Game Thread: #23/25 LADY VOLS VS. #8/8 MISSISSIPPI STATE

[pasadenavol]

Totally disagree. Last few teams would lose this by 30 without their best player

You may want to rethink this comment... 17 point loss isn't great

Qtr 1 = 21 pts
Qtr 2 = 9 pts
Qtr 3= 10 pts
Qtr 4 = 15 pts

we seem to come out and have energy on offense but it continuously dwells as the game goes on. This has been a trend all season as well along with turnovers.

Lady Vols lose 55-72. Terrible.

Did anyone find where Key is?

6'6 and zero rebounds? Yemiyah Morris stole her lunch tonight

Burrell needs to start with Davis instead of Horston. You get points and hustle with Burrell instead of turnovers with Horston. Horston is not a point guard never will be. She is playing out of position. Harper needs to realize that. We also don't have a dominant post player yet. Key may be with weight room a lot of work in the off season.

As bad as this game was, without Davis, it should’ve been a lot worse. These girls need a good break, they need to regroup and find out what’s going on.

They need to practice , there is not 1 thing this team does well

 

[Rockytoprowdy]

They may fall out now but this team is only ranked in the top 25 because of the name on the front of the jerseys. Not because they’re worthy.

Now comes the We would have won with Davis posts.

Uhm... turn the ball over

 

[TN1111]

I was hoping Phil would have hired Vic away from Miss St

Just like Orgeron...Harper can do the right thing and get someone on staff that can improve the offense. Question is will she.

 

[tnvols72]

Well, we're up to 22 TO's. Same old, same old. Can’t win games like that.

18 points off those turnovers

Post development in this team is non-existent.

Emily is dressed...

She had white shorts on and a black t shirt

 

[Putbacks]

This team has yet to prove that it’s any better with Rennia Davis. Stop with the excuses.

Tennessee is one of the less imposing 17-5 teams I've seen in recent memory.

 

[sport3500]

This was going to be a tough season in the SEC but with 17 wins so far, Tennessee has a good chance to go to the NCAA Tournament.

Our half court defense is good. It’s everything else that’s bad.

Stats to make one weep:
LV fouls 21
LV turnovers 22

LV field goals 21

That and everybody ranked behind them kept losing too. Who cares if we are ranked we don’t deserve it. I think Coach Harper would tell you that too.

Positive Rae Burrell played out of her mind and I still feel like this team can make some things happen (that are positive)

I don’t care if they are three star HARD WORKING PLAYERS get them here and sit some of these others on the bench!

When its all said and done , it goes back to coaching.

The head coach should own the offense. I'm not sure if your even serious...

Didn't say it was. Said last few teams would have lost by 30, and I stand by that.

Actually, 17 is about what I expected when I heard Davis was out.

We are just fragile. Capable, but fragile. We played great first quarter, but once we get off track, which we did when Horston started making t.o.s in the second quarter and our offense went stagnet, we just struggle to get back on, even with a full hand to play.

Horston doesn't start next game. Rae starts instead.

Isn't John the low post coach?

 

[VolBall09]

If we have 20+ turnovers in the A&M game I’m probably done for the season. I can’t take it anymore.

 

[tnvols72]

Our half court defense is good. It’s everything else that’s bad.

The were playing zone and State was still getting into the paint with ease and getting easy shots.
