The Official #25 Tennessee @ Auburn Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN

Driveby game summary: They hit tough shots. We miss easy shots.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Outside of a few spurts here and there, this team gives the impression that they are just going through the motions. Possibly the most emotionless team I’ve ever seen at Tennessee.
GBO!!

Rick seems to be making this team miserable.

I think so too. Looks like hes taken all of the fun out it. Same thing holly did.

 

[Creeker]

I don’t think people realize just how bad Auburn is without Cooper. They aren’t even good with him, but they’re probably the worst team in the SEC without him. I think the “Pearl owns Barnes” narrative gets laid to rest today. We win, and cover.

Doesn’t look like this is going to be laid to rest.

 

[DownTheField]

This is hard to watch. Why can't this team find itself?

 

[Catbone]

Lol....losing by double digit to this s*** Auburn team.

Barnes' worst coaching job this season since getting here and it's not even close.

Ole miss was very bad. As was Florida. Vanderbilt was arguably as bad even with a win.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Pearl is a better basketball coach than Rick Barnes. Period.

Pearl also got us into this mess

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

this is pathetic. they are an embarrassment

Lmao...yeah a basketball program that has been ranked the entire year is an embarrassment. Gtfo.

 

[Lankykong]

This is probably the actual worst we’ve played. We easily would have won this game if we didn’t play like we didn’t know what a basketball was because we actually shot well on jumpshots. We need to just revert the offense back to what it was at the start of the year and deal with losing when we can’t shoot versus having no idea what to do

Most of our other blowouts we couldn’t shoot

 

[panhandlevol]

Very underachieving team. The one and done **** just doesn’t work at TN I guess

 

[VolsSportsFan]

In college sports, motivation matters a lot. He’s a great motivator

It helps when you play a team as broken as we are.

 

[VOLinAL]

So I havent been able to pay attention to the game much until now. I'm guessing it's the same stuff we have had for the last 2 months huh?

Embarrassment to you or to themselves?

It appears they are just ready to get the season over with

Cool, enjoy watching them in the tournament...wait

 

[RAVOL]

If the BasketVols completely collapse I wouldn't be surprised if Rick Barnes calls it quits.

Really. He has the best PG coming he has ever recruited and chance to coach and he had TJ Ford at Texas.

 

[tricitiesvolsfan]

Another pitiful game today. Losing to a team that was 5-10 in the conference is crazy. Unless the team can play all their games at TBA they will be out in the first weekend.

 

[backdoorcutvol]

After watching most of the second half, it’s not all on Fullerton, they won’t pass the ball to him, if they do it’s not a good pass. I think he post hard and wants the ball.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

2 minutes to go, down 10, and you get shot clock violation.......pathetic[/QUOTE

 

[VolBalls33]

Being a UT fan is so difficult sometimes. JFC. Auburn clearly wanted this game more. This season had so much promise. Sad.

 

[ColinS]

Driveby game summary: They hit tough shots. We miss easy shots.

Mainly, Auburn just keeps getting offensive rebounds and keeps shooting till they make one.

 

[PandamoniumReigns]

What ever happened to "Follow your shot"? I grew up with that as a fundamental part of the game.

Auburn wins because of rebounding. Specifically for offensive rebounds

 

[Teeboy]

started 10-1 and now they are a 500 team since. lol

Yeah...you can't give credit for the 10-1 start...only the .500 part. LOL. It all counts btw

 

[arkyvol]

Any bets on whether they get the score into single digits?

 

[RAVOL]

Fulkerson went from making a positive impact to making no impact and now hes making a negative impact.

Hard part no answer behind him.
