Game Thread: Lady Vols Vs Vandy ; Sun Jan 19th ; Away game; 3 PM Eastern; SEC+

Nothing is fixed…interior defense sucks. This next stretch moves out of rankings.

Dang are you a quitter or what? Loser mentality, not a fan I see.

 

[Putbacks]

…and we don’t get to avenge at home this year either…

 

[charleyhorse]

Still haven’t fixed our interior defense nor our rebounding woes…

Or your 2 players taking 60% of team shots

 

[GameTime]

The refs were very big in this loss...

 

[VolFanGBO]

No ice in this teams veins.

 

[VolBall09]

The original drive by Pierre was a charge on the first shot...

I agree but like the no call in that situation. Our fault for not securing the rebound. Spearman just staring at the sky instead of finding a body.

We didn’t lose this one in the last second we lost it in the first half choosing not to play defense and settling for bad shots.

 

[Scotty4lvs]

Love Spencer but she stopped to watch the play and Blake's kept playing...ugh

How's that not a charge

home cooking - plenty of it last night too by Carey

 

[Memvol44]

Played great "D" didn't get rewarded

Home cooking

Lady Vols fouls: 24
Vanderbilt fouls: 16

If we didn’t have a great recruiting class the honeymoon would be over today. These end of game gags are becoming a problem.

 

[kayman1]

Was absolutely a charge. Refs have no balls and won't call that against the home team.

 

[volforlife15]

Wasting that timeout on the inbound play came back to bite us. And the not blocking out on the last shot too.

Wasted two TOs to turn the ball over on an inbound. So costly

 

[VolBall09]

Now we’re likely to lose 4 of the next 5 putting us solidly in the bottom half of the SEC. Refusal to play 40 minutes is killing this team. They want to turn it on at times but just will not play consistent defense. Infuriating when you know they can do it.

Beat me to it.

 

[GBO18]

Absolute charge the drive and shot that was rebounded for the win. Uncalled

Yep but most refs are scare to call that late in games. Doesn’t make it right.

 

[Vols2015]

Absolute charge the drive and shot that was rebounded for the win. Uncalled

While it may have been uncalled, we had plenty of chances and failed to close it out.

Nothing is fixed…interior defense sucks. This next stretch moves out of rankings.

Yep, we’ll drop to about 24 this week and then out next week after we lose to Texas and South Carolina. Not a good trajectory.

 

[Volinnooga]

Is that the lowest scoring total of the year? Didn’t see the game— did Vandy dlow the pace the whole game?

 

[RAVOL]

Spencer quitting on the play needs to be benched… you play until the whistle or buzzer

Finally the right place of blame on that put back. It was her man she stopped and watched while her player went to front of the rim.

you don’t know ball at all. We are not dropping to 24 after this loss. come on.

 

[GBO18]

While it may have been uncalled, we had plenty of chances and failed to close it out.

That does not matter at that point in the game. It was a charge.

 

[ttharp]

We have no idea how to win in late game situations, and it’s something that hasn’t been fixed under Kim. Still the same old 10-12 year issue.

I’m not taking anything away from the positives of the CKC era so far, it’s year one. But it’s exhausting that this issue hasn’t been fixed.

Also, Kellie Harper never lost to Vandy.

 

[Caz]

Just dumb ass luck or just snakebitten how a program as ours can lose on so many last second prayers! Go back to SC last year and it just ain’t right folks, bit that’s the game we play I guess. The men can’t seem to fare much better with the exception of Gainey’s last second shot against Illinois. Heartbreaks galore and one might think the law of averages might shine on the Orange and our fans some
