The Official #3 Tennessee vs. Syracuse Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, ESPN

[Orangeslide]

They shot 56% first half. They missed a lot of free throws or this game would be closer. Offensive rebounds have helped us. Phillips so far has been the difference , he’s got 10, we lead by 10. Hopefully they will cool off in the 2nd half, and we will make a few 3s and pull away. Not sure they would be playing like this if their best guy was playing as the ball tends to stick in his hand. Seems like that always happen to us. Chaz and Igor need to get going. Their defense has bothered both of them.

Most points allowed in a half this year.

[87&91ALUM]

50-37. A lot of fouls. Phillips headed to the bench.

 

[Putbacks]

Refs came out 2nd half determined to keep Syracuse in this game whether they want to or not.

 

[Voltopia]

Two bad foul calls and an obvious travel. Do better, refs.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

Epic travel no call

 

[87&91ALUM]

Nice! Phillips in and dunked that one

 

[YankeeVol]

He barely touched him

 

[A-RodWiLks]

Why why why do we keep jacking 3s

 

[YankeeVol]

Chaz for 3!

 

[Voljayton]

Hip check? Wth is this announcer talkin about?

 

[87&91ALUM]

ESPN announcers pro Syracuse for sure

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

These announcers…Cade “hip checked” that guy? They must not watch much sports to have that take.

 

[87&91ALUM]

55-39….Lanier for three. Commercial break

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Why why why do we keep jacking 3s

Because we’re one of the best 3-point shooting teams in the country and one cold half isn’t going to stop us from shooting.
