Not dead yet

 

[Voluble2]

Nice getting some points with the clock stopped.

 

[Volstylexx]

NC State went away from what was working - pushing the pace. Lady Vols have closed to within single digits after outscoring 17-7 in the third quarter.

50-58 NC state going to the 4th

 

[therealitytheory]

Let’s cut it to ten before the 4th !!

[turbovol]

Classic 3rd quarter--we're in it. Slowing the game down was key. Defense will be key.

 

[OL SMOKEY]

Let’s go ladies. You can do this.

 

[Vols2015]

Much better play on both ends, and we made our free throws. 10 more minutes Lady Vols to claw back, take the lead, and punch your ticket to the sweet 16.

 

[Vols2015]

Classic 3rd quarter--we're in it. Slowing the game down was key. Defense will be key.

Having Tamari on the court is also Key!

 

[knoxvol52]

Good Quarter just hope State's shooting sucks in 4th Quarter..

 

[LadyViking/Vol]

Now.. it’s a ballgame !! Lady Vols can win this game !

 

[Volfan2012]

We cut a nine possession game down to a four possession game. We have a shot if we can just play that same quarter again. 58 to 50

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Down 8 points going to 4th, we can do this.

 

[RAVOL]

What’s the score yall?!

58-50 pack

 

[th2421]

We won that quarter 19-9. Do it again and we win 69-67.

 

[Volstylexx]

State will play tighter and tighter the closer we get. We need to play smart and have the ball in the hands of our players who can score. No quick threes jacked up from outside.

 

[Voltopia]

Down to 8 with one quarter to go. I hope they put it together. One or two good stops, get it to a two possession game and it's RUH ROH RAGGY time.

 

[I4Vols]

NC State went away from what was working - pushing the pace. Lady Vols have closed to within single digits after outscoring 17-7 in the third quarter.

We also played better D and JP hit her freebies. They clearly were concerned with us having Key on the floor.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

Wish we had the legs to throw a press at them.
