Rick Barnes recaps Vols’ loss to Alabama

Alabama defeated Tennessee at Thompson-Boling Arena.

On if they had good preparation coming in to the game and if he thought they were overconfident:
“If they are overconfident, it is over with now. I don’t know if they were or weren’t. With our preparation, we prepped, and our guys did a good job. We talked about what we need to get done, but the bottom line is, we didn’t execute. You guys know, I didn’t hear Dabo Swinney last night, but I guarantee he is saying the same thing in which we had a plan, we worked on the plan, the preparation was good, but we didn’t get it done. You have to give them credit because they had a plan, they worked on it, and they got done what they needed to get done. It’s not hard to figure out. One team got it done and one team didn’t.”
