The Official #6 Tennessee vs. #19 Missouri Game Thread, 8:20 PM ET, SEC Network

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

So since they are shooting the ball WELL ABOVE their avg, shouldn't they be lucky to have a lead? Statistically speaking...

Yeah...they should be up by a whole lot more than 6 points. We're fortunate to even be in the game. That's my point

Bailey seems to disappoint on both ends of the floor. Hopefully, he will become mentally tougher

 

[1985Vols]

It's a broken record with you, huh? Are they all garbage?

When you miss wide open layups and are a scholarship,player in D1 , you’re pretty much garbage

 

[VolFreakJosh]

And if the officials would actually do their damn job, Tillman should already have two fouls.

 

[1985Vols]

Yes, flop after two seasons and being one of our best overall players...yeah flop...put the steel reserve down.

Guess that’s part of our problem if he’s considered one of our “ best overall players”

You’re garbage

Three. He is definitely in "Prove to me you'll call a foul" mode.

 

[Mullins2010]

GBO!

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Mizzou is shooting out of their mind, but that is also partially an indictment of our defense the past two games. Going to need to get a lot better.

No, no, I don't think it is your point. Your point is we are "lucky" to be in a game where in all honesty we are behind because they have been statistically "lucky" to be hitting like 54% from 3. So, we are actually unlucky to not be winning right now.

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Gaines has more points in this game than Fulky. 2 points

Fulky doesn't need to see the floor in the second half IMO. He isn't giving us anything tonight.

Amazes me how Missouri is allowed to defend vs how we are, like two different set of rules.

Ok....

Fulkerson plays poorly against big physical players. Maybe put Uros in there to beat on their big player and Vescovi man up on Pinson.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen you say something positive in regard to our team.

Sorry but this is a dumb take.

A lot of good players miss easy shots every now & then.

It just happens.

He's not a good finisher at the rim but keeps trying to do it. Needs the stop drop jumper like Johnson.

Actually, he should probably have five - he is playing VERY physical and throwing his weight around.

You make it sound like he was in a layup line and missed a layup. His was contested.

 

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

Seems like this will be a game Tennessee squeaks out

We miss more than any other team I have watched

I'll take it

Mizz has missed some as well including a dunk.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

If Uros wasn’t such a liability in switching situations I would say “go give Tilman hell”

But we always switch on high screens & Missouri guards would scorch him.

Lmao...says the dude who probably never even played on his high school team
