Georgia men’s basketball stayed perfect Monday night, defeating Florida A&M 87-57 at Stegeman Coliseum to extend its winning streak to five games. The Bulldogs improved to 32-0 against non-conference opponents at home under head coach Mike White. Georgia has now held three of their first five opponents to under 60 points

Muskies 10.5 pt. Dogs on a neutral court against a mediocre team. Just further evidence of how far we have slipped. I know I am being negative which is not my nature but I am so disappointed with our team. Hopefully we will come together as the season progresses. Go X!

Georgia wins 92-75. take the Bulldogs to cover and take the over of 165.5.

we will show some fight for awhile but Georgia will pull away with it, most likely at end of first half and into beginning of 2nd half.

[muskieman]

that was a bad call. Georgia player pushes, and X gets called

[muskieman]

Boro goes for a dunk, one guy blocks, but the inside guy grabs Boro's arm, no call. I wonder if these are SEC refs.

[muskieman]

we was robbed. Refs have a strange time to swallow the whistle

[Kevin Reilly]

Damn we should have got that one. Great move by Pitino going to the zone in the second half. Didn't like Wright with the ball with 9 seconds to go. He is not athletic enough or quick enough to get a good look on his own. Great games by Milicevic and Carrol. We have no inside defenders. I don't think we can play much better than we did tonight. Filip played very well too. Georgia had 39 points off the bench and we had 4 points. Close but no cigar.

[muskieman]

I think Robinson is in the doghouse with 1 minute of playing time, and I doubt it was a full minute.

[skyhops]

He just isn’t coordinated and has no motor. He was third string center for UVA and we gave him almost a mill. N’Diaye is awful too

[XU_2011]

Another dreadful shooting night for Messina-Moore and the centers are not much help, but an inspiring effort.

Lack of playmaking limits this team's ceiling. Filip is a good "glue guy" but he's having to do a lot given the shortcomings in the frontcourt and with ball handling.
