Missouri @ Tennessee (10) - 1/06/19

[UCBaller2012]

Mizzou getting killed on the o boards.

 

[eebmg]

Mizzou deserves to lose.

 

[HuskyNan]

I’m not sure if this is a barn burner or a

 

[Beemer]

Too bad both schools can't lose

 

[HuskyNan]

The Tenn kid traveled before the shot

 

[eebmg]

Sophie misses 1 of 2. TN can still pull this out.

 

[Beemer]

Missouri wins

 

[eebmg]

TN loses. No drama on the hand shake line.

 

[PAHuskeyFan]

More movement in the rankings coming up.

TN loses. No drama on the hand shake line.

Lol yes there was! Looks like at the end someone on Tenn didn’t high five Sophie so she went back and made her lol then some of the Tenn players started yelling at Sophie.

Good eyes. A nice little heart warmer.

No I’ve seen it before. It amazes me Holly still has a job

So unlike you

 

[HuskyNan]

So unlike you

Not at all, I’ve said something similar before. Holly Warlick is genuinely a nice person and is, apparently, an excellent associate head coach. But as the Head Coach, she has failed to develop her players, devise an effective offensive scheme (she’s still using PHS’s scheme from decades ago, one PHS herself had moved on from), and has failed to get her teams to play with a sense of urgency every single game.

Deb Antonelli claiming Cunningham was the only 50-40-80 shooter in all of D1womens basketball last season. Meanwhile, both Samuelson and Nurse shot 50-40-80 last season.....

Debbie Antonelli has some kind of love for Cunningham. I don't know what it is, but she cannot stop talking about her when she calls a game.

 

[Plebe]

This is a big win for Missouri. They needed this because their season has been disappointing so far.

I see in the box score that Meme Jackson was 0 for 9 and finished with only 2 points. Westbrook had 16 but it came on 5 of 19 shooting.

 

[Ron and Vida]

Gotta be careful in heat of the moment.
Cunningham brings out the worst in me but she plays 100% for 40 minutes on offense and defense and is a TN killer so...........

Did you see this on TV?? If so I'll have to go back and watch it.

This one surprises me. Beginning to think UK and SC may be the biggest challengers to the Bulldogs.

Yup! It was on TV.

Missouri is 13-3. We’re they expected to be better? Honest question

I think she has a bit of Dee in her. I’d take her on my team any day.

Whoever the adult woman was on end of bench put her hand down. Sophie doesn’t take crap from anyone and went back and confronted her. I love it. Have some class and shake hands. No surprise someone on the Tennessee payroll acted like this though.

The Lady Vols lose to an unranked team at home. Someone please check with Margo for her post game comments.

Quick check of roster shows she’s Holly’s assistant. Not assistant coach. Actual assistant. Makes more sense.

I think it's just that they have been pretty average against the better teams on their schedule so far. 2-3 vs Top 60 kinda teams. They started the season ranked and fell out.

 

[Shades]

Missouri hadn’t beaten a Top 10 club on the road since 2001.

 

[bballnut90]

Not a major interaction but it will definitely add fuel to the fire if these teams meet again.

Sophie Cunningham is no doubt a great player and plays with a ton of toughness and confidence, but she puts other players in danger as she regularly throws elbows (intential or not) and racks up flagrant or unsportsmanlike fouls more frequently than anyone else I've seen.
