Tennessee comes in at #16.

#16 Tennessee Women's Basketball 2021-2022 Preview

Expecting big things from Burrell, Key and Horston, with enough contributions from Dye plus the freshmen to stay near the top of the SEC standings. Looks like SC and UK are picked ahead of them in the SEC standings. Not sure what people are seeing in UK, besides Rhyne. I think they will struggle to score...especially given their lack of inside game.

I think Chassity Patterson took pressure off of some other players to score and she was pretty decent defensively and could get in the lane and make life hard on opposing PGs. Mckinney's leadership and toughness will be missed and i think these two will be missed more more than some think.

The thing I see more with them is that 10 player roster and if only seven or eight are effective the SEC will wear you down. I think that is what happened to Tennessee last season along with the injury to Davis. When key player have to play 35 a game it will get to them in a 30 game season.

I think that UK has 9 players that can play meaningful minutes, with King and the freshman walkon likely being just practice players. Really the biggest hole for them is at C. They don't seem to have a true low post player, but have a good mix of guards, wings and high post players.

That will certainly help them.

I'm with you honestly... We are thin in the post and have NO depth... however, the team chemistry may prove to be the catalyst this year for this squad. I mentioned in this forum numerous times over the past season that there seemed to be chemistry issues with Patterson and the others. That seems to be the case as just about every interview with the girls this pre-season they have mentioned all of the girls this year get along with each other and that the team is much closer than the team was last year. They claim to see a noticeable difference on the court because of it... We'll see, I never wear the blind goggles with my favorite teams lol I want to see them prove it.
