Side note, I hate how ESPN changed the stats on the app. Just wasn’t necessary. Over engineering like Apple.

MTSU has a drug problem...



Cooper done drug them all over the court

 

[VolBall09]

Idk what Rick’s game plan was but it for dang sure wasn’t this lol

Hurst sighting!

 

[VolBall09]

Middle doing a lot of holding. Annoying it’s not called.

 

[th2421]

prawl is having a game.

Only 2 credited boards but she's been very active keeping a lot of balls in play.

 

[VolBall09]

16-0 run in the first and second quarters. I’ll take it.

 

[VolBall09]

Little gassed the last two minutes but I’ll allow it because it’s the best energy we’ve had all season.

 

[Voltopia]

48 to 16 at the half. You love to see it -- but also, you love to see it.

 

[Ladyvol777]

48-16. Hard to watch. I enjoy a closer game. As always go Lady Vol’s.

Looked like a pack of angry wolves sharing some fresh meat

 

[Vols14!]

[KnoxLikeUs]

Girl, not me

Blow them TF out. I hate middle.

Still reeling from Kellie losing to them her last season. Made me wanna puke.

Rabid I tell ya

Hurst has tape on her right (?) hand. Wonder if that's what has put her so far down on the bench. I kno Ow she missed her 3s, but I've seen some things I've liked out of her in the little time she's had. Of course, as Kaniya has shown tonight, hustle and production gets you minutes as well as production.

 

[Vols2015]

Great first half! Would like to see less threes since we’re doing so well everywhere else.

 

[Volfan2012]

The defense has been swarming and it has been total effort for the full 20 minutes. More impressed with the defense than the offense in this game even though we have 48 points. 5 of 19 from the three started out well then missed several in a row. The defense and rebounding has been overpowering in this one.

Methinks Coach Kim may have taken minor offense at Rick Insell's comments after last season's game about her system and decided to show him how it works! And, this is the first game this season that looks like the team has both accepted the system and is putting forth the effort to make it work, in my opinion.

Ive not commented on a game thread yet this season, but I have to say this is for sure the most energy we’ve shown in a game all season, and the relentlessness on the O-boards is something Kim has been preaching. They clearly had a much needed and great week of practice.

Can't take ponies to a horse race. Totally out maned . When a athletic team like the Vols are playing with this energy it's going be bad. Could be as bad as the first game if the 3s will start falling again.

Called for 9 personal fouls, but spread out across the roster: Zee alone has 2.

I think she’s very capable. Needs to get in a little better shape.

Coach Kim on the Spearman play how is that a foul?

Feels like our adjusted offense has not only created more open looks for us, but it's also put us in much better position to rebound the misses. There's been 14 missed threes, but its felt like quite a number of those became second chances, as we got 10 oRBs overall, so those misses don't hurt near as bad.
