Ya got to hand it to Russell. White and Caron-Goudreau both with 4 fouls while Mercedes has yet to be called for her first.

Hayes has looked rattled, but Westbrook and Davis haven't really seemed fazed by playing in a big game. They've made some mistakes but haven't looked nervous.

C-G is a bull in a china shop. She should have been called for 24 fouls.

Can't believe Texas is ranked #2! They look really horrible in this game.


They were ranked #2 in the preseason poll, and they haven't loss yet, so that's kinda how it works.


Oh I know how it works, just wow. I haven't seen them play this season, so I'm surprised at how they look seeing their rank.

Game Summary: Tenn is playing less bad than Texas, and both are playing less bad than the officials.

I swear Texas has thrown up assortment of circus shots within 5 feet of the basket this half and has made none.

Texas looks like the same hot mess of undisciplined talent that I watched UConn annihilate by 50 3 years ago in the Albany regional. Every player tries to win it on their own.

Obviously Westbrook is going to fit right in at Tennessee. Rolling Eyes

That taunt surprises me. She is usually much more composed than that.

Debbie: "Both teams have a lot of time to improve based on what they take away from today's game"

Translation: they're both playing like crap.

The question is which coach looks more clueless. I'm voting Aston.

Well she's only played 8 games. Today she could have been T's up for pushing a Texas player earlier. Looks a bit punkish.

Looks like the old LV's right now. Somebody throws up a shot and her teammates get as many offensive boards as they need to score.

This is why I don't understand all the flack directed at McCallie. I'd take her any day over either of these two coaches. Heck with the local talent pool around Texas, and the history surrounding Tennessee, my grandmother could recruit at either one, and she's been dead for years. That seems to be the only reason either of these teams wins a game is because they have much better players than most of their opponents.

And why people tout McCarty as some great point guard has always escaped me.

The Russell screen I think was legal, but it was nasty. And in subsequent screens, Russell definitely gives just a little extra. And there is a lot of her to give that extra.

Debbie: "Holly, you're not going to like it the second time you watch it tonight either."

Classic.

This is the worst officiating I've seen in a long time.

Holmes should be a decent upgrade to Caron-Goudreau

I will say that Tenn generally looks a lot smarter and less inept in breaking Texas's press than Texas looks against Tennessee's.

Texas is totally uncomposed. Tenn just 80%

These calls are making so little sense that I can't figure out what going on in the game.

And there's a make-up call for the last bad call.

Yikes, this is one of the worst games I've watched in a long time. Horrible shot selection, terrible passes when players have decided to pass Shocked, low bball IQ all around.

Good timing Debbie

"Tenn can ice it with some good free throw shooting". Followed by two bricks from the line by Nared.

The refs are not the reason this game is a hot mess.
