NCAA Tournament Game Thread: (3) Lady Vols vs. (6) Michigan

[Memvol44]

Why not wait for Key to get down court for offensive rebounding ? No we are just jacking crap up and no one under the basket and Salary what was that?

Salary is in over her head.

We look pitiful! waiting for the refs to bail us out! Let me tell y’all something losing is as just as big story for the NCAA then us winning.

Rennia needs to stop pressing and Rae needs to wake up! Luckily we are only down by 9 but dang ladies you gotta flip that SWITCH and flip it NOW!!

 

[JCP201]

I'm no basketball expert, and Walker is great at getting the ball etc, but we have Davis, KK, Burrell and Key. I wish she wouldn't shoot so much.

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

If the referees aren't going to call fouls, you need to start mugging the Michigan girls every trip down. That being said, Tennessee seems to play better in the second half so this nine-point deficit doesn't feel insurmountable.

 

[T.J.]

Tennessee

Kellie needs to rip them a new one at the half. Play like a darn team. The only positive I have rn is TK.

 

[Voluble2]

You know, I am really tired of every team we play wanting the win more than us.

They just handed us our asses and they aren't even half as talented.

19 pts in a half is just embarrassing. And it is all because we shrink away from contact and can't play physical. Sure the refs suck, but they haven't called enough fouls for it to matter.

We need to knock them on their asses instead of letting them knock us on ours.

I know one thing, Rennia and Rae best wake up. 2 more half’s of play like this, and they’re going home.

two more halfs? Can we get a mulligan on the the last one?

 

[Volfan2012]

Defense was ok give up 28 but 25 percent from the field is just not going to get it done.

Barnes and Kellie drinking from same fountain:

I’ll be honest, I don’t watch a lot of this unathletic bball, but it’s tourney time. UT could not make it easier on Michigan’s defense. They don’t have an offense. They don’t move, and they don’t high post screen. Pretty bad.

 

[Border Vol]

please get that undertaker off my TV screen.

Does he have an orange colored casket?

 

[djtee]

I stand by what i have said all year long Walker is a liability. Go out and get Chelsie Hall it is what it is.

 

[glv98]

Okey dokey, time for KJH to flip the magical halftime switch. Surely we will shoot better, and I think that's all it would take. In spite of what the announcers and ole Andy are saying, I don't think its Michigan's D. We just can't hit sh*t.

I meant quarters..

 

[stlvolsfan]

Come on Re! Don’t go out like this.

 

[travis929]

Lobo noting how physical it's been and refs letting them play.

 

[Hallie]

We watching men's game over .. end of half tells all .. Michigan players more pep .. excited to play .. they run to dressing room .. Davis for TN walking to dressing room . Too many head cases on that team .. they got their bottom lip down and their dobber down .. I can tell u now they are done .

Wayyyyyy in over her head!

the girls have an offense, just not today

Nothing from Re. Hope she hasn't checked out!!!!

 

[southerngirl]

If we don't start playing with some urgency, we will be going home. I hate to see it........Hope we can can find our rhythm in the second half.

 

[vavolfan6]

Refs allowing constant hacking and reaching from Michigan. Hard to get any flow or inside game when this is the case

 

[sechamp2012]

Michigan is really good on D & they got their kind of officials that just let them play physical without calling fouls. Something got to change .

 

[SGMVols]

Kellie better hammer the transfer portal for scorers or we will be bad next year without Rennia

 

[Coffy73]

God, this Tenn. team is sloppy, sloppy, sloppy! If they could just settle down, that'd be great! They're playing too frantically, but they're not behind by much. Just don't come out and get in a bigger hole; This team is not great playing from behind. After all these years, we still don't have a true leader on the court, Davis sure isn't it! Here's hoping for a better second half ladies!
