Game thread: #15 Lady Vols host #18 Alabama, Thurs., Feb 20, 6:30 ET, SECN+

When we shoot like this it is demoralizing. You can plan for Cooper and Whitehorn but you can’t plan for Darby, Puckett and Latham. When we play well top to bottom and everyone contributes we are damn good.

 

[GameTime]

She's still slow, but that was a good shot

 

[lfvol]

Might be the best first half of Q3 they have played in the SEC. Almost all good shots offensively.

 

[volsagain]

Relentless pressure and running them in the ground Go Lady VOLS !!

 

[Rons1989]

Alabama is TIRED lol love to see it

 

[RespectAPA]

26-5 run for Tennessee... score was 32-37, now 58-42.

 

[Volfan2012]

One of the best 5 minutess we have played all season. Keep it up team.

Just now getting the game on and looking at stats to see how we got here.

Very untypical CKC numbers. Looks like the key has been 2nd Chance Points:
Bama-3
Lady Vols-15

This team can go far in SEC Tournament. Subbing so Much. We will be fresh each game. Run the other teams off the court.

Alabama is TIRED lol love to see it

Tells you how fit we are too. Their starters didn’t have to play the entire game the other night because the game was over in the first quarter and Bama is STILL gassed.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

So now we can’t hit the easy ones

 

[SGMVols]

Players have got to stop being so demonstrative with refs. Let Kim handle that.

 

[volforlife10]

what a weak technical. LMAO

 

[LadyViking/Vol]

Well , wondering when this would happen with Cooper .. she’s been contesting a lot of calls ..

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

We just can’t stand prosperity

 

[OrangeBeachVol]

Now their back to the frustrating style. We just have to enjoy the good runs while it lasts.

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

Can we have a moment for how close that one player got us so often? Lost in the agony of the 1.1 is the comeback that player pulled off virtually alone against the undefeated national champs. And lots of other times. If she had this supporting cast . . .

When we shoot like this it is demoralizing. You can plan for Cooper and Whitehorn but you can’t plan for Darby, Puckett and Latham. When we play well top to bottom and everyone contributes we are damn good.

See above, this team, unlike previous, has so many ways to win. Sometimes the trapping press, sometimes the boards, sometimes hitting 3s.

Don't want to jinx it, but I'm almost starting to believe in our shooting, across the board. This is about 4 straight games of very good shooting.

 

[KnoxLikeUs]

Lady Vols brought out a 5 gallon drum of whoop dat @$$ after halftime break....

lol

 

[ttharp]

Up double digits and losing our composure as if we’re down.

Composure, please.

 

[sechamp2012]

Well Bama got a rest break on the T & now on the review they will be rested up for the rest of 3rd

 

[Vols2015]

Man we don’t need drama. Just take care of business and move on!

 

[Lurker]

Cooper is a talented player but if she can’t control herself and shut up on the court, maybe she should just sit it out. The turn around happened when she was sitting. There was no reason for a T.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Now their back to the frustrating style. We just have to enjoy the good runs while it lasts.

It’s like TN weather, it’s gonna change often

 

[glv98]

what a weak technical. LMAO

She earned it over a long period. We really have to work on Coops emotional poise. Also Zee's.
