Wow! Another U of Tennessee team loses...
...this time, Pat Lowlife's Lady Vols...embarassing for UT fans, but I don't think we have any.

ATHENS, Ga. (AP)—Even with Georgia ranked in the top 10, there were still lingering doubts about whether the Lady Bulldogs truly belonged among the nation’s elite.

The skeptics got their answer Thursday night.

Pulling off one of its biggest victories in years, No. 8 Georgia won a down-and-dirty scrap with the school that all others in the Southeastern Conference measure themselves by. Porsha Phillips scored the go-ahead basket off a pass from Ashley Houts with 39 seconds remaining, then added two free throws that clinched a 53-50 upset of third-ranked Tennessee.

“The thing I’m most proud of is where our team has come from,” said Houts, one of three Georgia starters who played the entire 40 minutes. “This year, we focused on the word change. We focused on getting prepared for where we need to be. We wanted to be a team that could compete with the best teams out there. I think we’ve shown the potential to do that.”

4. Maybe it's too early in the morning to go fishing...
...but supposedly the fish are usually biting before the sun comes up.

Bear in mind I am from Conn. Go Huskies! (and note, it's not the "Lady Huskies")

16. Old Dominion here.
I'll NEVER forgive the Vols' Cindy Noble elbowing Inge Nissen in the face in the '81 Championship game. They also beat the crap out of Anne Donovan. The Forces of Righteousness won that day, despite the Vols' dirty play.

15. I hate Pat Slummit with the heat of a 1000 suns. I wish she'd join the Dallas Cowboys.
Really, I mean it.

17. I'm not a fan, either...the way she insuinated Geno was breaking
NCAA rules..."He knows what he did"...reminds me of typical Repuke tactics.

25. Geno is a scumbag
I think he probably did break the rules. I think he's a bully and a coward. And anything Summitt says about him was PROVOKED by him. He's the Bobby Knight of his sport.

26. What a load of crap...he's above reproach...he may have a big
mouth but calling him a bully and coward is the single most ridiculous thing ever posted here.

27. What has he done?
I'm looking and I can't find anything, a recruiting violation, a thrown chair, nothing. I find that he's often at odds with Pat Summitt through the media but that kind of thing is common in rivalries.

28. Pat Lowlife said this basically because she's pissed Maya Moore went
to UCONN...obviously paid off big for UCONN, and she doesn't like being out of the spotlight. An NCAA investigation into UCONN found nothing...how did the investigation start? The SEC requested it...gee, they did it on their own, with NO push from Pat, right?

22. This is disappointing
Edited on Sat Jan-23-10 11:21 PM by JonLP24
Arizona State has made 3 field goals in the last 17 minutes. They are taking desperation heaves with plenty of shot clock left. Still 9 minutes left down by 10 but this is not the kind of showing you like to see against their rivals at home. Hopefully they can get some offense to match the nation's #1 scoring defense(ASU has the #1 D) down the stretch so they can pull out their 6th straight victory against the Cats.

Sorry I know it's off topic.. I just needed to vent and a college basketball thread seemed like a place to do it. :evilfrown:
