The Official #8 Tennessee vs. #12 Kentucky Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[RAVOL]

Guards have not made one jump shot. Not One. Even at home you can't win shooting this horrendous. Looks like AU game mentality spent us. In CHRIST Alone

 

[Go47]

it’s almost comical. 13% from 3.

No more - well . . . Really we are better offensively. This is the typical team in Knoxville. Great defense (though leaving wide open shooters to a team that lives by the 3 is not too smart) . . . Horrid offense.

Either Lanier gets back on track . . . On this team is cooked.

 

[hUTch2002]

And to think, early in the year we were worried about relying too much on Chaz. We certainly aren’t now.

 

[vols 30]

Our leading scorer has 0 points.

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

It helps to actually play defense on EVERY possession.

We have not switched right with some odd groupings in the floor.

 

[knoxchief]

Nobody on VOLS can make a 3. Quit shooting them and at least get the 2's. UK won't keep making all the 3's in the second half.

 

[patrick]

I mean at some point this team has to shoot even just 30% from three right?!

Just wait. You may be proven wrong.

 

[Chattahooligan]

I mean at some point this team has to shoot even just 30% from three right?!

Hell I’d take 20% right now

 

[walkenvol]

Offense is stagnant - push the pace

 

[vavolfan6]

Can Kentucky really go 50% from the 3 for the whole game?

 

[Barnes_Burner]

If only we could pair a half decent offense to go with this top 3 defense. This is embarrassing to waste this kind of potential.

 

[knoxchief]

Our leading scorer has 0 points.

I hate to say it but Lanier is overrated. He isn't anywhere near knect!

 

[molsen81]

Our leading scorer has 0 points.

His game has gone to Pluto

 

[Go47]

Defense is now looking bad. Easy dunk.

 

[FlVols]

Well DAMN

 

[volsarelife1]

Gainey actually hit a 3

 

[hUTch2002]

We’ve shot more 3s than Kentucky! That’s stupid.

 

[patrick]

Old look like their legs are shot. And UK hadn’t been able to defend all year.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Lanier hasn’t done jack

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Can Kentucky really go 50% from the 3 for the whole game?

If we don’t pressure the shot, they can.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

ZZ maybe hurt

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Well, there went our season

 

[theroyz71]

Uh oh!

 

[volsarelife1]

Lanier definitely doesn't have that big game killer instinct that Knecht had. He actually gets worse in the big games

 

[RyanWalkerPGH]

Well that’s an ankle sprain
