The Official #9 Tennessee vs. Arkansas Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN2

[TrumpedUpVol]

TN is getting dominated on their homecourt by a subpar Arky team who has taken it to the Vols much like Bama did, Musselman got his team prepared to play, what has Barnes done to counteract it?

It's not as if Barnes is failing via defensive breakdowns and allowing Arkansas uncontested looks from beyond the arch. There's not a whole lot he can do to prevent Arkansas from hitting 46% from three when there's been decent pressure.

Bout time

 

[Creeker]

Finally a 3 goes down

 

[drawing dead]

Springer should just sit. 2 straight passes that should have been a turnover

Glad you aren’t doing the subbing.

 

[Freak]

Springer!

 

[Jravol78]

I just had to check to make sure I wasn’t watching on delay. Reading some of the comments it sounds like we’re down 20. Lol. I still believe!

Dont come around here pumping that shine freak !

 

[Creeker]

Who told the 7’3 kid he can shoot? His shot looks awful.

 

[Jravol78]

$$$

 

[vols 30]

Their Pember is killing it

 

[JRVOL11]

f***

 

[1985Vols]

No foul there

 

[Vol49er]

Cmon Santi, if you're gonna foul, get your money's worth. Just a dumb play

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Man, I really hate Vanover.

 

[1985Vols]

Their Pember is killing it

Wish we had a Pember like him

 

[Switch 625]

Rick Smits tearing it up.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Their Pember is killing it

Fulky still shooting over him like it’s nothing

$$$

MONEY!

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Rule #1 if you're going to foul as hard as Santi did there make sure the guy doesn't make the dang basket.....

Who told the 7’3 kid he can shoot? His shot looks awful.

He’s 34% from 3 on the season. It looks bad but he can knock them down

True, Barnes is stubborn and wont switch up defenses, he has the length, could play a stretch 1-3-1 sometimes

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Vanover walked

 

[beachvol23]

But Fulky just got us back in the game by offense going through him. Fulky is abusing that 7 footer down low.

Fulk needs to quit hedging out high, should be smart enough to know, and stay inside.

I saw no flesh wound...Get ya some Santi! Leave a damn arm on the floor...

 

[orangejuice]

Man, I really hate Vanover.

Seems a little strong. He is definitely playing out if control but I think he can still be a good player.

 

[Jravol78]

MONEY!

damn straight there Bert!
