Vols up 21-20, five and a half remaining.

Thanks for score update

 

[TennesseeFan07]

He does nothing but talk about how terrible both teams are, it is beyond annoying

He does have a point, however. That said, he should be doing a lot better job of promoting this game.

 

[tnvols72]

I love meeting people. Not a badass either.

oh , I didnt know you was suppose to be a badass

 

[OrangeBalls]

Kyle Macy sucks as bad as Larry Connelly. I guess they think if they're Ky guys then they know basketball. Trying to articulate it to an audience is another matter.

 

[YankeeVol]

Another offensive foul....this is pathetic

 

[King Webbsticles]

You rarely see a charge when the defender jumps too.

 

[underscore]

Last four trips down the floor, McBee's man has taken wide open shots with pornstache pitifully chasing.

 

[YankeeVol]

These refs are freakin atrocious.

I think it's the teams

 

[Spartacavolus]

Horrible F'n call. My God. The guy left his feet. That is pathetic.

You can leave your feet and still take a charge if you are going straight up. I think it was a good call. Tatum should have pulled up or kicked.

 

[King Webbsticles]

Another bad call.

You technically can't have a charge call that close to the baseline. That's a rule

 

[dovervolz]

futher evidence that these refs are stupid, a charge requires a defender to plant his feet

:whistling:

 

[fall2hb86]

I heard Coach Martin explain why he keeps Tatum in the lineup and it was explained very well...But as a fan or anyone just watching basketball, its hard to believe that this dude should be playing at all...

 

[AllVolYall]

gay insurance pitch

 

[OrangeBalls]

I think it's the teams

It is, but the refs aren't helping. When a guy clearly leaves his feet and the ref calls a charge then it's comical. He was a good 6 inches off the ground. It wasn't like it was even close.

 

[Chris4Vols22]

That charge call on Tatum was absolutely terrible. I love how a home-court advantage doesn't exist at TBA.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

i think if he dunks it they call a block jmo

 

[MY3*VOLS]

You rarely see a charge when the defender jumps too.

very rare in SEC officiating

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Agreed. The problem is Tatum made the worst possible decision outside of stopping, turning, and punting the ball into the stands

Except that the kid jumped into him to try and block the shot at the last second and was simply caught in the air. These refs blow.

 

[YankeeVol]

Regardless of the explanation, Tatum sucks and shouldn't be playing. Only problem is there isn't anyone any better really

 

[underscore]

STILL 21-20 vols since the last score update 2 hours ago.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

who's man was that?

 

[underscore]

Check that, McBee's man hit a wide-open three.. 23-21 Cocks.

 

[YankeeVol]
