get a foul, or stick backs on offensive rebounds.

It's incredible to me.

It’s weird but I want to see Cal one round further than Kentucky.

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Here come the Johnnies...

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Yeah, it kills Kentucky when Cal wins. It will especially kill them if he goes further than them in this tournament.
That's enough right there for me to pull for him lol

 

[tev.sm]

Arkansas looks gassed.

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Man if Arkansas wins and Thiero comes back next week they are going to be trouble for that side of the bracket.

 

[FranklinVFL]

Refs are taking over the ARK vs STJ game.

 

[hUTch2002]

The refs have taken over the game.

Where ya'll been? They've been taking over this game.

Fouls have been called pretty even this half. At the moment at least Ark has 8 and St John’s has 7. They’re all just terrible calls. Who are these officials anyway?
