Game Thread Lady Vols vs Syracuse in the Elite 8

[VolnJC]

I support the team, not the stupid coach.

coach is part of the team there hoss

 

[casetopia]

it was obvious today that the lady vols were satisfied to make it this far. whatever fire had been lit was out today before the game even started.

 

[Spacejam]

Crazy how they got within three at one point and then everything went downhill, she didn't make much of an adjustment in the second half. like i said before they need better guards, Carter and Middleton gave us nothing from off the bench.

another turn over by cooper

 

[MDVolFan14]

Cooper is so out of control its a joke.

It's coaching. She has talent but she's young and needs to be coached. She's doing what she knows from HS and it's not working at this level. Someone on that staff should be going over film and situational basketball. I learned how to play PG 32 years ago in HS and was taught not to dribble into double teams, corners, etc.

And you play defense with your feet and not your hands... She needs to be coached now at the position.

Huge weakness of this team is three point shooting ability. None of the guards other than Dunbar shoot 30 percent.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Another golden final four opportunity gone..

Yep. UCONN will beat the Cuse by 40 if they play each other.

 

[YankeeVol]

You're down 21, take out Graves. Why risk further injury.

 

[Volfan2012]

Holly needs to take out as many starters as she can and let Middleton and Moore play.

 

[djtee]

this is where Reynolds is needed,for when Cooper is playing out of control

Holly lets her play out of control she refuse to get in there face. Did you see the Syracuse coach in a time in Butler face on TV Holly to soft.

You are what your record says. Not surprising the Lady Vols that showed up was the one that underachieved the entire season. Good run though.

Agree plus they cannot generate points off the block wih the biggest girl in the game.

Gonna miss Bashaara! She's always been one of my favorites! Gutting it out in her last game with a broken finger/hand... Thanks Bashaara!

 

[governmentmule]

down by this much why isn't Dunbar in ?

This post made me laugh

NO. And we can only hope it gets fixed soon.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Well, we got to the Elite 8....time to go home to K-Town.

 

[orangealways]

Let's just put a Syracuse jersey on cooper
She passes more to them than us

330th in basketball lol:

True- but really didn't expect them to get past the second round. So they overachieved in the tourney in my book.

 

[utkCREW]

wish there was more fighting in women's basketball.

Like, throw an elbow, pull some hair, take off the earrings and tackle a b**ch


Maybe that would make Wcbb more fun to watch. I've been going about these viewership rants of mine on the Miss set thread all wrong ...there just needs to be more cat fights!!!!

We were up 7 in the first quarter!! The game changed when TN didn't hold for the last shot and there was a 4 point swing going into the second quarter.

 

[YankeeVol]

Come on, we just need 7 threes!

 

[Volfan2012]

We need to throw up a three everytime down maybe we'll get lucky.

Yep she's been a solid Vol!
