35 minutesDid Staiti play in that game???
Is Kentucky a generally quicker team than Tennessee? I don’t know how, but I have somehow managed to not catch more than a few minutes of a Kentucky game this season.
Anyway, the teams with a lot of quickness are the ones that worry me the most, and from what I’ve seen so far this season LSU and Missouri are on that list. It’s more the combo of quickness and no-quit toughness.
Tennessee has no-quit toughness by the boatload. But quickness? I wouldn’t call us a quick team — not slow, but not quick enough to get a lot of steals against a speedy team, or quick enough to prevent a truly quick team from getting into our passing lanes and such.
I’m rambling again. lol

I realize you all know more about WBB than me. Saying that, I am really impressed with Key on defense. She can block, alter shots, and rebound causing a lot of probems for opponents. Her only negative IMO is a tendency to foul. Is there a better defensive center in women's college basketball? I know a handful might have a better all around game but on defense she is as good as anyone IMO.
Snoop is quick. So is Jordy and Miles and Wynn. Burrell and Green have some quickness.

Our game against USC will pit the top 2 centers in the NCAA against each other.
I think Key is top 5, but she is definitely not top 2. She barely averages 10 points a game and she is not a great rebounder for her size. The fact she is top 5 speaks volume about her defense. The two best centers are Boston and Ayoki Lee from Kansas State in my opinion.
