UT only outrebounded the Cats 33-26 (8-3 Off rebs). I swear, watching the game it felt like UT had twice that many offensive boards. I just didn't realize they got half of them on the one offensive possession late in the game. I actually feared that possession may win the game for them when they finally scored.

Only 8 TO's was huge also.
Williams, Carr and Garrison combined for 7 TO’s.
The rest of the team had one. Against one of the best defensive teams in the country.

And a couple of Williams wasn't his fault, Oweh stopped on a back cut and Brea got mugged with no call.
Unsurprising Stat:
Tennessee sucks 100% of the time.

I think the high post offense with the bigs triggering the ball is prone to turnovers because they are tempted to make a lot of thread the needle back door passes when they aren’t always there. They’re out in a spot where they have to pick the ball up a lot and do something with it.
Don’t get me wrong it also leads to a lot of offensive wins but it’s also prone to miscues by the bigs out there
Yeah Carr seems healthier than he has been, but now he just can't find his rhythm, I'm confident he'll find it he's just struggling right now.
