The Official #4 Tennessee vs #11 Auburn Game Thread, Wednesday 7pm/ESPN2

Commercial break. We are getting called for fouls and Auburn is not. Worse, except for connect we have no offense. Missing foul shots to.
 
Aidoo and Tobe don’t have an answer for Broome. Broome was always going to get his points, but it’s been too easy this half. That combined with missing free throws and turning the ball over is a recipe for getting beat.
 
Better offense and reliable defense

That’s Tennessee needs for a successful comeback in the 2nd half.
 
This game is shattering my confidence for March a bit. We just can’t deal with teams that are good defensively and have a physical big man, it’s just our kryptonite this year. Hopefully Knecht can just go crazy and carry us through this one.
 
Said it many times before and I’ll say it again… I just don’t get why Vescovi plays so many minutes. It just feels like for every 1 time during a game he makes a good play, there are 5–7 times his lack of athleticism cost the team. That last play is a good example. He was given the ball in the corner with a little space. But he has such a slow release and isn’t athletic enough to get his shot off. So he ends up trapped and throws the ball away. That was a huge turnover. He’s just not a good player.

Pearl has been barking at the refs. It's paying off. Meanwhile they can't miss and we're playing dumb..
 
It's all about match ups. You get the wrong one early in the tournament and we're going home. It's just how it is. You can't tell me I'm wrong on how consistent we are. Look at tonight. Look at Saturday. Look at USCe game. Look at UK game. We looked great and awesome in 2 of those and are absolute garbage in other 2. If Mizzou would have been just about any other team in the leauge we probably drop that one on the road.
That’s college basketball though. Only 3 teams have really excelled, and they’ve won squeakers, too.
 
This team just doesn’t seem to be mentally prepared to put together longer winning streaks. They keep having these stinkers in between a few good games which will be a concern in the tournament

You just described every single team in division one this year.
