I agree. I HATE ANYTHING THAT ISNT TENNESSEE ORANGE. Come to think of it, I hate every team but Tennessee. If it's not Tennessee, I see pee pee on it.:D

Who said i was talking to you? Fans that say "Kentucky will beat us by 50", "we are officially out of the sec east race". That's fairweather. I'm smart enough to realize that we're playing a pretty good team and teams don't always bring their game to the floor. Playing in an environment like this doesn't help either.

I admit they are overreacting, but I understand it. I don't mean any offense to you, so I'm sorry if it sounded that way. I just totally understand why some see doom and gloom after a disappointing blowout loss to a team that we should beat. I should learn to just stay off of internet forums after bad games because fanaticism and rationality are not things that go together for me. Good thing this one was decided very early...

and that sums up GEORGIA FANS 110% CLASS-LESS.... shaking their keys in the air with under a minute and they are 9-8 1-3 in SEC play now... this is the reason I REFUSE to ever go back to ATHENS for ANYTHING... total jerks!

And many think we're classless for defending stupid ass Kiffin's actions for a year.

The insult to injury is that, only down 14 with :58 left, we didn't try to force them to the foul line. Maybe we would've fouled out too many to keep playing, but at least that's what fighters do

Or we could end up losing by even more

Something tells me though unless they absolutely tank the rest of the season, they're still making the tourney

Just saying we can't start losing to the Georgia's. That is a BAD loss because it's one of the easiest road games we will see. I'm going to TBA when we play them. I can't wait. We need to be rowdy because I still say Georgia is not a good basketball team.

Georgia can hang with anyone? Come on now. Where did they get their players? Juco guys or what?

It doesn't matter where they got them. They have played two top ten teams in the SEC. They blew one out of the building and took Kentucky down to the wire at Rupp. I'd call that the ability to hang with anyone. They CAN do that.

Yeah, but those late points don't matter nearly as much as giving up when you're measuring the sting of losing. Given the way the game went, I would've rather have had the difference go from 14 to 25 in the last minute if we were fighting, rather than keep it to 14 by giving up.

You are right about the seeding. They can't lose games like this. You have to get a good seeding and bracket to have the best chance to advance. Pearl is always talking about that. Look what happened last year when we got a crappy seed. Man for man Georgia does not have the players we have. That's why this blowout loss stinks so bad. Overall talent isn't anywhere close to ours.

It was nasty. They could be favored to win it all now imho. I know Arkansas isn't exactly elite, but wow. UK did whatever they wanted that game.

Kentucky has is all right now. Inside, outside, and probably the best PG in the nation. The only thing that might hurt them in the tourny is their youth. Can you imagine if Meeks would have stayed?

You do know that once they are in the tourney that they seed the teams based on resume right?
Click to expand...

and you do know that our resume is still pretty decent, with the high rpi and the kansas victory - which at the very worst this could cancel out, but i'd argue that it really doesn't completely either - unless he just flat out fall through january and february we're going to have a really good record and get a pretty good seed

we were never going to get a number 1 or 2 though if that's what you were getting at/ going for

I hope Georgia loses the rest of their games, just so I will feel better about things. I don't like the looks of that coach. He reminds me of someone you see registered on the sex offender list. LOL He has an odd look to him and it stinks that we loss to that goober.

Should a team ranked #8 be blown out by a bad team?
