Tenn Fla on now ESPNU 11:30 am

[Tonyc]

Cablevision FFLD CTY Ch 144

 

[Vowelguy]

Harrison out with 2 fouls early.
TN doing a very good job of pushing the ball on the break -- that's where Simmons is an asset. They also seem to have much better spacing -- getting a decent number of open outside shots.
FL staying in thanks to some good shooting, but I dont think that can last.

 

[Vowelguy]

FL's best player, a center, injured late in 1st half and won't return.

TN has gotten a lot of easy scores by pushing the ball after a made basket. They're very good at pushing tempo and it's a style that plays right into Simmons -- she's had a good game (9/16 with only 1 TO).

 

[Bestiarius]

Jennifer George, Florida's best player, is out with a shoulder injury. That will make life easy for the Vols.

 

[Vowelguy]

TN had a 9pt lead and thought it was over, but FL has pulled it back to 58-57 with 9 to go.

 

[sivad40]

75-75 in :53 in OT. Meighan Simmons will shoot Tenn in and out of a game.

 

[pinotbear]

Florida, down by one point, had two FT with 8 seconds left, in OT. Hit one, tie game: hit both, win the game: miss both, Tenn rebounds, and wins.

Tennesee wins by 3.

 

[MilfordHusky]

75-75 in :53 in OT. Meighan Simmons will shoot Tenn in and out of a game.

That is exactly Simmons' game. No consistency. Poor shot selection.

 

[stwainfan]

A exciting game glad for the win.

Tenn has no team offense, their defense is porous. Tenn has excellent individual talent that plays like a school yard pick-up team. Their practices must consist entirely of of one-on-one's. They pass the ball around to no effect until a player decides to make a move. They only had 11 assists in an overtime game. If George had played the second half. Florida would have won.
