Fight n play hard first...that's always been the true Memphis way collegiately and in the pros.

Real bball fan would know that..

Sorry your Vols got beat.

Elite effort by TN. Their length is impressive...we need some of that next yr.

I think Michigan is glad there wasn't another 30 seconds left or they would be toast.

The despicable vols would kick our ass 10 times out of 5. I hate to say it. But it's very true. I hate Tenn. to my core. What I hate most of all is that this year-out of all the years-their punk arse team would destroy our natl. champ. contenders.
Things need to get much. much better in Tiger land.

Well, I don't know. I think most elite players want to be recognized for it especially if they work hard and are coached up to reach that level. I will agree that the Tigers need to keep working at beating those other elite teams though. They seem to do pretty well with those who just have the fight.

TN fought very hard and gained a lot of respect, even in a loss. A lot different than our embarrassing loss. Not sure that Michigan is quite the equal of UVA, though.

It is all about matchups.
We've beaten them the last 3 times we have played them...and with the way UT plays...I don't think they'd beat us that many times.

How do you even come up with this stuff? They played well in spurts but also lost some funky bad games. They were about to run off their coach. The tigers beat Louisville twice if you want to go there

That was a bs call on Stokes

I'm going to nominate this for the most idiotic post of the year.

I will say, if Louisville can beat UK, the tournament will look a lot less like the NIT and more like the NCAA Tournament.

He was out of bounds. There's no question about that.

No he was not, watch replay. When his foot slid on the line he was not in contact with the ball. His foot was back inbounds before he made contact with the ball.

50/50 call. If no call is made Um has the steal and the clock is still running. If you think it should have been a block call, that would have been just as "bad" as the charge.

Maybe you can go over to VN and join their discussion on how they got screwed. I thought it was the correct call. Stokes lowered his shoulder.

If you want to talk about missed calls how about when Maymon knocked it out of bounds, they went to the monitor and still gave it to Tennessee. The Vols probably wouldn't have been in a position to win it at the end without that blown call.

UT finally plays a team with a pulse and goes home
UCONN in the Elite 8
Let's go Louisville!!!

If Martin new how to coach defense they would have won.

I still think they would have gotten the better of us this year on a neutral site.

Tonight you saw the bad side of having official refusing to call fouls on you. Final half minute of game and UT had to foul three times before Michigan shot FTs.

We're all disappointed with the Memphis loss, but you're talking two teams on two entirely different levels.

Nominate all you want. The truth hurts. it hurts me too.
If you really believe we could even compete with them this season, I'm not the idiot here.
They just went toe to toe with the big 10 champs. We would have lost by 25.
