Considering how much folks around here also dislike Syracuse, I thought the law was amended to "Anybody Not Wearing Orange."

On that, we can all agree; hate all teams wearing orange.
 
TENN is so bad. Should be trouncing SC with no Wilson.

Outside of Wilson, SC is shaky. While you never know which TN team will show up, I’m thinking the Lady Vols will be up for this one at home, pulling off an upset.

Would it be an upset against a Wilsonless SC?

Holly’s still the coach and she did make it to the game right? I will take SC, if only for the VolNation implosion if Tenn were to lose at home on senior day...:rolleyes:

The pace - and the collegiate quality - :rolleyes: have me thinking negative thoughts about the overall future of a sport with only a few quality programs (programs - not teams with a player giving a team a record for a couple of years) prividing a level of play that is both beautiful and fascinating to watch.

This game - and these two teams - sure ain’t it
 
midway through the 2nd period and the teams have combined to shoot 13-44 (29%) and 18 turnovers (mostly unforced errors). I sure hope the NCAA selection committee is watching this mess.

Classic SEC basketball. A bunch of athletic people struggling to play basketball.

Let me add to that, I have been watching Virginia-Wake Forest and that’s a classic lower half of the ACC, a bunch of non-athletic people struggling to play basketball...Head bang

Virginia is not a quality team. How they won 9 games in the ACC is a puzzle to me..
 
I’m pissed as a lady vol fan. I do not want to be a basket but lord how do you continue to coach a team poorly year after year just don’t get any better. Smh!

Now that's what I call Lady Vol basketball!

Holly was an AA guard right? How is it this teams guard play is so bad that they can’t get Russell ball? That said, Russell needs to work harder to WANT THE BALL.

This game should be a mismatch but Tenn continues to play down to their competition

It became unraveled, apparently. The short handed Gamecocks may run out of gas, but those freshmen and sophomores are holding their own, so far.

Just a conspiracy theory on my part. The fact A'ja Wilson is not playing, Dawn didn't want her team to lose just to get out of the Albany Regional...no can't be! :eek:
 
An Ugly SEC game with extremely talented players on both teams. Neither team can score 30 points and Lady Vols barely scored 20 points

Trying to fathom your theory...sounds interesting if one could figure out what it means. So..." Dawn didn't want her team to lose just to get out of the Albany Regional"....???

Explique, s'il vous plait

Nobody wants to be in the Albany region where they could face UConn in a sold-out TUC in front of 15000 Husky fans.

My weird conspiracy theory was that TN wants to show Wilson is not the NPOY by losing to SC without her playing. :D:confused::confused::confused:
 
.-.
I have a hard time believing anything other than that Wilson bumped her head and is under the concussion protocol. Staley didn't get where she is by avoiding things. In addition this nationally televised game would have been a great stage for Wilson to enhance her POY credentials.

I only hope that when the "committee" gets around to looking at Tenn's "big wins" they notice that in their only 3 wins against an elite team (assuming Tenn comes back in this one), Wilson missed both their games and that McPhee was playing her first game back from injury and Texas played without Holmes.

Watch this game and watch ND's game and remember that Jaime Nared is on the watch list for the Miller award (best small forward) and Jackie Young isn't. What an absolute and total joke.

Many of those awards are political, starting with the high school level awards.

Spoke to soon. TN opens 2nd half with 10-0 run. Did not see that coming. :confused:
 
7:20 in the 3rd

S Car seems intent on passing inside to low posts being double teamed. They should be skilled enough to see that and know where their team mates are being left uncovered. I can't believe that Dawn doesn't have a player who can shoot 3's.

More and more it looks like S Car is a one-player team and UConn has rarely had a problem dealing with that.

SC offense has been built, practiced, and committed to bringing ball over half court, finding Wilson around the key, dumping it in and letting her spin or drive and either score or be fouled or both. They are lost figuring out any alternative. And right now their spirit and heart seem gone - and that’s not something you’d expect from a Staley coached team
