The Official #5 Tennessee @ LSU Game Thread, 9:00 PM ET, SEC Network

[Clad in Big Orange]

The 1 seed that everyone seems obsessed with talking about has one foot out the door.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

I’ve seen a lot of mid major teams this year better than this LSU team. Rock fight with this bunch?

I've seen better teams at the Y

 

[TheBigOne10]

These refs suck but Barnes should be force feeding the ball inside every trip down... just terrible coaching not to exploit the size difference

100%. Felix has literally feasted every time he’s touched it. Scheming malpractice so far.

 

[cncchris33]

Two straight games with a lot more Milibic, and a lot less Milicic. Just a bunch of that soft euro-trash basketball. I wish he had his talent and Uros's attitude.

 

[sechamp2012]

This looks like a throwback Kevin O’Neill type game no matter the team a close low scoring game. Pretty boring to watch

The 1 seed that everyone seems obsessed with talking about has one foot out the door.

There you are. I was getting worried.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Yeah, wouldn’t mind seeing longer stretches tonight.

Our offense is out of sync tonight.

We better be careful.

Our offense is too often out of sync.

 

[Volizona]

This bipolar offense scares me entering March. Just have no idea how it’s going to play out. Having dejavu all over again per the football season

 

[Hoggervol]

Igor needs a good "talk" at the half

He needs a good case of the pine.

 

[molsen81]

Discipline and clean up on the boards in the second half should wrap this one up

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

There you are. I was getting worried.

Don’t be worried. Many folks said this would be an easy win.

 

[Delmar]

He gives us nothing. Absolutely nothing. Below average defender. No offensive production. Definitely something afoot he’s playing this much.

It’s called zero depth. We are basically down to 7 first line players. The five starters plus Phillips and Gainey. Dubar isn’t contributing anything and Boswell isn’t ready.

 

[RAVOL]

I have nothing to add to everyone else's comments about Offense this half. But I can say. In CHRIST Alone

He's not even rebounding at a high rate like he was earlier. He's had less than 5 boards in each of the last 3 games

 

[GBO18]

Good news is half of the posters in here now will be asleep before the game is over. Past y’all’s bedtime.

I'm so damn tired...

 

[TheBigOne10]

Look at our effort versus Alabama’s in their first half. Wake the eff up!

 

[cncchris33]

Our offense is too often out of sync.

You're not wrong about that much. No one outside of our fanbase watches our offense and comes away thinking that's a 1-seed. Take away the name on the jersey, the #5 ranking, and from outsider's perspective, we don't pass the eye test on offense.

Now, defensively, while it may not be an attractive style of basketball, we can put the clamps on a team, but you have to be able to score the ball at some point.

 

[BreatheUT]

This is why I said this UT team could get bounced early from the tournament. The offense is shaky. This LSU team is not very good. They better develop at least one more scoring option.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Good news is that the nega’s shift is over and the sunpumps are clocking in.

 

[vavolfan6]

We have 9 more rebounds but the same number of shot attempts as LSU. Gotta convert extra possessions with more created shot attempts.

 

[vols 30]

Good news is that the nega’s shift is over and the sunpumps are clocking in.

I just wonder which of my negatives posts will be tagged by them after the game.

Heck, I hope they do. Means we won

 

[Just a VolinTears]

Speaking of Uros. Here's a little good news.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

In all seriousness, LSU is a terrible team. If we really are top tier, we should win this by 20+

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Got to come out ultra focused and under control. Play tough D and run the sets
