I seriously underestimated this Georgia Southern team. We're in for a ball game fellas.

forcing turnovers, but not scoring.
on the upside, at least GameTracker worked well for almost a whole 12 minutes before stalling
RE: Georgia Southern - LairDweller - 01-02-2013 08:35 PM
Rucker is 3 for 3 from the field to put UAB back up 18-16

Halftime, Blazers lead 25-22
cant shoot
10 made shots, 9 of them "in the paint"
add 5 FT's, leaving a mere 2 points on shots outside the lane

RE: Georgia Southern - Memphis Blazer - 01-02-2013 08:49 PM
UAB 25-22 at the half. Shooting 37%. 0-6 from three point range
Terence Jones has 7 points. Rucker and Alihodzic has 6.
Can't wait to find out how bad the officiating is from AttallaBlaze.

GSU looks like a Mike Davis coached team.
RE: Georgia Southern - Memphis Blazer - 01-02-2013 08:52 PM
CUSA is shining tonight.
We are struggling with Ga. Southern.
ECU has "come back strong" and now leads Campbell by 2.

Zero Bench points with 8 minutes to go in the game. Pitiful.

Don't be so negative. But yes we will need to work on things before Dayton
RE: Georgia Southern - Memphis Blazer - 01-02-2013 10:14 PM
If you think that is negative for a game thread, you are very new around here.
RE: Georgia Southern - tibber - 01-02-2013 10:15 PM
Heh.

It was great officiating: they let Rucker inbound the ball to himself.
RE: Georgia Southern - BlazerGreen - 01-02-2013 10:47 PM
Purifoy pretty much is the bench. Hoopy doesn't seem to there yet, either health-wise or experience. QT is shooting 28% from the field and 15% from 3pt line. Scottie is Scottie.
Some bad shooting but loved the hustle. Twelve steals and 23 turnovers for GSU. The offensive rebound and put-back by Rucker on Swing's miss late was pure toughness.
Go Blazers, Beat the Flyers
