BTW: A LadyVol scouting opportunity tonight

[cancontent]

The defensive matchups is not what im referencing. More so 2 best players/scorers versus OSU's two best scorers/players. Tennessee has more of a supporting cast in case those 2 dont show up . Ohio state HAS to have Sheldon / Miksell show up tonight to even have a chance. Braxton Miller won't be the guard in charge of scoring this year so Miksell being a 10 year senior will need to come to play tonight consistently .

Looks like the defensive match ups were a bigger factor.

Horston/Powell were a deadlier combo for Tennessee than Horston/Jackson. Didn't see that coming.

Interesting how it played out in this crazy game.

That'd be a nifty 0.34 Assist/TO ratio for TN.

I know TN had early foul trouble, but some of the lineups they had on the floor was confusing. TN Ball Security grade = F+ TN Offensive Flow = C-

3 Assists at end of game garbage time.

Jackson looked shocked. Literally. I have a feeling that this is not the offense TN went over the past few months.

Where are the freshman Pissott and Stripllin? Were there some injuries?

Striplin is a sophomore. Didn't have a lot of playing time last season. Not sure what her role will be this year.

Not sure about Pissot's situation.

 

[LwrcasefaN]

OSU point guard Green was impressive. Steady. Very solid handles in traffic.

Pissott was in concussion protocol or something like that. Striplin is not good enough right now to be on court over the players that were seeing the court

 

[UConnCat]

Based on what Harper said recently it sounds like Pissot is at the end of a very long bench. More experienced players ahead of her.

 

[Gamecockfan77]

I just didn't see Tennessee as belonging in that top tier coming in and they sure didn't change my mind tonight.

Maybe they grow into it.

I could see them beating SCar in Knoxville or a Greenville though. Probably not twice though.

I think the depth is overstated but we'll see.

The OSU big (MIKULASIKOVA) was super impressive to me. We know Mikesell and Sheldon are the real deal but when she is on OSU will be a lot to deal with.

Maybe the Tennessee fans should spend less energy trolling Kim Mulkey on social media and more of it worrying about turnovers

I counted 16 players on the TN roster. Is that even possible?

I thought she was underrated last year. Lacked experience but was a very steadying presence in the interior (where OSU was and is overall weakest).

Yes. One is a walk-on.

Harper played 11 tonight. Wynn, PIssot, Rennie and Striplin did not play.

 

[LwrcasefaN]

This is one of those game films that you don't show your team. It will do more harm than good.

Maybe they should have.

Well they need to show the ugly truth because there are still some teams on that schedule that like to press you up and down the court. Anyone remember the Florida and Auburn games last year? Non stop in your face all 60 minutes.

Teams will obviously look to use this more against them now (maybe not as extensively as Ohio State but it will be used).

Crazy thing was there was one point where they had 3 guards on the floor and were still coughing it up. I would say 4, but Darby doesn't really handle the ball.

Go over the press for sure but show another game. OR...just show the first half. lol There was so much that was wrong in this game it might overwhelm the players. It's like a nightmare you want to forget.

One of your more questionable takes.

Wow. The way Tennessee lost that game was a total embarrassment. There were some pretty questionable coaching decisions in the 3rd by Coach Harper. She could have called a timeout to stop the bleeding but chose not to and some of those lineups were completely awful against the press.

 

[rvwsleep]

With the depth Tennessee has. I expect them to press full court until OSU drops.

Prescient. How did you know that OSU would press until Tennessee drops ?

As much as I want to dunk on the Vols, I do give credit to Kellie Harper for scheduling a meaningful and challenging road game for the season opener. Yesterday my eyes glazed over seeing so many dull mismatches and blowouts.

Okay, back to dunking now ...

This meme was of course inspired by a recent football game, but it's such a classic that it merits dissemination here — just imagine an "O" in lieu of the "G"

 

[GoCardinal]

Ahhh yes, another SEC team getting embarrassed by Ohio State. Can’t say I’m surprised. Sheldon was just dominant defensively and Mikesell really turned it on. Overall, really fun showing from OSU.
