Let’s go Defense…gotta stop the inside points and 2nd efforts

Also, boxing out during FTs needs some work too…. guess I complimented the improvement of boxing out too soon

The white boy for tn is legit. If he’s not as hot as he is, they would have been in real trouble

Have to get better at closing out games that was a complete failure to end it

This is not going to go our way but this team is real. We will win games that everyone believes we will lose. Go Dawgs!

Do we have a better option than Melendez? He seemed to struggle here and against Missouri. I didn’t watch Arkansas.

Agreed. Annoying, but it felt like after a great effort we lost that game more than TN won it

3 was a beast and turned on beast mode. Props to Knect. Played big.

Good game Dawgs. Overall a great game. Need to work on boxing out, rushing shots when we dribble in early on the shot clock and also FTs.

Great turnout by the fans and look to see how we bounce back this week. Exciting times ahead.

Go Dawgs

I have felt optimistic like Charlie Brown (UGA) kicking the football while Lucy(errybody else) always pulls it away and I bust my arse since Harrick left

Always see a lot to be positive about but it blows up. Love this team but the last 5 min was a mess...

Hate the results (vs top 5 team) but they were beatable at home

I'll be there watching Tues/Wed night and pulling for them as always...

Yeah… that was tough to watch. We were drilling them most of the 2nd half. Being outscored 10-0 down the stretch was brutal. Russell was also horrifically bad today. IDK what BS we have running with him with his back 40 feet from the basket, but whatever it is, it needs to be burned. Terrible shot selection in the 1st half with poor defense. You gotta think, if we would have even played a decent game we win today. There were good moments but overall, didn’t play well. There is some silver lining. I expect to lose the next couple of games on the road with a good chance against LSU to get back to .500 in league play.

Sucked, but hopefully get some positives from it. We can hang with anyone if we don’t beat ourselves.

We played average and almost be a top 5 team. We’re definitely getting better. It’s a good feeling (kinda) walking out of the stadium knowing the better team (today) lost. If we can somehow get any type of post play, we’re a tournament team.

Yea it seems this team is getting better and better. Tchewu needs to dominate the paint. After a great game last game, I would have liked to see him take over late.

1 point in the last 5 minutes is not gonna get it done.

I almost felt like we stopped running our offense for a bit and were trying to take the clock down once we got up 78-70. Oh well, good learning lesson for the team and hopefully they can continue playing well.

Gotta disagree with you here. For the most part, we played a helluva game. UT was the one that was struggling with turnovers and shooting 3s instead of taking inside like they did at the end.
UT is a much better team overall, but we hung with them, had a good lead, but lost.

These boys are improving every game and I’m really excited. I have no problem with how this game ended considering everything.

I believe this loss will be more important than a win….looking for White to have these boys rebound and ready to play on the road. I think we will be a bubble team with a decent chance of getting into the tournament this year and really excited about it.

Few things for the young guys to learn from and improve.

Let’s go Dawgs

Definitely a tough matchup tonight on the road. We will need to play our best defense of the year to keep us in it. It’s a winnable game, but I would put it in the L column as far as expectations. I’m interested to see how White gets them back after Saturday. That was emotional game that we almost won and ended our win streak. If we can keep it close with a chance to win at the end, I would consider it a great outing.

Haven't won in Columbia since 2015/2016 season by my count.

1-9 vs the Cocks past ten matchups overall. Would be a really big win for the boys.
