You epitomize a game thread! No one was more caustic than you until we took the big lead then this post when the win is final. Does your cuss word jar fill up in a game like this?

I don't know about "Patrick said" and his cuss jar, but, personally, after the UK loss I forgot to post that I had a triple double in that game. Said the F word enough times and rebounded over ten times to say it quickly again! Would have had a triple triple as I often passed it on to the wife to say, but she couldn't take it and went downstairs to watch the second half on her phone.

I hate losing to Kentucky in bball, but I enjoyed this MSU win and didn't fill the jar at all.

14/15 Ft's is awesome but gave up 14 OREB. That is way too many second chance points. (long rebounds off missed 3's can be difficult) I'm afraid we do this against a good shooting team(s) and it will hurt us badly. Have to get better on the defensive end, when a shot goes up, find a man and put him on your hip!
Any road win is a nice win though! Now let's continue the 2nd half over to LSU.

Go Vols!

I thought we struggled to rebound when we went to zone defense. Got some more work to do to be a good zone team

I don’t. He did bounce back very well but he played like crap to start. There is a reason he wants and likes to come off the bench

Thanks for proving my point. He bounced back, meaning you over-reacted too early, hence the premature analogy. Have a good night

Nice win. Everyone knew State would make it ugly. Had help from officials early but calls balanced out later.

Really surprised Josiah didn’t play any point. He needs to take command and demand the ball.

Not sure I can recall JJJ ever taking command and demanding the ball. That's not his personality. With his physical tools, I'm also constantly amazed he's not better at attacking the rim.

If we go 15-3 in conference with wins against Alabama, Kentucky in Rupp, Auburn, Georgia, etc. AND a victory over Kansas there is no way we aren’t a 1-seed. 15-3 just feels a lot tougher now due to that UK loss.

Or what if we go 17-1 instead in conference?!?

Great bounce back win for UT tonight. Putting 70 points on Mississippi State and winning by double digits without Vescovi and Key on their home floor is a good effort. Props to ZZ, Phillips, and JJJ for very strong efforts.

The need is the call. The team needed it.
