Lady Vols vs Texas

[wbbfan]

Russell not having a good game as she's facing some size.

 

[Beemer]

I don't know what the hell has happened to Graves. When she was a freshman I thought she had the potential to become a very good player. I don't think that now.

 

[FairView]

29 - 24 at the half.
This game is awful, but I keep watching because I can't believe it.

 

[FairView]

Plus, I want to watch Tennessee lose.

Texas leading 29-24 at the half. Texas shooting 36% while Lady Vols are shooting 29% Texas still shooting 50% from the Free Throw line.

Better shot selection and make their free throws Texas has a double digit lead.

It's like a car wreck you just can't look away.

How can so many highschool superstars get to the next level and play such an ugly brand of basketball year after year???

(As if I didn't know)

The first half Tennessee played like a zircon in the rough (idea borrowed from Vol Nation).

 

[magic]

Higgs looks to be a talented and exciting young player for Longhorns.

Texas 36-26 with 7:15 left in the 3 quarter

 

[Kibitzer]

I feel bad for Holly. When she was promoted (to HC) I opined that she just inherited the worst HC job in America. Tough enough to replace a legend but made far worse coaching in Pat's long shadow. Add to that AD difficulties, retention of Pat's staff and an unforgiving fan base an the challenges have become nearly insurmountable. I wish her well but feel her leash has become very short.

36-26. Texas @6:42 in the 3rd.

 

[Blue Huskie]

Let the Deshields flopping exhibition begin.

 

[Wbbfan1]

Although Texas leads predicting they lose this game because of fouls they committed and missed Free Throws. 5 minutes left in 3rd QTR and Lady Vols already shooting Free Throws.

They're hitting from the perimeter though. TENN standing around a LOT on offense.

 

[BigBird]

I have seen very little so far that might suggest that either of these competing groups are actually teams.

Diamond keeping LV in it with the long ball. Texas 45-37

 

[wbbfan]

Another 3 from TX, 48-37

 

[Blue Huskie]

Texas is funny. Hitting threes and missing point blank layups. Maybe just shoot the threes?

 

[BigBird]

Free throwing can be taught. No, really, it can. Right?

 

[mrmojack]

Tenn was a 5.5 point favorite in this game.

Can I just say....Carolyn Peck annoys me.

 

[Blue Huskie]

She likes making excuses for TENN that's for sure.

 

[GG]

Yikes, I hope that Jones is okay.

She's complaining about the refs now - called a charge on TN and called a block on TN on the other end. Got pretty excited a bout the 'bad' charge call. Then later they had a little discussion about how they have a better angle the refs, replay, etc, and the refs are doing a good job after all. I got the feeling someone whispered in her ear and told her to knock it off.
