Tough loss.

[OldDude]

Stute is 1 for 9 from 3 in two SEC games and a problem at the foul line. This is our shooter ?

[commadore]

They call the goal tend and it is 81 all with 3.4 seconds. Man they screwed us.

[Laker42]

Was fun to watch. Goaltend was a game changer. Im excited about watching this team. Hopefully bball gods are looking down and we get some breaks later

[Nashmann]

Awful play by Wright at the end and poor coaching at the end too. Team overall played better. Save those timeouts Stack.

[docdore]

good effort down to the wire against a good team on the road....better than expected and something to possibly build on.... but an l nevertheless.

I wish I could see this over but whenever something is on CBS I never get to find a replay. I had a conflicting appointment. I only got to see the very end.

[DonYates]

Nice showing by our guys, but we missed way too many shots in crunch time. The refs didn't do us any favors either. As usual, there is a massive difference in the number of fouls called between the visitor and home team. And that goal tend no-call may have been the backbreaker.

[Nashmann]

Stute's free throw shot sucks and he doesn't work for shots ends up jacking crazy shots!!

[MrMemorial]

I blame Stack for dressing nice. If he dressed like a slob, the SEC refs (who ordinarily love Vandy) wouldn't feel so envious of his wardrobe and they would have called that more-than-obvious goaltend that had a big impact on the game instead of ignoring it like three blind mice.

With three refs on the floor and none of them see the painfully obvious (announcers caught it and replay confirmed) then you are left with only two possibilities: incompetence or bias.

[charlestonalum]

It has been incompetence forever in the SEC. we need professional refs everyone is paid full time now including players but not the officials.

[dore74]

Great effort. Too bad some of our guys had an awful shooting performance. Keep playing like this (with back to normal shooting) and they may right the ship after all.

Yep. 4-point swing in a 3-point game. I’ll let you do the math.

[Jason94]

Great effort by the team in a tough environment. I remember when there used to be a ton of complaining about CKS holding onto timeouts and here we are again. I don't know why a TO wasn't used down 4 with 6.4 left in an inbound that led to a TO. Were we just conceding at that point or was it best to just let the players wing it? Do they not know they can call a TO in that situation or how many TO's the team had left?

[doubledore9603]

The officiating was legit horrible.

The missed goaltending call was the obvious mistake.
31 FTA vs 12 the not so obvious.

[Foreverhopeful]

I'm really happy with our performance- not perfect, but SO much better than some of the games thus far. Never quit- Shelby, Liam and Ez were spectacular. Pissed about the missed goal tending call and the missed free throws....

I’m inclined to be less pissed about a few missed FT than the fact that MO scored more than double the number of points at the line than VU’s total attempts.
31-12 discrepancy in FTA is egregious. Especially when VU had 10 more FGA inside the arc. But SEC refs. What are you gonna do?

[utahozzie]

Stack needs to realize college Kids need to be reminded of things from time to time. They aren’t professionals. Use your time outs
