Well, the LVs got to within 2 early in the 4th, but hit another scoring drought (or draught ;) because they were ice cold).

Miss State leads by 11 inside of 2 minutes.
 
Meanwhile Cal is taking it to UCLA in the 1st 19-7.

Cal is turning it out right now!
 
That point-a-minute juggernaut known as the Lady Vols just lost to Mississippi State, 58-48.

Their shooting: 28.1% on FGs; 25.0% on 3-pointers; 52.6% on FTs (they are supposed to be FREE).

6 assists on 18 baskets
 
And they are a tournament team? Really?

Final Tenn 48, Miss St 58

Actually, the final seemed to be Miss State 58, Diamond 48. Down the stretch I don't know if anyone but her touched the ball - that included bringing it up the court and forcing any old shot she decided on. Yes she has basketball skills. No she's not a good basketball player. Last I checked it wasn't a 1 on 1 game on the blacktop...

Vivians is a great player and seems like a great kid too.

I'd love to see the LadyVols in our bracket as an 8 or 9 seed, but sadly, they might not be good enough to get past their first opponent to face us.

I've got a feeling this could be the year. TN doesn't have the juice anymore with the committee...we're far enough removed from the Summitt era. The committee may at last decide not to protect them from us anymore...for the good of the game.
 
In defense of Diamond
She worked hard on D
And no one else seemed to want to take a shot...maybe Graves excepted...and she missed most of her attempts
 
It's interesting that everyone blames DD for TNs troubles. I saw one stretch where on 3-4 straight possessions one TN player dribbled the ball the whole time and then took a bad shot (yes there were 0 passes). None of those were DD. Meanwhile Russell was taken out of the game down the stretch, showing how effective she had been. Bottom line: TN has ample problems. To me, DD is the least of their concerns.

From a promotional standpoint, it's a no brainer. It would be the most highly anticipated 1 vs 8/9 game in tournament history, by a wide margin.

Funny thing; just a few minutes ago I read an almost identical post over on VolNation!! Them folks over yonder just are NOT happy atall! Ready to shoot anything that moves! Ready to hire Peck. Or Tyler. Or just damned near anyone.
 
Anigwe picks up her 4th foul and heads to the bench. Bruins go on a 12-4 run!

No denying how crucial she is to the Bears success.

If Cal could get some guards to help the post players they could be really good.

Maybe coaches can look to the JUCO route to help next season.

Cal coach Lindsey Gotlieb just said Jordan Canada was the second best point guard in America behind.


Moriah Jefferson!

Mo got that PAC12 respect.

When Muffet made her ridiculous statement about Allen being the best PG, I was telling everyone that Jordin Canada, Tyra Buss, and Niya Johnson have all had more outstanding years as point guards. Allen would be lucky to make top 5.
 
Is Cal is gonna get the upset? Leading UCLA 61-58 with 16 seconds
