CCM had them ready to play today. No doubt.
But, the second half looked more like the team we have watched all season than the team we watched for the past couple of weeks.

Lulz the same poster?

LOL, noticed that too?

 

[DoubleA]

11 seed is better than a 9 seed imo.

Great game guys.

Call on Maymon was BAD, but you can't react like that...especially being a senior.

How is an 11 seed better than a 9 seed?

 

[1985Vols]

1985 when can I expect payment?

Haven't seen our name in a bracket yet

I like our chances of poaching Bruce from Auburn next year.

Hart will never make the change at this stage, but Bruce finds a way to win this game today. Martin just hasn't found that next gear or that big game in three years. Went into the Cuonzo Martin shell.

Another guy who doesn't show up unless we lose.

Get bent.

The game was blacked out completely in my area I live in Raleigh. Anyone else have that same problem

No

 

[VolGee4]

What did I say about that officiating crew in the first half? Those of us who have watched alot of SEC games over the years know. That combination was bad. Should have just added Tony Greene as a fourth and Teddy V as the fifth and you would have an all time terrible starting team. Just awful.

Yep, it was clear Scottie grazed him, which is a foul.

Barton tried selling the refs on a flagrant...video showed otherwise.

Good for Scottie for confirming what we all saw.

I'll be honest, as much as Barton was smiling afterward, I wondered if he got hit at all. I guess he was just laughing about the flop.

Good game great effort we really need more basketball IQ on this team. Atheletism will win u some but the tough close games u gotta have basketball IQ and we lack in that area.

 

[firestorm]

wouldnt matter they can make free throws pretty good

Yep.

 

[865dude]

As an outside observer, can I say that you guys have some of the most delusional, whiny, and idiotic posters I have ever seen. Take the #1 team to the wire "coach sucks, fire him". Seriously, U.T. played a great game, but Florida is a number 1 team for a reason. The game could have gone either way with a few more made jumpers. McRae wen 1-5 from the outside and missed on some good looks. No one wants to see U.T. in their bracket as a lower seed, and yet, still, nothing but complaining. Also you need to figure out if you hate the coach because he is losing with good players or that he isn't recruiting good players. There seems to be a divide in the haters.

The refs done it. I seent them take points of the board

 

[Freak]

How is an 11 seed better than a 9 seed?

Because you wouldn't get a No. 1 seed in the second round.

 

[HialeahGator]

What did he do other than show the ref what happened? He didn't mouth off,

He didnt get the T for showing the ref...it what he said after Adams got last word. Couldnt see from the angle but something was said. Maybe Adams just wanted the last say. :shrug: GREAT game. Vols a will be an issue in the dance, if this squad comes to play.

If Pearl was the coach, we wouldn't be talking about going to the NCAA tournament as we would be ineligible.

I'm sorry but if Pearl was the coach of this team we would be talking about are we going to be a 1 seed or 2 seed.

 

[InVOLuntary]

You just play on in that situation.

Two point game, four minutes left and it's still anyone's game.

Just play on....it's not like the ref is going to overturn the call because Maymon objected.

We were getting screwed. He knew it. He knew his coach wasn't going to do anything about it. His frustration boiled over. Simple as that.

 

[casetopia]

So tired of getting jobbed by refs at the end of close games. Football and basketball.

If Georgia wins the T then is UT still a lock ?

 

[DeansRedHalo]

Barton shouldn't be allowed to smile for the rest of the week after that boneheaded flagrant.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

We'd be banned from postseason play genius.

Probably so, but it was too early to essentially quit.

Why are you ignoring BTO? Pay up.

Boom goes the dynamite.

[FLVOL_79]

I am beginning to think the Smokey Grey jerseys are a bad idea..

What has been the difference without him?
