[37620VOL]

Puckett missed layup badly

Fouled badly

 

[Volfaninfl2]

3 by Walker!

They better be ontheir Game Monday Iowa State isn't a gimme they won Big 12 Tourney great three point shooting team

 

[OJJ]

It's stupid turnovers like that they kill momentum

 

[volbound1700]

Well we definitely are far more talented than SLU but we are playing very sloppy on both sides right now which is keeping it relatively close.

 

[Vols2015]

We aren’t boxing out like we need to be, and that’s why St. Louis is keeping it close

 

[Vols2015]

Jackson another layup

 

[OJJ]

Just keep going iso like that wow

 

[turbovol]

We're rather lazy defensively---a lot of 3/4 defense by Horston, Jackson others. Not blocking out....It probably won't hurt
us today, but.....

 

[Ovol]

Poor Puckett has went backwards this year.

 

[VolBall09]

Offense looks good but not loving the uninspired defense and rebounding.

 

[OJJ]

My god

 

[OJJ]

Just a garbage shot

 

[zaqhhh]

Offensively I’m very impressed by our guards ability to handle the on ball pressure (which has been good by SLU).

Defensively we look too slow and passive as usual

 

[OJJ]

We should be up 14

 

[djtee]

Jackson need to start rebounding STL is a small team

 

[turbovol]

Just keep going iso like that wow

Iso essentially is our offense....

 

[Vols2015]

20-15 TN up after 1 quarter. St Louis makes 3 at buzzer. Missed layups, giving up offensive rebounds, defensive breakdowns and turnovers the reason the game is close right now.

 

[37620VOL]

Seemed like a really fast first qtr

 

[Volstylexx]

Sarah “defensive liability” Puckett. I don’t know if we’ve had a player regress more in one year than her.

 

[Rons1989]

Im not upset about this should be a blowout by halftime tho

 

[Volfaninfl2]

We’re going to have to “bring it” this whole game.

 

[VolBall09]

As per usual what should have been a double digit lead at the quarter shaved to 5 thanks to lazy defense and not taking the last shot.

 

[Ovol]

Playing defense like they are herding cattle.
