    And….we make THAT!!!!!! LMFAO

    If you told me before the game that the Holes would have 37 at the half, I would have danced for joy.

    Well… at least Coach GOTT is PISSED…did ya’ll hear that ??

    Hate to say it but Wood is a major liability right now. He’s getting worked on D and can’t get free.

  4. 1.21 Jigawatts 01/26/2012 at 8:29 PM #

    You can’t get free if you don’t try.

    I love the interview with Gott at half, we will come out in the second half with a vengance. GO PACK!!!!

    As was discussed earlier on the other thread, it’s all in how we react to a VERY hostile environment. They’re finding out what hostile is right about now. How will they react?

    I don’t expect to win, but as Rick said above, if we don’t fold and at least put up a fight It’ll be a good thing to see as far as where this team can go.

    sunspot theory not working right now. Sun is on the other side of the planet. will get them next time

  8. 1.21 Jigawatts 01/26/2012 at 8:30 PM #

    Well we all know what we have to do now. Change something. Like maybe the channel?

  9. BJD95 01/26/2012 at 8:30 PM #

    Exactly right, Rick. That’s why I don’t like the matchup. We can’t leverage any contrasts. And we can’t just magically get better.

    Here’s where the more bud comes into play.

    I can’t believe we are worse than the officials.

    Zo did not drive to the basket once, Scott did not score, Howell might as well not have played.

    The whole team is shook by the crowd. Nothing left to worry about fellas, you’re already getting your ass kicked. Man up.

  11. wolfonthehill 01/26/2012 at 8:33 PM #

    I think we set high screens to free everyone up for a three – except Wood. WTF?

    Totally outclassed in the first half…

  12. gtspack 01/26/2012 at 8:33 PM #

    Gott, let’s see what you are about.

  13. bill.onthebeach 01/26/2012 at 8:34 PM #

    ^LUSH …PASS THE DAMN BEER OVER NOW !!!

    Key to the first half…

    Did not hear ONE SHOE SQUEAK the entire twenty minutes. That sums it all up from here.

  14. tuckerdorm1983 01/26/2012 at 8:34 PM #

    learning experience. We will face them again and go over to Cameron. Rome was not built in a day. This was about what I expected, but not what I had hoped for. Maybe we can get it under 10 in the 2nd half.

  15. mak4dpak 01/26/2012 at 8:35 PM #

    Just maybe, I said just maybe we will come out the second half a play ball like Gott taught them to play. After his comments, they better listen, 22% shooting. That is ridiculous!

  16. Rochester 01/26/2012 at 8:35 PM #

    Worst shooting night of the season. Worst shot selection of the season. No coincidence there. We’re not moving the ball. Guys are either putting it up right into the shot blockers or bricking it from outside. Zero transition so far for us. Mucho transition for them. This is uglier than I expected.

    Good news is their entire front court will be gone next year.

  17. Wulfpack 01/26/2012 at 8:35 PM #

    Well, if this score holds up which is most likely, Saturday’s UVA game is the tilt of the year. Win, and we stay in tourney contention. Lose, and we’re pretty much screwed. You MUST beat good teams.

  18. TheAliasTroll 01/26/2012 at 8:36 PM #

    hopefully they got TOB on speaker phone in the locker room at half to give a pep talk

  19. Wufpacker 01/26/2012 at 8:36 PM #

    Hey, if you’re getting a beatdown like this, does that constitute a safety issue? And thusly, would it be within Gott’s rights to go ahead and take his team off the floor early?

    I kid, I kid.

  20. Dogbreath 01/26/2012 at 8:38 PM #

    I am 100% certain Kendall Smith would have put up more of a stat line than what Wood just gave us. Jogging down the floor and parking it in the corner ain’t what we need, Son.

  21. Rochester 01/26/2012 at 8:39 PM #

    At least Dukie V is having a good time signing autographs.

  22. Wufpacker 01/26/2012 at 8:41 PM #

    In DirecTV commercial lingo….we just woke up in a ditch.

  23. MISTA WOLF 01/26/2012 at 8:41 PM #

    How many shots hit the backboard and not the rim?

  24. Whiteshoes67 01/26/2012 at 8:43 PM #

    I’m tired of Richard HOwell, a freaking beast of a man, using the finger roll. Take the ball up with some power

  25. Wufpacker 01/26/2012 at 8:43 PM #

    I was open minded about what may or may not happen in this game tonight. I was prepared for an ass kicking, but was hopeful for the upset.

    I did NOT expect to say that we are LUCKY to only be down 14.
