Game Thread: (#11/10) Lady Vols 64 - Va Tech 58

So, is to early to declare Sara Puckett the greatest freshman player in the history of WCBB's? (Sorry my blue font thing is not working. To be clear, I am joking) but Sara did have a heck of game. She was the go to player who saved the team's bacon down the stretch.

And good for Jordan for hitting two clutch shots in crunch time as well. But, if you had told me with Rae out and Jordan playing her worst game of the year, they walk out of VT with a win, I would have been skeptical. But Dye, Key, Walker, and of course Puckett found a way to get enough points.

Gritty win by a gritty team
She was already designated a poor recruit by so many can't talk about her being any good now. That class on 2021 was terrible been told that to many times.
 
Thank goodness the Massey computer was wrong!

I worried all week that this was a trap game, but except for the spectacular Sheppard and the mindbogglingly awful officiating, the Lady Vols handled everything else well.

Tamari Key -- WOW! What a performance! At the end there, those powerful rebounds Key pulled down made me jump out of my chair. She was NOT GOING TO BE DENIED!

Walker and Puckett? OMG, I love it! Horston had some timely buckets in crunch time. Really, everyone who played today should be proud, especially since the officials were making it so difficult to execute anything.

8-0. :D
 
Well since they haven't "broken any rules" or "been banned" by the mods would that do any good. Darth is a good one for starters. Start there also look for some who never catch the game but can catch everyone else's.

Awfully quiet wouldn't you say 🤫
Ah yes, Darth will surely “watch the game later”, even though he surely would have watched it if they had lost.
 
Ref called traveling on Tess and Dye for catching the ball. Called two on Tamari on moves to the basket and one on Green on her patented shot.

The 2nd half call on Green when she scored on a nice move to the hoop was equally baffling. It is odd that refs at this level don't know the rule on traveling. I sort of expect refs to be 50-50 at best on getting charges right but travel calls are pretty basic stuff and not that hard to assess. Kind of inexplicable.

EXACTLY! I was thinking, maybe I missed a mid December rule change or something! 😂

I just looked at his posts on his profile. It’s obviously very strange that someone who says they’re a fan is relentlessly bashing the coaches and players of a top 10 undefeated team. You lose any credibility of ever having a good point.

You would think he would be a little less harsh and wait till bad things happen, but he’s letting it rip 😂. Whenever we eventually lose a game, he will become unbearable (even more than normal).
