So based on what I saw, Saunders should be first woman up when Key is out and the opponent has a >6-4 center.

Jordy! Jordy! Jordy! Jordy!!!!!
AA performance!!!!!!!!

No Tess, no refs, no problem.

 

[Volstylexx]

Don't forget our shooter was at home

yup. We won on the road making only 2 threes!

Three pointer two and the foul sealed the deal today. She has arrived one of the best players in the nation and certainly top five or better in the SEC.

Yes as long as the Center she is guarding isn't mobile. Stati having limited foot speed really helped.

I cut and paste from here

It's one of the links in the OP.

Horston played a great game. She almost made the game winning play ( in my opinion) when she drove the length of the court to score, at the end of the first half. But the game winning play goes to Burrell (when Tennessee was down by four) she made a three at the 9:05 mark in the third quarter. 15 seconds later she made a two that gave Tennessee the lead. Lady Vols never looked back. Burrell's three was a gut punch for Georgia.

This was the most complete game I've ever seen Jordan Horston play ....

She was 8/19 from the field with 19 points. She also had : 11 rebounds with 4 of them on offense. 4 assists with only 2 turnovers. 5 blocked shots and 3 steals on defense.

Awesome.

Horston with a 27 efficiency today that is elite.

 

[37620VOL]

This was the best game of Horston's career. Yes or no?

Cool story, bro.

Not yet .... Championship game that's coming up might be.

Emily deserves some playing time going forward. She came in and did a great job on Staiti to buy us some time. She was scoring inside Emily shut that down.

She stopped their run. It was nothing special but that size bothers Staiti.

Why do I ever doubt this team? Mental wounds from the past 10 seasons are hard to heal sometimes.

One of if not the best for sure.

Staiti kept trying to move her but couldn't.

 

[LadyOrange]

With Tess, fair refs, we would have won by 15.

It was a good coaching decision.. she was completely lost on offense but defensively she’s useful for sure. Karoline actually was extremely aggressive on defense when she was in… she surprised me the most.. should’ve made those freebies though

 

[creekdipper]

Emily answered the call!!!

Girl, you done good. Your Papaw would've been so proud!

 

[VolBall09]

Staiti kept trying to move her but couldn't.

She’s very difficult to move once she is set. An asset against a big post like Staiti who wants to bang. I actually think Kellie could have found her some more minutes in this game in the second quarter when Key was out. Emily was a better matchup than Keyen on Staiti.

Why is our coach dressed in NC powdered Blue today?

It’s actually Lady Vol blue (Columbia blue), and has been an official accent color for decades.

 

[Volfan2012]

Burrell 13 and 5 think she is still a little out of synch, but will take those numbers anyday.
