I wonder if Janiah Barker from TA&M transfers after this year?

Yo, Janiah....

Oh, and it's fun to think that Geno's water bottle toss ended up resulting in a 4-pt possession for SC, and that they lost by four points. Who knows? Maybe the game ends in regulation tied if not for Auriemma, sending it to overtime. Yeah, I'm going to say that's what would have happened. lol

 

[creekdipper]

I'm so happy I was wrong in my belief that CT would pull off the upset. They came dangerously close, but so glad they lost.

ABC, baby. ABC.

I’m sorry but a healthy UCONN team is going to be scary good! I really can’t wait until the day we’re really good again and play exciting, hard nosed basketball.

We will once we are able to get 2 number 1 recruits with play makers and athletic players on the same roster.

Geno draws a tech for throwing a water bottle. Lost composure …agin[/QUOTE
I loved it sometimes it’s good to lose composure our coach should lose it ever so often

Huge day watching these games as a true LVs supporter. Great opportunities await the LVs as they hit the final stretch of February. There’s some chatter right now about the South Carolina vs UCONN game, it didn’t show me much. I’m anticipating playing South Carolina even more now at TBA.

 

[NeedOrange]

There will be a minimum of 8 players available to Uconn…..if they only are playing 5 then that is their problem for not recruiting players that can contribute in February.

Wow. I sincerely hope SCAR never has a rash of injuries. But if many SCAR fans have your attitude it may be unavoidable. (Galatians 6:7)

Looks like SC has two token starters as it is clear that Cardoso and Johnson should be starting over Fletcher and Saxon. At least they are getting starters minutes which is making the difference.

Good point because Saxon has done nothing up to this point will it happen ? You can even go with 6-3 fr Watkins when she has played she has been a handful on the low blocks.

 

[JordyG]

I disagree. I don’t think any of UCONNs stars would affect how the game would be won by SC. They beat them last year with all their stars available. Just because you’re down players doesn’t mean that once those players return, they are just gonna go off. You also have to remember the players who have had to step up due to lack of player availability, their production could go down with the reintroduction of players who are coming back from injury. So really, it just evens itself out.

Actually, SCar beat them last year when Azzi played 16 minutes because of a stomach illness, and Paige was at about 75%. But yes, UConn lost to a better team last year.

Yep, better beat them now while they're shorthanded! Oh, wait...

 

[JCP201]

What of Kara Lawson Duke beating Notre Dame? I was rooting for her when they were doing the hiring for our team.

 

[Vols2015]

A&M giving LSU a game.

Looks like Phil hired the wrong former Lady Vol...

 

[Gilmore]

Technical on Reese for taunting. Refs fed up with her antics.

 

[ncteacher88]

SC is the program now

Notre Dame was THE program when they beat Connecticut five out of seven times. Baylor was THE program when they had two of the five best players in the country and had won national championship (during that stretch). Oregon was supposed to be the new THE program. Currently South Carolina has had two stretches because they’ve had two of the best players in the game, Wilson and Boston. Before I believe they are THE new top program I have to see more continuous success. If they win this year it will be three national championships. That puts them in the same category with Stanford, Notre Dame, Baylor, La Tech, USC, all with either two or three, still far far behind Tennessee and Connecticut.

 

[Vols2015]

Angel Reese with a taunting technical foul…not the first from her, or the last to be called.

 

[djtee]

LSU Reese just teed up taunting at Barker

 

[Vols2015]

Williams wasn’t set for LSU. She was on her tiptoes. Poor call.

 

[DSunAthletics]

For all the talent VolNation posters claim is on the court during this LSU vs Texas A&M game, the score is 49-42 end of the 3rd qtr.

 

[Vols2015]

Reese just shoved a player to get the offensive board..no call

 

[Vols2015]

A&M giving LSU all they can handle. 60-55 4:30 left in game. Back to back defensive stops for A&M.

Why?

A&M giving LSU all they can handle. 60-55 4:30 left in game. Back to back defensive stops for A&M.

Away from home, all these 30+ point wins are disappearing.

 

[DSunAthletics]

LSU just isn’t a really good team.

 

[th2421]

Reese just shoved a player to get the offensive board..no call

I saw that, too. She has basically no shooting ability (her first shot is usually really ugly) but then she shoves players out of the way to get so many offensive boards and then "gets fouled" to get herself to the free throw line.

This game is yet another example of how LSU has done nothing at all to merit their cockiness.

Morris with 20 points but also 9 turnovers.
