Big game tonight

[18IsTheMan]

UGA at CLA. They are much improved over last year and gave UT all it could handle on Saturday. A win would set us up to potentially go 4-1 with a win over Arkansas on Saturday. 3 of our next 5 after that are against UK, UT and Ole Miss, who are all currently ranked.

 

[Deleted11512]

If we win the next two, that home game on 1/23 against UK is going to be bananas.

Meechie gotta get going again.

Meechie gotta get going again.

I think Meechie and Mack shoot better behind the three point arc when playing at the Colonial Life Arena.

 

[RUMMENIGGE]

Need another steel curtain defense performance.

 

[Kdaddy78]

Definitely a big game. Not necessarily a must win, but a win will certainly help our Net Rankings where we currently sit at 55. Whereas a loss may push us down in the 70s. Right now, Lunardi has us projected as a 10 seed.

These are the games we've got to win if we want to make the tournament. A home game against a team at or near our level? Must win.

Why is it at 9 pm if it’s not on TV?

BJ needs to go inside. His shot is gone.

 

[Viennacock]

BJ needs to go inside. His shot is gone.

I think he's 1 of 3 behind the arch tonight. Not great but not awful. He was wide open on the two he missed.

 

[1vagamecock]

I think everyone's shot is gone the last couple weeks. No one can hit from outside lately

 

[Beanerball]

Need to hold home court advantage. Road wins are hard to come by. We need this one to stay ahead of the curve.

It is a must win as we are the last team in from the SEC according to the ESPN Bracketology with UGA being left out. If they win at our place, they then have the leg up for one of the last teams in and us OUT.

 

[Tngamecock]

Refs in rare form tonight. The proverbial every ball is off of us, every touch by us is a foul, and every bang by Georgia is not a foul. I hate nights like this.

 

[1vagamecock]

If Gray could hit a free throw we would've taken control right there.

 

[1vagamecock]

This is the worst is the worst free throw shooting team I've ever seen.

 

[Bubba Fett]

If Gray could hit a free throw we would've taken control right there.

He shoots free throws like the ball is a frozen turkey.

 

[Bubba Fett]

We've had no clue, no answer, no nothing since about the 10 minute mark. Got a little lead and then went on vacation.

 

[Bubba Fett]

SIX minutes without a field goal. Yikes.

 

[Deleted11512]

Gotta stop with the quick 3s and run some sets. FTs are killing us.

 

[Tngamecock]

FTs losing this game. 4 of 15 in half ughhhh

 

[Deleted11512]

Fouling is out of control. We do a great job on D then ruin it unnecessarily with a stupid foul. Guys need to get their heads in the game!!

 

[Tngamecock]

We need three point field goals and he’s been playing Zach Davis forever. Zach is a nice defensive player but he is not a scorer. Put Stute in. Lamont kills us with his sub patterns

 

[1vagamecock]

We aren't going to have a comfortable game in league play. This team just can't make it easy on themselves

 

[Tngamecock]

Get Davis out of there..we need Stute for shooting at this juncture.

 

[FootballLVR]

I'm a football guy but I love all sports. Hate losing at home in ANY game.

 

[1vagamecock]

Next game is a must win if we want to make the tournament.

 

[Tngamecock]

Get Davis out of there..we need Stute for shooting at this juncture.

And it hit me….,Stute went out with an injury so wasn’t available

 

[1vagamecock]

Looking less and less like a tournament team and more like a nit team this year.
Just lack that it factor of playing as a team.

 

[Tngamecock]

Crappy refs, crappy foul shooting, crappy loss

 

[Arsenal48]

Everyone knows people come to watch the refs. Glad i got my money's worth tonight.

 

[Cackmandu]

Have to go better than 17-32 at the line, that's your game story.

 

[18IsTheMan]

Have to go better than 17-32 at the line, that's your game story.

Yeah, that's brutal. Can't blame the refs for that. UGA was 25-32 from the line. We were 17-32. That's the ball game. Refs gave us equal chances.

Now the Arkansas game is absolute must-win.

 

[Deleted11512]

Have to go better than 17-32 at the line, that's your game story.

Yep! Way out of character for this team to shoot FT that bad. Refs were pathetic, but we didn’t make it any easier on ourselves.

 

[Prestonyte]

If Gray could hit a free throw we would've taken control right there.

My coach used to say, ''The basketball is not a hand grenade, some precision is required''.

Sucks for Gray. Was the hero a few days ago by hitting a couple of clutch FTs, misses 5 in a row last night. He and CMB missed 11 of the 15 FTs we missed last night.

 

[Deleted11512]

In terms of our resume, Clem isn't helping. They just lost to 8-8 GT at home. That's a really bad loss for them. They're now 2-4 in the ACC.

 

[18IsTheMan]

Must win at Arkansas on Saturday.

We alternate games between ranked and unranked teams for much of the rest of the season.

 

[Blues man]

Missed free throws were the least of my concerns last night, Maybe it's just me but turnovers seemed exceptionally ugly. And it seemed like every time we had one it would be followed by a missed shot on our next possession creating a 7-0 run for UGA because of the relative ease UGA was getting to the basket when our defense had a brain fart. Cant have a bad night in all aspects of the game and win any games. Hopefully that wont happen again. Now somewhere down the line we need to win one we're not supposed to.
