Massey Ratings - College Basketball Women's : NCAA D1 Ratings
Massey moves Texas up to number two in the nation and Arizona to number three. They drop Stanford to five and UConn to sixth. They are now making Texas a seven point favorite in our game which I can agree with considering our offensive woes.
I always feel good about the home court and think we can play within a few points of anybody. We were able to do that last season and hope we can do it again this season.Only 7? It's a compliment, IMO, that Massey calculates their #2 team in the country is only 7 points better than Tennessee.
If the Lady Vols can break the mental barrier that has them missing too many makable shots AND continues to play good D, they very well could score a huge upset Saturday. I honestly do expect the floodgates to open soon, and then suddenly people will be wondering what in the world happened that they are now shooting a higher percentage. I have faith they'll relax and the shots will start falling once one or two people break through.
Making shots is contagious, and soon our Lady Vols are going to come down with a glorious case of Nothing But Nylon Flu.I've officially put this out into the universe now, so it's gonna happen, people.

I second your comments. Perhaps, the LVs will come down with "Nothing But Nylon Flu" in the upcoming Texas game. GBO.Only 7? It's a compliment, IMO, that Massey calculates their #2 team in the country is only 7 points better than Tennessee.

I watched the Texas-SE Missouri St. game today. Texas plays a lot of underclassmen. They had the same problem this game that we have in general, they can't make layups at a respectable rate. Texas was under 50% on layups and they took a lot of them.Only 7? It's a compliment, IMO, that Massey calculates their #2 team in the country is only 7 points better than Tennessee.

They have 4 legit players off the bench, and starting 5 is productive at each spot. Vic S is a great coach, expect their best shot when you play them, he is aware they are coming to the SEC and he will put his best foot fwd vs UT.I watched the Texas-SE Missouri St. game today.

Texas was 50% from the floor and 3/10 from deep, so they were 53% from 2pt line.I watched the Texas-SE Missouri St. game today. Texas plays a lot of underclassmen.
