Game Thread: Lady Vols 75 - Ohio State 87

[VolBall09]

Another BS call on Tamari.


I suppose if you flail around enough they’ll just blow the thing for you now.

Thankfully OSU can't make free throws

OSU's big girl is neutralizing Key about as well as any post player I've seen. She's really strong.

 

[lvocd]

Tough call on McMahon

 

[SGMVols]

Thankfully OSU can't make free throws

Or open threes, apparently

I wish we’d switch up the D and try for some steals.

 

[VolBall09]

Key just loafed down the court on that steal. She seems uninterested tonight.

She’s afraid to get within 5’ of anyone with the officiating crew we have tonight.

Tennessee defense had a lot to do with them shooting poorly the first half. Hopefully for the LVs Darby (made 2 3pts) and Puckettt can make some shots this 2nd half.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Key has been playing too long to think that’s not gonna get called. She always seems so surprised when her lazy attempts to post get called as fouls.

You’re too big, they will never give you those calls!

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Silly point. Ohio State is probably the best pressing team in nation so it is not as simple as just practicing against press in practice.

That is why they need to practice it.

This is inaccurate. We played very good defense in the first half. They shot poorly because it was incredibly difficult for them to get a shot off.

As a Senior she has to do better meaning TK..

 

[cwbytruckers]

I wish we’d switch up the D and try for some steals.

I thought we would press more

 

[Twinsbornoncampus]

This team psych is messed up.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

The hell did they call?

 

[VOLINVONORE]

She’s afraid to get within 5’ of anyone with the officiating crew we have tonight.

She earned her fouls tonight. Lack of effort causes one to foul

 

[SGMVols]

Losing this game because of turnovers would be disappointing.

We need to be a 1 seed in the tournament to go to the Final Four and starting off the season with a loss won’t help.

 

[Coach Jumper]

49-49

 

[Twinsbornoncampus]

I few more turnovers and we fall out of the top ten.

 

[Amb3096]

They need to settle down...

 

[TN1111]

Bad… no composure

 

[Orange_Mamba]

I would like a TO

 

[ttharp]

Call a freaking timeout.

 

[cwbytruckers]

Harper call a timeout and actually coach for a change

Not watching the game due to work committments but following the play by play on espn and how the hell does every single post player we have on the team have 2 or 3 fouls in the 3rd quarter already ? Bad defense or homecourt advantage ? 5 pt lead for us still nice but im assuming because our bigs have been crippled against the smaller team these first 3 quarters ?
