Oh good gracious, do not be that fan that blames the refs for us being run out of the building. The refs don't dictate us being completely out-rebounded. The refs have no effect on Kerry Blackshear (an 18% 3 point shooter) from hoisting up 3's. The refs also aren't the ones allowing wide open threes.
Yea, look at the bright side.
If I had a choice of losing to both respectably, or winning against the Hoos and losing badly to Duke, I guess I'd pick this.
i just hope that nobody quits, and we come out second half with some fight in us.......i can see us making a run to get within like 15 or so......we've certainly proved we have the capability to do that....but i think this is too high of a hill to climb.....

I'm angry and I'm sitting on the couch!
Why does this game not surprise me?
I sort of expected this type of let down, but maybe not quite this bad.

Virginia Tech is also a national brand, by the way.
Ehhh not the way Georgia is. People in the west coast know how UGA is doing, kind of like how people on the east coast have a pulse for how USC is doing. I don't think the same can be said about VT, or many schools for that matter; there's less than 15 schools that are true national brands IMO.
The team is uninterested in defense because every time they play defense the officials call a foul. Then to further punish us, they also call a bogus offensive foul on us after Duke scores. These officials are garbage. I wasn't expecting to win, but I at least hoped for a clean game and loss. Thanks to these officials I am not sure we will stay within 30.
yeah...i was thinking that earlier about the emotion thing....mid first half Blackshear had a lay in off a great pass where he was all alone under the basket when we were only down by about 14 or so.....right after Plumlee had a dunk on the other end, and i'm sayin to myself....'dude! you gotta dunk that shit hard and fire the team up with some emotion......when you're getting killed like this you gotta get angry....and channel that anger into pure will to win.......
It's a national brand with great tradition, and you see guys from Virginia leaving the state to go to Tennessee, or go to Alabama. To me there's no reason not to come to Georgia also."
Frikkin' sellout. /s

I hope Shane does well, but not so much in recruiting Virginia and North Carolina. If he's successful and eventually gets some experience as a head coach somewhere, I would like to see him back at VT one day.
50-23 at half, nothing like seeing the other team go to their backups before halftime and still pull away
Good point.
Are you really a Plumlee if you aren't a buffoon? I think not!
Coach K still working the officials. I think Duke is getting their money's worth already, but what do I know
Couldn't agree more.
ZING
Agreed, especially on the shot selection!
Plumlee is a buffoon.
this is
gettingvery hard to watch.......
FIFY
As well as we played against UVA, we've played as bad if not worse against Duke. The team seems uninterested in playing defense (completely unable to effectively play a zone), the shot selection has been atrocious, and overall they're playing with absolutely no emotion. Not sure what happened between UVA and now but my lord.....
If you bring your A+ game against Duke you may have a chance. If you bring your C- game against Duke and they hit there 3's and get every call from the so called officiating crew, the game is over at the 5 minute mark.
Waiting for the Buzz haters to come out again and call for him to be on the hot seat next year....
this is getting very hard to watch.......

I'd love to see them come out in the second half and make it respectable.
