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

He’s not a good offensive player and that’s all anyone ever says.

Neither was Dennis Rodman

 

[Freak]

I doubt he has given it a second thought since

He talked about it in his postgame press conference. I like that he's humble like that. Said he usually tells the official beforehand that he's going to call timeout, but he didn't do that this time for some reason. He didn't even see the final play. lol.

Some of the players will celebrate with some beers tonight. A non team member might pass a blunt around too. That's ok. These guys are living a great college life

I see people fussing about what fans said earlier in the game. That's why I don't get on the board during the game. I was griping to people who know me about the refs being whistle happy in the first half and not calling nothing in the second half.

Man, if some people can't understand that in a live thread emotions are high, I don't know what to tell them. Hyperbole will happen.
If someone say something like " ZZ play is garbage".....they are really just saying that ZZ is not playing up to his abilities in this particular game. They may not necessarily think he is a garbage player.

Got to be honest here I didn’t think the Vols were going to win this game at the 1:00 mark -.was hoping that the Vols could somehow get to OT.

But man what a sensational and fantastic play by Mashack when it mattered most - draining the longggg 3-ball!

He also finished the last 1:30 strong on offense and defense.

Thank you Mashack, thank you!!!

You deserve this young man - savor it.

Way to go Vols.

Down 4 with 36 seconds to go, ESPN gave Bama a 88.9% chance to win. Yeah. Bout that.

Talked about it in his press conference. So yeah, he has.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Neither was Dennis Rodman

He's a hell of a lot better offensive player than Rodman.

Neither was Dennis Rodman

Michael Jordan was

Shack gets the rebound down 2 & draws a foul, sinks both free throws for the tie. Then creates jump ball that leads to Bama 5 second call, then to win the game on the last shot…

That’s Mashack in a nutshell man, he can do it all

 

[Kas232323]

Michael Jordan was

Basketball teams need players like Mashack and Rodman. Jordan. Lol. Funny guy.

 

[patrick]

and Gainey had a really good game - played well down the stretch!

 

[VolCalls]

I’ve been going to games all over the country for 30+ years and that was one of the best I’ve witnessed in person. Fantastic!

Maybe this gives JM some more confidence. We are tough when we get 8-10 pts from him. Awesome game from someone who deserves it.

 

[Chattahooligan]

Right here celebrating and enjoying every minute of this win same as the super fans that never utter a critical word about how the team’s playing during the game.

Cool, Sounds miserable

 

[theroyz71]

Wow what a shot!! I just scared all 3 dogs in the house with my reaction.

I scared the crap out of our cats.

Great teams find a way to win close games they have to win.
Especially at home. We are a great team.
After that win and the A &M win, I am allowing myself to say it.

Our D the last 15 minutes or so was stellar.
