We have to win this game.   If we do things the right way, I think we can win it.  I expect Devan to start at PG again.  We have a size advantage, so we need scoring from our post guys.  I would love to see Couisnard, Bryant and Wilson play and play well.   Hoping for the best.

 
Yeah that's for sure. Win and win and win.

 
If we don’t start pushing the ball more than one foot inside the 3 point line, we lose this one badly.  WAAAAAY to many shots from behind the arc for absolutely no reason, when we have guys wide open at the basket.

USC is doing exactly what it needs to do for UGA to win.   We are fouling  UGA every time down the court and UGA is making ALL their FT.

Ugly, ugly, ugly inside play.  UGA now has an 11 point advantage from the FT line alone.  Here we go again…

Yup.  Other than that last drive to the basket by Cousinard, we have not one single guard who has even tried to step more than 1 foot inside the arc.  Pathetic.  We’ve settled for being an outside shooting team, and aren’t even attempting to get Woodley or Gray the ball down low.

As far as I'm concerned, if USC loses this game,it is the final nail in Frank's coffin.   I want him GONE!!!!!  And I'd fire him now.  I wouldn't wait until the end of the season.

They really do look bad so far.  Not sure if poorly coached or low on talent.   Probably both.  UGA is bad and right now we’re worse.

I'm wondering at this point if there isn't something internal going on with the team.  This is flat out pitiful.

 
We should be playing zone to keep from fouling.

Let’s be honest, we’re inept defensively b/c we foul UGA every time they touch the ball.  They attempted 22 shots (making 9) and have 22 FT attempts as well (making 21 of 22).

We’re inept OFFENSIVELY b/c we took almost as many 3s as UGA took total shots (we attempted 17 3 pointers), making only 3 of them.  Other than Cousinard, we didn’t have a single guard that drove the ball to the basket the ENTIRE HALF, and Cousinard only drove it 2x.

the lone bright spot is our going 9-10 from the FT line.

 
Those threes we keep bricking are a thing of beauty.  Maybe they’ll start to fall if we shoot enough of them.
