Game Thread: Lady Vols vs. Ole Miss; Thurs Feb 2nd @ 6:30PM; SECN+

[Volfan2012]

Really strange game we won by 14 and really were kind of terrible offensively. We played some match up zone in this game and it created a lot of steals and bad passes by Ole Miss.

Nice win. Mississippi is a good team. Great defense by both teams 9-1 BABE. As always go Lady Vol's.

OMG MILES IS IN

Almost insulting at this point

Won’t be the elite teams with this production. Someone out that group has to become a consistent shooter now that Hollingshead is becoming more of an inside threat.

Hollingshed is a year away from being one of the best in the SEC. Mark my words. If Tamari is back next year, Hollingshed is our 4 and she will be a nightmare to every opposing team.

It was a home game.

Maybe they were pulling for Ole Miss.

 

[Volfan2012]

Glad to see Horston go to her strength on offense paint ball 10 feet in.

Massey’s predicted a 7 point win, we won by 14. We started out really slow, and OM still couldn’t catch up. We got going with around 4 minutes left in the third. We woke up and got a needed win. Congrats Lady Vols!

Ugly game with a great ending. I hope this game helps them make some substitution decisions going forward.

Yes, but we don't seem to scheme to get our best shooters a good shot.

Freshman who doesn’t play is getting same production as those ahead of her.

RJ and JH create shots, those others are statues on the outside waiting

Wait. But that would be a coaching move...

Agreed. You could see the potential there last year at UGA and earlier this year but I didn't expect her to necessarily turn a corner this season. Kudos to her for putting in the work and to the coaching staff for developing her (since everyone likes to say we don't develop talent...).

New chart knew we would get to get the number one SOS and we did tonight.

A move she should've made earlier in the season. Creates a lot of help under the basket on the drives to the basket.

I kind of felt relaxed most of the game. Kellie even called a timeout…or Jon…or Joy….or Sam…or CJ…

Ole Miss still has LSU and South Carolina so every SEC team will have at least 5 losses outside of SC LSU and UT. UT definitely has 3rd place wrapped up barring a major collapse.

Seems that a lot of dedicated fans who were furiously posting in the first half must have had an early bedtime.

Regardless, I'm sure they'll be very pleased when they wake up to another win.

 

[Volfan2012]

Happy with the way we defended them 71 point average scores 51 so a minus 20. You defend this well you don't need a great offense. Maybe a few more points scored against top ranked teams, but you can win with defense.

Game really helped us and still a chance and first and second if we can keep winning up to SC game. That game would be for first more than likely unless SC gets upset which doesn't seem likely to happen.

Ya didn’t see Jillian creating shots? Franklin created no shots? GTFO

 

[Prophet1]

Two starters with 0 points and 3 points and the lightning quick rotations moves stood out the most for me.

Primary reason I avoid the live gamethread. Darth will show up…after the Sakerlina game prolly…

Think you missed players mentioned from the previous message. So guess I won’t GTFO

They have at least 3rd pace locked up, still have a chance for the title.
