Game Thread: Iowa v Lady Vols, Sat Dec 7th ; Shark Beauty Women's Champions Classic; 7PM; FOX network TV; WIN 78-68

Lady Vols interior defense needs to improve, Iowa dropping dimes and getting easy easy layups on them

I said before the game you can’t just not guard O’Grady. She’ll eat you up. That has always been Iowa’s game. Jensen is a stellar interior player coach/devleoper. We have to lock her up in transition and prevent those easy passes. Our posts are ball watching instead of matching up and playing D

We’re not winning this one!

I agree. Hope we learn,, we're not a top 25
Team yet.

 

[RAVOL]

Alright Ladies time to fight through this. Allowing them to easy looks. Offense let's work the cuts then you will get good look at Rim. In CHRIST Alone

 

[Coach Jumper]

For Kim to call a timeout, someone is getting chewed out for the last 3 possessions on defense.

I've just wished she'd let some of that anger loose on the refs,, instead of her players

 

[MoCo_Vol]

If we just hit the layups, wouldn’t be close.

Olsen tough. We are in this game. Gonna come down to last couple scores and possessions. Gotta play tough without drawing fouls.

Gotta stop fouling. They are a good FT shooting team.

 

[VolBall09]

Do everyone a favor and stfu.

Nah. I’ll continue just to piss you off now.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

As I’ve said before please get a true big to go with the next recruiting.

 

[ShortyMac10]

Jillian also. We need Laythom if she can not foul.

She got 4 I mean put her in now she just gotta keep han

Mizzou flops a lot

they evenly matched with it

 

[And1]

our team is not ready for the big time it seems.

This being the first away game may be a factor. They've become disorganized and discombobulated on offense. Those are shots Coop usually hits. Maybe this time out will pull them together.

Still anyone's game.

 

[SGMVols]

Somebody isn’t teaching post defense and help defense.

We just don’t have the size this year to deal with bigs this good.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Is this a coach or a cheerleader.

 

[rogatl]

Our defense has been fine. Just need to work on some offense. We just play 1-1 ball way too much.

 

[SGMVols]

I agree. Hope we learn,, we're not a top 25
Team yet.

I think we are, but we won’t be voted in unless we win

 

[VolBall09]

More terrible defense

 

[Vols2015]

That was a hook on Olsen!

 

[And1]

Olsen chicken wing again.

 

[Coach Jumper]

I had a hose point guard.Totally hooked and wasn't cold

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

If we just hit the layups, wouldn’t be close.

And a few of the wide open 3s

 

[MoCo_Vol]

That’s usually a foul for hooking, but Spencer has to not flop out of position trying to draw it.

 

[cwbytruckers]

Wipe that smile off her face

 

[OrangeBeachVol]

We just don’t have the size this year to deal with bigs this good.

Our players getting schooled on how to block out. Hope they learn something from tonight.

Abysmal D
