Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2024-25

MSU is putting it on MIZZOU so far. Blackwell in particular has not been effective. Not able to rebound like she was against the smaller teams they have played. 3 boards in the first half and 4 points. No fouls for her though which is a bonus as she has a history of foul trouble.

That 16-0 MoSt run didn't help. Unimpressed with the Tigers thus far.

 

[VolBall09]

MSU just kicking their butt now. Normally this game is a little more competitive. Honestly surprised at the 30 point deficit.

OU upsets #16 BYU 99-91 in OT. OU will move into the rankings next week at 9-1. They’re looking good, just need a teeny bit of defense.

OU at home shot 36 FT’s to BYU 12. BYU is a very aggressive team on offense yet shot just 12 FT’s. Looked like some home cooking.

Hard to tell. Wasn’t able to watch. OU does run more of a drive and kick offense. They are very aggressive to the rim and from 3.

Yes I could not watch either. But I have watched BYU play several times and they are a strong quick team. They attack and play transition ball so my guess it was a little home partiality.

I thought Missouri State's program was on the verge of crumbling as the remnants of Kellie fade...?

UConn won 4 out of 5 championships from 1999-2004. Then didn't win for 4 years.

They went Sweet Sixteen, Elite Eight, Elite Eight and Final Four.

Then they won four straight during the Stewart years.

Now they haven't won in four years but they went to the final four every time.

He keeps recruiting at the highest level. I wouldn't count on that championship drought lasting.

All facts except for the last sentence.

That final four fact probably wouldn’t be true had not covid ended that ncaa tourney that year. Baylor , SC, Oregon and MD were all better including Stanford .

 

[Darth_Vol]

Putting basketball aside for a moment, I sincerely hope everyone here is ok after the storms last night...

UConn was all Westbrook first quarter against UCLA.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

GO UCLA!

 

[Rickster]

UConn may go down again today especially if the game is close.

 

[LadyVol1908]

UCLA up 11 over UCONN! Yikes! Without Westbrook, it’ll be even worse! She’s saving their ass right now!

 

[chuckiepoo]

Huskies call time-out. Down 11, 28-17, 5:30 left in the first half.

 

[Rickster]

Halfway through the 2nd quarter and UConn has scored 17 points.

 

[Volfan2012]

UConn throwing bricks at the basket. These were all former highly ranked five star players. Really surprised that they can't make a layup and a five foot shot.

 

[chuckiepoo]

Williams has missed her last 12 shots

Unfortunately we don't do a great job at that either. UConn is battling the same demons we are.

 

[chuckiepoo]

This game is on ABC

 

[Volfan2012]

UCLA lost to Mid-Majors Kent State and South Dakota State.

 

[Volfan2012]

Unfortunately we don't do a great job at that either. UConn is battling the same demons we are.

True but other than Horston we don't have anyone that was ranked in the top 40 of their class.

 

[LadyOrange]

True but other than Horston we don't have anyone that was ranked in the top 40 of their class.

And yet we are a #9 team.

 

[Volfan2012]

They chopped it down to two points. Still be surprised if UCLA wins, but they are making it a game.

 

[creekdipper]

And yet we are a #9 team.

Yeah, but if Kellie could recruit, we'd be #8.

 

[VolBalls33]

UCLA also had no FT attempts and UCONN has TWO total fouls. Gimme a break.
