Without Davis(?) we definitely have to play some greenhorns. If there were ever a game for our Australian bomber to go 4/4 from 3 in 12 minutes of action, this would be it. This is about the time she got hot last season.

Yep we may see some time from folks that haven’t played much. Tess could get some minutes if she’s feeling good as well.

Best wishes to Rennia. Will look forward to having her back when she's fully healthy.

I'm going to have to adjust my expectations for this game. I'm just to glad to be watching the LVs play basketball. I hope everyone stays healthy and we at least compete.

Same. If we pull off the win, on the road and without Rennia. I’ll be impressed.

Same here. Would be big for sure. Hopefully Rae and Tamari continue their good play. Outside of them, you can only hope that other players have it in them to step up big time in Rennia's absence.

Rennia not playing were in big trouble today. Who is going to make up her double double play. I think we'll miss her on the boards more than anywhere. Another hit to our team.

Yep. I mean the woman had 20 boards in the first matchup. Somebody has big shoes to fill tonight. Will be very curious to see if someone steps up.

I think Coach Harper is the kind of woman who can have someone ready to go at a moments notice. Let’s hope we see a big game from who we least expect! Kasi and Tamari are going to have to play big.

I guess that leaves us with Key, Burrell, Suarez, Horston, and Walker probably starting or maybe KK with Marta off the bench and Salary and after that who get the nod probably Saunders.

Yeah Emily may be able to give us some minutes. Tess might could as well. Outside of defending Howard Kentucky isn’t the most athletic team in terms of attacking the basket. If Tess can hit some outside shots we could use it tonight.

Patterson is really the only one other than Howard that attacks and she usually gets hers in transition rather than in the halfcourt.

Our transition D is going to have to be great, not good. And we can’t have a bunch of live ball TOs.

Big keys to our win in Knoxville

A) the boards
B) Rae’s defense on Howard
C) not allowing others to go off

If the team can pull together and do that defensively they’ll be in business. Has to be a team effort.
