Game Thread: Liberty v Lady Vols, Sat. Nov 16th; Home-FCC; Noon; SEC+ network

Favor should get all of Darby’s minute imo. Her defense is excellent. Let her play the back of that press and pick off those long passes.

The officiating in the women’s game is awful. These people are incompetent.

 

[UT Challenger]

BS call on Cooper

 

[GameTime]

Not a charge....

I was about to say, when Favor is in, I know something good is going to happen defensively.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

I can't stand no defense

They get them from the rec league at the Y so we cannot expect too much.

 

[VolBall09]

It’s really just a few players letting everyone else down defensively. They need to take personal responsibility and get better. Their teammates need to hold them accountable as well.

No reason to give up those last few buckets there.

I don't think that people are giving this Liberty team enough credit. This is a pretty dang good team, better than our last opponent.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Good thing this game was decided early because Liberty has given the staff a lot to be disappointed by.

i will say, they have impressed me. a very mobile back to the basket post with some guards who are good under pressure and can shoot the three.

Same with Latham, they bust their butt and bring the energy. Favor is going to earn herself more minutes.

It’s painful watching some of the slower girls try to defend in comparison to someone like Favor, Coop or Boyd

 

[Orange Maniac]

Well, I missed the score prediction badly. Thought our defense would be a little better.

Which goes with the idea that the roster is really mismatched at the moment. Half the players are perfect for the style, the other half too slow.

 

[GameTime]

Next season our court speed will be legendary....This season we all know the slow girls.

 

[ttharp]

The returners just can’t hang. Painful to watch.

Same here lol. Under estimate our offense and over estimated our defense.

I don't think they're better than MTSU, but they are definitely way better than Samford or UT-Martin. They are a top 3-point shooting team, though, and right now our press is allowing for a LOT of open 3s.

Why in the world is anyone talking about this is what we have to work with this year?
Duke a Top 20 team beat Liberty 83-67.
Tennessee has scored 89 points in three quarters.
This thread is comical at the moment.

No it's all of them that can't stop a dribble drive, just like it's always been. It's like they just don't practice it.

And the other issue is size. Sorry, it still counts. Not much they can do w Liberty's center once she gets the ball inside.

Still an ugly win lol

Smuda won’t get this many uncontested layups the rest of the season.

Uh no it’s definitely.

I'm telling you, if this is an NCAA Tournament game, I'm badly wanting us to slow this game up, score 105 and win. Keeping up the frantic pace is going to keep Liberty in the game.
