I had to turn it off, but I saw where Santi missed the opportunity to put it away  |

Phillips could have dunked it and put the game away....Then Santi misses the front end of a 1&1....Then he leaves his man open in the corner for the game winner...There was a lot that cost us that game before the last 15 seconds.

Got a feeling this team won't sniff the top 10 again this season. This time last week they were ranked 2nd in the country...Lol

Some days you get the bear, some days it gets you. Just don't understand why when these guys get to Knoxville they forget how to shoot. Most of them scored pretty well in high school.

I wonder if they just get wore down. Playing that hard of defense takes it’s toll maybe. |

They did not see any defense in high school. |

I thought this team had the opportunity to have the best offensive of the Barnes era.

I think Phillips & to a lesser extent Mashak are the missing link(s). Phillips is apparently so timid offensively he won't take a dunk to seal the game at Vandy. Santiago & Key aren't very intimidating guards. I'm afraid we are in danger of coming totally unraveled the next couple weeks. |

Didn't see the game, unfortunately. I know Vandy always plays us tough there, but this is disappointing for sure.

I listened to the game. It seems to me this was a failure of the defense. We shot just as well in this game than we did vs UGa. Little bit of a fluke, added in. But I'd say one of the first times our D let us down.

We had no real answer to their big guy (who could also hit treys) and collapsing on him opened up the 3 point line, which they exploited big time Having Zakai in foul trouble didn't help and when he got back in the game I felt he pressed too much Our offense, while scoring better, was disjointed all night The only reason we had a lead was Vescovi caught fire and had around 10 straight points |

Its amazing teams can have a good big man and even Vandy had one that hurt us....Bruins Barnes hasn't had one more than very average in the 8 years he's been at UT.

I just thought it was a funny dig at Barnes by TNPhil. I like Barnes. He has been great for UT. Would love to see him win it all & get that monkey off his back. |

I'd just like to see him get out of the first weekend...Something he's only done 1 time in the last 14 years. With this team the odds is its going to be 1 out of 15. Pretty sad for a top 5 paid coach in the country.

We'll go 1-5 over these last 6 if we don't get our shizzle together. Even back in December, I kept looking at our backloaded schedule and knew February would be a challenge. But I didn't expect a complete meltdown.  |

This team was down 17 at one point in the second half, at home as a double digit favorite. I’m not sure that I would call this a fluky loss. My hope is that these two losses lights a fire under the team. Eh, I did forget that. Mostly cause it wasn't that big a deal.
It may not have been a big deal to you, and that’s perfectly acceptable, but to others it was/is. |

We have had at least four (4) bad loses already, none seem to have had any kindling associated with them |
