Seriuosly, how does one stay positive when your team is absolutely getting their ass kicked in every way possible?

You don't have to stay positive. But certain people go out of their way to completely trash the team and just b**** constantly. There's a line that many posting in here have crossed, where it goes from normal frustration to just being a jackass about it.

Well this conference is dreadful so...

It's not that bad, probably not as good as last year but isn't horrible.

 

[BreatheUT]

I mean...Edwards is the projected #1 pick in the upcoming NBA draft.

They haven’t lost to any bad teams...we’ve also lost 5 straight at Georgia. They beat our best team at home last year.

Y’all acting like this is the worst team in the SEC or something...lol

No they didn't. Check your facts. We beat them in the one game we played by 46 at home. We let off the gas to it.

Nah they have the same record we do. They are exactly what there decors says they are at best!

 

[VolsSportsFan]

You guys should go ahead and bang. The sexual tension is palpable

Well he certainly can't quit me apparently. This is about the 5th time he's brought up what I said back in September.

 

[KnoxLandcruiser]

Have you planned your escape? Dawg fans are the worst...next to Gators of course.

It’s UGA, so Just ask them where the nearest transfer portal is cuz you need to get back to Knoxville.

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

Embrace the suck.

 

[CA_Vol]

We know we're going to struggle at times offensively, but we can't expect to play poorly on defense and expect to have a chance.

I was about to say the same. Barnes always has hard-nosed defensive teams. This effort is awful.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Are they ranked? I missed that part.

Are we?

We shot 25% against a WORSE South Carolina team...did you forget that we’ve been struggling to score since Turner left?

 

[tnvols72]

People can stop with the Ga being good.Without Edwards they are still not a very good team. Tn just seems to make a lot of players/teams look like they are top teams. Edwards gives them a chance in every game. The good thing is , he wont be there next year

 

[OWB]

I feel like UGA is paying players to come there. I mean, it’s Georgia basketball. Change my mind.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

HA! Best thing I've read today!

 

[OWB]

You still have your health?

 

[BreatheUT]

Fans are allowed to complain and give their opinions. Watching the Vols get taken to the woodshed by the Dogs is disheartening, especially when there has been limited tangible improvement outside of JJJ and Fulky.

Pons has improved but not enough.

James is a true freshman with too many expectations.

Vescovi is promising based on last few games.

Only positives I see right now.

 

[tnvols72]

Makes me wonder if Barnes has threw in the towel for this season. He has always had a defensive team regardless. Not dogging Barnes but they are bad on both sides

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Man, I'm here in the arena. This is freaking ugly. Gotta make some major adjustments.

God Bless You, stay strong!!

He had 20 points in the first half. Incredible.

 

[MeanOrange]

They remember the 46 pt. beat down we put on them last year.

 

[I4Vols]

I'm trying to stay calm. Bad match up type game for several of our players against a quick home team. Still, our D pretty poor and we missed too many under the basket shots.

 

[AllVol68]

I am convinced half of the people in this thread just started watching basketball two years ago.

I started following Vols basketball when Don Devoe was coaching. Yourself?

 

[golfballs]

Georgia has to cool off in the second half

 

[OWB]

He had 20 points in the first half. Incredible.

Kind of has that Meeks feel to it where he dropped 50+ on us that one year.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

We need the minutes and fouls right now. Otherwise I think he would be sitting.

Can he start fouling #5 for Georgia, like really hard!
GBO!!

 

[Freak]

First half box. Fulkerson only took one shot. Pons still cold. Only five turnovers. 4-14 from 3-point range.

 

[hUTch2002]

I tuned in to see how we are doing in what I thought was an important game against a solid UGA team. I’m glad I didn’t get to watch the first half.
