Game Thread: (12/8) Lady Vols 64 - Alabama 74

[PineyBluff Vol]

With officiating like this I don't see how Bama has lost a game.

This crowd is jacked and bama is feeding off the energy.

For those who are clueless - that's as much dripping sarcasm as I can come up with. Did i really need blue font for that?

Dye adds nothing.

No defense

No offense

She needs to sit down

She has to be one of the biggest disappointments. There was a time I thought she was a tough, hard-nosed player. No more

We need Dye, but we need her to get her head out of her butt. And I don't like the fact that Kellie is playing her out front on defense. She's not quick enough to guard their guards! Why does Kellie not have Khya or Brooklyn out there on defense?????

 

[Voluble2]

Yep...it will probably hurt recruiting as well.

It absolutely should.

Yeah, I'm sort of tuned out now, but Bama was throwing - and I mean throwing - Tennessee players to the ground on the offensive boards and none of the refs even LOOKED at them. I saw Key get slung down away from the ball on one play, hit the ground, and none of the stupid zebras even looked at her.

The Bama crowd cheering their team to a win. All three of them.

Point guard position and lack of post players finally catching up with this team.

Not just the pt guard. Whole team just decides to not play some nights. Very little effort.

NOT making excuses for this team, but all the great wins we had early in the season - many/most of them were super close, and several we had to have huge comebacks in Q4 to eek out the win. Now we have lost a great bench player, Greene, and we have come back to earth. Obviously we look better when we win, but even then, so many games were nailbiters.

The thing I can't abide is lack of hustle or effort. Pat would never have allowed that.

Does anyone think that the Lady Vols were looking past Alabama to South Carolina?

 

[LVol]

Full court press the rest of the game ! Who's with me?

 

[casetopia]

Dye has played like garbage ever since Burrell returned.

No

I know all the fans were on FB.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

This team is done

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

So disappointed

Dye adds nothing.

She needs to sit down

Her good game vs Vandy appears to be an outlier.

 

[VolBalls33]

Alabama had 18 TO last game...has 3 so far. 3??!!! That alone shows the team isn't playing aggressive defense. Alabama had lost 8 of 10 coming into this game with the 2 wins against Vandy and Auburn. Just inexcusable. Back to Holly ball.

 

[eVOLve]

Trash effort

 

[Voluble2]

3 Vols just stood there and watched her get the rebound

 

[SGMVols]

This team sucks. Gamecocks may beat them by 40.

 

[casetopia]

Pick your head up key act like you actually give a rats.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

We can't even pass the ball to a player without causing a turnover.

 

[Voluble2]

This team didn't look past anyone.

This is who we are.
