Starting to get nervous now.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Get it Darby!

 

[VolBall09]

Two big shots from Tess. Have to stop losing Gregory in transition.

 

[OrangeBeachVol]

Guess we have to admit MTSU pretty good.

Does not look like we are maintaining pace in all phases. Our press in most instances looks like just token pressure and not really aggressive like I would expect.

Yeah officiating has prevented us from getting in any sort of rhythm and we haven’t gotten the easy buckets off turnovers in the second half we need to feed this offense.

Very good timing for Tess to finally hit a couple.

with the way this game has been called they can’t afford to get ticky tacky fouls rn with an agressive press.

They’re receiving votes in the polls

They were a round of 32 team last year and almost got to the s16

This is not a “buy game”

This would be at least a quad 2 win with an outside chance to turn into a quad 1

We also lost to them last season. Never forget.

They are terrible

Especially the blonde. She called a jump ball from half court and the guy ref called a foul and he saw the play best cause he was under the basket where it happened. She overruled him.

Foul trouble more than anything, we have 21 now. 5 players with at least 3 fouls

They are good. Team you play in 2nd round of Tournament

Don't need to get "handsy" with aggressive pressure just need to move your feet and get in better position to force decisions by ballhandlers.

 

[VolBall09]

Why would Puckett not show on that screen? Nobody behind her but 3 lady vols and lets the girl shoot a wide open 10 footer.

 

[VolBall09]

MTSU knows the officials will bite at anything so they’re just flailing around and getting calls. It’s really irritating

I think they just lost 1 starter from last year

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Their big has 0 fouls…

 

[lfvol]

It’s never called but Darby walks before most jumpers when she hops to reset both feet smh

 

[Real Info]

Blonde ref is awful

 

[adam.vol]

I was not aware that Zach Edey was with MTSU now. That has to be why the refs keep blowing whistles on fouls that I can’t seem to catch with my own eyes..

 

[Voluble2]

Not a bad strategy to wear the other team's legs out before you play Darby. Then the speed equals out.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

MTSU gonna get a call every possession now, watch.

 

[VolBall09]

Their big has 0 fouls…

In all fairness she has really not fouled imo. She plays very tentative and stays straight up.

Their coaches for sure telling them to sell it. I absolutely despise when official reward that.

She’s had at least 2 offensive fouls I have counted.
