Game Thread: Lady Vols Vs UCONN. ; Thurs Feb 6th ; Home game; 6:30 PM Eastern; ESPN...WIN 80-76

Was that Karl Ravech with Lobo tonight on the call?

Nope, it was Ryan Ruocco. Or, as I'll call him from now on, Mr. "Tennessee Hasn't Beaten UConn Since 2007."

Rickea couldn't be there with the rest of the LVFLs, but she still had her fun with her Mist teammates who are Huskies. Expect to see Stewie and Alliyah in orange in the tunnel tomorrow night.

Part of me wonders if Geno's just lost his touch. For the longest time he had an aura of invincibility, and he seems pretty pedestrian anymore. His teams are obviously still in or around the top ten, but it seems the days of UConn dominance are just ... gone. Kinda wonder how long he'll stick around.

Kim kicked his ass. Don’t try to minimize what our ladies accomplished.

That annoyed me.
They acted like they have beaten us 17 years in a row or something.

Agree. It occurred to me tonight that this is the moment Geno got officially passed by. Just like he passed Pat in the 2000 Nat Champ game. There's just too many good players and too many good teams.

Kim kicked his ass.

My favorite part was when Holly Rowe asked how they pulled out the win and she simply said “ we outworked em!”
Suck it Geno!!

I’m not sure who won the pool on this game pick, but I was ever so close, I got the winner right, got the Uconn points exact and was off by three on UT

Edit: Mad might have tied me, damn him

Y'all, I think I'm still in shock. I can't remember the last time we had such a complete team win. Every single Lady Vol gave maximum effort, and not a single Lady Vol hurt us. There's usually great performances by some in wins, and at least one bad performance by someone. EVERYONE brought it.

I've never felt any prouder of a Tennessee team. They really came together and believed in each other and got the big win.

Pretty sure I won't be able to sleep tonight, and I couldn't be happier.

Oh! Gotta wonder if that unbelievable driving layup by Boyd will make Sports Center. That was crazy. It was also when I knew the Lady Vols were going to win.

I'm happy for the team, staff, past Lady Vols and Tennessee fans that we got to see our team give maximum effort with utter confidence. That doesn't happen very often, so I hope everyone will enjoy it for a few days.

GO LADY VOLS!

Somebody in the comments said “Kea please don’t make me bring up Kamilla’s bank shot” I laughed soooo hard!

 

[Rooster1]

If only I had not been booted from the boneyard a week or so ago, I could go there tonight and see the carnage. Oh well, let me just imagine, sometimes that is even better than the real thing. What a great game by UT.

 

[BruisedOrange]

Wow! Not the news I was expecting to return home to after a stimulating evening of listening to some great HS students defending their senior theses!

Gonna enjoy Freak's posting of the game video with an extra nice beer! Way to go Lady Vols!!!

She is a recruiting tool for the Huskies. My nickname for her is "CT Lobot."

Here here! I’m drinking some wine, eating some cheese and catching some rays man (oddball).

 

[GameTime]

Simply Impressive....
The team owned the defining moment....
Hot damn!

 

[Orange.]

I’m so excited and happy I don’t know if I can sleep tonight.

Not too much carnage over there...most are talking about the missed layups, missed 3's and no post play for points and rebounds. All true. Also true, you guys deserved to win and yes, played great.

So Car will destoy this UConn team.

I think you might be right. Hope my team can keep it close.

Diff teams, diff matchups. But I suspect there is a good chance you are spot on @glv98

Rebecca was, IMO pretty good tonight. No cringe worthy comments and I didn't detect any bias tonight.

Yeah, I usually give her grief when I feel she's not being fair about things, but she was pretty much spot on tonight.
