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

Mizzou can't possibly shoot that well two halves in a row. Our defense wasn't as bad as the score shows. We need to figure out how to keep the passing lanes open. The Tigers had our number first half.

Based on what - recruiting analysis? No offense intended, but we are so good at recruiting guys that never reach what the recruiting analysts thought.

I understand, maybe I’ve got orange colored glasses a bit on this one. But a little of both the analysis and the eye test earlier in the season (granted garbage time minutes). Watched him in HS and he has the ability and raw talent, so hopefully it develops.

I do think it’s good he’s getting minutes here. Needs the experience and the opportunity and some of our regulars need a wake up call.

Two games in a row where we've eaten our first half time out. How do you not call a time out during that huge run? He's so obsessed with saving it for the last minute of the half. Who cares in the first half? Use it to try to stop momentum.
 
Amazing shooting stacking up for Mizzou.... gotta give them props there. Gotta think those percentages equal out next half.

But the ref not calling that shoulder shiver he put on Santi is another horrible non call. That is two for him tonite. Luckily it did not lead to more points at the buzzer.

Acting like our offense is “fixed” and we have 32 effing points at the half. We just suck all the way around now.
 
Why do we keep taking Awaka out? ZZ, Vescovi and Awaka are the only ones that have an ounce of fight in them.

Mizzou won’t shoot that good from 3 in the 2nd half but can our offense score enough? It doesn’t look like it now.
 
Atrocious half of basketball. Defense for the second straight game hasn’t lived up to its billing, and the offense is what it is.

Our rotation bas been odd to say the least. BJ Edwards hasn’t played in two months and all of a sudden he gets 8~ minutes in the first half? And Tobe went to the bench never to return after one foul. When Olivier continues to play like garbage, there’s no reason to not give Awaka more minutes.

I've been saying all season this is a top 20-30 team. We've looked elite at times, but the offense is dysfunctional on the whole. Too dependent on passing and not enough playmakers to support the style.
