AUDub 11,149 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 We outrebounded them 41-35 with our starting 5 out and his backup only playing 17 minutes due to fouls, a wing player having to act as his emergency backup (and owning that s***) and a 6’3 dude at 4. I seriously thought Hall was going to own the paint tonight. I was wrong. Very wrong. Chuma Okeke is a shining golden god. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehighfan 1,240 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Just read a couple of articles on the game on al.com. Avery Johnson had, in my opinion, a great quote. "They played more desperately than we did." Even the rabid love for the bams media, they all pretty much agreed they stunk up the place. I'm glad to say Auburn had everything to do with that.

If you aren’t going to honor the sportsmanship portion then don’t give the trophy. Next time we lose to them I say we just keep the trophy. If it’s any consolation, they can’t sing their own fight song past the first 5 words either. I don’t know how AU SGA presidents do at singing there’s, but I’d be fine with doing away with that part. Present trophy, celebrate, and everyone sing the fight song. The extra humiliation isn’t really necessary, and making someone sing a song they don’t really know isn’t fun. You know they aren’t practicing all week in the shower to get it just right like Tanya did for her Sunday morning testimony in song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So excited to go to the game on 3/3! The SEC network replays some of them, but you'll have to scan for the times and probably use your DVD. Late hours seem to be their most frequent time.

Also, pretty classless that she broke tradition and didn’t sing our fight song; but again, she is a bammer, so what should we expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt that way about their whole team tonight. That’s rare for me and a uat team. Even with the crowd yelling 'Dirty Mop" every time he had the ball.

triangletiger 1,599 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 To be honest, I don't really like the taunting of the opposing team's players by our fans. I never really liked the "Sit down; you suck!' thing, or the 'airball' thing. The opposing team's players work their butts off just like our players do. But I guess fans will be fans, and now it's just part of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I never understand why kids who were friends in HS all of a sudden are supposed to hate each other because they chose separate universities? Thought the young woman did just fine....clapped in time with the War Eagle song.....that's enough for me at least. And nice that the trophy is back home.

But I guess fans will be fans, and now it's just part of the game. To be honest, that is part of the home court/field advantage. These guys are big time college athletes getting their education (and probably more at UAT) paid for. That is all part of the game. They have to have thick skin and mental toughness. The game ain't for sissies. I know it seems classless, but the players probably can't even hear it or it doesn't bother them. If it does bother them, they may want to pick a different sport. As far as the fans go, as long as there are not racial slurs or bad language, I'm good with them hammering any opponent (not just UAT) and being as ruthless as possible.

Gibson SG 88 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 And as far as the UAT SGA president, she knew when she either ran for or was appointed to that position that this was all part of it. You don't want to get booed, don't become the SGA president. I thought she handled it well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
