Tennessee has been in dogfights for 37-39.5 min in each of their three games. No wonder the fans here are emotional wrecks. If Tennessee had a routine low scoring win that was pretty over at the half, I'd be ecstatic.

Some of these fans have been like this win we have had big leads under Kellie! You can continue to defend it, but you know its true. With this talent they shouldn't have been up by just 10. I just find it funny the same excuses folks use for UConn, SC, Baylor (when Kim was there), Louisville, ND (with Muffet)are often not used for the Lady Vols and this is a Lady Vols board! Wish folks would really say what team they really cheer for instead of pretending to be Lady Vol fans!

Yeah, it would be nice to have a game we could sit back and enjoy without ever feeling tense at all. One of these days!

Just looking at the box score SC must be playing slow only 35 shots through 3 quarters and being out shot by 9 or so going to the 4th quarter. Good thing SC defense is elite.

Also Iowa shot 27 free throws in the 1st half of their game, with the other team committing 18. Being out shot 40 to 20, and still winning by 25 plus.

Quite a discrepancy in first half free throws attempted.
Iowa 27- Southern 6

Like I said, Carolina waits until the second half to crank it up. I don't know why, but I've seen them do it a lot. Tonight is the perfect example.

The overwhelming majority of posters here don't watch anything but the LV games to start with. It's no surprise that they don't comment on Baylor or ND or SC when they have ugly games because they're not watching them. Guarantee if you go to the Sicem or Boneyard during their game days, then you'll see the same b!tching and moaning you see here if their teams aren't playing well even if they have a lead wire to wire. The BY is still complaining about Arkansas dropping 80 on them even though UConn won by 15.

The top 6 teams in this conference are good. I have Ark 6th and nobody wants to play them, they are dangerous on many nights.

SC, GA, Tenn (at full strength), TAMU, UK, and Ark are my "locks" for the tournament. MSST, LSU and Ole Miss are my dark horses. Beyond that, it's bleak...

UGA has a few decent games coming up with Notre Dame, Ga Tech, Marquette and Texas Tech. Little tougher non-con than they have had in years past. Will be interested to see how they fare. Notre Dame looks better this season.

One elite team, a handful of "good" teams, and the bottom third or so is pretty bad. From Tennessee's perspective, it's great timing for the SEC to have a down season...

Amazing how quiet some of you are with SC only scoring 27 in the first half against Clemson. With all that talent they shouldn't be allowed to score only 27 points in a half? At least that's how some of you act around here concerning our team.

This aged well...

Dawn may actually have an issue of playing too many players this season. She’s going to try to get minutes for 8 or 9 and I’m not sure it’s possible without damaging their chemistry. Some of the stars are not going to see near the numbers they did a season or two ago.

Super talented group of young women but I’m curious to see how the dynamic develops. Cooke has not been aggressive at all, very strange for her.

I’m not convinced Henderson will ever be the answer at the point. 2 assists and 4 turns in the first half. At her diminutive size she has to take care of the ball better or she’s not bringing much.

Geez, you'd never know learning from you that Henderson led the SEC in total assists and assists per game last season in her first year as a starting PG......

SC vs MooU ( aka the Udder University ) produced the highest attendance for WBB so far this year at 13,363. We should all be proud of the

rising interest in WBB.
