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

Haha! I want us to dominate all of them…
Nah - I’m just kidding around - everyone has their favorite sports! Mine are football and baseball.

Especially the ATL Braves. Baseball is just such magical theatre - at every level.

To be clear, I wouldn’t trade a Vols NC - or even a final four - for a Braves World Series win or anything…. But it would be close!
🤣
 
The answer is simple: It makes fans question the integrity of the officials. Especially in a sport that has a history of point shaving.

When the line is 9.5, and a player on the team with the 10 point lead has a player from the other team literally ON HIS BACK! and it is called a jump ball, not a foul, well, that makes fans question the legitimacy of the end results.

You may not think so, and that is fine, but you can't in good faith say that fans don't have a gripe. Especially in betting states. (Disclosure: I am not a bettor for any number of reasons, but if I were so inclined, what I have seen from NCAA refs would keep me from laying any money down on a basketball game.)
The game passed Don Dailey by 10 years ago. The jump ball call was one of the worst calls this season. He should be done for the year.
