Davis is still getting too much PT. Tolu kills us in key possessions. Reed and Shaq need most of guard minutes period.

We are cursed as a basketball team. Unreal. We hit 3s and FT tonight but UT gets hotter than anyone. Aub game the same way except we can't hit jack.
Ball game
UTK just got nuclear from 3. Tough. 8-10 this half by my count
Tenn shooting over 44% from field over 40% from 3 and over 90% from FT, but some here think we should be winning. They're so much better than us... it's not even close.
College Basketball is more of a recruiting game then ever. And State is below the curve.
They are better than we are even without Key and Vescovi.
Our season is over after tonight. I hate it. This team is better than this debacle in SEC.
Yes they are more talented than we are, but they are missing 2 starters, and only playing one point guard so they aren't at full strength.. would have been nice if we could have taken advantage of that. Thats all I'm sayingQuote:

I've said all year. Moore and Matthews are our best two players.
They are only four points below their game average even without the 20+ per game Key and Vescovi bring. They just have more talent.
Tenn shooting 45.1%Quote:

Moore had a career night. How we supposed to beat a better team that's shooting like that?
I'm done with basketball though. This program brings nothing but grief to my life
Yea its going to be tough crawling out of this whole. We will be 1-5 in conference play after tonight. Still have to play Bama again, Arkansas, TCU, LSU, Texas AM (undefeated in conference play) and even Mizzou who are better than everyone thought.Quote:

We aren't disagreeing. I stated that they are more talented. But they were short handed and the score was 46-46 with 8 minutes left so we had our chance despite those numbers.Quote:

I just bought these to help me enjoy the remaining games. Will let y'all know how well they work.

Yeah. We're not winning eight of the last thirteen. I can't even see that with the glasses on.
It’s the most important game of the next 3 for sure. Win that and we still have a chance if we can go 7-3 with the back half of the schedule. Need to beat USC twice, Ole Miss and win the 5 home games which non of those are top 25 teamsQuote:

Last 2 games, auburn and Tenn both shot over 40% from 3 when they normally shoot low 30s. We just can't catch a break
