Tennessee lost the game
Came out cold and slow having to play catch-up. Missed so many FTs
Played like crap in the OT and looked like they were panicked while Purdue never waivered even when Tennessee went on that run late in 2nd half
I happen to like Rick Barnes but he is too laid back. Matt Painter is a very underrated coach - he gets the most out of his team and is at a recruiting disadvantage with IU and all the Midwest perennial powers.
Refs had very little bearing on this game
There was a definite foul at the end of regulation on the 3 and if Purdue could hit FTs there is no OT.
Tennessee is way to athletic to lose to a team like Purdue but in this game the team under control won.

BTW- UConn could use a kid like Cline - but he doesn't fit the Dan Hurley mold of flash and dash - too bad because I feel every team needs someone like him, someone who has the confidence and [B][I]the ability [/I][/B]to take all those 3s and hit them at a 45% plus rate.
