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

Do you think taking more 3's was part of the game plan ?
I'm not enamored with it for this team.

 

[Real Info]

Well at least we seem to be only playing one super slow player at a time.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Whew 3 second call negates three ball.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Pissott should have shot that.

 

[Volstylexx]

I can’t believe Wynn and Pissott are both seeing the floor tonight. That right there tells you that Kellie feels like her seat is hot. She’s desperate for a win.

 

[Voltopia]

Ok Pissott, when you’re that wide open, you have my - and everyone’s - permission to shoot.

 

[SGMVols]

Pissott took a bad shot then two possessions later passed up a wide open one

 

[87&91ALUM]

Another miss by Horston and don’t agree with jump ball…ole Miss fouled big time

 

[87&91ALUM]

Another missed three.

 

[LadyVol1908]

Jesus Horston has to be 3 for 163749203

 

[87&91ALUM]

28-21 halftime

 

[volnationnj]

Pissott took a bad shot then two possessions later passed up a wide open one

The players are feeling the pressure too.

 

[zaqhhh]

Ik Pissott is young and you want to give her minutes but she is slow and seems to never make anything

 

[youcancallmeAl]

Pissott turned down an open three at the line and passed to JH who missed a highly contested 2 point shot.

 

[Vols2015]

Horrible half

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Dribbling down the clock, this time Horston, who did not score.

 

[Volfan2012]

Not playing very well except maybe defense some of the time. Really ugly offensive basketball. Puckett shot two threes that didn't hit the rim and Pissott 1. Don't usually say this but our best player is Walker thus far.

 

[volfan__18]

Horrible half

yet we are up 7 to an above average team. i’ll take it.

 

[LadyVol1908]

The players are feeling the pressure too.

Bingo! Everybody looks tight!

 

[volnationnj]

Ole Miss at 25% shooting, LV's at 30%. Not pretty but I'll take the 7 point advantage.

 

[Vols2015]

I almost sense our Lady Vols are down and out for losing back to back games, but we have got to let all that go and move forward. I hope they come out energized, and ready to score.

 

[Volstylexx]

Halftime stats:

Rebounds (even)
Free throws (even)
Turnovers (essentially even 5/6)
TN shooting 30% compared to 25% for Ole Miss

 

[Prophet1]

Kellie is rotating players in and out so quickly how do the ladies get into the flow of the game?
Hey, Kellie don't forget to throw Miles in also.

 

[sechamp2012]

These refs some junior mistakes that was not a jump ball with Wynn. Not saying calling against Vols just some head scratching calls and no calls both ways. Looks like church league refs just low on experience.

 

[Amb3096]

Not sure this is the game to play around with the rotation so much. They're letting Ole Miss stay close enough that this game could still be tight all the way through the 2nd half.

As for the questions to play Pissott, I think we see here why she's not playing. The two long balls she took missed horribly, and for some reason she passed up a wide opne one when the Ole Miss defense completely lost her. She needs to work on her in-game composure.

Hollinshead and Franklin are playing well.

Still think that Tennessee wins by about 10, but Kellie needs to tighten up the rotation in the 2nd half. Striplin and Pissott should probably take a seat until the game gets out of reach.
