Georgia Bulldogs v. Florida Gators Basketball Bloodletting Comment Thread
Florida Gators at Georgia Bulldogs, Feb 25, 2012 4:00 PM EST
So, um, yeah. The Florida Gators are a projected four seed in the NCAA Tournament. Mark Fox's Georgia Bulldogs, despite showing occasional signs of life, are spiraling toward a losing record.
Today's men's basketball game at Stegeman Coliseum tips off at 4:00 p.m. Eastern on the SEC Network. We're going to lose whip their tails, and it's going to stink be awesome, but, if you can stomach it, then, by all means, please join in the conversation in the comments below.
(Note: Slightly edited after the game by a euphoric Vineyarddawg.)
Go 'Dawgs!

Ok fellow dawgs
Just letting you guys know that I am playing my own made up drinking game right now. I was playing power hour ( a shot of beer every minute for an hour) while I was watching the Accenture Match Play Championship and killing time before the Dawgs tipped off with the Gayturds. Now I’m taking a half shot (of beer) for every free throw, a full shot for every two point field goal, and a shot and a half for every 3 pointer. However, I have modified my rules to also include a shot every time the gators turn the ball over or miss a three which is beginning to make me have a lot of fun :)
BUI is a dangerous activity, swhguitar74...

JK I’m not that intoxicated yet but just so y’all know I read this site everyday once in the morning after breakfast before I leave to go do my student teaching and another time in the afternoon during my planning period. I’ll know when I start to get to that level where I don’t need to be typing on this blog. I’m a big fan of you guys so I figured I would try to join in on the fun today!
/seriously, I respect the no profanity rule you guys try to implement here. We hold ourselves to a higher standard than some of the other blogs i read (gators and barners blogs) haha

We are actually playing solid basketball and playing like a typical mistake-prone UGA team so far. THATS how this is happening
Florida
is missing a few key players (see Tscott2015’s comment) and were horrible from beyond the arc early. We had 24 points in the paint to their 10 in the first half. KCP had 14.

Anybody know where and when it will be on air again (if at all)?
At least I did have the pleasure of being there. KCP’s exclamation-point/slam at the end finally silenced the obnoxious gator (I know…redundant) behind me. The one thing I didn’t hear from him was any effort to keep his little gator child from kicking the back of our seats.
It all worked out in the end. That was fun.
Congrats on being there for a great upset!
It’s always a great day when we beat Florida.
You know, I actually turned down free tickets to this game. I usually take defeats in stride (especially when they’re not in football)… but I just handle it much more poorly when we lose to Florida, and I literally thought we had no chance of winning.
