Blue Ribbon magazine's UGA tidbits & prognosis
Posted: Wed Mar 19, 2008 8:29 pm
Just got their tourney special, and my only gripe is that the font is so friggin' small, it's hard on we old guys!
Anyway-
UGA has 3 double-digit scorers-Sundiata Gaines (14.8), Billy Humphrey (12.2) and Terrance Woodbury (10.8).
They're only shooting .428 from the floor and .329 from the arc, BUT their opponents are only shooting .427 and .314.
They only shoot .680 from the FT line, but their opponents have only shot .610, shockingly.
Blue Ribbon says their best hope is a low-scoring, ugly defensive game.
Gaines, a 6'1" guard, leads the team in rebounding (6.1rpg), assists and steals in addition to scoring.
This could be like pulling teeth tomorrow, and X is going to have to gut it out and execute if they want to move on.
Blue Ribbon does pick X to win, but then has Purdue prevailing on Saturday.
