This is a game that comparing rosters and recent play, we shouldnt win either.
But we are playing at home.  Williams and Thomas are going to be well motivated by their lack of success against SC.
We do have Devin Cosper back with a little playing time to get her ready to really play.
I dont think we can discount the beginning emergence of Macy Weaver either, and her team mates looking for her for a change.  In past games she would be wide open deep and they still were relunctant to feed her the ball.  Something changed before the game with SC, they repeatedly looked for her and feed her.  Her scoring on the first feed from a great setup by Cosper might have something to do with Mason, Stout and RNB looking for her after that, but I think from reviewing the game a couple more times on her segments, that it was by design.  I think the coaching staff is now starting to see that she can be effective.

Mason will play her steady game and MM will find better driving lanes.  If Cosper returns to form (and I think she will come close to it, to full form after just one game is a bit much to expect), and if RNB is up to form I think we have a real shot at winning this one at home and it not really being an upset. 

That is another player that merits mention as well in improvement.  Swenson is starting to play with intensity and blood in her eye.  I think one thing I can guarantee is that these girls arent going to come out and play the way they did against Florida at home.  I still predict a win for this game.

We should win and we need to win this one or it will be another long season.

after watching the LSU/Tenner game it is obvious to me that there is generally a home court bias in SEC officiating (despite the fact that we seem seldom to get it).   But at least like Bama, when LSU got the favorable officiating they were able to do something with it and beat Tenner.  They are better than I thought, but they arent that much better.  both teams missed a lot of outside shots and were bad at the line.

As of now, the starting lineup shows Spangler and Stout.  Not sure what that means.

Like the erstwhile Clark Kent, my true identity is shielded.  I am an author, Nathan J. Allison is my pen name.

psycHOGlogist

We are not doing a good job of attacking the zone at this point. Hope we can make some adjustments.

Also, Zimmerman is having another really bad game so far. She looks lost on D and has had the ball ripped out of her hands a couple times.

flippinhogmana

zimmer turns it over, Thomas with a foul on the ensuing Kentucky possession, side out, misses but they get a board and put back, hogs needing more height as usual 17-12 Kentucky on a 10 point run and now a thirteen as they hit a three,
Monk is fouled on a driving layup attempt will go to the line, hits the first to break the Kentucky run and swinson comes in (monk hits both) under a minute to go Kentucky has a five point lead 19-14, tie up on their possession and hogs ball with now under thirty to go and monk turns it over.  Kentucky scores as the quarter expires, 21-14.

Kentucky wants this game more right now, our girls have to play harder

williams and cosper back in, weaver and zimmer out

psycHOGlogist

The guards are really doing a bad job of attacking the zone. That surprises me.

flippinhogmana

hogs just look outs of sorts too
Kentucky has an 11 point lead now, hogs yet to show up for a game they should win at home.  They had like a five minute burst and then not much since
hogs timeout

flippinhogmana

mike took out weaver after a minute but it looked like to me that it was swinson screwing up (even if she was trying hard), but it is mostly the guards as you say
Like the erstwhile Clark Kent, my true identity is shielded.  I am an author, Nathan J. Allison is my pen name.

flippinhogmana

cosper is nowhere near herself yet either
cosper drives and draws a foul, hits both fts 25-16
swinson with good defense draws a charge
williams works hard inside for a bucket, hogs playing harder, zimmer misses a three
kentucky hits a three, 28-18 again and zimmer needs to find a spot on the bench
Like the erstwhile Clark Kent, my true identity is shielded.  I am an author, Nathan J. Allison is my pen name.

psycHOGlogist

Please, put Zimmerman out of our misery. There are better looking shots in the brickyard.

And she is still doing nothing on defense. Ugh.


psycHOGlogist

This officiating is also garbage.

hogs with ten turnovers and most of them were just straight steals, cosper and rnb with two each, along with the poor defense, and poor shooting they arent giving themselves a shot

psycHOGlogist

Bears repeating - this officiating is absolutely awful.

flippinhogmana

true but then that seems to be par for the course.  I thought the officiating was bad in football and men's bb, but I see bad officiating in most games I watch.

Please, oh deities of basketball, put Zimmerman back on the bench. She really has no conception of her limits as a player. Stop trying to dribble ... period.

Ok, I lied. I didn't stop watching. And I have to give some props to Zimmerman - she's done a bit better effort wise on the offensive glass.

But gah, this officiating. Is. Still. Awful.

But here's a second to the motion of bringing in Gaulden and Dungee. Lol

flippinhogmana
