The Official #6 Tennessee @ #9 Arizona Game Thread, 10:30 PM ET, ESPN2

[TheMookieMonster]

What a pathetic product. College basketball can be really dumb. Just a pathetic game by the officials.

 

[BreatheUT]

It ain't your night when your 3 point shooters can't hit a shot and a 50% free throw shooter hitting FTs late.

 

[Voljayton]

Like everyone else has said. I hate that Barnes doesn't get in these refs faces. They're not going to be afraid to call games like this if Barnes sits there impotent.

 

[firestorm]

Great effort made the game close except tonight the Wildcats outplayed the Volunteers.

 

[I4Vols]

Santi wasn’t a foul. Key definitely was

Replay showed hook him

 

[vols 30]

Same, he can get into his players jerseys but doesn’t light up the refs!! Cmon Barnes grow a pair!!

That will never happen.

 

[Shaun1985]

Holy crap!!! Tennessee shouldn't feel bad about losing this one. They played better and are better than Aruzona. Firm believer in you shouldn't talk about the refs because better teams overcome it but maaaan. This was bad.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

That last sequence was absolutely horrible. Horrible officiating.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

Arizona is now worse than Kentucky to me. This is ridiculous and the arizona players and fans are a bunch of ***** clowns!!

 

[zjcvols]

BS. He bodied him.

Santi didn’t help falling away. But either way should have been UT foul shots because Key got hammered

 

[patrick]

25 —— 10 free throws.

now Ricky is giving the officials hell.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

And now you hit a 3.....of course.

 

[tnvols72]

Barnes talking to the refs with 6 seconds left, Go set down Barnes

 

[TrapVol]

Great job by the refs making sure Arizona keeps the home streak alive!

 

[BradstarVols]

Refs were in on it. Pretty obvious

 

[vavolfan6]

Congrats to Arizona on having 17 extra free throws

 

[NEO]

Barnes doesn't even get in the refs face on that no call on Vescovi

one of my major problems with him.

You draw attention to this so it get talked about on espn and doesn’t happen again. You get a technical and make it obvious u know it’s BS.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

This is not a deep run TN team, they will be a first weekend out

 

[JCP201]

I know refs refs refs, but this one looked fixed.

 

[RockyTopJA]

Garbage team in a garbage conference with garbage refs. Key is not the key.

 

[Caz]

Too late to bitch now Barnes. Might have started that earlier

 

[KB5252]

Too late Barnes, games already over. Why? Means nothing now!

 

[The Tall Gguy]

Fixed like every other sport

 

[casetopia]

Another good game ruined by the refs.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Same, he can get into his players jerseys but doesn’t light up the refs!! Cmon Barnes grow a pair!!

I’m normally not one to say a lot about officiating, I referee myself and it’s a tough job. But this game tonight has been the worst I’ve watched in perhaps ever.

I appreciate Barnes out there right now, but too little, too late.
