That PA announcer is like nails on a chalkboard

Ended the half much better.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Lady Vols down by 1 at half time. 32-31.

 

[VolBall09]

14 turnovers playing 8 on 5 and we are only down 1 point. This team just won’t quit.

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

All things considered, things feel promising for the second half.

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

Great finish to the half!!!

 

[Vols2015]

Thank God for Jordan Horston!

 

[zaqhhh]

Pretty horrid half but as is the identity of this team. Defense and Rebounding have us in this one regardless.

If we can turn the ball over like that and still be essentially tied, should inspire confidence to win the next 20 minutes

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Hopefully we come back out & play like we mean it.

 

[LadyViking/Vol]

Nice way to end the half.. hope they come out ready to roll the second half.. Go Lady Vols!!

 

[Volfan2012]

Just to be down one after whatever that was is huge. Should be up by five even with the turnovers. That three point play called a walk by Puckett and that walk call on Burrell were bogus.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

A Lady Vol comeback, against adversity (GA and refs), down 1 at the half.

GO LADY VOLS!!!

 

[Voltopia]

Ok, just saying this now - Georgia only being up 1 at the half with 15 Tennessee turnovers is borderline ridiculous. It's also very fortunate for Tennessee. I hope this first half helped them wake up, because they're more or less tripping up themselves out there.

 

[Voluble2]

We could not have played worse in that first half and we are only down by 1.

We will need a much better second half.

 

[VA_VOLFAN]

These damn refs man how u watching them push and hold our girls!

This team is resilient! I love them (not their turnovers) but THIS TEAM!


BUT, if someone don't get these girls off our girls When the whistles did blow our way the game evened out.

 

[Volstylexx]

Worst first half all year with turnovers and fouls yet here we are down 1. WOW this team has grit and fight. LETS GO!! We won’t make the same mistakes in the 2nd. Lady Vols will win by 8+ if Key plays

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

That PA announcer is like nails on a chalkboard

Just imagine if Beth Mowins was calling this game. Ugh.

 

[ttharp]

Jordan Horston! Where would we be without her?! Easily the worst half we’ve played all season and we’re only down one.

Take care of the ball. Win the game.

 

[Orange Maniac]

Refs stole 7 points from us with the bogus traveling calls.

 

[therealitytheory]

That half had it all - most of it bad - but we're nothing if not resilient.

Some very curious calls by the zebras too - including a couple of phantom walking calls.

 

[TN1111]

Played about as bad as they could with the sloppy turnovers, some of those questionable travels, yet got it down to one at half. They need to turn it up a notch in the 2nd half.

 

[RAVOL]

Sloppy offense with unforced turnovers. But down 1 because we play D and rebound. We need our starting PG to come to play in second half. In CHRIST Alone

 

[alexvol]

14 turnovers playing 8 on 5 and we are only down 1 point. This team just won’t quit.

Absolutely .I do not expect anything to change by refs in 2nd half .Will have to make shots being mauled on one end and somehow overcome phantom travelling/walking calls .

They need to tighten up their passes and hopefully be able to play thru the physical play .I do not mind the refs letting the physical play go but they need to call it the same on both ends of the court ....be consistent that is all that is asked.

 

[LadyOrange]

If you’re watching, you can see that the refs particularly sick. Sara not out of bounds.

 

[37620VOL]

I'm hoping half of those turnovers were us just knocking the rust off. Dang
