    Golden is going to have to figure out soon that he needs to implement a good defense in this league

    It does seem like they’re allowed more latiude with physical defense inside - but it often looks that way to me , so may just be my fan bias.

    Knecht is eating our guards alive. Put Haugh on him.

    Even if they win, I don't believe in Tennessee basketball.

    Well, only made 7 shots with 25% shooting. We're lucky to only be down 14 with them hitting nearly 62% of their shots.

    These last 3 minutes will make or break it. We're hanging on by a thread.

    Heading to 0-5 in Q1 games.

    10-8 isn’t getting us in the tournament at this point. Although lots of people who don’t understand Selection Sunday will say otherwise.

    I wouldn’t expect to be down 20 at half.

    That arena is maybe half filled due to the snow. This would have been the time to get them at home.

    Tennessee has succeeded in slowing Florida down into a half court set, which is not our strength. Need to figure a way to either speed up the game, or knock down shots in the half court offense.

    Knect has the same number of FG's as Florida does.
    UF: 7/30
    UT: 16/26

    Knect: 7/8 - 16 pts.

    Vols also out rebounding the Gators: 19 to 16.

    At some point it becomes clear that SEC refs allow teams to body on high screens, body under the basket, and generally will let teams play extremely physical basketball rather than foul players out. Not fun hoops to watch for me but that is the game and if we can’t adjust then we will continue to get bullied. You are right about Samuels multiple times this game.

    Did you know that Jimmy Dykes thinks he's a NBA caliber player?

    It looks like more than half, and it's still hostile regardless.

    Well, during Ole Miss game, many said many teams we play seemingly play their best game, shoot lights out, etc.
    Kind of prophetic, it seems.

    The same kid apparently had 36 points last game.
