I saw a ton of rejected shots,  we were one of the best defensive teams in the country last year, and we had a huge size advantage on them.

So yeah....good defense.

Not a good game by us and still won by 13....Ugly but a win.

Our players need to understand they are now the hunted and will get the best shot from teams we are playing.

It was an ugly game, but Ga Tech is a pretty good team in spite of not being ranked, and they somehow managed to get a guy eligible on the day of the game.  The ACC is 30-0 so far this year.

I was at the GaTech game and it was a horrid shooting night, especially at the foul lane.  We missed at least 5 front ends of one and ones and overall the team was like 20 out of 33 on the foul line (which is uncharacteristic of the team last year).  Also they were cold from the floor shooting about 40% or less so this was one of those "perfect storm" ugly games. 

If UT hits just half of the foul shots they clunked they would have won by 25.

Yes Williams was only 10 of 16 and he normally is about 90%.

Wow...did you see that Bama's bb team got beat by Northeastern last night. I thought their coach was supposed to be turning them around.
