The Official Tennessee at #8 UConn game thread 2pm CBS

[SeanJean]

Not a bad loss here, but in the position we are in, really hurts us. This team has all the makings of being NIT bound from where I'm sitting.

 

[tnvols72]

It isn't the coaching.

ok you keep thinking that.Its the coahes job to teach players.

 

[gorockytop101]

UCONN might be letting us back in it with their FT shooting. Have to capitalize.

 

[govols120]

And if Fields catches the ball, something we've lacked all day, that point is moot. A potential 4 point lead by us ended up being a 1 point lead for them. Since we can't catch the ball, the end of the 1st half isn't what beat us.

But if we hold on to the ball and even go into halftime without additional points we'd still be up by 2 with momentum.

So many missed opportunities...

[bnhunt]

Yeah you're insane. He's the player of the year at this point, no doubt about it.

Disagree - I would give Jimmer Fridette the nod at this point.

[Volstylexx]

We might not make the tournament.

losing at thet #8 team in the country will not keep you out of the tourney.... all those other ugly losses will

 

[SeanJean]

I can't believe its all getting laid on Hopson. Goins is the only person who ha played worth a dang.
Posted via VolNation Mobile

Hopson cost us 10 points all by himself. Easily. He had 2-3 missed layups ,and another 2-3 horrible turnovers that led to fast breaks. He is absolutely to blame.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Foul?

 

[OrangeWilly]

This is pretty much exactly what I expected.

 

[MY3*VOLS]

foul em ****

 

[Catbone]

Thatll do it boys

 

[SeanJean]

Disagree - I would give Jimmer Fridette the nod at this point.

It's debatable, but the difficulty of their opponents are not even close. Fridette isn't playing the teams Walker is.

 

[Barcio39]

nit bound!

 

[UTvolinBGKY]

Not Tobias' fault.

not blaming him, but to be a 5 star all american who is not in the same league as jones, sullenger or guys like that. All this hype has not translated to big game situations.

 

[PennVol]

Are you really that shocked that we would lose on the road at UCONN?

I never like losing to scum like Jim Calgoon.

[volbreaker]

Dang Tatum. He's creating a legacy of crap shots

 

[govols120]

Tatum, have you ever thought of pulling out and looking for a better shot elsewhere?

[volcrazi]

Cam Tatum is good for nothing.

 

[BigPapaVol]

ok you keep thinking that.Its the coahes job to teach players.

I appreciate your support in my thinking what I'd like.

We heard you the last 10 times!

 

[YankeeVol]

No way we make the tourney IMO

Tennessee is going to be in the NCAA Tournament.

I think he is. He just doesn't have the opportunity to showcase his talents on this roster. Tobias is absolutely legit. He just doesn't get the touches.

 

[m37bruno]

You can thank Hopson, Tatum, Fields and until late in the game Tobias for not giving enough effort tonight...
