The Official #8 Tennessee vs. #5 Florida Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN

[molsen81]

A long and tough game is amongst us

 

[walkenvol]

So at home we are driving to the hoop and getting contact without fouls being called?

 

[I4Vols]

Wow. Literally nothing is traveling anymore.

I watched an NBA game last night to prep for this

 

[tnvols72]

Chaz Lanier needs to freaking step-up. It is past time for him to embrace the contact.

He is scared and soft

 

[VolunteerVFL]

We cant buy a foul call.

Florida has 4, we have 2.

 

[Go47]

Mashack can't even make layups

He’s a great defender / elite at times. But having him on the floor is like playing 4 on 5 on offense.

 

[C-south]

Mashack’s “defense” doesn’t make up for his inability to have a semblance of offense.

 

[I4Vols]

Why take out Dubar, Rick? He has 4 of our 7 points?

Long game, need some breaks, he doesn't play normally the minutes he'll get today

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Lanier has to be more physical and aggressive on the offensive end. By the refs officiating early we may as well be playing on the road.

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

One guy has made an effort to necessarily get in the paint and he's only the bench. Make that make sense.

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Florida has 4, we have 2.

Doesnt matter. There has been a difference in calls at the rim for one team. The block on the fast break may have been clean, but the rest have all had foul worthy contact

 

[Go47]

Mashack’s “defense” doesn’t make up for his inability to have a semblance of offense.

Agree.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Long game, need some breaks, he doesn't play normally the minutes he'll get today

We got to keep folks scoring in the game.

Never heard this before???

 

[Just a VolinTears]

Keep driving and being aggressive. Philips is tough man

 

[Namorto1]

At least we are trying to get into the paint. Missing shots but that is the smart way to play unlike what we did against Kentucky.

 

[Majors]

Chaz does not even want the ball

Said it last game against KY. He didn’t want it

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Long game, need some breaks, he doesn't play normally the minutes he'll get today

Play him. If he can't make it , he can't make it.

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

My son’s youth basketball team plays tougher than Chaz Lanier.
How much is he getting paid again?

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Where did the teams shooting for 2024 go?? 2025 shooting has been terrible

 

[patrick]

Vols shooting is just plain bad.

 

[C-south]

Gators probably won’t have to worry about getting in foul trouble.

 

[volsarelife1]

Great defense from Phillips

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Yes!!! To the basket, EVERY play!!

 

[VolunteerVFL]

Gators probably won’t have to worry about getting in foul trouble.
