UT was a complete embarassment for not only the team but the SEC. Losing by 19 points as a #2 seed really stunk up the place. There was no real game plan by UT just run and throw up the ball off balance not looking for an open teammate. I know the SEC was weak this year but I never throught they were this weak. Dont say that UL cause them to look bad because Louisville made numerous turnovers and Tennesse could not take advandage of them because they would just run down the court and turn it right back over. Pitiful.

I agree.... Where are all the UT fans at now when you need them cause they had a lot to say a couple of weeks ago. All that hype for nothing, UT sucks!!! hahaha. Now for the truth, UT never had a real PG or center, so how far did anyone except them to go?? They relied on athleticism alone to get them to this point, and nothing else. They remind of me of Duke in a way, cause when 3 point shots are not falling then they look like an average team. Better luck next year UT bums!!!!!!!!!!! Oh and by the way,,,,, GO HEELS!!!

Basketball mecca my a**. When Memphis loses either tonight or sunday we will finally be rid of the hype that was Tennesse basketball. Good teams. Not great. Bow down to your basketball gods at UNC. You are mortal after all.

The bigger issue here is what happened to Bruce Pearl? There is an 8-point deficit about 12 minutes through the second half and he pulls Jajuan and Tyler Smith? Those are his two best overall players and with the game still close he makes a dumb move. As those two Smith's were sitting Louisville goes on a run and puts the game out of reach. Maybe he succumbed to Pitino.

That game was hideous to watch. Everytime I turned to it UT was throwing some shot off the backboard and were one and done each time down the court. That was poor play and poor coaching at its finest.

Classless?? Im just speaking the truth.. I can say the same about the UT fans were talking trash about UNC and how they would get blowed out by UT. Well I guess will never find out cause ya'll cant get pass UL. So you can save that talk about how classless UNC fans are. Stick to football, and dont post nothing else about UT basketball!!

In a game like this you bet on the coach. Sorry TN Lousville's coach won that game by 19pts, the talent was even.

UL's defense made them look bad. UL did play sloppy on the offensive end with too many turnovers - UT plays pretty tough D. Play this game 10 times and UL wins 9 of them. Cards are quite a bit better than UT.

Go bills- your an idiot. UT basketball has just started. Yes we did have a lot of holes this year. We can only get better. But don't blame us for being able to watch sports all year cause we are half way decent at other sports besides basketball. Good luck to the rest of the teams in the tourney. Sorry to hear about you classless fans for all the UNC fans that do have class. and yes there are several just not on the boards.

And I'll say it again...
UofL made UT look bad.
The $-E-Z did not prepare UT for a team like Louisville that could match their athleticism and dominate them inside on both ends with size and physicality.
UofL made UT look like a mid major team from a mid major conference.
That second half dunk-a-thon sure was a lot of fun! T-Will's over-the-head dish to Captain Padgett for the slam was SWEET!
All the whiney Yewkay fans are just pathetic. Crying like their coach Billie Jean Gaylesspee.

I'm just glad I don't have to see those stupid head-bands anymore from Tenn. They were over-rated all year and played in a weak SEC this year.

I must say I was surprised by the way Louisville handled Tenn last night, HOWEVER, I dont think all the tarheel fans should start cawwing about Tenn, when they have yet to play Louisville.
This tourney is playing out that the Big East, in numbers, had very good teams, and the SEC did not. Based on the fact the Tenn went out in the SEC tourney, you could have predicted this outcome last night, especially when going against a very good coach.
There are no real surprises here, UNC is where they are supposed to be and most knew that Xavier had a better team than Duke, and UCLA had the easiest road (and even struggled some), the one thing we did not know was how good Louisville has become, and now we know.
I am very interested in seeing Pitino against Roy on Sat, thats a great matchup.

They looked off-balance on offense and unprepared overall -- really a poor job by Bruce last night. Why change point guards in March?

God, please, not another SEC fan rooting for the conference over their own team!! What is it with you rednecks? Get over the whole conference thing and start rooting for your own team. Everywhere else teams within a conference hate each other. The SEC fans on the other hand act as if they are all one big happy family (where everyone kisses their sister). UCLA fans hate USC, Oklahoma fans hate Texas, Ohio State fans hate Michigan and Duke fans Hate UNC. Everything changes when you get to the Southeastern Conference however. Tennessee emabarrased THE CONFERENCE?? Are you freaking kidding me? For your information the Vols were the only good thing to come out of that conference this season. The rest of your teams sucked. SEC basketball is pathetic.
As for "BillsFan"? Dude, your use of the English language is scary. Please try not to type the way you speak. Its embarrasing for both UNC and the State of North Carolina.
Go Cards!!!

Ummm, you start to lose credibility when your bashing Tenn for being a mid-major, or whatever, considering Xavier is in the Final Eight, and Memphis and Davidson play tonight, and Western Kentucky didnt bow out easily last night. Teams from mid-majors or whatever you call them are doing just fine.
