I am surprised that most of the posters are picking the LVs by a double-digit margin. I will be excited if this happens. I am concerned that Auburn's specialty is that they create turnovers and score many points off of them. This has been a thorn in the LVs side in recent years. If this continues, the game will be a tossup. If we improve from the past about this, then it could be the romp many are predicting. I will believe it when I see it, especially on the road. I would love to be wrong here!

WTF forgets that one shining moment? LOL no true fans do. It's kinda all we've got. Also, in my head it's the beginning of RJ's decision to come back. Priceless.

I want TK to play alot, but can't see benching Strip right now. Maybe move Strip out to 4 and sit Sara? I don't love that bc of this:

Yes. She was playing very well. We need Sara, Jewel, and Strip to be reliable 10-15 ppg scorers. RIckea's reliable back up band. Then JP w 7-10 ppg including timely 3s, and 5 assists. Then we're cookin'.

I want to see them come out with the energy and intensity they started with Sunday. That was the most active I've seen the LVs in ages and it lasted throughout the game. I like the increased pace and the defensive ball pressure. With all the scoring, this could actually be a fun team to watch. Let's keep it going against a slightly better team.

LVs 84-71

Please don’t take one sentence of mine from a longer post in another thread and misconstrue its meaning.

This was in relation to in game coaching decisions not that people legitimately forgot TN won that game. Do better.

Always tough for us to win here as four years ago we won in overtime on a last second shot by Horston. Then lost last time we played down here by a big margin to a team that won 3 SEC games. We have no trouble with them at home, but for some reason we never play well there.

Must win. We have very little margin for error right now.

Cora Hall and Maria say the tigers defense is pretty good.
Let's see if Vols keep getting better offense flow.
Wynn 12 points no turnovers prove she play point guard tonight we see if she sec ready.
Ten point plus wins will help the net. Just can not lost or for sure a ten loss.

The most points they have given up in a game is 67 to California. They haven't played any great teams. Had an impressive win over Clemson 83 to 53. Won over Washington State 69 to 62 that is their best two wins. They average 70 points per game so we should be able to keep them to at least that amount probably less. Getting at least 70 points should give us a good chance to win. Massey says 71 which I think would be a good total. I am hoping were clicking like Liberty and score at least 80.

We are likely going to have to go 11-5 in SEC play to be safely in the tournament since we have no OOC resume to speak of. Oklahoma, our best win to date, is in a tailspin and is no longer projected in the tournament or even on the bubble.

Assuming the three games against SC and LSU to be losses, that means we would have to go 11-2 against everyone else. This is a must win game. We’ve left ourselves very little room for error.

Why are people saying we will lose to any team, I can’t believe this.

I can answer my own question: Nobody, apparently. Those two are the only two SEC teams in the Top 20. A&M, based on "other teams that got top 20 votes" might be around 25 or so, and then Miss. State and Vandy got 3 votes each, as I recall.

There are 8 projected in the NCAA tournament per bracketology this week and Tennessee is not showing on that list at this time. Look for upsets in the SEC just like we saw in pre-season throughout the country. Tennessee will be back on that list soon.
