OGT-Florida vs. Georgia 1/27/2024 12:00

Made great second half adjustments and rallied his team to a close OT loss on the road against a rival and this is your take on Mike White? A guy who was pretty much a perennial Tournament maker and usually won a game or two?

 

At my sons game. Checking in to say "whew".

 

I can see what you're saying, but I think we're better than you're giving us credit for here. Our depth is pretty good imo. We can't have 30 players on the roster. I do think we'll get a quad 1 win somewhere. Will it be enough? We'll see.

 

It all started with Riley throwing two lazy passes to Georgia the next time down shooting an ill advised three. Three scores for Georgia and the momentum. They need to work with him on passing, because right now he is a liability to this team. . So much talent but his passing is not something he has worked on.

 

At least you weren't cursing here on the board

 

To be fair, the Big 12 is loaded. lol

 

Yep. He got his team down 21 points in the second half. If they were down much less, he would have gotten a win.

 

This team has all the pieces but will go as far as Pullin takes us. He's the true alpha on this team. I wish Clayton was too but he has too many brain farts as you said

 

Micah H - 23 points (10-of-13 FG, 1-of-1 3pt, 2-of-3 FT, 17 Reb, 1 Stl, 0 Assts, 4 TO)
Z Pullin - 20 points (6-of-9 FG, 1-of-1 3pt, 7-of-8 FT, 7 Reb, 1 Stl, 8 Asst, 1 TO)
Richard - 18 points (8-of-14 FG, 1-of-7 3pt, 1-of-1 FT, 7 Reb, 3 Stl, 1 Blk, 3 Asst, 4 TO)
Clayton - 18 points (6-of-13 FG, 4-of-9 3pt, 2-of-2 FT, 1 Stl, 1 Blk, 2 Asst, 2 TO)
Condon - 10 points (3-of-6 FG, 4-of-4 FT, 4 Reb, 1 Blk, 5 Asst, 2 TO)

 

Kugel noticeably absent in crunch time.

 

How is Max Abmas still playing college ball? It seems like 8 years ago since he and Oral Roberts upset the Gators in the NCAAT.

 

Pullin and WR. If WR is on, we are dangerous.

 

Stressful finish, glad they were able to check the tape and reverse that goaltending charge

 

The best thing to come out of this game is the FILM - there are so many teaching points from this game it should fill and fuel an entire week's worth of practice.

 

I'd go back and get more Aussies. Condo is a freak at 19 or whatever. Just doesn’t seem like we are making them like that here in the states.

 

They just fell apart on both ends of the floor the last 5 minutes or so of the game. No defense, lazy passing, bad shots, etc. And I give Georgia credit for continuing to fight (almost literally!). But the Gators got it together in OT, make some great passes and hit their free throws. 17-20 from the charity stripe for the game. 2nd game in a row the free throw line saved the game for us. But 19 turnovers to their 9 almost did us in. And remember, 4 of Georgia's turnovers came in the first couple minutes of the game. Handlogten had his best game of the year and we sure needed it. They showed today how good they can be and how bad they can be. Got the win, though, and that W is all that counts for now.

 

yes true, when WR plays well we usually win

 

Riley needs to go watch high school basketball games & learn how to play the game from watching them. He seems to model his game off of NBA highlight clips.

 

I politely disagree, because of when things turned south and we COULD have easily lost in regulation, it was because there weren't the top 5 guys fresh and focused. We needed more minutes from others.

And again, if Richard does not have another really good game, this is a loss.

 

Melendez was en fuego. Without him, Georgia wasn't close.
I didn't follow the thread, but was anyone else impressed with he color announcer? She was on point and didn't talk too much like so many do.
