My first reaction was disappointment in seeing an opportunity for a win slip away, and I also thought in terms of "Here we go again".....

But the more I thought about it, I see it as an opportunity to build some confidence and momentum as we get closer and closer to CUSA play. Georgia is as well coached a team as there is in the SEC, they are still lacking depth and top to bottom talent as a result of the Felton Fiasco, but I think, in time, Mark Fox will have them competing regularly for SEC honors, and NCAA berths. I was very impressed with the way his players approach the game, and the discipline they have.

And we were there....close, but still there. I can't help but think that game is going to pay huge dividends for us as conference play starts.

Just wanted to get the board's insights as well. Thanks in advance.

We just didn't get off the bus ready to go. We lost that game in the first five minutes.

I don't think it will be by any stretch a bad loss. That's not a bad UGA team and they'll get better as the season goes on. We'll see, I guess.

We were not prepared for Georgia in the first half because of the quick turnaround from Jax State on Wed and the lost practice time. They had a week to prepare for UAB vs our 1 day (or less) for us. As the guys figured it out we outplayed them. We were the better team but could not overcome our early "discomfort". Think of this last week as the CUSA tournament. Many games in few days against different styles of play. I think it bodes well for UAB come tournament time.

I agree in that it won't be a 'bad' loss. But, we let one slip away. Would've looked good on the resume when $ec gets 4+ bids.

OTOH, Arizona St. is listing to starboard. If they lose anymore out of conference, ASU will have to win the PAC 10 to get in the NCAA tourney.
