The Official #7 Tennessee vs. #1 Kansas Game Thread, 2:30 PM ET, ESPN

[amorange]

We are going to get dominated inside by every team with a decent big man.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

We just got burned

 

[Majors]

Love the Lethal Weapon saxophone during timeouts

 

[VolGee4]

Why have replay if you can’t get it correct?

 

[Cdywolfe]

sigh…

 

[TN1111]

Refs got that wrong
..wtf

 

[Christian Lowe]

#7 loses to #1 and #2 means they are overrated? Seems more like “meeting expectations”…

Not specifically talking about basketball, neither was he

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Lol replay and still miss the call

 

[TrippieRedd]

Considering the source, you shouldn’t be surprised.

Lol the teachers pet strikes again.

Next time @ me kiddo

 

[VOLinAL]

The replay wasn’t even close to being off us. WTF

 

[LW_Vol]

Tough being a Vols fan

 

[TrippieRedd]

You don’t play 3games in 3 days in the tournament

Still need to be prepared for it. Period.

Again, it’s not like they were surprised by it.

I really thought adding Gainey and Knecht to pair with Vesco would mean an end to our entire team going cold at the same time.

I think they definitely will. The problem is we made poor shots from the outside where Kansas was getting the ball in the paint. We have just been outcoached the last 10 minutes.

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

We were outclassed twice

 

[Zues1]

Barnes kills me with his love for JJJ, 6 years and he still cant shoot

Careful you'll be labeled a negavol

It is puzzling. A guy who has been in his system who cannot create offensively is not a great look for Barnes. It’s almost like he has regressed

 

[tnvols72]

They have 66 points. Not like they’ve set the world on fire.

and they are winning but trying to use the excuse that Tn has played top ranked teams back to back like Kansas hasnt and had time off is laughable. Tenn was fresh yesterday and still could not score.

To be relevant, we need to steal one every now and again. Don’t like moral victories or participation trophies.

 

[Boston Vol]

Based on what I've seen in the NCAAT lately.....1 seed doesn't mean a whole lot. Ask Purdue.

While I agree it’s not the be-all end-all, 12 out of the past 15 champions have been 1 seeds.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

I think they definitely will. The problem is we made poor shots from the outside where Kansas was getting the ball in the paint. We have just been outcoached the last 10 minutes.

I wouldn't call it outcoached. We just missed shots. Open ones. And 3 of the wide opens 3s rimmed down and out.

He’s shooting over 40% from three this year including this game

 

[Christian Lowe]

Still need to be prepared for it. Period.

Again, it’s not like they were surprised by it.

They just ignore that Kansas and Purdue and Marquette are doing the same thing and didn’t go 1-2. We had the worst showing of any ranked team here. Those are the facts.

 

[Tenacjim]

Well, this is a basketball thread….,

The only shot JJJ needs to shoot is that jumper from the FT line. That's his only shot.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Bingo.

Then they wanna call me a nega. Lames
