One possession, one horrible turnover. Jesus we look horrible like we did Thur.

[whosyourdawgy]

Just got uverse and no clue where that was. Got it though. Txs

[Coach34]

Shit- we played well Thur

[TheRef]

Fred Thomas decided to start scoring. Has all 7 points and is going to the line for three more.

[msstate7]

Good to see Fred come out strong after bad game thurs

[msstate7]

Fred with 10. Wow

[TheRef]

Fred Thomas 10
Vanderbilt 9

[RougeDawg]

If we make half of our easy layups/12" shots, we beat florida. I call that playing bad when you can't make the easiest of easy plays.

We are nowhere near the ball for offensive rebounds. WTF is going on? Good thing Vandy is horrible.

[Coach34]

We werenever going to beat Fla- we played as well as we could play. A couple of gimmes should have gone down to make it closer, but we werent going to win it

[preachermatt83]

Cunningham looks so ackward trying to shoot the ball

[Coach34]

I hate SEC officials- holy shit

[whosyourdawgy]

At half, ray needs to tell Sword and Bloodman we are wearing maroon today

[Political Hack]

Fred needs to get his legs underneath him. We should out a ball in his hands and make him jump and touch the backboard with it 1,000 times every day over the offseason. He gets his legs underneath him and those hot streaks will become the norm.

[mcdawg]

21 points at half. 11 turnovers and 10 field goals.

[msstate7]

This is f'n embarrassing. I don't expect this team to win every game, but I do expect them to show up mentally.

[Political Hack]

we haven't made a FG in 8 minutes.

[Political Hack]

glad I could get that 3 for us.

[msstate7]

we haven't made a FG in 8 minutes.

How has ray not called a timeout as vandys lead continues to grow?

[Coach34]

Road in the SEC

[RougeDawg]

Pathetic. Get some momentum and turn it over being out of control. I'm seeing some glaring coaching issues in this one. Not following shots, not blocking out on free throws, and out of control some posessions.

What are these ****ing refs calling? Is this what College BBall has become?

[MetEdDawg]

We are somehow outrebounding Vandy 25-24 in this game. I'm amazed by that. Got a chance to cut it to 3 here.

[Coach34]

I'm trying to figure out how we are traveling just standing there?

[msstate7]

Difference in this game is our huge scoring drought. Really think ray let the vandy lead expand way too much with no timeout.

[RougeDawg]

Too many mistakes at critical junctures. We have to start making more of the point blank shots. Leaving a ton of points on the court every game.

ETA: As soon as I post, Sword misses an uncontested layup and Ware misses a followup dunk on the rebound.

[Red Sox Dawg]

They are calling nothing on Vandy here in the last couple of minutes.

[Quaoarsking]

Is it just me, or has Craig Sword really sucked lately?

[Coach34]

inexperience by Ware- should have slammed it instead of trying to lay it up

[Thick]

Chicken has looked like shit today. We can't win when he plays like this!

[Coach34]

Is it just me, or has Craig Sword really sucked lately?

teams are not letting him drive- until he can make a 15 ft jump shot he is ****ed

[Quaoarsking]

Sword has 26 points total over the last 4 games, including a 36% clip on Free Throws.

[HailState39110]

I didn't know we've lost now 13 straight true road games until the announcers mentioned it about 8 times during the game.

[Joe Schmedlap]

SEC basketball in general is embarrassingly bad and certainly the bottom feeders of the conference are an abomination.

[CJDAWG85]

The problem today was every time we got close late, we'd get the stop we needed on D and then turn it right back over on the offensive end. If Sword wants to be the leader of this team, he needs to step up now. This team needs a leader.

[Dawg61]

Is it just me, or has Craig Sword really sucked lately?

Sword has been awful ever since Fred started playing better. Problem is that Fred only got slightly better while Sword has dropped off a cliff into an ocean of suck. I didn't see Bear Wilson on the bench today. Is he still giving it a shot? I think Moore should get some minutes. It's not like Davis, Bloodman or Cunningham are any better than him.
