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

[OlRockyTop]

Anyone who didn’t expect this hasn’t been paying attention

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

I’m going to give it a day or two to sink in, but this is completely ridiculous. Glad we made it and the ride we have been on this year, but at some point when can we expect more?

Hope the NCAA loves their Juwan Howard redemption tour on their way to the Coach K one last final four/championship.

 

[Creeker]

Well this one truly is on Barnes. It honestly didn’t look like we even had a plan today.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

F these refs

Refs had nothing to do with this collapse.

 

[Putbacks]

Chandler was fouled! It is on film!

 

[lilesrt]

We don’t get respect because we don’t win when it counts. We should all remember this next season. Big fat goose egg.

 

[gr82batnvol]

So much for being under seeded

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Barnes isn’t going anywhere but he will never get us far in the tournament.

I disagree; there’s a lout of talent/skill/perseverance that comes into play during the tournament, but a touch of luck. Frank Martin made the Final Four, to be clear.

 

[Other_Guy]

These refs are 1000% Michigan fans.

 

[LaserRocketArm]

Pathetic

 

[VFL1127]

Same story every year

 

[hardyemt_p]

TN gonna be TN. Cold shooting from 3. We have never beat Michigan in the tournament and the streak continues. 0-3. Good season for sure but could have been a great one. GBO

 

[GBO18]

Disappointing season. Good game Chandler.

 

[YankeeVol]

Lost to a Michigan team who should have never been in the tourney...now they are playing with house money and eon because of it..they had no pressure

And have a HC who can actually coach the game…

 

[Namorto1]

Well a game we should have won. Fell apart the last 7 minutes and couldn’t buy a 3 pointer. Still a great year but disappointing NCAA tournament again. Looks like SEC was overrated.

 

[FlVols]

Crap. We sucked

 

[patrick]

Regular season Rick.

I will never again believe that he will ever get it done in the NCAA Tournament.

 

[tnvols72]

Tn 3s killed them

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Final Four talent. First Four results.

 

[Vols All Day]

Barnes has to find a true three level scorer this summer. We need someone that isn’t scared of the big moments and wants the ball.

 

[vanillagorilla]

Oh well. It's the same thing year after year.

 

[johnboyhunter]

News flash . Barnes is not the blame for 12.5% from the 3 line when we have been in the high 30s.

Hate this but I also hate all the Barnes haters .

 

[johnfnkelly]

$5m a year. The Rick Barnes special !!!!!!!

 

[UTK]

Absolute stupidity to lose to a NIT team in round 2. Cant make this **** up

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

I disagree; there’s a lout of talent/skill/perseverance that comes into play during the tournament, but a touch of luck. Frank Martin made the Final Four, to be clear.

Barnes didn’t make it with Kevin Durant. He will never make it far here
