Seen people on this board call this a bubble elimination game. tVols have been very active so far. Auburn isn't being patient enough on offense

I hate UT, but I've gotta say they look like a tournament team. They crash the boards, move the ball well, and are very active defensively

Bruce is sweating through another suit

I'm surprised at Auburn's performance. Maybe the moment is too big for their young guys. Idk if it was smart for Bruce to be talking about what's at stake in the locker room pregame

That's an understatement. . . One pass (often zero) and launch, open or not.
Seems their best weapon is Wiley but the guards are just looking to shoot.

Tennessee is undersized. Wiley should touch the ball every possession

Auburn probably point shaving again

Tennessee's team is just as young. They also don't have 4 and 5 star recruits like Auburn. Pearl is once again getting out coached.

Auburn is looking lazy on defense. That inbounds bucket was too easy
Posted on 1/31/17 at 9:15 pm to TomRollTideRitter
UT might move the ball in the half court better than any team in the conference

a lot of truths in that. Barnes has gotten a lot out of his guys in relation to their ranking coming out of HS.

Tennessee is incredibly impressive right now. For a team full of young guys, they sure attack and move the ball with confidence. They aren't thinking at all - they are playing on offense like a mature, veteran team.
Really can't get over how good they look.

This is not surprising. AU has looked either really good or really bad all year. 5 of our top 6 players are freshman and we just haven't been consistent. UT is obviously being coached very well. They execute in the half court just as good as anyone I have seen most of the year and they are playing freshman as well.

I've been pleasantly surprised by this team this year. After our first game, I thought we'd win 10 games at best this year.

UT looks legit, glad we got that road game out of the way already and have them at home.

I'd be disappointed with Auburn's effort. UT has play very well, but Auburn has given them some really easy buckets and been outworked on the boards

It's not often you see a team of young guys process things on offense that well and that quickly. And they are playing with confidence.
Auburn, on the other hand, is doing their bad game street ball act.

I mean that is what you get with Bruce Pear. It's fine if he has players like Lofton who can bail them out on offense, but as far as half court offense goes it's abysmal to watch.

We look like an AAU team that went to a strip club the night before a morning game.
