    Both Tennessee and Alabama look to be tight and not on their games. Half way through the first half and Bama has a 5 point lead: 19 - 14

    Tennessee is showing NO life. Bama goes up by 11 with 5 minutes left in the first half

    Wayne Chism woke up in a hurry. He hits back to back 3 pointers to bring Tennessee to within 4 points and Hopson hits one to draw within 1 point with 16 minutes left in the game. Tennessee went on a 11 - 0 run at that point.

    If Tennessee loses this game, the main reason is bad free throw shooting. We are under 50% today. We have missed 9 free throws out of 17 and are down by 4. with 6 minutes left.

    Bama wins. They got the ball back with 4 seconds left in a tie game and hit a hail Mary 3 point shot to win the game. Congrats to Bama. We missed 12 out of 22 free throws. That will kill you every time.

    Unbelievable finish. I thought Tennessee had come back and was going to win. How anyone could make that shot amazes me.

    Seems all the top teams in the SEC have finished on less than stellar performances. It will be interesting to see how the tournament goes.

    Unbelieveable shot, the kid drove in from his Grandma's funeral to boot.

    South Carolina is Co-Eastern Division Champs with Tennessee. Tennessee will be the #1 seed in the Tournament though from the East due to defeating USC twice.

    Yes UNC did win.

    It should be very interesting to see how this SEC tourney shakes out. I think it will be one of the most competitive in years with 4 or 5 teams with legit shots to take home the title. I don't think you'll see a fluke team win (Georgia last year). My safe money is on Tennessee despite the loss yesterday to 'Bama. However, I wouldn't be surprised if a decent team that's playing really well right now like Auburn ends up taking home the title. I think LSU has run its course and will go into the Big Dance limping.

    I think Tennessee has a BETTER chance BECAUSE of that loss. It may just be the "wake up call" they needed. I use that because Pearl stated "We just never got out of bed..."

    Rude awakening for Vols
