The Official #7 Tennessee vs. #2 Purdue Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ESPN

[87&91ALUM]

We are playing #2. They are good. We gotta shoot and score more and better. Officials need to call those lane violations on Purdue and even out the physical foul calls.

 

[JCP201]

Can I say our defense is awesome?

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

No, I strictly said what I said. The game has been physical, and bad calls happen in every game. Every single one. I'm not a huge fan of coaches picking up techs and giving away 2 FTs, but Barnes had good reason to take exception to a couple calls at least.

Barnes never gets this sideways about fouls and the way the game is being called.

I’m going to say he knows more than any of us and follow his lead.

They want that #1 vs #2 matchup

You're watching it.

& despite 5 points on one possession aided by Technical

That technical resulted in a noticeable difference in the # of fouls called on PU.

That’s a slow 15. Looked like the entire shot clock. Ha ha

[Voltopia]

I just need to make a brief statement: if you’re keeping up with the gamethread, yer not watching the game…

First rule of college sports sh*tposting. Always have the television and the computer screen lined up. Always. Can't make the magic happen on a phone. Phone too small. Have to look down to see and type.

 

[spyfish007]

So in the we against Syracuse yesterday, we used the same basket in the first half as tonight. I saw some other games in this tournament and well I think this rim is no good. Let's see what the next half brings.

…hmm. A description: MRI of Bilas swallowing Edey soft muscle tissue.

Wow. I’m going to leave this one alone, probably for the best.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Make damn FTs

 

[VolArmy74]

Our poor free throw shooting hurts my heart. It's the easiest shot in the game.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Cmon Mashack…1 of 2 free throws

 

[PKT_VOL]

Missing free throws is going to come back and haunt us.

 

[Switch 625]

HYFT!

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Good lord the FT shooting.
