The Official #3 Tennessee vs. #11 Michigan NCAA Tournament Game Thread, 5:50 PM ET, CBS

[ButchPlz]

Why are we trying to play their game? We need to kill them with off-the-ball movement

Need more ball movement, more speed. They can't keep up. We're trying to beat them with Uros, which is going OK, but will that hold?

 

[VAVol85]

Dickinson is a beast. I hope he runs out of gas.

 

[LieutenantNeyland]

Pitiful officiating like all tournament and season really.

 

[RAVOL]

Lost the first 4mns again to start half.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

He wont

Hasnt needed to…

 

[Other_Guy]

Maybe early…but not later in the half. Held our own, I thought…,

He has double the points as both our guys combined.

 

[Volstylexx]

We need James to turn the switch back on. Make that open 3 and we go up 7. Instead it’s a transition 3 by Michigan and a play later they’re shooting FTs for the lead.

 

[GhostVol]

I forgot!!

There's a "just standing there" foul......

 

[RAVOL]

Dickinson is a beast. I hope he runs out of gas.

No doubt we are going to keep running bodies at him.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Cold from deep is keeping this one close.

 

[YankeeVol]

How was that a foul?

It wasn’t

 

[chuckiepoo]

Vescovi has to show up.

Howdy. Just Czech’d in. Howwwww’s it going?

 

[GBO18]

Not recovering quick enough on defense

 

[vols 30]

So that wasn’t a foul on Vesco.

And what the bell are we doing on offense.

Give Michigan some credit. Their defense has been pretty good so far, especially their guards

 

[patrick]

Going to have to best Michigan and the officials.

 

[tnvols72]

KC and ZZ needs to start driving the ball. Standing out there is doing nothing

 

[Other_Guy]

I forgot!!

There's a "just standing there" foul......

I thought the same. There was SO much contact in the 1st half and then they call that foul lol

 

[aWhiteLoftonChism]

Talking **** to a player who is 7/10 just doesn’t make sense to me.

Bad mojo!!!

 

[hUTch2002]

Keep it close and hope their big guy gets tired.

We have no answer for him and I don’t like that we’re trying to answer with our bigs.

 

[GoVolunteers]

We are still ok. Just have to weather this a little bit… regroup… and go on a big run.

 

[ButchPlz]

Pitiful officiating like all tournament and season really.

It's been bad this year. Way worse than I remember. Lots of whiffs on even basic stuff like out of bounds calls.

 

[chef3531]

Gotta finish our open looks, but the scouting report says to make us take mid range shots to beat us. Exactly what Michigan is doing

 

[Specs]

Grab smack and hold but as soon as a big guy catches a ball in the paint you can't even breathe on them. I get why the big 10 is such an inside game if this is how they are called.

 

[zaqhhh]

Oh Thank God

 

[Vols919]

B1G teams (especially Michigan, Wisconsin) play the most egregious hacking game. It's infuriating.
