Game Thread: Lady Vols v Belmont, Home, Thurs. Nov 13th, 7PM, SEC Network

i’m not upset. belmont plays us well every year. they’re a solid mid major. they played OK close the entire game until the imploded in the fourth. we also played horrible, our offense was anemic. love the fight. love this team. kim im sorry for what i said earlier, i still love you!!
The reason it was close was the way we played. they didn't do anything to stop us we did that ourselves. Glad we won we have a lot of work to do before Middle Tennessee.
 
Boards saved our behind and TBH I love to see it. When you can’t rely on anything else you should be able to rely on your rebounding. Ugly as it is Pat would have liked that lol.

We all know the saying…

‘Offense sells tickets, defense wins games, but rebounding wins championships.’
 
Also, I am team, ‘hair extensions are bad luck’ FWIW.

I think she should go back to the long bob. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
The main thing you like about Boyd is the way she can defend. The fact that she brought the offense when we needed it so badly was a huge surprise. She is the best defender on the team.
agreed. she really got lucky with her threes. she is not a three point shooter, but hell she hit em when it counted the most. she needs to play more.

In the half court without a doubt. She moves her feet and really makes the ball handler uncomfortable. She made the most of her minutes tonight. Definitely the energy player of the game with her two threes and two huge oboards down the stretch.
 
Overanalyzing needs to stop. It’s one game.
Middle Tennessee State is not beating this Tennessee team.
And why speculate about Latham? She is out tonight. Has nothing to do with changing a system based on one player missing a game.
Focus on what matters. A win.

I have been disappointed of the play of our bigs so far this year.They are not rebounding , playing good defense and not hitting shots in the paint
Not taking advantage of the bigs .Need some set plays with some screens to get the ball in the hands of the bigs down low .Our bigs are more comfortable shooting 3's than being roughed up down low
 
I'll be interested to see just how similar this game's statsheet looks to Belmont's matchup with Oklahoma.
Coincidence?

Looks like Belmont only won quarter two and three by 6 against them and they won those quarter by 17 against us. Ace didn't score 14 points in that game. She scored 7 just 1 of 5 from three

Kim has completely changed the way she coached from a year ago. We were one - two passes and a shot going up last year and crashing the offensive glass. That is why we were one of the best in offensive rebounding teams in the country and also a leader in shots taken. It looks like the Hoosier 5 pass rule has been implemented. There is nothing special or different about this offense than any other medicore teams offense in the SEC. Maybe she feels she can't win with the system she ran at the D-2 level and is attempting to run a more mainstream offense? 4th game in a row and exactly the same. This is Tess, Jewel and Sara's pace.
Without tess and jewels shooting skills
