I have to ask, what is Holly wearing? That shirt is awful, and she's been getting a lot of face time throughout this game.

 

[MSGRET]

Officials changed the call and Holly is PO'd and telling the ref off.

 

[LETTERL]

My bracket will suffer its first major wound.

 

[Orangutan]

There's that vaunted Tennessee 4th quarter poise.

Tennessee calls a timeout to reflect on her tenure at Tennessee. It was fun while it lasted.

 

[triaddukefan]

what happened? The vols were up.... i went to make a fish sammich.... and came back they were down 8

 

[MSGRET]

Turn off the lights the party's over, bye-bye Holly and Tennessee.

 

[biobioprof]

Dumb foul for Tennessee there should put the nail in the coffin

I thought that was a weak call ... but the Vols have done plenty of other dumb things to let UCLA retake the lead and pull away. Like letting one player go coast to coast after the stoppage for that review. And the turnovers.

Tenn with the matador defense

Not much defense at all this quarter

Holly said she is going back to the basics (bootcamp) in the Summer.

More helpful coaching school.

Do they have a summer academy for coaches?

Rebounding and defense. LOL

How to coach both offense and defense? Maybe it will be on how to conduct a press conference!

 

[wbball novice]

With its 3Q comeback, Tenn somewhat justified its charity seeding, but the carriage is now pumpkin orange.

 

[nwhoopfan]

They cut away before the game was over for pregame of Gonzaga v. UALR.


edit--I guess it wasn't pregame, just made sure they were there in time for the opening tip.

 

[Orangutan]

Tennessee fouling down 11 with less than 10 seconds to go. They just want to prolong the pain, I guess.

EDIT: And then Westbrook runs up and airballs a 3. Their final FGA of the season being an airball is a fitting end to Tennessee's season.

Westbrook ending with an unnecessary, rushed airball seems like an appropriate metaphor for the game, and for Tennessee's season in general.

 

[MSGRET]

Between the two, the least incompetent coach won UCLA 89 Tenn 77.

 

[bballnut90]

Another wasted season by Holly. Fingers crossed the administration can grow a pair and give her boot.

 

[eebmg]

Can't ask for more

TN pathetic in Q1
TN stabilizes in Q2
TN looks unusually good in Q3 and most of Q4 with Westbrook looking like an elite PG
Last 3 minutes, some horrible turnovers (6 in total) by Westbrook just turns the game on a dime.

See you guys next year.

Ha, you wrote that before I could edit my original post to say the same thing!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Gonzaga up 7-0 less than 2 minutes into the game.

Probably had that post prepared before the game started.

Wow same here, TN was up 59-58, I made a tuna sandwich, spent time outside with the grandson, came back in and UCLA was up 10 and on the way to their victory. Weird.

 

[nwhoopfan]

UCLA is gonna have to play better than that if they want to beat Maryland. Played fairly poorly for a good chunk of Q2 and Q3.


I didn't see any of the Syracuse game. Managakahia was 2 rebounds short of a triple double.


UALR looks hapless so far. Grossly overseeded as a 12 it looks like. GU got a gift. Zero points and constant turnovers halfway thru Q1. 11-0 Zags lead. I gotta think the 13 seed that host Oregon St. will face in the next game is a better team than UALR.

Thanks, now I want a tuna sandwich...
