Message: [QUOTE="Gamecockfan77, post: 3422839, member: 6414"] South Carolina 69 Tennessee 48 This one played out about how I expected and better than I feared. Tennessee does not have any half court offense and does not take care of the ball and that lead to a lot of transition points. They just didn't get a lot of clean looks at all. But as I guessed, Tennessee zoned Carolina quite a bit and the length was a big problem and made it difficult for South Carolina score. I did not think that South Carolina was very comfortable in knowing what shots they were seeking, but Tennessee certainly influenced that by blocking or altering a lot of shots off initial penetration. That's a really good defensive team. USC has played probably five or six games where the offense wasn't there. The only blemish (and close game) was the Indiana loss. I put that primarily on a bad night for Ty Harris and Boston being taken out of the game by the officials. When you look at Maryland, Baylor, Tennessee...for the most part the margins have been relatively comfortable in these outings. South Carolina isn't too bad at winning ugly. ..... the major development for the SEC race is the injury to Boston. South Carolina is a good team without her, but it's not an elite team in my view. With Amihere possibly being with Team Canada for another week, South Carolina might be quite short handed at Arkansas this week if Boston is out. Does not sound like it is too serious as Staley suggested she could have put her back in the game. Just looking at her on the bench, she did not appear to be particularly upset, though you could see she was not moving well. I wouldn't be shocked if she sat out the next game or two. That would be unfortunate timing, particularly if she were to miss UCONN. [/QUOTE]
