The Official Tennessee vs. Mercer Game Thread, 6:10 pm ET(03/23/14), TNT

Why could they not play at this level all year? Same players.

Doesn't matter. Cheer them on and let the season play out.

Charles Barkley is a freaking moron, saying we got lucky to be in the tourney.

Always has been but he does say some funny stuff every now and then.

Barkley - "Vols haven't had a close game yet. They're just mauling people."

awesome

 

[ttocswob]

Over to the crow thread for a generous helping...

Charles Barkley is a freaking moron, saying we got lucky to be in the tourney.

He also said UT would go far in the tourney

 

[YorkVol]

Good game Vols!

 

[1985Vols]

Clark Kellogg just said Tennessee is playing as well as any team in the tourney

That's true

 

[PowerOrange]

wut????

Shot like 30%, 0 for 6 three point shooting, and almost fouled out. That is not good for anyone then add the fact that he is Jordan Mcrae.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Great night so far. Almost time for The Walking Dead!

Charles has actually been one of our more vocal supporters. He loves Stokes. Sings his praises consistently.

Pregame picked Mercer, I don't believe he remembers what he says.

:good!: LOL!

 

[Dave1967]

Bring on Michigan it's time to skin the Wolverines! UT can beat UM by pounding the ball on them inside.

Barkley is def not a moron at all, though I do agree that didn't really make any sense. I guess he means we were very close to not making it? I don't know, but he did have us making the sweet 16, so he definitely thinks we have a strong team.

but the good thing is Rich and Barton picked his play up

 

[ToptheTerrible]

Ease off on CBark....dude is a walking cartoon.

 

[UT_Dutchman]

Wouldn't you know John Adams is the coordinator of ncaa officials! All the fouls against us make sense now.

 

[VolNExile]

Where's Catbone? :dance2:

 

[fall2hb86]

Richardson has played like an All American in this tourney..I just feel good for the players, the coaching staff and those that continue to pull for the team

 

[orangefloyd]

This team has lived up to preseason expectations. The path they took wasn't expected though.

I guess he could be faking it and playing it up. I've heard him argue politics before. Man was he clueless on that.

 

[ToptheTerrible]

Omg that act like UNC could have won the game.... It was Hail Mary at best. Stop crying tar heels...... And I went there!
