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

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Bama up by 10 points now. When will we wake the hell up?

 

[Voluble2]

Down by 10...smdh

Told you.

Need a run before half.

 

[And1]

This is just pathetic.

 

[VolBall09]

What is this lineup? Jesus.

 

[Volstylexx]

Bama players are so excited knowing that their leading here.

Acting like they're winning the lottery.

We are their super bowl. But to be fair, the last time we were a team’s super bowl, they stormed their court post game.

 

[Volfan2012]

Give up they are outrebounding us and totally outplaying us in this game. This is a really bad performance just like the last three road games.

 

[Putbacks]

This team is just satisfied to finish in the top half of the league. Zero pride…

 

[VolBall09]

Shocked Key doesn’t have two yet they way our guards are playing defense. Nobody can keep them in front. Just letting them drive all over the lane and kick wherever.

 

[Vols2015]

It’s about time Kellie calls a timeout. Alabama is just shooting it well, and let’s hope they cool down.

 

[SGMVols]

This team is going to mess around and play out of a top 4 seed and lose home court in the tournament.

 

[Volstylexx]

What is this lineup? Jesus.

If Jesus responds, please let us know what he says.

 

[orange beard]

We are a turn over machine!

 

[Orange_Mamba]

Still haven’t solved the problems that’s been plaguing us? Low energy, missed defensive assignments, missed layups and turnovers.

 

[Voltopia]

A lot of fouls not being called but even so, there’s no reason to be in this position.

 

[VolBall09]

This game is over. Turned it off. Forget about it.

If we don’t sort out the road woes we might as well start talking about next season. If we don’t host for the tournament there will be no second weekend. Maybe not even a second game if we play like this.

Bama shooting lights out. Can't keep that up, I hope.

Why can't we make layups? Our players have hands of stone?

This team is going to mess around and play out of a top 4 seed and lose home court in the tournament.

I’m more concerned with that it means come March. This team can easily lose in the 2nd round (at home or on the road).

 

[Vols2015]

Why not do some full court defense? Change it up.

 

[Voluble2]

No offensive rebounds at all.

That is how you beat us because we can never hit the first shot.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

She missed two shots on one possession so that is nowhere near right.

Thats the stats ESPN was showing

 

[Volstylexx]

This is what happens when you let a team get confident. This Alabama team can shoot. We are stewed.

You’re nicer than I am. We’ve let a lot of bad teams hang in games with us. That’s a recipe for an upset come March Madness.

 

[pasadenavol]

Their guards are too quick for Darby and Burrell. When the switch, Puckett is too slow to guard their guards. Not getting out on the shooters, and I understand giving them a little space for the quickness, but if you're going to stay in a man to man, you have to get right up on their guards.

 

[Voluble2]

Thats the stats ESPN was showing

I don't doubt it, but they were way off.

 

[VolBall09]

Bama shooting lights out. Can't keep that up, I hope.

Why can't we make layups? Our players have hands of stone?

They actually can. If you don’t defend them this Bama team can really shoot. Nobody has a desire to play defense tonight for the Lady Vols. Can’t win that way.

 

[Voltopia]

It sure seems like this team has gotten used to just playing poorly and being behind at the half.
