Tennessee @ Mississippi St (6) - 2/10/19

[SCGamecock]

Brooke Weisbrod is very annoying!

Very. Same talking points every game. It’s like she’s reading from a script.

Hey vol boy, if you do not want to be identified, you should bring a change of shirt as well.

Imma go over to Volnation just to get a peak at the meltdown

 

[Jmsdawg]

UT is better than their record and IMHO will be in the tournament. Certainly not a high seed but I expect they will win most of their remaining games. As for MSST, if we win out we deserve a number 1 seed not in Albany!

 

[SimpleDawg]

Bre and Jordan.

Me too!

Was it my imagination or did Holly not blow a time out during that 4th Q. ?

 

[Vowelguy]

Just my opinion. There are enough ESPN games on that they don't need to show it multiple times during a game where ND isn't playing AND MS ST or UConn is. Kinda rubbing it in (again, IMO). I think every WBB fan knows that the tournament games are on ESPN.

This is sports not quilt making.

 

[Vowelguy]

I feel like I have seen Arike’s shots way more than Morgan William’s.

Um, perhaps bc one of them won a title and one of them didnt?

 

[Vowelguy]

and the taunting of LVol fans begins in earnest as Creme will soon knock them off the board.

Based on what? Losing to a top 5 team?

 

[Jmsdawg]

Me too!

Big surprise, Fire Holly is the subject over on Vol Nstion. Guess they do not like their coach!

 

[SimpleDawg]

Whatever positives her 3pt threat is (and I can see it when she is on), she is very slow compared to her team mates. Vic can't play the ravenous defense with her on court imho and her floating to the corner every single time and clamping down sucks some of the energy on offense imho.

I think she's much quicker now. I've never seen her move like that. Earlier in the year, she had some of the worst feet on the team, and that doesn't bode well by the standards of this team at all. Since then, she's making plays like that baseline to the hoop in the 1st quarter in this game.

her 3 point shot is still unproven though. There's no doubt in my mind now that Bre'Amber Scott is a better player currently. Though that may change soon if AEH can continue to improve.

They were expecting to win this game?

 

[MSSportsGuy]

I was at the Hump and watched in person. It wasn’t the best effort by MSU but I will take it. TN is better than their record and Westbrook would have helped but there was no doubt who was better today.

That is fine with me. I would prefer that UConn make the Final Four before it has to enter the sequoia forest (Baylor and Mississippi State).

Hopefully this is the nail in the coffin for Holly.

 

[Plebe]

Hopefully this is the nail in the coffin for Holly.

No way!

There are so many positives to take away from this game! They were without their starting PG and leading scorer, and still competed admirably! This was a one-possession game in the 2nd half in a very hostile environment! They exceeded everyone's expectations!

Based on what? Losing to a top 5 team?

Too many losses against unranked teams and a very bad loss against a top five team.

Some of the VolNation faithful had talked themselves into it. I think it was the fool's gold of winning the last two games.

C'mon Plebe, you know it's BS...you just want Holly to get another extension.

 

[Vowelguy]

They had all those losses last week when he had them in.
So what changed in the past week? A win over Vandy & a loss to Miss St. As expected. Unless a bubble team had a really good week, I don't see the rationale for moving them down.

A very bad loss? They were within 6 late in 3rd, on the road, without their best player.

In contrast, a top 25 team (FSU) was down early and never remotely close against another top 5 team.

 

[Vowelguy]

C'mon Plebe, you know it's BS...you just want Holly to get another extension.

True, but they did play very well and exceeded expectations.

The game where they were down by ~20 to Stetson (but won) was a terrible outing. This was not.

I always thought Holly was trashed when she did not deserve it. The game has changed so much since Pat coached there. I am not positive...but I am pretty darn sure that Pat would have been to a few final fours with the talent that Holly has...and has had. She seems to bring out the worse...not the best...in these great players she gets. They will play great for one game out of four. It makes no sense. I get a loss to Miss St....but some of the others ?????? I think the Vol fan base is correct when they say Holly is in over her head !
