The Official #6 Tennessee vs. #23 Georgia Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, SEC Network

[NOLAPhil]

Our defense is fun, our offense is terrible because of post play, zero trust to put the ball inside.

 

[cwbytruckers]

No. We need to play our best players. We already struggle to score. Boswell isn’t ready.

Didn’t say he was our best player or one of them. I just have a gut feeling without floor time he leaves.

 

[RockyTop140]

Like to see Dubar getting some more minutes straight. I mean before he gets pulled out

100% agree. He goes to the basket and isn’t afraid to shoot

 

[Booner]

I think Florida came to Knoxville and messed with the rims here too!

 

[KTrain]

This is bad basketball period

2 really good Ds makes it look bad IMO

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Guards have got to get downhill and take it to the rim. Not their specialty, but you gotta take what the defense gives you and hopefully get to the free throw line. Georgia isn’t giving us open threes (and the ones we have gotten we’ve missed).

Surprised he isn’t in the game at this point. We need someone to make shots.

 

[jacksonvol24]

This offense is hard to watch. We just cannot shoot the ball. We can play defense but someone has to hit a shot.

 

[knoxchief]

Watching on TV and it sounds like we are playing an away game. Crowd not into it!

 

[A-RodWiLks]

Pathetic. Guess we can't count on Lanier anymore. Best offense is the Z drive n oops to Cade

 

[vol94]

We have got to have another option besides jacking up 3s.

Yeah, hard to watch and Barnes’ achille heels in recent yrs. We don’t have a way to score consistently w/inside presence or driving to the rim. ZZ can but his smites get swatted sometimes. And Igor isn’t nimble enough to take his man off the dribble and to the rim.

 

[tnvols72]

I hope Barnes is not drawing up defensive sets setting there lol

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Wish DD would jack it up. He has some range.

Everybody else has, he needs to get some allowance to take some and get going. Hated he missed that one at the basket earlier but it was a nice take

 

[FlVols]

We need to get in a run and beat these Dawgs! Damn Vols.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

2 best scoring defenses in SEC, looks like it too!

 

[tnvols72]

Do they only practice defense?

Starting to look that way

 

[Volswami]

Do we ever run. any offense? Its just come down dribble around and long 3 or fade away.

 

[RockyTop140]

I was hoping the Florida game was just a crazy no show on offense. It appears that isn’t the case.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Didn’t say he was our best player or one of them. I just have a gut feeling without floor time he leaves.

Then he leaves. It is what it is. You don’t just play players that can’t help you if it can hurt your current season.

I’m more concerned about our offense being able to score points than keeping Boswell for next year.

 

[cwbytruckers]

This offense is hard to watch. We just cannot shoot the ball. We can play defense but someone has to hit a shot.

Earlier in the season our offense was clicking. Someone sold off our shooting ability or something for an NIL deal.

 

[jacksonvol24]

Dubar and Gainey need to be on the floor more together.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

I said it a couple games ago...Dubar should start over Igor at this point

 

[patrick]

If we could shoot a little bit we would be up 7-8.

 

[Doctrippin]

This is reminding me of the football season. We start off playing lights out and then fizzle in conference play

 

[cwbytruckers]

Then he leaves. It is what it is. You don’t just play players that can’t help you if it can hurt your current season.

I agree. My comment was only an observation about him. Not the team or who should play.
