LSU has a Coach who knows her x's and o's,having been a Lady Vol and playing with Holly as an Assistant coach,and Coaching against Holly so she will absolutely out coach our coach.I predict that she will start out in a zone to take Mercedes out of the game by sagging in a 2/3 zone.So our outside shooters will have to shoot LSU out of that zone.The only other option to generate offense is to have a lock down defense ,rebound and get out on the break and beat them down the court .....that is the best offense that they have had all year.But I do not expect that LSU will allow themselves to be nbeaten back very often so a half court offense will be required against a zone defense.

I expect a close game just like I predicted against Ole Miss with their two big posts and one good guard who was a scorer.LSU will play Holly a competitive game because she is very familiar with what the Lady Vols will do or not do and she has the edge in coaching.I just hope that the LV's can get off to a fast start offensively ,get out in front early and play some defense for a change.....would recommend that Holly start in a zone since the LV's can not keep anyone in front of them from driving to the rim.

Am hoping for a win.

^^^^ Seems that this was right on target.When Holly plays into the hands of opposing coaching playing at a slow tempo,this team will lose.Regressing instead of improving and that my fellow posters is coaching pure and simple.

42 to 25 second half. 23 offensive rebounds terrible no matter who you play. Team has regressed under Holly it is obvious.

I wish we were meaner! We have a bunch of pleasant young ladies but Westbrook is the only one out there who will be physical and actually get mean! She may not always play smart but she plays with heart. I think she takes losing personal and I think her team needs to follow her lead.

I hope they are just peed off and wanna take off A&Ms head.

Well, now we've seen the LVs roll over and quit twice in one week-- in two I Back Pat games. What a disgraceful lack of effort and pride. Shame on them-- players, coaches, all of them.

Time was that was an achievement. Now, it ranks with beating Carson-Newman.

I guarantee you that Nikki Caldwell Fargas is thrilled to get this win today because I'm sure that a big part of her feels like she was more deserving of a shot at coaching Tennessee than was Holly. With far lesser talent she beat Holly = validation.

When Holly is fired is when I start watching them again. Today just makes me mad and i don't want to be mad over a stupid game

When you letting teams get three and four attempts at the basket you aren't playing with effort. If LSU had any talent they could challenge for the National Championship. The one thing they do is play hard and with effort.

I don't think they have confidence in the system and are crestfallen.

Holly got the job because no one else would hire her to be a head coach and Pat wanted her rewarded for being so loyal. Now were paying as fans looks like we'll keep on paying until a change is made. We don't get better as the season progresses we get worse.

The hell with this. I just wasted two hours of a beautiful winter day when I could have been enjoying it. I don't think I'll ever watch another LV game as long as Holly is the head coach--its too painful.
