Game Thread: Lady Vols @ Auburn: Thurs Jan 4, 7:02 p.m. CT (8:02 Eastern) ; SECN+ Win 75-67

[Volstylexx]

Yeah we lose this one and NCAA tourney is pretty much out of the question.

The net ranking was 71 before this game. We were already pretty much toast, imo.

 

[alexvol]

headed,,,we go any further south,,we'll be in the Atlantic

You mean the Gulf of Mexico.

I am done posting tonite .....Good nite all .

 

[Coach Jumper]

If that happens

Embarssing 1st half. We are to slow no quickness without Powell. All the turnovers are in our side of court and that screams of their D is to quick for us. One more half let's see if the urgency picks up because this was a bad half. In CHRIST Alone

if that happens, the bus driver better look under the bus for players

 

[SGMVols]

If Kenpom did women’s BB we would probably rank in the 200s defensively.

 

[Majors]

If we lose tonight, and assuming we don’t win any of the 3 games against SC and LSU, we’ll have to just about run the table against everyone else to get in the tournament safely.

If we lose tonight we will drop another 2-3, plus LSU and SC. Only chance would be winning the tournament.

This Rickea is all the team has talk is the dumbest argument to use at this moment. RJ is a lottery pick and one of the best in WBB no doubt. Yet tonight she isn’t carrying the team right now in any form or fashion. Her performance tonight is 3rd best on the team in the 1st half.

If it wasn’t for Kaiya Wynn and some of the timely baskets made by Jewel Spear there wouldn’t even be a chance for TN to win this game. Down by 8 points is the best they could hope for and again that’s due mainly in part to Wynn and Spear in addition to a handful of shots by Rickea.

Powell, Puckett, and Darby haven’t provided anything in the 1st half. That’s disappointing.

She’s all we’ve got. Wake up

 

[Twinsbornoncampus]

The Lady Vols .Auburn and Vandy playing to see who is worst team in the league .

Don’t have to be good when the opponent give you an extra 14 shots

 

[AllVol68]

Tennessee is a team of good support players that start.

I'm watching the Duke-Louisville games during timeouts in the LV game.
Duke runs the same offense that the LV's do. The only difference is Jackson.
Neither team looks like they have an idea of what to do when the defense takes away the first option. Neither team shoots the ball very well, and both teams are way too careless with the ball.

 

[I4Vols]

Wynn can’t run point.

She's shown some previous game ability to be the backup, but
Tonight TK would be a better PG

TO's, selfish play, but maybe that's the acceptable offensive leadership as it seems Coach K cannot find the ability to rip into a player, thus they don't remember, don't care, don't learn, don't change... chose your poison

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

well,,,we still have our four timeouts

That was the most pathetic coaching I have seen yet for Kellie
No working the refs
no timeouts to re-group
letting 14 turnovers happen without getting into someone's grill

Said it before. She’s too nice. Too much of a friend to people. Just an attractive, down home girl. She doesn’t have the fire to step off in the officials and discipline her team.

Need Powell out there. Wynn doesn’t have the handle for point but she is trying. They have no inside talent, TN still can win.

It’s not hard to understand. Make RJ score less and let someone else beat you. Result is down at halftime. Same as last year except Horston isn’t playing.

Are you really insane or just pretending? Rickea has 10 pt and 8 rebs. Without her we're behind by 20.

This is awful. Turnover city, and that's the one place Rickea has been subpar. Started the game with the dreaded spin into t.o. move. And poor Kaiya. Good for the scoring but dang we need Powell. This is what we were afraid of.

And when Rickea went down . . .

Wynn has 5 turnovers at the half. Have to subtract those to what she's doing well.

When she went down the season was over until she got up and walked off. If she limped off it was over.

 

[WinnerCircle]

Wynn has hurt us today more then helped. Her turnovers have been horrible.

What are you watching? This is done right nonsense.
