HEAR FROM THE UTES
Lynne Roberts, Head Coach
Opening Statement…
"Incredibly proud of our team. What a tremendous win. We controlled it from start to finish. USC made their runs but we pushed back. Defensively we were really good. Dasia Young and Maty Wilke did a tremendous job on [JuJu] Watkins. She's a tough guard. It was an overall great team win. We talked this week that we weren't going to settle for anything but winning. We were going to go out and play as hard as we could."

    Jenna Johnson needs to run a clinic for these offensive fouls. I don’t think there has been one game where she hasn’t taken a charge at least once.

    That's the part of the game that's getting on my nerves. The game when Missouri beat Vanderbilt, Vandy was leading in control and Mizz was making their come back. Flopping ass Frank was defending the ball handler. The Vandy player took one dribble but didn't move towards the basket with much force at all. Her elbow may have grazed Frank, like barley made contact. Frank go into her Hollywood dramatics, she fell in slow motion and every thing. Refs call a charge, smh... I think it took some momentum out of Vanderbilt. A questionable charge/block should go to the offense every time. This bailing folk out of playing defense shouldn't be rewarded.
