Too bad since Duke would have fared better against the Lady Vols.

Have they given up already? Too many o-rebounds being given up.

Wow, go Aggies, looks like they are doing what Rutgers did last year.

I can't agree with that. This Duke team sucks monkey ass. TAMU, on the other hand, is good. Very good.

I'm feeling bad for Abbey...she needs to hit just one 3 to get something started. Texas A&M is on a run and Duke needs to stop making stupid plays. I'm getting mad just looking at this game.

But TAMU doesn't have an inside presence. The Vols will kill them on the offensive boards.

And the Vols actually have someone that can make outside shots... which means that you can't double down on the posts. Plus, having Parker means she can draw you out a bit anyway and play the midrange game.

They have the inside strength to withstand the Vols on the backboard, but it's a moot point now. LOL

We're supposed to be doing that to them in this game, and we've got more size at some positions than Tennessee does.

I'm not saying that Texas A&M will win, but they do have a chance given the game's location and the way their players perform (play hard AND smart).

Duke doesn't even look like they care. What seems most off about Abby is that she doesn't appear to be a vocal leader at all. I think that is where she has really been taken out of her game. She really needs a change of setting to turn things around or a defined position.

McCallie is going to need to take ownership of her program and find a way to get her players on board with her otherwise this is about the most success Duke is ever going to find under her.

Why doesn't Abby try driving the lane? I think that is something she needs to learn/work on over the summer along with a J.

I wish Duke had a player like Takia Starks. Crying or Very sad

Well Abby would have been your Starks... Duke just looks so demoralized right now. This is sad to watch. Crying or Very sad

Also, it looks like every call is going Tamu's way.

I agree. Texas A&M has the athletes to match with Tennessee. I don't see Bjorklund going off on a team like the Aggies, and I sure as hell don't see Bobbitt dominating offensively with Franklin on her.

Sure, they have the advantage in the paint, but I don't recall Parker, Fuller and Anosike scoring a combined 60-70 points this year. Hell, has Anosike even scored 60 points throughout the season? Laughing

Is it just me or is listening to Nancy getting more and more like hearing your Grandma's stories?

I think you're giving TN too little credit. I'm sure (assuming TN gets to the Elite 8 ) Summit will have them ready.

Ouch. Sad

I hope both of the players (Franklin and Thomas) are okay. They're clutching their knees.
