Feeling sorry for you at the moment with all the high pitched screaming. Our girls need to settle down and go on a run and quiet that crowd.

We will be ok

I give up on trying to understand the difference between a charge and a block anymore - there no such thing as a defender being set for 1 second anymore and the offensive player is suppose to stop In midair

 

[Goofy141!]

Like the play of the freshmen but Maddie needs to realize she’s got 4 teammates when she’s trying to break that press instead of trying to dribble through three defenders

 

[Goofy141!]

Another example. Clear push by UT and they call a push on MF

 

[Goofy141!]

Some of these fouls are laughable

 

[Goofy141!]

Sloppy basketball
Last few
Minutes

 

[Goofy141!]

Fulwilly needs to quit with the quick 3s if shes off. Kills the whole mojo

 

[Evilchicken]

Dauda should not be on this team.

 

[Goofy141!]

Why is that same girl taking the ball out? She’s turned over twice in a row - she panics

 

[Evilchicken]

Did Paopao go back to Oregon?? Cause she disappeared this season

 

[Goofy141!]

Girls are getting lazy and not going to the ball when they stop dribbling

 

[Evilchicken]

Why is that same girl taking the ball out? She’s turned over twice in a row - she panics

She’s effing horrible

 

[Goofy141!]

Did Paopao go back to Oregon?? Cause she disappeared this season

Her 3s haven’t been as consistent but it can change at anytime

 

[Goofy141!]

Just looking tired and not playing good d

 

[Goofy141!]

Not running their offense and playing horrible horrible defense

 

[Goofy141!]

Missing point blank layups

 

[Goofy141!]

Really horrible 4th quarter which is when we are usually really good

 

[Evilchicken]

Does Dawn practice passing at all??

 

[Goofy141!]

Fagin has reverted back to her old self and we are just standing around on defense watching UT run right by us.

 

[Goofy141!]

Pao Pao should have taken that 15 ft jumper instead of trying to drop It off.

 

[Goofy141!]

Lucky to win this game honestly if UT would have played the whole 4th like they played the last 5 minutes this is a loss

 

[Goofy141!]

Unbelievable- 4 tries on that last possession for UT - FOUR

 

[Goofy141!]

Blown a TWENTY TWO POINT LEAD down to six. Unbelievable

 

[PrestonyteParrot]

Beat another ranked team - on the road. But too sloppy to be a championship team - have to clean it up.

 

[Goofy141!]

First time in a while that this team hasn’t looked like they could win the Natty

 

[Anon1670041242]

They looked like they tired out in 4th maybe with a shorter recovery time and the tough LSU game. Other than previous comments, my concern was Kitts getting pushed around for rebounds.

 

[USCEE82]

Missing point blank layups

Same as against LSU last Friday

 

[KingWard]

I hated how we closed; hated it.

Very reminiscent of the Duke game but that had to do with messing around with the lineup. This might have been a matter of running out of gas or loss of focus.

Honest question: did our five best players finish the game?

No, but that’s also how we start the game too. 3 of our best come off the bench.

 

[PeeCock78]

I’m beginning to think that Staley doesn’t realize that offensive rebounding is a part of the game. A player launches one beyond the 3 pt. line and the other four players just stand there and watch it. At the half they had only two offensive rebounds. Shameful!

And don’t get me started on the missed shots, layups or otherwise, directly under the basket!

 

[adcoop]

Sometimes, you have to just get the win and keep it moving. Tennessee turns everyone over, but I think we had far too much dribbling out of traps and Dauda does not have enough experience for her to be the inbounder against Tennessee, of all teams. I know we are going to need her as that 4th big. However, save that for the upcoming games against lesser opponents like Georgia and Auburn.

 

[Tngamecock]

Funny how one game turns people around. I could tell our gang was tired. LSU Friday, the travel to ut Monday. Oh yeah, keep your grades up. This break comes at a good time.

I also think Tac or Walker needs to be the other post relief person. Just because Dauda can hit a three once in a blue moon, that’s not helping us.
I know Dawn knows this team better than we do, but watching warm-ups last night, I swear Walker has the most talent of the three that never play. Put her 6’5” frame in and let her bang a little. Miriam looks lost

 

[The Reel Ess]

The announcer actually said "Dawn's leaving them in to figure it out for themselves". Don't make too much of it.

It's maddening sometimes to watch that. Stand under the rim and throw the ball directly at it. Miss the easy layup because you thought someone was going to contest it so you went way too hard. We have a couple of girls with an understanding of physics. Like, when I do X with the ball, it's going to react with Y. But it's women's BBall. Watkins is missed.

[Goofy141!]

I gripped myself last night about how they finished the game but after calming down - it’s still a win against a top 20 team in their home court and realizing we have played 5 straight games against top 20 teams - that’s rough for any squad so I get it and I am excited about going 5-0 against that stretch. The ladies need a rest and they got one coming up so we will be ok

 

[Uscg1984]

A win is a win is a win. And getting 5 in a row against ranked teams is a big deal. But I do fear that the combination of poor three-point shooting and lack of domination on the boards will cost us eventually. When/If that happens, I just hope it's not a do-or-die game.

 

[Evilchicken]

UCLA has the athletes and the height to handle our starters AND bench, and I do not trust Paopao, Breezy, or Tessa to step up if we meet them again. UCLA is the ONLY team I fear out there. Betts is arguably better than Aliyah or Kamila.
