How can we beat Georgia tonight?

Post by charlestonalum »

Serious question - what needs to happen? Georgia and SC and Vanderbilt will probably battle each other to stay out of the SEC cellar. Having lost the close one at home to SC we could use a road win tonight. Maybe the football championship euphoria will have them dazed.

It will be a bit interesting to see how many Dawg fans show - as they are having their national championship celebration (full capacity) at Sanford Stadium as I type.

Here's how we'll know if we are back on the right track...

1) less than 13 turnovers
2) Wright scores 10 or more points
3) Pippen and Thomas limit personal turnovers to under 4 combined
4) Team shoots 45% or better
5) QMB avoids early fouls

We do these things, I think we win

Not sure if Chatman is playing...that's an important key too.

Good list: we have to rebound even with them, have a lot of points off turnovers and I would say 4 TO is ok for Pippen, but no more. The way he dishes to players who fumble the ball adds to his hugh turnovers.

I believe CJS said Chatman wasn’t playing against UGA.

Hold them to around 40% shooting and at least break even in rebounding.

One thing is to get the damn refs calling it even. Pippen gets a shoulder in the back trying to catch a pass and when he falls the ref calls him out of bounds. Then Wight gets called for a charge when the dawg defender flops.

Defense with points after turnover won it.
