Going to be honest, will be funny seeing how quickly the vocal portion of our fanbase will be giving up on this team and calling us frauds based on this first half. Doesn’t take much for them to change their minds.

 

[Vols All Day]

Care has no idea what he was doing on that last defensive possession haha

Youngin was struggling.

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

Oof, awful call.

 

[TennVols12]

Ball game.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

5 points for us since the 11 minute mark. Not great, Bob!

 

[87&91ALUM]

cmon Vols!

 

[YankeeVol]

There we go ZZ

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

This is not a F4 team

 

[AppStVol]

Who scheduled this game? Lose-lose matchup for us as they are pesky and will keep it close.

 

[Voltopia]

Goodness, how often is one Wofford guy gonna outrebound two or three Tennessee players around the basket?

 

[RockyTop140]

Geez our offense is sputtering

This is not a F4 team

Lmao...here they come

 

[Orangeblooded615]

I like Zeigler and Santi with the 2nd unit. Gives it defense and a great pop with the young guys.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

This is not a F4 team

LMAO. Faster than I thought.

I tell you what, Barnes is certainly doing his usual early season lineup experiments in this one. I’m a little surprised given Wofford is giving us troubles but it’s normal for Barnes so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

Lol, on cue.

26-20 3:40. Wofford not backing down. Our O and D not in synch. Way too many missed shots and way too many opponent shots with no attempt to block or get in the way.

Faster than I thought here on the scoring drought

I won’t be worried about scoring droughts with this team until conference play starts. It’s Game #3 and the last thing to fall into place will be perimeter shooting. You need game reps for that.

Granted, the perimeter shooting hasn’t looked great through 3 games so I can understand why some would be worried.

Still early in the game, it's a long season. They'll get it figured out.

 

[TennVols12]

This is not a F4 team

Agreed, National Championship team

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Barnes playing 11 guys in the first half even with this game being so close tells me he isn’t worried at all. So why would I be.

 

[Namorto1]

We just need to rebound better and this would be a double digit game.

For me, my biggest concern is rebounding. Just gotta get bodies on these guys. Giving up way too many offensive boards and not getting many of our own. Wofford is workin' hard. Can they keep it up tho?

Hey that’s what Joe said down 29 on saturday
