The total is interesting. Based on history, it's spot on. Bama just doesn't score against TN.

Which makes me wonder...how do they attack the Vols today.

There are two lineups they can go with: big and defense or let's shoot. The first one favors UT in my view. "Let's shoot," as well as these guys have been shooting on the road?

There are things that affect life: like Krispy Kreme and Phil. I've developed a hatred for Ziegler hot dogs.

In the 2 games last year, UT averaged 86, Bama 72. 3pt shooting, we averaged 19% at TB arena and 24% at home. We took 58 three-point attempts between the two games. We turned it over 22 times in Knoxville, mind you that’s more flags than we had in the football game there, somehow. Only 12 TOs at home. They had 7 and 6, much better ball control.

They play great D against the three-point shot. We will win though, if we get hot from deep. If we don’t, the path is slim to none. I’m glad Dalton is gone, that’s for sure!

Tuesday's output bothers me on that run. They got rest.

Shot fakes. Remain disciplined on D and don't bite on TN trying to shoot on the first shot. If you watch our previous games vs them, we get completely disoriented on D and have a tendency to jump into the shooter. I think if TN shoots off the first swing or bounce pass, let them. I would say statistically, they'd be less efficient and just work on not allowing blow bys. Ziegler is annoying as shit but an amazing guard. And TN is a lot better from 3 this season because of how he facilities.

I'm wanting to bet with my heart. If Sears is under control, we win by 10.

They need Sears to be as wild as he can be. Paint. push outside.

I think they are going offense.

I'm very confused how that last one was a foul. The guy drove in wasn't touched with a free layup and he missed it and fell down and it was a foul on us? We didn't even touch the guy lol

Also Ziegler should've got a Flagrant 1 he was clearly tugging on Philon to stop the scoring opportunity

Playing in Knoxville.

Vol'n'Tears defense = if they aint bleeding it aint a foul.

These refs are ridiculous. Not letting either team play. Combined 13 fouls in 8 minutes.
