It's early, but it's rare to see Tennessee be the second most physical team on the floor. OkieState muscling up so far.

OkieState 14, Vols, 7 11:23/1stH.
Good test for the Vols. Golden was getting a blow but is coming back in after the timeout. They'll need a lot from Golden today. He should get plenty of points against this fullcourt pressure.

Only 1 FG Attempt for Stokes through 9 minutes is not good enough. Have to involve him every possession.

The Vols have gone 7-plus minutes without a field goal.
Only defense is keeping them in this game.

UT's offense playing like ... well ... something bad, but solid D is keeping them in it.

Pathetic offense from both teams so far. Jack city. One possession for Jarnell in the post out of a set play in last 10 or so trips.

Vols yet to have a free throw attempt. Not a product of officiating. Nobody has really pushed the ball towards the rim.

Wow Tennessee may have the worst half court offense I've seen this year. Everybody just standing around. Brutal

Vols continue to play astoundingly bad offense but are hanging around with defense.
Two D breakdowns get OkieState's leads up 22-12, though.
OSU 22, Vols 12, 3:32/1stH/

No Back-up PG kills this team. Mcrae can't run the offense.

Exactly. Not going to the rim at all. And when they do get the ball in the post, they're playing soft. Better wake up or this is going to get ugly. Defense is keeping them from getting blown out right now.
