Hahahahahaha Barnes taking that final possession away

 

[berryvol]

Ziegler trying to get Barnes to keep him on the court has me dead

Hahahahahaha Barnes taking that final possession away

I don’t get it LMAO. You leave him in that long and THEN take him out?

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Estrella had a good game as well

 

[Real Info]

ZZ asked Barnes to keep him, but Barnes wasn’t having it.

 

[Chris4Vols22]

I gotta think we're going to play a complete game today start to finish, a la Ole Miss.

Bruin. Now.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Dalton Knecht saving his first 40-point game for Rupp Arena.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Do it Saturday against Bama DK!!!

Florida was the 3rd highest scoring in the SEC coming into this game at 86.4 a game, we just held them 20 points under their average while scoring 85 (6 points above our average).

GREAT WIN!!!!

 

[Vols till I fall]

I like Barnes but that was a d-bag move of him to not let Dalton Knecht score 40

 

[TheBigOne10]

So close lol

 

[berryvol]

As soon as they sent the guys to the scorers table I knew he was coming out. Feel like Barnes told him he had 1 chance and stuck to his word

 

[ttocswob]

Dalton 39 points.

Not like he won't get another chance...

 

[DowntownVol]

I think Florida also knew DK had 39 and bowed up a bit as a matter of pride to keep him from getting 40

 

[KTrain]

He air balled his last 2, just need to get it in the flow of the game, I think Barnes thought he had his chance. I think he gets 40 vs Auburn.

 

[D3Athlete]

Already surpassed the amount of 80 point games Tennessee had last year in just 17 games.

 

[RockyTopRiot]

I like Barnes but that was a d-bag move of him to not let Dalton Knecht score 40

He gave him a chance and the last possession looked sloppy and he bricked a three.

 

[Volfan2012]

We had 5 offensive rebounds and only 2 more turnovers so 41 to 35

They had 11 offensive rebounds in the first half.

 

[DowntownVol]

some sloppy ballhandling, but overall, we controlled the game from start to finish. Can't ask for much more than that.

 

[Volnut]

This is the voice of the Dallas Mavericks, a Florida grad who hates Tennessee. So he is speaking with respect here.

Great win not ever to concerned about winning when we score like today.

 

[RavinDave]

He was gassed

 

[EasternVol]

I like Barnes but that was a d-bag move of him to not let Dalton Knecht score 40

He had taken a couple of bad shots.

 

[walkenvol]

All wins are great! But, some troubling trends tonight. JJJ & SV combine for 5 points. Gave up way too many offensive rebounds and turnovers. Knecht is carrying us right now, but we’ve got to get more efficient on both sides of the ball

If you can get them in the flow of the game great, but I would yank a guy going one on five.

I think JJJ and SV's designed roles are different now, especially when Knecht is hot.
