The message from Rick Barnes after a blowout loss to Florida

Tennessee’s unblemished record is no more. Florida took the Volunteers to the woodshed on Tuesday night in Gainesville, dominating from the opening tip. It took Tennessee several minutes to even put a point on the board, and that only came from Felix Okpara drawing a foul and heading to the free throw stripe.

Tennessee was ice cold from the floor, particularly from the three-point line. It’s not like the looks that they were getting weren’t good ones, they just simply weren’t falling. Chaz Lanier couldn’t buy one, Igor Milicic was left open several times, along with Zakai Zeigler — nothing doing.
