1. B.s. hook and hold double tech on pj changed the game, it was initiated by Tennessee player.
2. Elbow into PJ jaw was a flagrant tech on William's, no call. B.s.
3. One ref was gonna call a charge on Williams and instead choked on his whistle and took a way a foul on Williams and let the other ref call the block on Travis.
4. Keldon was called for a bs charge that took away a 3 from pj.
5. What was the bs technical on the bench on UK,? barnes could have been call for T several times arguing calls.
6. That bs touch foul in Travis when he was defending in the low block against William's. Was just standing there and touched his back.
7. The last spin move on base line on by Williams was a hook and an offensive foul, instead they call the foul on Travis.

Many people would just say that this is 'sour grapes'. But, even the most cynical would have to admit that AT LEAST 3 or 4 of these are REAL complaints !!!

I'm really considering it. It is reaching the depths of pro wrestling at this point. If the games aren't decided by refs then the point spread usually is at least.

I'm OK with the flagrant decision but It was positively an offensive foul any way you cut it.

I agree. The rest, though, are pretty spot on, unfortunately. Look, UT hit some big shots. Thing is, they were setup by the zebras to do so. That's as big of a hose job as a hose job can be. No way someone could watch that game and tell me it was called the same on both ends. Refs completely took over this game.

Really thinking about just canceling plans to go to the SECT next year. I would've been furious had we made the trip this year to watch that **** show. It's truly unbelievable the terrible whistle we've gotten since 2010. Honestly mind blowing.

3,4,6 and 7 were all horrendous calls.

I think the hook flagrant on PJ was initiated by him. Having said that there was bad calls both ways during the game but the refs reared their ugly head toward UT at the end. Completely changed the game.

That's the problem with the hook and hold. It is rarely clear who started it.

Conspiracy theorists will say that this game was "influenced" in order to make way for the Auburn vs. UT final with the dramatic storyline of Bruce Pearl coaching against his old team. The powers that be and media love those types of storylines and drama.

The officiating was awful and totally in favor of UT. However you have nothing to say when you give up a 18 to 6 run during the final 3 minutes. This was all on us not the refs.

Too many mental mistakes, too many dumb plays. Too many missed FTs. Points left on the floor are the end of you against good teams and this team leaves a lot of points on the court.

Basically FTs made and 3's made are the cause of this loss. That and really bad decision making in the final 3 minutes.

The veteran team beat the more talented team. Again we have to do something about this all freshman lineup thing.

We turned an 8 point lead into a 1 point deficit in 90 seconds with terrible offense and even worse defense. Tennessee got 3 WIDE open looks and hit them. Herro did nothing at all in the last 10 minutes but act as a turnstile on the defensive end and travel like a panicked middle schooler on that inbounds. We deserved to lose. Calipari is a ******* disaster in situations like this. Our half court offense is an embarrassment. If we don’t grow up fast we will get bounced by an experienced 7 seed in the 2nd round.
