Vandy didn't choke. The refs gave this game to UT..plain and simple. ONE guy shot 23..TWENTY THREE free throws for Tennessee..and he only truly should have gotten maybe 12. Two charging fouls called blocking fouls on Vandy. A horrendous flagrant 1 called on Vandy.

If UT gets calls like that the rest of the season, nobody will beat them. They won't get those calls the rest of the season though and UK may sweep them this season..yeah, I said it. The refs have saved UT against Bama and now against Vandy.

Makes me loose faith in college ball. That was some crooked *** **** right there . waaaay crooked. This hook and hold is being widely abused by the stripes . But on that play , even if you say there was a hook, there never was a hold .

TN ought to feel like giant killers now. It seems they are becoming dependent....
Tennessee has been getting by by the skin of their teeth. Sooner or later they are gonna get burned

Why would you all not want UT coming into Rupp with the #1 ranking? I don't get why so many want UT to lose before they come here. It's a great opportunity that we rarely get to play the top ranked team at home. Not to mention, they lose and Duke becomes 1 again.
Because I want UK to have a chance at a one seed and win the SEC. I don’t give two ***** about UT being number one when coming to Rupp.

Does anyone believe UT is not going to become a fleeting media darling? As long as it is expedient for the ncaa/media they will become the Cinderella team this season...on paper anyway...take it any way you can get it I guess...[eyeroll]

It's really not a matter of what I want. Vandy got royally screwed. This is so diametrically opposed to what I'm used to when we go in there it is shocking.

Been trash for a while. It’s why I barely ever watch anymore. Used to watch every game I could.

People around here have their opinions about the NBA, but it's a much cleaner game to watch. That much is indisputable. I used to watch mid-major games all the time when nothing was really on. I couldn't fathom doing that now.

This is dumb. You clearly didn’t watch the game if you think he was only fouled 6 times.

The crybaby ref ******** is getting so ridiculous around here.

Disagree. Up 6 with under two minutes. All they had to do was play smart. Too Careless with the ball.

I think I hate this UT team more than Duke. Didn't think that was possible

It will all come out in the tournament. Things are called a little better then. You can almost tell which teams were helped as they flame out..(Almost but it is a factor...)

It is not "dumb". Did you watch the game, bud ? I watched every second of it. Truly one of the dumbest comments ever. Are you a UT fan ?

The end of the game is not indicative as to how the game was called to get it to that point...

Yep, huge UT fan...you nailed it!!

Your statement is dumb as hell if you think Williams only deserved 12 FTs.

If you think that flagrant was legit then you need to get your eyes checked. I get missing the occasional block/charge but when you go to the monitor and reward a blatant flop with a flagrant, that's something else. It literally cost Vandy the game.

And quickly got cut down to a 2 point lead because of a bogus flagrant foul. Ended up being a 4 point possession for UT. Grant Williams shot more free throws than the entire Vandy team !

Tennessee still has some tough road games coming up they aren’t going undefeated. Besides UK they still have to go to LSU, Ole Miss and Auburn. South Carolina too. None of those will be easy.

Ummm..two charges called blocking fouls..and his two and 1s should have been a charging foul and the other he wasn't even touched on. The flagrant foul was garbage..so that's five off of his 23. He wouldn't have even shot his final 2 free throws if the refs would have let the game end in regulation like it should have. So make that 7 off of his 23. Would you like me to give you more examples ?

Because the talking heads know that UT really isn't the #1 and it matters nothing to them or the people who make the final call. They know that they wont be #1 for long. Plus....UT sucks and they are orange!!!

I think Vandy got hosed at the end there, but no worse than we did at Auburn. Vandy couldn’t handle Grant though, and for some reason was slow to double when he was literally UTs only offense!

Do I feel sorry for Vandy? Lol. Literally least favorite team in the SEC, so nah.

Good news for UK, UT is very beatable when Schofield is having a bad game. He’s been very streaky this year. Bad news, our luck stinks, so we’ll get a very different UT when they play us smh.

Calling the F1 on the rebound and nothing on the elbow to the head at the end is a small sample of why college basketball is a dying brand. It has become so bad that it is now normal.

LOL about the whining about the refs

What'd you all say when the UT guy was clobbered on the late run out in regulation. Let me guess. Great block.

And claiming Williams was pulled off-balance to the floor landing hard on his hip was a flop. The real flop was the play in OT where everyone of you called charge and the refs saw it right.

And at the end when Bone was grabbed around the waist and whirled around by the Vandy guy who caught the elbow as he pulled him down, most were calling for an F1 on Bone.

You guys are hilarious.

If the Cats want the number 1 seed their destiny is in their hands. They don't need any help from anyone.

That was a great block

Williams didn’t flop, but it didn’t warrant an F1

Typically elbowing someone in the head warrants some type of flagrant or at least a foul

Rocky Top is the gayest song on the planet

It was. It was all ball..and if there was any body contact, it was very minimal.
