The refs are awful, but boy our girls are fighting on through!

 

[ThatVolGuy]

Lord almighty, we just made three free throws in a row.

 

[th2421]

Spreen with a series of mistakes on both ends to help us get right back in it and take the lead. Not sure why Curry even had her in the game, other than trying to conserve her starters' energy.

 

[teeball]

Game of runs so far.

 

[glv98]

They're just solving the press. Don't think the players are playing bad D, it's just not effective strategy against them.

refs suck again

The refs are awful, but boy our girls are fighting on through!

Calls always go against Tennessee most of the time.

Alabama fouling three point shot

 

[mudcat1973]

Tennessee sharing the basketball

 

[teeball]

Turnovers are killing us.

The refs are always bad for SEC WBB, should not be a surprise.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Getting nothing driving it, not even fouls

 

[amorange]

Cooper really needs to get a better attitude and show some fight about her.

 

[theroyz71]

This team is hard to watch sometimes.

 

[SGMVols]

This team just doesn’t defend well enough to be anything more than a r32 or s16 team

 

[LadyViking/Vol]

Bad passing and no patience on offense and have to stop with our small guards driving and throwing up terrible shots ..

 

[cwbytruckers]

They play smart for two minutes then dumb for the next two. So frustrating to watch at times.

 

[ThatVolGuy]

Games like tonight, it feels like every other time we press, someone gets beat on the double team and we can't recover. Leads to many, many open shots for the other team. Need to be able to adjust strategy rather than forcing it.

Your doing them a favor by calling it a shot. Its throwing it towards basket and hoping.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Barker needs an elbow

 

[mudcat1973]

Tess Darby three

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

I heart Tess

 

[th2421]

10-0 run to close the half!

 

[Majors]

Amazing how much better this team looks from a year ago. Faster, efficient and not running though one player to win.

42-37 Lady Vols at the half!
