Game Thread: (5/6) Lady Vols 65 - Vanderbilt 51

[NoBackBoard]

Hope Striplin can get some 4Q minutes

As we say in this area... who doesn’t?

Aight? I’ve taught a few courses at Rice.

Seemed hectic there down the stretch in the third, but after all that… Vandy was only able to trim the lead by 5.

…easy boo. They need the minutes contending.

That's for the last of the 4th quarter. Starters need as much playing time together.

I just turned the game on a while ago and man...the Lady Vols look like they've never shot a basketball before. They can rebound and pass but they're just flinging it up blindly...many times not even hitting the rim. I don't recall ladies bball being this bad... but obviously UT is a good team....so....it's all good I guess.

Feel like we should be 30 ahead but whatever Refs not calling all their fouls and we've missed some easy ones.

 

[VolBall09]

Every bit of defense Vanderbilt has thrown at this team they have received back in spades. This Lady Vol defense is long, fast and consistent. The second string may not be very pretty offensively but we don’t lose hardly anything on defense going to the bench. It’s a beautiful thing.

Would love to bury them in 4Q.

I work in the O&G industry.

I work in the retirement industry. Best there is right now.

turbovol, I feel like one of the big reasons Tennessee is causing so many opponents headaches is because just about everyone in this second group has come up big in other games BECAUSE they've been given chances to play.

This isn't the best bball of the game, but it's IMPORTANT to the season as a whole.

define bury. Since we are up 20. Like Arkansas men over Missouri bury?

 

[chuckiepoo]

Jordy seems so focused tonight.

 

[Volfan2012]

That play right there with Horston that is either a make or two foul shots everytime almost. That should be her shot.

 

[10cpride]

8 points in 3rd Quarter.

I’ll trust Kellie and her staff

 

[chuckiepoo]

Horston …

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Horston with 16 points and a double double on rebounds.

Still plenty of time here to get more done.

…like cemetery style.

 

[VolBall09]

Playing with our food. Eat right here so you can have your rest! Nice move from Jordy.

 

[Volstylexx]

Would love to see Horston with the triple double here, but she’s too important to the team to risk injury down the stretch, imo.

 

[Voluble2]

Jordy seems so focused tonight.

When her shot is on she is one of the best in the country. And her ball handling has been really good tonight against a ball hawking defense.

Rae was going to be our best, but Jordy has really progressed with all of the playing time this year and Rae is still getting her groove back.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

Vandy’s floor just seems long as heck

 

[VolBall09]

42% from the field and 34% from 3

27% and 11% against this Lady Vol team.

 

[chuckiepoo]

…did I just hear banjoes?

 

[Voluble2]

Emily seemed a little out of sorts there.
