Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2024-25

Alabama had 29 TO answer still won by 15. UK doesn't have a bench and struggled to beat Belmont with all 5 starters in double figures. Polls don't matter all that much, but think UT deserves to be ranked higher than UK. Will Bama and Vandy enter the top 25 come Monday?

One would think that beating a 2-loss team, whose largest previous deficit was 11 points to the #6 team in the country, by 25 points on a neutral court ought to rank higher than beating a 5-5 team by 6 points on your home court. But, as we know, the only thing that counts is winning, so Kentucky will continue to be ranked ahead of the Lady Vols.

after Amoore's success against the Lvols when it mattered, two years in a row, the difference.
 
I’m nervous for the UConn/U$C game tomorrow. Which version of the Huskies will show up? Azzi Fudd may play in the game tomorrow. UConn/Geno being coy for now. Personally if she’s cleared and ready I can see it happening (not as a starter, but off the bench). You can’t just store players away for a rainy day, especially if she could provide a necessary spark — just cross your fingers and roll the dice (carefully). Well, I guess we will see …

Not basketball related but I will be quietly rooting for TN tomorrow in the CFP. Never fear, I don’t want to see y’all win the title ( ;) ;) ), I just want to see tOSU get bounced in the first round. Go Vols! 😂

I will be surprised if Tennessee wins tomorrow. Yes, they've won lots of games this season, but I never really felt like they were any kind of championship material. They're pretty good, but not great, IMO.
 
This is why I’m glad Kara wasn’t on our list. Her teams pull total disappearing acts offensively way too often.

Almost halftime and they only have 12 points on the board. Sheesh.
Kara like it or not is going to get praised anyway for going on the road to play South Florida.
 
everyone is so impressed with Fournier and I’m just not so far. I think she’ll be a good player but she has terrible body control for as athletic as she is.
 
Duke fouling the crap out to USF to get back in it. There is a difference between aggressive play and outright fouling. Bad officiating led to that frustration. Duke player had her arms around USF players arm with the ball. Should have been a reach/foul not a jump. Then she pulls the girl down and now they’re reviewing the usf player for moving her arm because Kara cried.
 
UT should jump Duke if they lose with 3 losses. Possibly UK. And Michigan State lost as well. Likely top 15 in both polls!! And it feels good being the only University undefeated in both men and women's basketball. GBO!!

Officials doing everything they can get Duke back in the game. Totally bogus call. Didn’t call the foul on the floor and then upgraded a nothing burger arm flail.

Duke going to come back and win but USF has been hosed but the officials on their own floor. Duke holding like crazy and it hasn’t been called once. Especially on rebounds and screens.
