He’s saved himself. For now

Until tomorrow at least. Assuming we don't blow this lead. **

 

[vandaldawg]

That is the biggest five points DJ Jefferies ever scored

DJ shooting confidently from 3 makes us a completely different team.

DJ shooting confidently from 3 makes us a completely different team.

It was one of those times we needed someone other than the usual suspect to make a basket.

 

[FlotownDawg]

DJ with the biggest shot of his career right there. Then a run out layup. Maybe we won’t blow this after all. I’m still on pins and needles though.

 

[Rupert Jenkins]

Can we hang on for 2 plus minutes

 

[POTUS]

They are going to make us make FT's. 4 for 4 so far...

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Let's go boys! Beat them so bad they're a 3 seed and we can see them in round 2!

Hehe...they in talks

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Thank God they're out of timeouts. We are a dangerous team on neutral courts, and we're showing it today.

 

[Maroon13]

The OB guys!

Hail State!

 

[Podgy]

16 point lead with under 2 to go. I think that's safe.

Why is Tolu in?

This was the play of the game imo. Tennessee had cut the halftime lead from 19 to 12 in less than five minutes and, more importantly, had momentum. It felt like they were about to close the gap in no time. This shot led to us pushing the lead back to the halftime lead and beyond.

Similarly, Tennessee made their final push and cut it to 12 with 5:09 to go. DJ's three put an end to the 10-0 run.

Dalton connect winds up for the tomahawk jam and…

[RopeDawg]

I know there hasn’t been much to tell about but Jans has been uncharacteristically quiet this game.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Good day to be a Dog.

 

[RopeDawg]

What an *** whoopin. That was fun

 

[Crazy Cotton]

Who we want? SC?

 

[aTotal360]

I never doubted this team.

 

[Podgy]

So are we keeping Jans or not? I read on here that the needs to be fired.

Correction. This was the play of the game:

 

[RopeDawg]

Cam is probably one of my favorite dawg basketball players all time. Dude brings it every game.

He's on the bubble **
But Rick Barnes is toast LOL....according to the Vol boards

 

[jethreauxdawg]

Who we want? SC?

Both. Bring ‘em out

 

[Anon1697564126]

That was fun

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

First time in the semi-finals since 2010. Every year, Jans does something else to exceed expectations.

 

[Podgy]

Josh Hubbard is the man.

 

[vandaldawg]

Both. Bring ‘em out

SC ain’t gong 3-0 on us.

 

[Anon1697564126]

Cam is a linebacker playing point guard

 

[Dawg1976]

Welp....I didn't turn it on until 1:30 seconds left. I figured we had it at that point. Never dreamed we would win this game much less dominate the game. Congrats to the team!

 

[Podgy]

I was in the Miami airport the other day when some SC students sarcastically said "sorry about that" and smiled when they saw me in a State shirt after the OT loss. Jerks.

 

[theoriginalSALTYdog]

IF we can keep up this intensity, especially on the defensive end, we're going to be a tough out. I do worry about us running out of legs in a 3rd game in 3 days.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Why is Tolu in?

Because he makes free throws

 

[BulldogBlitz]

So are we keeping Jans or not? I read on here that the needs to be fired.

Next loss, he gone.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

We thank you for your sacrifice

They don’t call him “Regular Season Rick” for nothing

 

[HomeBoyDawg]

SC since it would be their 3rd game, too.

 

[vicksburg]

If you aint a dawg.....


You're dawg food!!!

 

[theoriginalSALTYdog]

BTW, did anyone else laugh their *** off when Knecht missed that dunk? We let him drive the line unmolested trying not to foul and he missed a wide open dunk. I was laughing so hard I spit my drink out. We got in his head. He gonna have nightmares of DJ and Cam tonight.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

We sure do play a lot better when we don’t try to force the ball into Tolu and we get good effort from Bell.
