I don't think the game is on TV but you can stream it here

the Lady Vols are ranked 14th in the AP Top 25 and 16th in the USA Today Coaches Poll


Stetson is unranked

hopefully the time off has given the Lady Vols time to regroup and done some healing up as well,especially since the grind of the SEC conference is all most here,there is still a lot of Basketball to be played and I'm personally looking forward to watching them right the ship

as all ways Go Lady Vols :clapping:

I believe the team played ball in the first half against Oregon State, as well as I have ever seen a Lady Vol team play, no joking, they played under control, players who have seemed shot less made open jumpers, and defense was fierce. I think good things are coming, and with a healthy team, that can really push every player, with exception of Graves and Russell, we will be better. I trust Graves will push herself. Russell is a project, but I have to believe she knows, the talent is there, when she decides to push herself, this team can become lethal, Personally, I would have her watch films none stop, and no practice, make her angry, because she has to know, she is a weak link that should be a huge strength. Graves need to push herself, fight, get fouled, and, unlike in the last three years, she is jumping this year, and shotting away from the basket. Furthermore Carter and Reyolds layups, misses are just not allowed, and I wouldn't let them practice with the team, but have them shootin them on the other end with contact. To whomever said Carter had a pretty shot, geez get glasses, she seldom squares her feet or body to basket, and never on layups, her passes are bad loobs, I personally would go with middleton at point, because neither of those two seems to want to fix their obvious short comings

It seems that since the SEC network was launched, it is becoming more and more difficult to watch mens and women basketball on TV. I thought that one of the benefits of the SEC Network was that we see more games of every sport. I am beginning to think that the only reason for the SEC channels, only one of which is being used, was created only to increase the revenues of ESPN and the SEC offices and schools. The fans are getting the short end of the stick.

The alternate channels never have a thing on them. I don't know what their purpose is.

Yessss she has! It seems as if every time she takes that shot, it goes on. She could get that shot off anytime she wants.

That sweet shot that hit hit time and time again against OSU yes I love it... Bash needs to keep up the confidence and not disappear Bash seems to fade when post seem to emerge... Also Mercedes has a sweet stroke also it reminds me of Jacqueline Batteast shot of Notre Dame , around SEC time and her Junior year Mercedes will be a totally different player she's still very raw

I just hope the time off gave our team the realization that basketball is a 4 quarter game and there is not any time to take off. There is no excuse for off and on playing. You have to play like you want it.

it's all ways been hard to catch the Lady Vols on TV early in the season,but I did think they would be on TV a lot more,but at least we can stream the games now

This should be an easy win but hopefully we give forty minutes of all out effort something we haven't done all season.

Stetson Hatters, 84 UT Lady Volunteers 82
Are we that bad that now the Hatters can kick our butt? If that happens Holly should be fired immediately and prohibited from coming within 10 miles of the university. I predict, LVs 56 Hatters 48. We go up by 20 at half time and fight for out lives in the 3rd and 4th quarters. We finally go ahead for good with 1:25 remaining in the game. Afterwards Holly will be her usual self, telling the press how well the Hatters's 1,2 and no stars are coached. She is proud of the girls for pulling out a hard fought victory. She does not know how to correct the problems on offense and the poor performance in the second half. She will then give us one of her precious gems, "The team needs to score more." We will all be shocked, but after we come to our senses we will wait for more gems after Sophie Cunningham and Missouri kick our butts from Missouri back to Tennessee.

Shame it isn't on TV.

Looking at the next two thirds of the season, the Lady Vols will have opportunity to prove themselves and move up. Just looking at remaining top 25 opponents, here's how the LVs stack against the top 4 non-SEC teams in the nation:

UCONN: 3 remaining (USC, 2 X South Florida)
ND: 4 remaining (Lady Vols, Duke, Miami FL, FSU)
Baylor: 4 remaining (2 X OU, 2 X Texas)
Maryland: 5 remaining (2 X Ohio State, 2 X Northwestern, MSU)

The SEC teams have it a bit harder:

Lady Vols: 6 remaining (Mizzou, ND, KU, Miss St, A&M, USC)
South Carolina: 8 remaining (Mizzou, 2 X KU, 2 X A&M, Miss St, UCONN, Lady Vols)

So there is room to move up in the polls and get a better seed in the big dance.

We need to improve big time or we will have at least 5 loses in those six games. We will still make it to the big dance but may receive a bad seed which will put us against a top team before the elite 8. I am a women's basketball junkie and have seen several top 25 women teams, like DePaul, that will be a tough out.

One of the keys is to somehow teach Russell to be a force in the middle and stop being so timid. We not only need to guard against the 3s, we need to shot the 3s, at a respectable percentage. There are so many teams, like ND, that shoot the 3s at such a high percentage. I would say that we have our work cut out for us.
