ТN vs Texas A&M at 7 pm (EST)

[Rocket009]

LOL, Dunbar shoots a three but it went in so I guess it’s ok

I guess they are listening more this year :0

 

[HuskyNan]

Tenn is up 35-33. I don’t understand why Mercedes Russell isn’t averaging 20 points. She still has a huge upside. Maybe her pro coach can bring it out of her

 

[HuskyNan]

Tenn is still shooting threes despite Warlick’s instructions.

A&M has suddenly forgotten how to shoot. It’s 35-34 Tenn and Evina Westbrook will be shooting FTs for the LVs

 

[HuskyNan]

Its 36-34 Tennessee at the half.

Warlick wants her team to rebound better, calls the players soft, wants them to go to the basket more

 

[sivad40]

Tennessee freshmen guards are quick to take it to the basket on a fast break whether they have the numbers or not.

 

[HuskyNan]

The Hillsman-Russell matchup is worth the price of admission. These two are working their butts off

 

[HuskyNan]

This half has been a much better effort by both teams. A&M is all over Nared so she’s only effective in fits and starts

I like Chennedy’s Carters game but she needs some discipline

42-41 A&M in this back and forth game

 

[MilfordHusky]

It’s 32-26 A&M. Warlock told the team not to shoot threes, to get the ball into the paint, wise advice

I love the autocorrect to Warlock.

 

[HuskyNan]

A&M getting no garbage points sine Tenn is on a mission to rebound. They can’t stop Carter, though. Yet Tenn is up 48-44on some nice play by Nared. The kid should/could be a superstar in a different system

 

[HuskyNan]

Weird side note -I love Howard’s hair but wonder if it ever gets in her way

Still 48-44 LVs

 

[HuskyNan]

Argh, Rocky Top. If that song gets stuck in my head, I’m calling the SEC network president every five seconds until it stops

 

[HuskyNan]

Hillsman has been terrific, closes the gap to two 50-48 but Russell is playing hard too. She can’t create her own shot, though many centers can’t

 

[HuskyNan]

Carter is electrifying. She’ll be scary as an upperclassmen. She drew an important foul on Russell, sending her to the bench.

Game tightens to 50-49

 

[HuskyNan]

Much smarter play by both team, both feeding the post. Too bad about Russels fouls as her sub is no match for Hillsman

Now 54-52 Aggies with Russell on the bench

 

[HuskyNan]

Now 56-52 and Holly calls a time out.

 

[HuskyNan]

Ah, there’s Jamie Nared with a three.

 

[HuskyNan]

Russell is back in but is now cautious on defense, which could be a problem for the LVs.

A&M up by three at end of third quarter

 

[eebmg]

Carter is an incredible player. I think she could be a NPOY in future is she learns the subtleties of the game.

 

[HuskyNan]

I think whoever shoots the ball last before the final whistle will win. It’s a back and forth game.

 

[Blue Huskie]

Carter is an incredible player. I think she could be a NPOY in future is she learns the subtleties of the game.

Her court vision is next level

 

[HuskyNan]

Tenn seems flustered, is rushing shots and not getting back on D. Aggies now up 67-62

 

[HuskyNan]

I’m calling it - Chennedy Carter will be freshman POY

 

[HuskyNan]

Nared is having a quietly effective game but needs to take over more. She has all the tools

Aggies up 69-64 only 5:42 left

 

[HuskyNan]

Hmmm, maybe Carter should let a teammate shoot. hillsman seems like a good candidate

 

[HuskyNan]

Carter trying to win the game by herself, missing shots out of fatigue.

Is it too late to take back my prediction about her?

It’s now a one point game
