Boogs v UGA
- Thread starter Denim Vest
- Start date
Props to Bryce on finally figuring out layups tonight. Someone that athletic has to be better at them than he’s been all year. Seemed like he figured out to use his body around the rim tonight
We outscored uga by 28 pts in the 2nd half, and more than doubled our first half output, 26/53. If this team can put 2 halves together consistently, we'll start blowing teams out like the 99-00 team did.
Felt so good to whip UGA after last year’s meltdowns. I’m boogin hard. Great Saturday cause my fantasy epl squad whipped ass too
100% correct and we still have the biggest pt differential in the league by about 4 pts. Around 13 per. Kind of amazing.
I just went over to tbb and told him he was needed on the REAL basketball forum. My days are numbered there, but I ain't going out in as BLAZE of Glory. Gonna slow bleed them over there.
Losing my shat. That’s what I was doing. When we play really bad I turn the TV off and listen to the radio. I don’t think we’ve ever won when I’ve done that. I had given up and was starting to wonder if we could cobble together enough wins to make the Dance. And it takes a lot for me to feel that kind of quit.
I’m darn glad Bruce and the boys aren’t nancies like me.
This was the most important win of Bruce’s tenure. Not the “best.” Maybe not even top 10 best. But most important because what a loss could’ve meant. I gave up. I shouldn’t have. I feel great shame. But thank God I was wrong.
Edit: Thanks for paging me @FormerlyKnownAsSOLLY.
Bro, you need to take a big internet Xanax that is the Greg. We don’t freak out over here
YORE THE MAN!! Welcome
Some halftime Greg quotes
Just calmness on The Greg with the occasional lashing of a youngster that needs it
I’ve never been able to not freak out about basketball. Except listening on radio. I think it’s bevause when I was a kid, I listened to games on the radio (because in the 90s, Auburn basketball was never on tv basically), and wasn’t quite as insane. So I didn’t freak.
But I can’t watch us suck and not lose it.
Well not all of us. I just quit without the freaking out part. But I never change the channel or turn the tv off. I just sit and watch while sulking.
I’m a terrible fan because I’m still expecting the team to collapse at any given time. I just can’t fathom AU sustaining success in anything and I blame Gus for that.
Yep. No blabbering about how there was no chance for a comeback. Just some mild frustration but a real understanding that AU was very much still in the game
Made the mistake of boogin on tbb this game. That'll never happen again. Those ouldes just don't understand the value of a good halftime we suck post to motivate the team.
Boog Board pretty funny right now. Bassman went all @Ser Sweater Vest in the first half and is pissed he is being mocked. I mean rustled bad
The Greg is perfect for basketball season. I hated the bunker during games and Bmatt posting every play is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen.
Yeah he pulled a Rice.
“I didn’t think it was wrong when I said it, so I wasn’t wrong”
If I could’ve pulled that on tests in high school, I wouldn’t have graduated with a 2.2 GPA.
would make me the happiest little boog in the whole wide world

Gotta do desktop view to see +/-
They are doing a $3M locker room upgrade but can’t find pics. Should be more like $30M for the premiere program in Boogville.
DUDE I looked over there & there were like 38 threads out of 40 on the front page alone. That crap don't happen on the GREG. Or it better not. Glad to see you her tho
Yeah, you know when you see The Bruce put the 6'2 300lb white guy that couldn't out jump a turtle, boogs done boogt da fugg out on some betches
I can't get that to load. Is that like one plus for each positive stat (point(s), assists, rebounds, charges taken, etc) and one minus stat (missed FG, FT, TO, foul, etc)?
EDIT: Just saw go to desktop view
Damn skippy he is. Folks round the SEC may as well get used to the boogs boogin. They thought the bama loss was it for us. That AU would fold like a cheap lawn chair.
Fact is, boogs playt their absolute worst game and could've still won had 2 or 3 trips to the stripe been successful. Not a moral victory at all, just saying it wasn't a sign of things to come and boogs were not exposed as imposters like a lot of mediots around the league said.
At least I take it like a champ when I bitch out
Agreed. Basketballs is different that the Hut Hut (you should know). A loss in basketball can actually help you improve on your game, and a loss in footballs can destroy your season. I like them both, but the basketballs can be more intense and it's easier to keep up with for my wife (or so she thinks). "Just shoot the ball and you make it or not". She will actually watch a basketball game with me, no matter who is playing
Good grief. Bassman just started a new thread calling out people for calling him out in his 1st thread.
So much lulz
So much lulz
+/- is simply the scoring differential while a specific player was on the court
so, if a guy is subbed into the game and we’re up 11, and when he comes out we’re up 8, he was a -3 during those minutes... so, maybe we win by 10, but when Chuma was on the court we were +16, and when Desean was on the court we were -1...
it’s not a perfect statistic... but gives an interesting perspective on how effective a player was during a specific game... 5 man unit combinations is usually more telling, but especially in college the sample size is far too small to use it as gospel
He clearly doesn’t have a life. No one should act like that. It’s not like he’s normally right about things.
Completely missed this one gang. Thankful for the GREG and reading these threads lol
I wanted to go into this a little more and talk some things out, mainly to talk it through for myself...
Horace seems to be growing into a leadership role... this is admitted armchair psychology - but he seems to be far more outgoing and vocal than Mac in general... he’s channeling his aggressiveness far better this year - and has gone from a total wildcard just as likely to do something crazy and hurt the team, to a very reliable piece...
on the possession above I mentioned, he pushed 3 different teammates further out to extend the defense, or into better position... 1 was Davion who he pushed out further at the top of the key, and not sure who the other 2 were, but it was on different screen actions and switches as we handed guys off to teammates on cutters or off ball screens... he was barking orders and calling out help defense the entire possession, and even after giving up an offensive rebound, still kept us alive and fighting on that possession, ultimately getting Davion into position to jump Maten’s screen and fight over it drawing the offensive foul
it was a really good 30-40 seconds of Horace taking complete control of the team defensively, and just not something I’m sure Mac is ready to do yet... Mac was better today, and I’m wondering if he’d been a little under the weather, because the energy just hadn’t been there lately... but I also wonder if he’s just wearing down against bigger, more talented guys in conference play... and if part of the slow starts recently have been because we’re missing that edge Horace gives us as an anchor defensively
it’s a good problem to have - wondering if your backup center needs more minutes... and we actually played some Horace and Mac together because of the Chuma & Desean foul trouble, which I think we can get by with against limited offenses... I just want to give Horace a ton of credit for his improvement and growing leadership and little things that won’t show up on the stat sheet
