Ohio state will press and try to force turnovers like Louisville was able to do in their sweet 16 game. Key may not even be a factor, she certainly was ineffective against Louisville and this Ohio State team is just as good as that Louisville team was last year. Let’s see if Tennessee can hold on to the ball and not make silly mistakes.
Well this was prophetic. I tip my hat to you, sir or madam!

Oh Oh. Are TN's dropsies catching? Not a good stretch closing out

If you’re going to go down to Ohio State despite a massive size advantage you’d prefer it to be because Mikesell and Sheldon shot the lights out.

Didn’t really happen and yet this wasn’t particularly competitive after 25 minutes.

Tennessee has as much talent as a team could hope for but the cohesion and fundamentals have a ways to go.

TN is super talented but turnovers have plagued them for years and it appears that issue isn't close to being fixed. If they don't clean that up, its going to be rough going this year at times no matter the talent.

I put this more on Harper, the talent and depth is there. No adjustments whatsoever.

Harper won’t win COY coaching like this.

29 Turnovers. At one point, they had more turnovers in the third quarter than shot attempts. Ohio State was putting pressure on, but I didn't think it was that onerous. Whew.

At one point, they had like 5 possessions in a row where they couldn't get the ball past mid-court under the time limit. I've seen sloppy games but that period was super bad.

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.

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-

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
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).
