The Official #5 Tennessee vs. #6 Alabama Game Thread, 4:00 PM ET, ESPN

[Caz]

Drives me nuts when our opponent can't miss a 3 pt shot time after time. Infuriating.

I mean they are wide ass open. I might could hit one

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

We are using our offensive possessions to rest instead of scoring

Rick could help them get a blow with a Time Out. But he'd rather take them home with him

 

[knoxchief]

Good thing is we have actually done well overall this year. Even if we lose this, we will likely be a 2 seed.

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

Lanier has disappeared after the first 4 minutes of the game

He needs open looks and Bama has been sticking to him. He doesn't create well.

 

[Chris4Vols22]

Not sure why he doesn’t do it any more. Physical enough to fight through contact and at the very least he can draw a defender allowing someone else to get open

I agree. It drives me crazy when he slashes into the paint with no plan other than to pass it back it out. Maybe he's getting some confidence now and will continue attacking...

 

[Hurley Mooncalf]

Bama has played damn good today. I think the whistle favored their play the first half. We have to dig deep, get some stops and score the damned ball.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Why do I get the feeling we're going to get down 11-12 then with about 3-4 minutes left we'll start scoring to give us hope only for the hill to end up being too big to climb back from?

 

[D3Athlete]

I’m sick and tired of Tennessee guys getting limited in the freedom of movement on the offensive side of the ball with nothing being called.

 

[knoxchief]

BS refs

 

[RAVOL]

Sometimes the offense is just better and so far they are living up to there high scoring.

 

[Chaz-Vol]

Did you read Dykes name in my comment? No

I'm explaining that because one dude might be loving on bama it happens and Dykes loves on vols. It'll be ok I promise

 

[YankeeVol]

Really?!?!

A 1 or 2 seed only matters where we are placed

 

[zeppelin128]

These zebras really must not like Igor

 

[ashleyyy]

this is unwatchable

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Millic ain't it today anyways....

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Good thing is we have actually done well overall this year. Even if we lose this, we will likely be a 2 seed.

Yeah but still disappointing if we had a chance to pretty much wrap up a #1 seed at home and we lay an egg.

 

[ttocswob]

Ridiculous 4th on Igor

 

[VFL1127]

These cheap foul calls are ridiculous

 

[vol94]

Guys, we are only down six and Bama is shootimg over 50%.

We can go on a run at any time if we can get stops.

 

[tnvols72]

rebounding killing them

 

[RAVOL]

We do get the worst home calls

 

[knoxchief]

Okay. We are done!

 

[RockyTop140]

You cannot let them get these offensive rebounds. That’s just brutal

 

[TrapVol]

How was that not a walk by Sears?
