Game Thread: Lady Vols v Mizzou 3 PM Sunday at Mizzou, SEC+ (stream)

Just one word... rebound

 

[chuckiepoo]

Darby needs to come alive in the second half. And Puckett needs to bomb away. We need to hit 5 to 7 second half threes to win this.

Just a few.

 

[UT Challenger]

refs are bad, but at least they are bad both ways, so far --- looking for a big 3rd quarter pull-away

What game are you watching

 

[alexvol]

Yep, Horston leads the team in defensive rebounding, and has a 19.5% defensive rebounding percentage, meaning that we're used to having her grab the defensive board in about 1 in 5 opportunities. Gotta adjust.

Agree .Where Horston is being missed the most in this game is rebounding ....especially on the defensive end.

As an aside, I believe that the Mizzou Center shuffles both feet damn near every time she touches the ball

Somehow got to win today again without one of our main players in a game. Va Tech no Jackson, Indiana no Horston, No Horston today, Key out for the season. We can't catch a break another season where we've had bad luck with players facing injury or illness.

 

[RAVOL]

Striplin had a big first half!

She did. She has great feet if she was quicker man she would average double digits easy every game.

 

[VolBall09]

wonder why,,,when your minutes are so micro-managed you begin to try to do too much in the little time you get

That’s a reach. Sorry. Both her calls were bs on rebounds. She was hustling and doing her usual. She had already started her shooting motion when they called the second one.

No doubt with injuries and sickness. Be nice to pull off this road win means showing growth. In CHRIST Alone

They call to many charges for my liking across men and women’s basketball.

 

[RAVOL]

It was a T Key Stretch

 

[Coach Jumper]

What a childish remark. You should hear the words that Lady Vol administration members and coaches use to describe you!

Like you have

 

[ttharp]

Gotta rebound much better in the 2nd half. The refs have been terrible, but it was offensive rebounding that kept Mizzou in the game. You have to control what you can control.

RJ gets lots of her rebounds that way. She jumps so quickly she can reach over and tip the ball back. She better watch it now though, she has to stay out there.

I think the question of RJ getting us off to a good offensive start was settled today. i just hate that something happens every time she gets in offensive rythmn.

 

[Voluble2]

Puckett did not even go for the rebound on the long three.

 

[VolBall09]

Lovely

Lots of standing happening. Not acceptable. Blah.

 

[VolFanGBO]

what a joke

 

[Vols2015]

why are we leaving open 3 point shooters?! I don’t understand.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

What a terrible start to second half

 

[SGMVols]

Can’t help but feel like we’re eventually going to pay for giving up all these wide open threes

And there it is

 

[orange beard]

I said midway in 2nd Kellie was going to ass around and let them back in the game with her crazy subs

 

[Texas]

Sara Puckett is too slow.

 

[Vols2015]

She hasn’t even subbed yet. It’s a lack of our players awareness,

Yeah not good so far. She has to be more assertive offensively. We need her to score today and for some reason she’s acting pretty passive at the moment.
