Kentucky-Tennessee (merged thread)

[Zorro]

I make it KY by 8.

 

[Rocket009]

High scoring SEC game (over 100 points combined) -- 62 - 54 KY

Tennessee is much better when Cooper is hitting her 3...It started the last game, where she was the difference
Earlier, she wasn't hitting the side of a barn...She just charged, but looking better,

Kentucky has gotten most of their limited points on turnovers, just got a three.

16-14 K...competitive game

On ESPN2

 

[msf22b]

Cooper again

 

[msf22b]

Tennessee has more talent than K...more talent than a lot of teams.
Finally, some of it is emerging.
The inside game is still pathetic considering their size, boards too
But a hot three-point shooter can open things up.

 

[msf22b]

Cooper again

 

[Rocket009]

Kentucky look slow. I expected them to be quicker, move the ball quicker, and attack more.

 

[msf22b]

Tennessee by 5, playing decently; Graves from 15; before...good pass inside to Russell
Spaces opening up as anticipated because outside game is working.
Watch out...
This team is figuring out how to play.
It's not as hard as they were making it.

Tennessee actually hitting jump shots. Doesn't seem super sustainable.

Cooper had about the worst brick I've ever seen against ND. Today she is swishing stepbacks. Funny old game.

Ball movement is still not great for Tenn but their isos are working more.

 

[msf22b]

Why does Holly do her subs
She's got Cooper and De Shields on the bench
no one wants to shoot

Cooper started hitting last game...she was a Mac All-american if I recall.
Was playing terribly
Seems to have had an epiphany.
Can't be a big surprise

Was actually co-MVP (with Marina Mabrey) of the McDonald's game. Not surprised she can play well. Just strange how quick the switch has flipped.

Doesn't seem much interest...Are folks interested only when UTenn plays like... the oriental expression I am not permitted to write...even with my Chinese wife's permission.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Lots of Tuck talk on the halftime show.

 

[bags27]

everyone see that short film of Mitchell's half time speech? "Tennessee's not even playing hard"....oooh

 

[CocoHusky]

Lots of Tuck talk on the halftime show.

There was lot's of talk about Tuck but Karl Ravech just took a shot at UCONN at the end: "9 College women's players of the week named so far NONE FROM UCONN" Ravy let me explain something to you and your toupee: UCONN is working on POY not player of the week. Where is Kevin Negandhi? Kevin wouldn't take shots like that and he is from Philly.

He's right they aren't. Amazing KY isn't up with all the TENN turnovers.They just can't score.

 

[JordyG]

UT hit some early outside shots. We'll see if that continues. KY's offense seems like most SEC teams. That is, dribbledribbledribble, maybe pass, dribbledribble shoot.

That's not a shot -that's a complement to the team's balance!

 

[Orangutan]

Tennessee starting to display something like passing and offense.

The first signs of life from Deshields and Doris is singing her praises.

I really can't stand Matthew Mitchell. He's such a cry baby. I can't wait to hear how much he whines when Kentucky gets placed in the same region with UCONN again.

 

[Orangutan]

And....there's the typical Tennessee swoon.

 

[xHunt3r]

Even-thought they are ahead at the moment, I can't see Tenseness winning... they are shooting way above their usually percentages.... they're going to stop making shots at some point.

 

[msf22b]

The most talented player on the floor, took over for a few minutes and UK is ahead
Game not over...not by a longshot

He'll just hit us with that 40 minutes of dread thing again.
