Game Thread: #23/24 TENNESSEE VS. GEORGIA

[VolBall09]

Tamari sat too long, she probably shouldn’t have even come out. They can’t matchup with her and she’s finishing, feed her the ball.

 

[Orange Maniac]

If you’re going to sub, please put Saunders in instead of KK. Holy cow.

 

[djtee]

KJH to quick with the subbing why take Key and Jazz out when you have the lead ?

 

[volnationnj]

Lack of focus to end the quarter. I didn’t like some of the substitutions. I don’t think we need to go 8 deep in the first quarter if we can avoid it. Kasi isn’t awake yet.

I totally agree.

 

[Coach Jumper]

10 2 run no timeout

 

[Chippo]

Sloppy play

 

[Coach Jumper]

GA ahead 22-21

 

[volnationnj]

Key scores our first 5 points and then she gets taken out after playing 5-6 minutes !!

 

[VolBall09]

Defense is picking back up but we need to score. They’re overplaying, we’ve got to take it back door a couple times. I think we’re in better shape and our size is bothering them. We weren’t defending the screen very well for several minutes and they made us pay. Much better the last few trips.

Tamari is coming into her own defensively. She’s making people regret bringing it in the paint and she’s pretty good about not fouling. Especially for a freshman.

 

[Coach Jumper]

This is bordering on one of those coaching moment timeouts I've been asking for

 

[VolBall09]

Coach sounds great miced up. She sounds commanding and confident. She’s very encouraging as well.

 

[userpete1037]

Seems like everything is rushed on our end.

 

[orangealways]

Feed rennie !!
for goodness sakes if you put her in feed her !! All these girls jacking up contested bricks and their shooting percent is nowhere near Rennies!

 

[djtee]

Carolyn Peck just said when we had the 7 pt lead and taking Key out let Georgia back in the game.

 

[volnationnj]

Up 6 at the half. 35-29

 

[userpete1037]

That's more like it ladies. Way to finish the half.

This new resurgence of LV offense looks good when they run it correctly. I must say kjh is doing a good job the improvements on the offensive end have been miraculous!

 

[Coach Jumper]

I don't know what's up with Barrel but she's playing like

 

[VolBall09]

We seem to have a consistent lull at the beginning of the second quarter and then a nice flurry before half. If we can prevent that decline offensively in the first few minutes of the second we can break some games wide open.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Wow. They were definitely feeling it last 5 minutes of the half.

This new resurgence of LV offense looks good when they run it correctly. I must say kjh is doing a good job the improvements on the offensive end have been miraculous!

They were running a little weave action for a minute or two. I think that was the first time I’ve seen that from them this year. Lots of movement, really takes it out of your opponent defensively and forces them to move constantly.

 

[Coach Jumper]

Now we're getting back on track a little bit 32 to 29 Tennessee's at 40 seconds to go

 

[SandyO]

The only thing holly did better than Kelly was to not play kam.

 

[Decker Moss]

I know coach doesn’t want to but she’s going to have to cut this to a 7 man rotation. With Rennie maybe as #8. At this point I would go with Saunders over KK. Harris and KK just don’t help.
#6 - Burrell, #7 - Saunders, #8 - Rennie

Key will need to play all 40 against UCONN they have less than 2 weeks to prepare. The hussies can score and that’s it. Can’t defend a dead man so we cannot go through these scoring droughts if we are to compete. If we can score 70+ against UCONN I think we got a great shot
