Tennessee @ Louisiana St - 1/10/21

[SECbbfan24]

Horston shoots an airball in to Key's hands. LOL

Came from the Holly Warlick playbook. Still works lol

 

[nwhoopfan]

Harper is looking like an average coach. Upgrade over Holly but not the kind of coaching that will make Tennessee elite again. I honestly was expecting more from her.

Zero in game adjustments at all.

She's done well at mid majors but look at her tenure at NC State. Not impressive.

 

[SECbbfan24]

She misses both free throws LMAO

 

[eebmg]

Emmy awards for worst closing performance goes to BOTH teams.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Tennessee is choke mode. Good lord 4 missed free throws and then a turnover.

 

[Shades]

Both teams doing their share of choking. Who wants to win?

Wouldn't that be a Razzie award?

 

[SECbbfan24]

Tennessee wins or lucks out. They are gonna get murdered by UCONN soon.

They should be playing better with the talent they have IMO.

 

[Shades]

Wow, what a weak last possession for LSU.

 

[Vowelguy]

After the tie up, why did Tenn shoot?

 

[Alydar]

I hope the AP voters saw their last game and missed this one.

UConn needs ranked opponents, no matter how they look.

 

[UConnCat]

Tenn ends the game by missing 4 FTs and a layup and still wins.

Nikki can not coach offense and her teams don't play smart.

We knew this 5 years ago. She can't recruit. If it weren't for her having a really good basketball player in the family, we are royally screwed right now. All she knows is defense and rebounding, and thats it.

We are likely gonna end the year with a losing record with no NCAAT appearance.

 

[stwainfan]

I didn't expect a easy win today.

They dont watch the games. They just look at the record.

Tenn provides 2 new challenges — big physical posts for Ono and a tall guard with long arms for Paige. Haven’t seen either of those this year and dealing with them will be the difference.

 

[MSGRET]

32-33 LV at the half. This would be a colossal loss for us if Tennessee were to lose on 3 fronts:
1. We wanted to have top 25 matchup in 2 weeks
2. Tennessee looked good against Arkansas especially after 2 weeks of COVID, and was making noise for top 4 SEC consideration
3. LSU Administration might be duped into extending Nikki

I hear that the LSU AD is in discussions with Nikki about her GREAT effort against the powerful Lady Vols. They haven't decided if it's going to be a 3 or 5 year extension but an announcement should be coming soon.

I didn't expect a easy win today.

Again, the residual brilliance of Holly Warlick in bringing fanbase expectations down to zero deserves greater acknowledgement

I think if Holly was the coach. Then Tennessee would have lost today.

 

[MSGRET]

I think if Holly was the coach. Then Tennessee would have lost today.

And if Nikki wasn't the coach Tennessee would have been blown out of the Arena.

 

[Plebe]

I think if Holly was the coach. Then Tennessee would have lost today.

A comforting thought, I'm sure, but this is easily the worst LSU team in decades, and Holly did have a winning record against LSU.

Why not? As good as they looked against Arkansas? I thought they would blow LSU out. Someone on VolNation said Tennessee is good enough to beat most teams, including UConn, except the very elite teams.

Arkansas plays a different style than LSU. That was also part of it.

 

[Vowelguy]

They dont watch the games. They just look at the record.

Tenn has beaten Indiana and Ark, both pretty good teams.
