The Official #4 Tennessee vs. #9 Florida Atlantic NCAA Tournament Game Thread, 9:00 PM ET, TBS

[VAVol85]

FAU gassed.

Not used to a defense making them work so hard for every point.

 

[volfan__18]

Refs out for blood after we took out pour wittle dook

Every foul they have called has been a foul. Most stupid fouls too.

 

[Vols till I fall]

How we feeling vol nation

 

[General Jack]

FAU getting junk shots they won’t hit later

 

[Orangeblooded615]

Just hit our shots and we can pull away. We are getting easy shots.

 

[Larkin]

All of our fouls have been clear

Not arguing it but they should get evened out regardless

 

[NATHAN05]

Too many fouls, but really none questionable yet. Of we can keep exploiting the mismatches we may be able to put some doubt in their heads and win convincingly.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

We’re in way better shape. We can’t let them get in the bonus and free throw their way out.

Yeah we need to get out some of these dumb fouls. Both of Mashack’s were 40 feet from the basket. Just dumb fouls that have no excuse to be made.

 

[white65]

They're not calling touch fouls, we just have been aggressive.

I wish they'd call some of their walks though.

 

[ColinS]

Give Awaka all of Aidoo's minutes this game

Just because a guy gets off to a bad start his first few minutes. That's a little panicky

 

[tmack50]

FAU's game is throwing up 3s and hoping to get the offensive rebound.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

That should be tied up not foul

Maybe but he should have gotten the rebound. He didn't block out.

 

[vol94]

FAU is athletic with a ton of quickness.

We aren’t boxing out and Aidoo w a bad foul.

Santi- one foul
Mashack- two (done for the half most likely)
Uros- one foul
Aidoo- one foul
Any others? We need to slow down the tempo.

 

[vavolfan6]

Need more tenacity on the rebounding!

 

[volbound1700]

Just hit our shots and we can pull away. We are getting easy shots.

I feel like rebounding has been more of an issue than shooting so far.

 

[Larkin]

Larkinnnnnnnnnnn

what is up my brother??

Haven’t seen you in years!!!!!!!!

What’s up!!

 

[sechamp2012]

We’re clearly more talented than them.

Keep up the pressure

Yeah they have hit some end of shot clock desperation shots that look a bit lucky but they count. I just don’t think they can Keep up, I may be wrong.

 

[patrick]

Ticky-tack foul on Aidoo right there, looked like a clear held ball.

Exactly what I thought.

Held ball.

 

[patrick]

What’s up!!

How are ya old friend.

 

[camp_steveo]

Get Awaka in there just to cut out the missed rebounds

I agree

 

[tdd]

Aidoo really is weak. Geez. Sometimes I wonder about our big men. We get one great game and then nothing. We need them to play great every game. Especially when we out height a time by 8”. Geez guys. Get it done.

 

[08Vol]

Man feels like they should be up 10

3 shoots already rimmed out so yea

 

[berryvol]

They're not calling touch fouls, we just have been aggressive.

I wish they'd call some of their walks though.

Haven’t seen any walks. Even that one bucket it looked like the ball got knocked loose on the jump stop.

 

[Larkin]

How are ya old friend.

Nervous bro

 

[volforlife15]

Yeah we need to get out some of these dumb fouls. Both of Mashack’s were 40 feet from the basket. Just dumb fouls that have no excuse to be made.

One is fine because the aggressiveness is good. But to pick up 2 the exact same way and not come up with the ball is tough. Has to be smarter
