The Official #8 Tennessee vs. Texas Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, ESPN

[Creeker]

Igor you’re gonna have to make something

 

[VolCalls]

We got zero out of ZZ the first half. Even when he was out there he wasn’t able to do what he normally does with scoring and ball distribution. Texas is very physical and athletic. We need to bring it in the second half.

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Got to hit that Igor smh

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

If not for Lanier we would be trailing big

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

Texas shooting 56% at the half.

 

[OrangeInKy]

I hate listening to Bilas he should go call swimming events so he’s not so horrified by the carnage of SEC basketball.

He has to go to intensive therapy after SEC games. The trauma of seeing the crimson blood of young men flood the cherished hardwood all so that may attain a trophy , is too much for some men.

 

[Aerie Vol]

Everything Tx throws up going in. Still losing by 3. We’ll be alright.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

They really outplayed us.

 

[sportsnut624]

Well good news is I’m not sure we could be any worse defensively than that half.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Of course that goes in

 

[landscapingvol]

ZZ cant stay in the game long enough to help. Tx is begging Tenn to put them away

He has not played well offensively the last two games. I don’t think he scored against SC until the last minute or two of the game and has zero points in this one

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Texas can’t miss

 

[tnvols72]

ZZ out.

Thats his own fault. He cant stop fouling

 

[hUTch2002]

Seriously. We should attack the rim almost every time. We get it anytime we want it. Fate doing it enough the 3s will open up.

 

[Bigkat]

Walked

 

[GBO18]

Tough shot. Cut down on the wide open 3s and we good.

 

[therealitytheory]

I thought Igor too that guy out...

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I guess I can’t call it a disappointing half, but it certainly feels like that with how we played defense.

 

[Cdywolfe]

Traveled but whatever…

 

[OrangeInKy]

Let's try having Igor wear his old Charlotte jersey under his UT jersey and see if we can get that 3 point shooting I was expecting from him.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

One man show on offense. Defense not as good as advertised.

 

[tnvols72]

This game should already be over with but the lack of scorers on this team is mind blowing for college kids

 

[Kicker82]

Texas is hitting tough shots, don't see them hitting all these in the second half

 

[Col_Cathcart]

Announcers just acting like Texas shooting 50% from 3 is unremarkable but Tennessee having 9 points off turnovers is some crazy unsustainable thing

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

ZZ cant stay in the game long enough to help. Tx is begging Tenn to put them away

If isn't going to dribble penetrate and be looking to score at the rim then we are better off not to have him in there, honestly.
Endless dribbling around is not going to get it done on offense.
