Game Thread: #11 Lady Vols at #15 Kentucky. Thursday, Feb. 27, 7pm ET, SECN.

While the announcers have said a loss would not drop us out of the top 16, I'm thinking a beat down like this would.

We need to find a way to make this end up a lot closer.

Kenny Brooks owns Kim as of right now.. not a good game tonight

How many times you post stuff like this during the UConn game?
Every game doesn’t need extreme takes win or lose.

After UCONN I never claimed that “we are back”, which would have been an extreme take. This is not a very talented roster. I don’t think that’s an extreme take. We all love Cooper and Whitehorn’s athletic ability because they stand out so much from the rest. Five years from now if they are the top 2 players in the KC era, we’re in big trouble.

 

[Vols2015]

I’m astonished that we aren’t at least making this a game. We’ve played everyone so well this year. KY isn’t any different.

 

[volsagain]

There just too hot tonight. They probably beat anyone in the country tonight. Just happens sometimes and I guess it's happening to us tonight. GLV

 

[lfvol]

just something that didn’t need to be said. tamari gave her all for tennessee and played through a very scary injury. one of my all time faves.

She wasn’t always injured. She contributed here. But in the first half tonight, her sister was the better basketball player. That’s is all. And people on here were very critical of her when she did not come to TN.

 

[Dak1219]

You would think that Caldwell would have adjusted what she was going to do against a team coached by the team that beat her by 40 last year. She's had a year to think about it...

 

[Namorto1]

Maybe this beat down will get their attention for the post season. You have to be able to guard, play with some discipline, be unselfish and take much better shots.

 

[KTrain]

There's your stat of the game

Yep, just not falling, the height has intimidated

 

[Chippo]

We need to get it together for March madness

 

[volfan102455]

This is bad. Not even competitive

That is the big problem.

 

[AllVols3]

If they are not a great team - what does that say about us?

Did you think we were a great team? We're a good team, I'm not impressed with UK. Nothing they do in this game will change that. This is by far their best game they've played. If we made our easy shots early it wouldn't be thus ugly. Our confidence now is gone.

 

[SGMVols]

This is not the team that defeated UConn.

The UConn win was kind of a fluke tbh

They’d beat us 90% of the time at least.

If we had to play them again tomorrow it’s more likely the result would be something like this than another win.

Kenny Brooks owns Kim as of right now.. not a good game tonight

Neither Kim or Kenny are playing. It's a good effort from one team and a lousy effort from another. It's that simple.

 

[vols 30]

great halftime speech!!!

It went something like this -

Kim - "Y'all could not give less effort if you tried"

Team - "hold my beer"

 

[RAVOL]

Focus is definitely off this game. Ky playing with another gear than us. Just don't see the energy and passion to play this game tonight. Just a stinker. In CHRIST Alone

 

[Hbg]

The competitive spirit of concrete, the iq of a rock, and the hustle of a sloth.

 

[ThatVolGuy]

I think I’ve had my fill. Kim’s got a lot of thinking to do if things don’t change course. Ugliest game I’ve seen in recent memory.

 

[vol94]

Lady Vols will be fine. We may be down 10-14 at the half but will go on a run in the 3rd.

Edit- but we can’t let Ky post player continue to shoot layups.

Guess I’m wrong. What a butt kicking. Just pathetic play tonight.

 

[theroyz71]

Worst shooting team I've ever seen.

 

[NOLACHUCKEYTOM]

Wonder if maybe we have some sick girls on the team tonight. Just doesn't look right.

 

[Voluble2]

I thought KY would win.

I didn't think we would just lay down and let them.

We need to fight back just so this game doesn't get in our heads and for the sake of our pride.

 

[volforlife10]

Worst shooting team I've ever seen.

this game yes. for the season no.

 

[Vols2015]

3s aren’t falling. We’ve got to turn our defense up to get easy baskets.

 

[tnvols72]

Tn defense is so bad
