Game Thread: SEC tournament; Lady Vols v Kentucky,,Friday 8:15 PM, SEC network=win 80-71

I notice there are few fans in attendance.

It wasn't that long ago the arena would have been packed with Tennessee orange for three straight days.

 

[VolBall09]

Only scored 11 points in the second quarter against a team playing its 3rd game in 3 days.


SPRINT.

What's the problem? Inaccurate passes, or poor positioning in the post?

Yes

 

[turbovol]

Can someone please teach these ladies to just slow down and think what the hell they’re doing offensively?

Exactly! We throw passes to people without looking to see if they are open. Kick the ball out to Darby and others for 3s if they are crowding the paint--which Kentucky has been doing. It's sound like Harper has told them to get the ball inside--but our bigs are getting squeezed by defenders and have not been open--but we throw it in there anyway.

11 years ago today. In Nashville at the SECT. Still remember it like yesterday!

That’s awesome

 

[Volstylexx]

Kellie must have said “no more 3s” so they all decided that meant “pass into the double team.”

 

[VolBall09]

I guess I should point out Kentucky has 11 fouls to our 4. But only 6 free throws for us in that half (6-6).

Kentucky committed at least double that amount that were not called. I just don’t get it. That can’t be a teams strategy. If it’s a foul the officials need to call it. Period.

Perhaps the severe weather could have played a role.

They only scored 13 so just 2 points more than us.

I’m not into consolation prizes. No reason this should be an 8 point game. This is a 2-14 SEC team playing their third game in as many days. Suck it up and go beat the brakes off of them.

 

[Vols2015]

I like that shot from Striplin, even though she missed it.

 

[th2421]

Horston tried to do what Kentucky has been getting away with, but gets called for the immediate foul.

 

[LVol]

Horston dang!

 

[Volstylexx]

excuse me, sir. Who are you?

 

[Voluble2]

Horston going through a spell where she just destroys us again.

 

[VolBall09]

No call on the foul and then the ball clearly off Kentucky and the official just shrugs.

 

[Volstylexx]

That's the stat. That's the one that's going to end this season early in the NCAA's.

21 points off Tennessee turnovers and there are still 17 minutes left to play. OUCH

 

[th2421]

Horston quadruple double watch? 10 points, 5 boards, 5 assists, 5 turnovers (and 3 blocks).

 

[Volstylexx]

12 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks

in case you missed Horston's stat line.

 

[Vols2015]

Nice control by Horston!

 

[Volfan1000]

Lady Volunteers are going to have a beast of a time with LSU tomorrow if they get past Kentucky tonight.

 

[VolBall09]

Official “warned” petty on that moving screen. Wtf????? Again it’s either a foul or not. CALL IT

 

[Voluble2]

Nice catch by Striplin

I like the Lady Vols in the revenge game.
