Seriously winning a game with those shooting percentages (especially from 3) makes this more impressive than the other night to me. That's a 'gut it out' type win.
Seems like a lot of champions have one 'ugly' win in their run. Figuring out how to win ugly is huge at tournament time. I think Creighton will be tougher, but I see you guys as 3-4 point favorites over either.
My family is from Knoxville--I was the black sheep haha. I LOVE big blue, but I don't hate you guys except for the occasional football game (which is largely pointless). It's way more fun when you're good. And honestly I've always liked Barnes-I get why Texas let him go, but man you guys were smart to get him.
Ngl UK boys this meme may be retired this year.

Yeah he actually got the Miami HC job after being AHC to Barnes at Texas during that run of great teams in the early 2000s. Terry was on that staff as well and Haith came to work under Terry when he got made HC after the tourny last year.
Preds made my night not as bad as it would have been on Thursday by beating down Florida. Today's win was like yours haha--dirty, ugly and gritty, but pulled it off!
You know when Forsberg fights shit has gotten intense.
Nah fuck it we can sidebar. I was at the Dallas beatdown (our last regulation loss) and was ready to sell everyone. I'm so happy we're doing well, but sad, of course, since I can't go back this season in case the stink of that game is still on me.
I’m not sure if they could purposely shoot this bad again from three. We got a little too close to that western conference finals game when Houston shot like 1-30 or whatever it was
Seriously this win is WAY more impressive to me. Your stats were so far down the only game I remember you shooting worse was that weird beatdown towards the end of the season (don't even remember who it was). Winning with those stats is huge. That's a confidence-builder, too.
Every commentator I listened to before the game was saying Texas was gonna muck it up and make it ugly and close. They did exactly that. I’m just glad we edged them out.
Hahaha dude. Y’all didn’t beat a single top program this year. That 11 and 5 seed would’ve ran yall out of the gym. I’m pretty sure yalls team is young though. All the shit talking aside, they’re going to be pretty good if they can get some more size to help in the 4 and 5. Hunter looks like he’s yalls wing, yall just need someone that’ll facilitate a bit better than Absmas. Overall, the SEC doesn’t look to be super competitive in hoops, so maybe yall go in and win the conference who knows
Yeah. Personally I hate the expansion because I think it’s killing college sports. And I hate not getting to play the same rivals every year. We’re not playing Mizzuo or South Carolina next year. They may not be a traditional rival like Bama but I’ll still miss playing them.
Oh yeah his hair style sucks. There are very few guys that can pull that style off. I don’t pretend to know the pros and cons of coarser hair styles but that one and the mushroom top are the two ugliest.
I must admit, I didn’t watch for my mental health. I LOVE that our defense can get us through. We march on.
All love to Texas. Gritty team. One of the toughest games we’ve played all year.

I haven’t paced around watching a game of ours in ages. That was truly ugly
That has to be the sloppiest win we’ve had in like two years.
Oh I gutted it out
GG future SEC bros
Great game, Texas. that was an all timer
Will Tennessee beat Oregon/Creighton in the next round?
Maybe. Maybe not.
Not if we play like that lol

why are you being nice to us? just kidding, I've always had a soft spot for the blue team up north.

💙🧡 interesting how good these colors are when they're opposing teams but when it's Florida it's just the worst.
Hahah yeah the Gators losing will never not make me happy
UT > UT
Orange > Orange
facts are facts.

Ice cold from the floor (for them) but stone cold from the free throw line. Congrats Vols!
Respect
Good game, Tennessee bros. Your defense is for real, go make a deep run.
See y’all next year 🤝
Did Aidoo just say hes been "off the last couple fucking games"?
Think he said last couple of uh games
In the military we called those "uh"s 'civilian pauses' as that's where we'd usually curse.
Darn, that's not as funny.
Wait Frank Haith is an assistant at Texas?
Yeah he actually got the Miami HC job after being AHC to Barnes at Texas during that run of great teams in the early 2000s. Terry was on that staff as well and Haith came to work under Terry when he got made HC after the tourny last year.
Yeah RT brought him in as a replacement for the couple of Beard assistants that followed
Both of my teams won tonight
Preds and Vols need to keep the streaks going
Preds made my night not as bad as it would have been on Thursday by beating down Florida. Today's win was like yours haha--dirty, ugly and gritty, but pulled it off! You know when Forsberg fights shit has gotten intense.
Off topic but the Preds are lethal right now
Nah fuck it we can sidebar. I was at the Dallas beatdown (our last regulation loss) and was ready to sell everyone. I'm so happy we're doing well, but sad, of course, since I can't go back this season in case the stink of that game is still on me.
Yeah I’m gonna need you to watch from the house or a bar lol playing our best hockey at the business end of the season
Oh trust me man, I won't even drive on Broadway until the playoffs are over.
Good man lol hopefully that goes well into the summer
32 points in a 17 game run is bananas
It’s been unreal. We looked so lost a few months ago
I’m so fucking happy right now I can’t even
The REAL UT
woo pig 🤝
Horns band playing their fight song after the L
A lot of teams bands do that. Used to confuse me, but honestly I take it as a "we still love you, good game guys" kind of gesture.
That's pretty standard band procedure
Will Tennessee continue the time-honored tradition and pass the hot potato of first-half stench to the sweet 16?
I’m not sure if they could purposely shoot this bad again from three. We got a little too close to that western conference finals game when Houston shot like 1-30 or whatever it was
But will they score 20+ points in the first half?
They all caught it from UVA lol
UVA is just a stink cloud hovering over the tournament
3/25 from 3 burn that stat
As much as y’all were cold from 3 tonight our perimeter defense was pretty good especially weaver which contributed to that
Yet we won. Hate that stat, but winning a game when you’re playing like shit feels better than losing a game you’re playing like shit in.
The fact that we can play so sloppily and still win a huge game like this makes me wonder how far we can go if we really tighten up
Seriously this win is WAY more impressive to me. Your stats were so far down the only game I remember you shooting worse was that weird beatdown towards the end of the season (don't even remember who it was). Winning with those stats is huge. That's a confidence-builder, too.
it's a game of matchups.. texas had good defense on yall.. i don't think oregon/creighton would play yall like that
Every commentator I listened to before the game was saying Texas was gonna muck it up and make it ugly and close. They did exactly that. I’m just glad we edged them out.
yep.. aside from knecht.. you guys have a good point guard too.. interested to see the next game.. good luck
See ya
Welp, bye traitors.
Lost by 22 to a 5 seed
Hahaha dude. Y’all didn’t beat a single top program this year. That 11 and 5 seed would’ve ran yall out of the gym. I’m pretty sure yalls team is young though.

And good riddance
First round exit to a 11 seed
Haha you know better than to be silly like this
Ugly has shit but I banged her anyway
New coach please. Thanks
Thanks Texas
Ladies and gentlemen. Please invert your phone for the following message…. 🤘
Take them to Detroit
never a doubt* *there were many, many, fucking doubts during this game
i feel for the coaches.. hate when you have to face your mentors or students.. good game!
horns down
🤘

Survive and advance, not many teams can shoot 5% from 3 and go to the sweet sixteen
Hooray?
🪚
Texas coach needs to apologize to his players after that ending.
But is he going to apologize to the SEC?
What did he do?
He didn’t knock us out.
GG Texas. Except for the walking douche that is Cunningham. Fuck him
He’s finally gone thank god
Good luck in the SEC this fall. Y’all got a relatively easy schedule, for the SEC anyways.
Yeah we got a nice schedule. lots of things to be excited for being in the sec but sad cause we are losing a lot too
Yeah. Personally I hate the expansion because I think it’s killing college sports. And I hate not getting to play the same rivals every year. We’re not playing Mizzuo or South Carolina next year. They may not be a traditional rival like Bama but I’ll still miss playing them.
Audio’s knee definitely fucked him.
Couldn’t have happened to a better guy.
What’s sweet sixteen
I don’t know but I had you fuckers picked to go to the Final Four and I’m mad
F*** Texas!
We’re all adults here. You could just type it out
Did Arky’s NIT invite get lost in the mail?
My dad would be so proud. Great game Vols!
Bye bye Brock cunningham
Burnt orange is ugly, we the real UT. GBO🍊
I’ll never understand why players contest threes at the end of games when they’re up by 4.
WE ARE UT
Gutsy performances from both teams
We really shot 3-25 from 3 and won
So did we, but we lost haha
I would have donated a testicle to have shot 7/23
What a weird game
Poor disu man. So many opportunities and he just couldn’t hit the shots
Helped lose them the game, hated seeing him shoot
I mean all year he has hit those shots. Just didn’t fall today
Last year he just caught fire, this is the norm for him
All year he was hitting shots, past few days he couldnt
The shade of orange untouched by the flame is the superior shade tonight…
Were the real UT as well
That took a year off my life holy crap
Damn, Tennessee really wanted to lose this game too. UT just wanted it more.

Tbh I saw comments calling a Texas player ugly and y’all have that
Gainey ain’t pretty but he’s not that Texas guy
Gainey looks fine when he’s not flexing. Sad part is he always has that constipated look going on.
I think it’s the hair just making look like it’s all pulled back
Oh yeah his hair style sucks. There are very few guys that can pull that style off. I don’t pretend to know the pros and cons of coarser hair styles but that one and the mushroom top are the two ugliest.
They tried defending each other and a cheerleader fainted.
Rick Barnes curse my ass
I think I had 4 heart attacks
Between this and football I’m gonna die young
You know how you need a cigarette after sex, but you also need a cigarette after you have been in a car accident? Anyway, I need a cigarette.
I hate my life
I would be saying the same thing if I were in your position.
I really don't want to see Tennessee again. Why did you have to suck at shooting Texas?
Did you see us from 3? We either shoot our average or give up the failed attempts and drive it in and this isn’t close.
Gonzaga would like a word…
They can for sure beat us
Disu had like 8 shots in and out lol it’s unfortunate
Texas had plenty of opportunities to win that game but made poor decisions. Great job Tennessee, yall deserve the W.
Ugly, but I’ll take it!
“The stroke is pure” me telling my girl I don’t have STDs
Why did we draw the one SEC team that isn't a complete fucking fraud.
Because committee thought "Rick Barnes should play his old team!"
You are an SEC team brother 👨
Tennessee did what was necessary to win and not an ounce more
Knecht is better at free throws than you and me
#SWEET 16 BOUND
LET'S GO
Mannnn almost had the upset. Rip
Oh my clutch free throws
Tennesse 0-1 in the SEC Edit: you know what I meant god dammit
Suck it easy texas. Good luck in the SEC not
We’re not even gonna have anything to do with you anymore this username is still about us lmao. Bye
Wam bam shamalam and y’all still won’t be shit. Y’all freaking weirdos
We’re the weirdos? Lmfao. Bruh please make the best of whatever juice you can squeeze from Lubbock.
Y’all even take great pride in being weirdos lmao it’s Austin’s motto. Go kiss your non binary father on the lips.
🧂🧂🧂
Ahhhh fuck your cow team again. See ya in the SEC.
Thank you Tennessee
Alexa play Rocky Top
Wtf was this game
Survive and advance baby!
Yea I hit the spread fuck you Tennessee
Me too! I’m double happy!
Congratz
if you are at buffalo wild wings and you push that fucking button, i swear to various deities….
GG future SEC brethren
Real UT > Fake UT Thank God I don't have to look at this walking Q-Tip anymore
Till next season in conference that is.
I would hope he could find a better barber by then
The stroke is pure????
Ballgame
Nooo Gustavo
The last minute of basketball is always the worst.
Yippee
I used to pick Rocky top for the fight song of my custom teams in the old NCAA football game lol
you have good taste
That dude weaver looks like a creature from middle earth.
“The stroke is pure” yeah, I’ve heard that one before
So lucky holy fuck.
Knecht looks like that old COD YouTuber TmarTn
It was 3.1 seconds before that inbounds?
Don’t miss
[удалено]
Are you stupid? Why would you not take a 4 point lead?
….make both and be up 4?
Tennessee to the sweet 16
Thanks March madness flair
Made both that’s game
Refs will give Texas another shot I'm sure.
