Game Thread: (7) Lady Vols 86 - (RV) Arkansas 83

[Volfan2012]

No, it was 55.....look at the FT

You counting free throws no problem but they don't count on the shot total and 15 of 20 from the line is awesome. That 32 of 82 is what you don't like to see.

Key and Dye disappeared but glad we pulled it out!!

 

[Volfan2012]

Tough week got off to a good start with this win as back on the road for two games that are going to be tough.

 

[Govols922]

Her injuries the last month have put a no to her playing. I do agree she can be special one day on D end.

Hopefully she is ready to go and healthy by tournament time. We need all hands on deck for wins clown post season

I’m not at all butt hurt. Just don’t see how it’s constructive to drop in and call someone a “lame duck”

She had 8 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 turnovers. Pretty great game if you ask me

I'd take that from my point guard any day. So one of those "lazy a$$" passes only causes ONE of her TWO turnovers... hmmm not to shabby I must agree.

LOL@ drop in

We picked a good night to hit our free throws at a decent clip --- especially Key.

Oh my it was 71 missed shots.. I guess the 3PT are counted separate...

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Yes I hope were done with them. I think they are the hardest team in the league to guard on offense.

 

[Govols922]

Point guard play was crucial tonight. There were times where we could have showed more composure. The lady vols haven’t played in too many big games this year. They need more big game experience. Hopefully the schedule has prepared them for those moments.

I agree. Ramirez is like Keyen Green was for us on the court: A fully matured woman who is serious about what needs to happen on the basketball court to be successful. Like everyone else here, I am so darn glad she will finally be gone after this season. She’s already a pro IMO.

She has been a pain for us and not seeing her play against us anymore would be quite refreshing.

Congrats to the Lady Vols on a hard fought win. It wasn't always pretty, but like their early season comebacks, it's in the win column.

I know she missed few games early did Arky lose any of them.

I can‘t believe this is what you think is so important in this game, that I said ‘we’ and did not name the player because I wasn’t sure, but it was not the last rebound, I believe Rae got the one I was talking about during the game.

Fantastic game no matter what!

Key and Dye disappeared but glad we pulled it out!!

They had their rough moments but
Key 8 or 9 FT's
Dye got that 1H ending shot

I think those ended up being critical points

 

[mudcat1973]

key 38 , rae 39, horston 40 mins key not getting in foul trouble and rae able to play longer got the win. but we need dye or someone to cut rae and horston down to 32. hope karoline can give 8 to 10 mins for key.

The bad news is I think Ramirez is the ONLY player Neighbors loses after this season, and I think he gains a good player or two. Obviously Ramirez is a cut above, but Arkansas will be really, really good next season.

Yes he has some players think he loses Ramirez, Daniels, and Barnum but solid group back and think he got a transfer from UConn so they will be tough. I hoping Justin will be our Ramirez next season.

Key and Dye disappeared but glad we pulled it out!!

Key disappeared? I think we watched different games. Key played 38 of 45 minutes and had14 points, nine (9) rebounds, four (4) blocks, and one (1) assist for good measure. Plus, she played excellent overall defense. Great game, Tamari. Time to go get the gators. GBO.

Key finally showed up in overtime

He lost two really great players in Dungee and Slocum last season. Took them a while to get things figured out, but now that they have….watch out. A lot like their season three years ago. They were a mess for a while but toward the tail end of SEC play they found their groove.

This is the SEC now. Lots of great coaching, no nights off. Against Auburn that was some of it. For a good portion of the game Kellie got out coached. Johnnie Harris and Bob Starkey are going to win a lot of games there.

 

[Volfan2012]

What we saw is that the Arkansas defense was selling out on Key sometimes even triple defenders inside. Were going to see a lot of that going forward will be up to the other players to up their game.

 

[lvocd]

Johnnie Harris and Bob Starkey are going to win a lot of games there.

I absolutely love that coaching duo, and hope they are highly successful. (Except against Tennessee, of course)

 

[Govols922]

We saw this team step up tonight and show toughness. Hopefully they can stay hungry and not get satisfied with just the wins in regular season.

Those two turnovers were frosh turnovers. You were butthurt. You literally capslocked your message. She was a double edged sword tonight but I guarantee if you rewatch her two turnovers led to 6 points so in reality she scored 2 points.
