Reminder... Tenn at Rutgers tonight

When RU is scoring off its defense, rather than having to run offense, it's much easier on the eyes.

Nicely done, Scarlet Knights.

Yeah, it seems like the LVs should have someone who can guard Sykes, but they don't really.

This is the worst defensive team TN has had in a long time and I'm talking about this senior class. Not a very good rebounding team either.
 
Has RU upped their defensive pressure or are these LV turnovers self-inflicted?
 
Did anyone scout Tennessee? How could they leave Spani that wide open?
 
Cripes, you guys let me root for Rutgers again. Where's my stick?

The message on the Summitt is REBOUND, REBOUND!!!!
 
...and LVs take the lead back. Rutgers got lethargic and stopped playing with urgency. That and-1 will work, though.
 
My fault. I just joined the game to see Tennessee take the lead. I'll go back to playing Poppit! Sprint now..
 
This has turned out to be an interesting game! Go RU!

Manning headed to the locker room. Didn't look serious, but can't ever be sure with knee injuries (which it appeared to be).
 
Any time Rutgers gets a three point lead, they play like they're up 15 with three minutes to go. It's bizarre.
 
Glory Johnson has not developed very much in her time with the LV's. She is really a poor offensive player, considering how athletic she is.

100% agree. Diamond DeShields should be taking notice.

New definition of offense - run and chuck, steal and chuck, turnover and chuck.
 
Tennessee has a one point lead, but this game is getting physical and ugly. In other words, this looks more and more like a Rutgers game.
 
Why do Ward and Peck keep using the word "great" to describe this game? I don't think they're watching the same game I am.
 
On a side note, watching this game makes it ever more clear how the 'carry' has become more and more accepted, and never called. Some of our girls do it, too (and I often point this out) but I don't remember seeing a game where so many egregious carries are allowed to masquerade as legal dribbles.
 
It's over. LV's hit threes late and RU misses everything.

They are the worst pair of announcers IMO. Not even close.

Indeed. Competitive? Yes. Great? Not so much.

Rutgers has no heart. They could easily have beaten Miami and Tennessee, but they can't seal the deal late in games. I stand by my prediction that UConn will bury the Scarlet Knights in Hartford.
 
If RU can't score from its defense or make a basket off a one-on-one play, it's not capable of scoring. Nothing has changed.
 
Well, LV's will definitely be better when Massengale returns, but I don't think a trip to the FF is in the cards without a very favorable draw and some luck. Too weak defensively, and their offense is all perimeter. I thought Baugh would really help on the offensive end, but it does not seem to be happening.
 
Kudos t0 Simmons. She buries two 3's at winning time. Rutgers had it in their grasp and let slip away.
