Hopefully they don't give Morgan Eye 20 looks from downtown like they normally do. The only outside shots she should be taking are the ones where she's got a defender sniffing her armpits.

Haha exactly. I'm assuming either carter or jones, if she is cleared to play, will have the job at trying to shut her down ?

I saw the game, Missouri vs. Mo. State, and Missouri looked good on defense, considering that Mo. State is on the cupcake side of the ledger. They do not appear to be any where close to Oregon State's team or as good as they were last year. Their 10 wins were not wins against any major competition. I would not be surprised to see Tennessee kick some serious butt. That is if the Ladies play up to their ability and not down to the competition.

Except for the first game against Mizzou two seasons ago, Tennessee has a bad habit of collapsing on the post players and leaving Eye wide open for a kick out three. You know that she's just waiting out there to shoot the three, so whoever is defending her...Carter, Jones, whatever...just needs to NOT leave her. She took 41 threes in the H2H, and made 16 of them. That is inexcusable defense. They need to limit her touches and make it hard for her to get her shot off.

Oregon State was good practice on guarding the kick out three. We will see how much "growth" our program is having on how we defend this 3 pointer team. We should easily win this game due to rebounding, causing turnovers and scoring, and playing defense.

This should be a 20 plus point win at least. We usually give these type teams a lot of help and make the game a lot closer than it should have been. We'll see if we have any energy tonight that will determine if we beat them big or sleep walk to a 8 to 10 point win.
