double-digit point spread and Chris Lofton retirement day? classic trap game, oddly enough.

Vols' three best players were doing too much -- Tennessee is going to have more bad shooting nights, but Vescovi, Zeigler and JJJ missing open bunnies can't happen (trio went a combined 9/33, a number of them layups as you mentioned). also, if your shot isn't falling, you don't keep taking more contested jump shots (five FT attempts between the three of them).

thought Barnes should've played more of the bench when it was obvious those three were freezing cold.
