The Official #6 [2] Tennessee vs. [15] Saint Peter's Game Thread, 9:20 PM ET, TNT

[CPA]

Knecht's first NCAA tourney game!

 

[StoneokeyVol]

Caught the last few minutes, so glad to have the first one down. On to Texas. Going to be a great game

Saint Peter’s is probably the dirtiest team I’ve seen in a long ass time. That was disappointing man, Reid still running his mouth despite them getting smoked.

Ok.... the Blonde cheerleader, I'm a God Fearing Man but Wow.... ok ty, I'm done

 

[therealitytheory]

Gotta find some fault in a 34 pt. win. Lessee....starters in TOO LONG!

lol

 

[YankeeVol]

I laughed

 

[nomads-11]

Well.. Tennessee did what they did and were ranked. Apologies to the opponent....to a degree. Not the question...WTF will you do against honest competition? Will you show up?


Barnes? You listening? Don't tell me, show me, at this point.

Commentator interviewing talking about his points and how he did it:

The perfect answer would have been: N .... I ... L ... money.

Cash is just as good as money.

Get paid.

Mo' Duckets? Mo' Buckets!

I love our Vols and love our fans but that "it's great to be a Tennessee Vol" chant always sound so slow and lethargic. Just too many words, too long to chant.

And was old in 1990z

Even the Russian judge game him a 9.0.

For such a blowout, it was oddly chippy at the end. What did the St. Peter's players think was going to happen tonight? It seems like they thought they had a chance in hell.

Yes that was very ridiculous and inane much like a team celebrating a touchdown even though they’re trailing by 21 or higher.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Rick Barnes revenge tour for the first ever final four? Texas and Purdue wins? Yes please.

 

[Drewbydoo]

Barkley on fire after this game gigglin' at the match.

That's gold right there....

I think Dillione just needs to get fully healthy. Hoping a full offseason will do him some good on both ends, when he attacks the basket it looks effortless, even now. Really like the young core if we can keep them together.

Dilione is good as gone. The fact he sits as much as he does despite ZZ playing near 40 minutes speaks for itself. Personally, I think he is a tad slow, but what probaby has him in Barne's doghouse is that he turns the ball over too much.

And all the jersey grabs when they were getting beat on defense was also unnecessary. Didn’t really give any advantage other than rack up fouls.

 

[VolBalls33]

Great first game. Played everyone and Santi hit a few 3's and hopefully gets going. Can't wait for Saturday. GBO!

 

[Hulavol]

Time to take down Texas!

 

[Drewbydoo]

Barkley: The older you get, the dumber you get.

said to the bowtie wearing guy. LOL

Our team needed the old 1970's tear away jerseys that the NFL had.

 

[firestorm]

Thanks Charles Barkley for picking Kentucky to make it to the final 4.

That hugely backfired tonight because they got upset by Oakland.

 

[JCP201]

VOLS did what no other SEC team did today. They won.

My only understanding would be they are very frustrated because the game remained a dumpster fire in the second half so they were very unhappy being the hapless jabroni tonight.

 

[Ttucke11]

Anyone have an idea on when they announce Saturday time?

 

[VOLtaism]

Vols took care of business like the SEC champions.
