If the 'real' Tennessee showed up, they could win. But the chances are high that the crappier Tennessee will appear, as they have done repeatedly this season. The crappier Tennessee will have no chance. I hope the 'real' version shows up so we can have an interesting game.

Agree they have to show up, but I think the real issue is CGreen and KK staying out of foul trouble, something they're rarely able to do. If they're on the bench, McCowan will be free to score 50 points. And Evina and MeMe have to be able to stop their guards.

McCowan is going to score 50 whether they get in foul trouble or not. We need to rebound on the defensive end and stop everybody else from going off. Im a bit nervous about Evina's decision making against MSU's pressure. Could be a long night if shes.not attacking to score.

Tennessee hanging in there so far. Rennia showing up is always a good thing for this team.

These shot clock violations and near-violations are directly the result of Westbrook's absence.

13 pts for Davis already. When she comes to play, she's pretty much unstoppable offensively. If she'd put the same effect into defense, she'd be an AA.

well, Evina sometimes does a lot of stupid things and tries to do much herself, and then looks like she is sulking, which affects the whole team. I think they look pretty good without her. Part of that is that Davis is 'on'. When she's on, yeah she's unstoppable. Z. Green hoists a lot of bad shots. I'd like to see more of Jackson. She adds a different dimension to the team. And I think defensively they're doing the right thing of packing it in the paint and daring the three ball from the MSU guards.

Jackson's just recovered from an ankle injury. The previous game was her first one back. Prior to her injury, she was averaging >30 mpg. Massengill is doing pretty well this season for a freshman back-up PG. She makes pretty good decisions, takes care of the ball, and can shoot the 2. She's a lousy 3 pt shooter though.

Two steps forward, and two steps back. Net gain, zero.

The difference in this game is Tenn's rapidly worsening defense.

So true! I was excited about how well they were hanging and then.... Yikes! Mississippi State and really does have nice post and guard play.

Btw, Davis really needs to always play like she did in this game. She really could be quite lethal.

As a vol fan, I hope Rennia transfers next season. She looks to have so much potential, but there is nothing at UT to develop her talent except maybe Evina. Horrible state of affairs. But the good thing is, after watching closely the UT train wreck,I now have my own kid who plays elite teavel on a strict routine that demands effort and doesn’t, okay maybe occasionally, requires the Summitt stare. It has been working very well. See Holly, you can demand excellence and be all nicey-nicey.

Rennia will go as far as her own motivation takes her. She has rarely this season decided to play like she did on the offensive end of the court yesterday. I don't think I've ever, in 1 1/2 yrs, seen her run to get back on defense. She needs a kick in the ***.
