It is just a simple fact...we have ZERO interior presence and even the worst SEC teams are exploiting it.


If the rest of the SEC was oozing with inside presence I lend a bit more credence to that. Of the 3 winnable games we've heretofore lost, only Auburn had any real semblance of an inside presence in Chubb who is just barely servicable because he's got 4 years of experience. JOB3 still struggled, but he broght more inside presence tonight than anyone Georgia had.

When Georgia switched their zone to that 3-2 look, I don't think we got a good shot thereafter.
The fact that we looked like we'd never seen a match-up zone before and waited for the t.v. timeout and 4 wasted trips down the court and a couple of costly turnovers before we adressed it ticked me off a bit.

We knew this going in...it shouldn't shock anyone at this point. Help is supposed to be on the way though, so wait til next year I suppose.


I knew we wouldn't be a tournament team. But I absolutely think we can get better out of what we have to this point. Very disappointing.

This. It's BB 101 that you spread them out & attack a match-up zone from the weak side, send cutters away from the ball and throw it over the top.

We've seen match up zone defenses for the last three games and seem to have no idea how to exploit it.
