[Volfaninfl2]

Who can make free throws-Sara. Who is now going to the basket-Sara.

 

[Vols2015]

Well, good quarter! Only downside, need to make our free throws!

 

[volnationnj]

Almost dropped that one at the buzzer.

 

[VolBall09]

Great first quarter down our two best players!

Awesome to see Rae dressed.

How bout that offense?

 

[volnationnj]

Key with the outside shot.

 

[NoBackBoard]

Ball reversals have been good so far. Passes are quicker too. We’re improving

 

[Vols2015]

Surprised we are not seeing more messages! They didn’t give Key that second block for some reason, but her outside shot was pretty! She will need to show case that more as we enter SEC play, as she will be hounded inside game-in game-out.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Key with the outside shot.

So smooth & pretty too.

 

[VolBall09]

Annnndd a terrible second quarter so far. Figured we’d be up and down this game. Hope we can pull it off. Having to play some interesting combinations.

Darby off the dribble is not Division one basketball…

 

[xtpsrh08123]

Love seeing Rae back in uniform means she’s close !!

 

[VolBall09]

Kristy is working the officials for all she’s got. Thankfully they’re ignoring her lol

 

[Vols2015]

Poor possession by Tennessee there. No need for a quick shot, the shot clock was turned off….

 

[VolBall09]

Tess gotta sit. That was a stupid play. Sorry but obvious travel and not what we needed. Run the clock and get the last shot. Don’t even look to shoot there. Make the pass.

 

[VolBall09]

Lucky they didn’t score there. That play pissed me off. Hate to jump on the train but she has to get better if she’s going to play this much. Made multiple mental errors in the first half.

 

[LadyVols_WBK]

Gotta remind myself we are down 2 starters that 2nd quarter was horrible

 

[VolBall09]

Really gotta get the ball inside and got to work. If we can tag some fouls on Rice it would be great. She’s their only size and she’s been aggressive on the glass.

Bama is holding super bad on the rebounds. Finally getting called for it. That’s why several rebound have been bobbled by Tamari. Literally holding her right wrist behind her back, very obviously I thought.

 

[Volfan2012]

Our two best scorers not even in the game. We need Dye to play a lot better if were going to win this game.

Kristy and Gordon trying to argue when she was called for holding Sara

What’s going on with our team right now?

 

[VolBall09]

Tess gotta sit. Mentally she’s completely out of it this evening.

 

[Vols2015]

Sara not playing that well tonight. Needs to take a moment to sit down and think things through.

 

[VolBall09]

We’ve gotta score the ball.

Sarah playing tight playing the home state team.

 

[VolBall09]

What’s going on with our team right now?

Missing our two best players in a bad way. That’s what. Nobody wants the ball on offense this evening.

 

[VolBall09]

Bama showing us some defense and we’re acting like we’re scared of it. This is where we miss Horston a ton.
