The announcers killing me saying on the pre-game show that each of the starting 5 for TX are up for national POY. LOL

Truly though, the SEC has evolved a lot. When Pat was scheduling for March the SEC wasn’t nearly what it is today. Georgia and LSU (under Chapman) were always good for a game and that was about it. Sometimes Kentucky or Auburn would have a good season. Ole Miss had a couple with Price but it was hit or miss. Otherwise it was pretty likely we were comfortably running the table every season.

The level of coaching has improved so much in the last decade it is a much more competitive league. It was always an athletic league but there weren’t the coaches there are today getting it out them.

Totally agree. As KM proved, you can sched light as a feather preseason if you're conf is tough enough. Which the SEC most assuredly is. I totally get the race to the bottom of the cupcake rack but it still is not a very fan friendly experience.

When your in the SEC you have to schedule fairly light in the post season. UConn has the Big East so they always need to schedule stronger out of league.

I think you mean preseason and I get it. Plenty of SOS in the SEC. But then there's scheduling "fairly light" and there's . . .

Iowa now up 6 on Mich St early in the third.

I'm not paying for ESPN+ so please keep posting up dates on the TX/Richmond game.

Since in the last few seasons with the net there is no proof the better schedule helps you in the post season. That is a big reason so many teams are going away from it. Were 108 right now which is top four in the SEC.

 

[Volfan2012]

Lead up to nine for Iowa. Olsen hitting the three today.

 

[Volfan2012]

After one quarter it is Texas 20 and Richmond 11.

 

[glv98]

Mich St has cut lead down to 6 late in 3rd qtr.

 

[Volfan2012]

Texas 33 Richmond 18 couple minutes left in the half.

 

[Volfan2012]

Iowa folding again game is tied.

 

[Terrells Bay88]

NC State is leading Louisville 40-13 on the road in the 2nd quarter.

Not sure if Richmond is really that good, but I'm not very impressed with Texas in this game.

 

[SGMVols]

Iowa has fallen apart in the 4th like they did vs us lol.

 

[KnoxLikeUs]

Watching Texas vs Richmond just not impressed with the Longhorns.

 

[Vols2015]

Reality starting to sink in too lol.

 

[SGMVols]

18-2 Michigan State run

for all the talk about Iowa’s depth, they sure do have a tendency to run out of gas quickly late in games

 

[SGMVols]

Everybody is going to press Iowa after this one

Wow didn't see that coming. Jeff's young uns can really struggle sometimes.

But Iowa is better basketball players! It those darn athletes on opposing teams again.

Lead for MSU just 3 w a min to go.

 

[Vols2015]

I love seeing the Iowa coach getting beat after what she said following the TN game.

 

[VolBall09]

Lucy Olsen ain’t no Caitlin Clark I’ll tell you that much. Really unimpressed with her game.

 

[VolBall09]

Everybody is going to press Iowa after this one

They have ZERO ball handlers. Shocking they wouldn’t have addressed that knowing they were losing the greatest PG ever.

Olsen is not a point guard. She’s a midrange 2 guard which is useless in the modern game.

 

[glv98]

Mich St hangs on in a back and forth game, wins by 2.

Both teams are decent but nothing to write home about.

 

[VolBall09]

Kellie's on the desk for the Florida/Longwood game on SEC Network.

Why do they always do that? I’d give it a year at least.

The same as Alabama, Kentucky, Vanderbilt, and Ole Miss.
