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

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

The way Dicky V was glazing Bama he's probably in his trailer crying right now

 

[therealitytheory]

Stuck in G10, driving, but nowhere to go.

I hope Dixkie V had a good game. damn what a game. I'm horse as shot. HOarse.

 

[Milehigh_Vol]

I scared everyone in a fancy restaurant watching the game on my phone... oops

 

[walkenvol]

I can’t recall a more exciting finish to such a big game! GO VOLS!

 

[tnvols72]

I still have not figured out why ZZ was trying to call a time out with under a second left. Did he have money on Bama or something today. He almost ruined that moment

 

[Vol8188]

Mashack MVP if we win. Clutch FTs and elite defense today.

Elite effort on the rebound too that set us up to tie the game. Cant say enough good about him

 

[fear]

thank you mashack for saving my life

 

[tn4elvis]

Any Tennessee sporting event should come with the warning “Watching this could be hazardous to your health.”

There were several older people in the crowd that were covering their mouths and looked ready to pass out in the last two minutes.

 

[Volfan2012]

Does that mean we get the one seed

Not at all still a lot of basketball to be played, but were there for the present.

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

You hate to see it

 

[Switch 625]

I thought we were cooked after they got that “jump ball” with 3.8 seconds left. Figured they would inbound it and get fouled to win it at the FT line

 

[TN Volunteers.]

A little turtle doven on a Mason Dixon night. Buck Fama!

 

[hUTch2002]

Barnes nor this team deserve a 1 seed.

What do you think now? I say we do, assuming we at least win one more.

 

[djohnnyg]

I don't like the game was that close...but I'm in such disbelief we pulled it out. Bama fans have to be sick after that.

 

[Chris4Vols22]

What an electrifying game and win. Very proud of Barnes and the boys for earning the win.

 

[Caz]

Like the Hail Mary against GA all over again!

 

[Big Orange Rock]

Holy crap. Mashack of all people. Sitting here for Mother-in-laws birthday at J-Alexander’s in Chattvegas watching it on my phone and waiting for us to inbound and the whole damn bar exploded and ruined my moment lol. Glad it got ruined. Son was there at the game. He went to the Florida game and this Bama game. He has to go to all the big ones from now on lol. GO mother frickin VOLS. Shack with two stone cold free throws the tie up and the dagger! NOICE!

 

[Switch 625]

Wife’s not speaking to me now because I was so loud, but she will recover!

Mine is perturbed too.

 

[Col_Cathcart]

This is why every coach wants Mashack on their ****ing team!!!

 

[hUTch2002]

Poor game from Z and Lanier has to get himself more involved somehow.

What’s shocking is we won with ZZ playing very poorly, tons of crap calls against us and Lanier shrinking when we needed him. That’s the mark of a great team.

 

[GBO18]

I’m never unhappy to be wrong about that FYI.

Cool.

 

[Caz]

….And we had to beat the officials too!

 

[Volnbeers]

Trying to think of a bigger shot in Tennessee basketball history and nothing is coming to mind

 

[tn4elvis]

Elite effort on the rebound too that set us up to tie the game. Cant say enough good about him

He’s a great player and doesn’t expect any accolades or credit. All he does is play his ass off

 

[ttocswob]

March Madness gets an early start!

March Mashackness!!!
