surely we'll pull this out... right?

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

We've definitely reverted back to early season Tennessee. Sub-par defense and terrible shot selection. Mcrae playing terrible as well.

Ugh

 

[LotteryPick]

Not so sure.

Stokes has got to find his game pretty quick.

He needs to go up strong with the ball. He has played decent outside of that.

 

[TrueOrange]

It's getting there. They're too rattled to do anything.

yeah. but another part's...how poorly this team's played away from home looks like it might be showing up again

was telling someone earlier that other than UF, our wins away from TBA amount to Charminade.....and then none again until LSU and USCe in the last 2 weeks

 

[stephenk24]

We wouldn't be in this situation if the multi level thunder dome of power was built...

 

[GAVol]

How is it subpar defense when the other team is shooting 38%?

 

[utvolkyle06]

When they miss we must push quickly up court to disrupt that zone

 

[DAVOL]

when was the last time we had a basket within 8 feet of the goal?

 

[UTodd01]

Looks bleak right now

Maybe Golden can come through with some heroics - otherwise it looks like we are headed to the National Invitation

 

[ttocswob]

Only down 2, as ugly as it is...can win this thing if somebody steps up.

 

[TennesseeOrange]

Bollocks! This game is frustrating.

Very true.

 

[TrueOrange]

or let's just not throw it way out of bounds when we have the ball

 

[trevols81]

This is how we have played all season against the 2-3 zone. If we hit outside shots it's no problem.

 

[UTodd01]

And then I get reminded that we have to deal with Mizzou next year in conference...yay.

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

I hate trolls

 

[Mullins2010]

Lets go guys

Ole Miss has done whatever they've wanted inside this half.

 

[GAVol]

I agree. I'd like to see Golden push it when possible. I'll take a few turnovers in return for some easy baskets.

 

[GetEmVols]

We will lose because we keep trying to shoot 3's. As she would say, push it inside!

 

[TrueOrange]

Very true.

yeah, it's kinda why last week i'd have rather the team be in line to play UF than vandy

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

Get Mcrae out.

 

[LotteryPick]

Wow.
