This game was always about our rebounding. When we grabbed offensive boards, we tied the game and built a lead. We've stopped getting those over the last 10 minutes or so.

At half time, we rebounded about half our misses. Georgia has rebounded our last 10 misses in a row and eaten into our lead.

On our final 4 missed FGs of the game (2 in regulation and 2 in OT) we grabbed the offensive rebound each time and came away with second chance points.

When we grabbed our misses, that's when we'd make up ground or pull ahead.

Won with those three big stops in a row. It didn't require heroics. Someone should chart the margin before and after that stretch and show how well they denied the ball

Big props to Briscoe for his rebounding game, too

Well, to be fair.... We did give ourselves a lot of chances to get offensive rebounds.

Well, to be fair.... We did give ourselves a lot of chances to get offensive rebounds.

We still could've given them to Georgia though and wouldn't have won the game. We lost the lead in the second half when Georgia grabbed 10 of our misses in a row.

That's critical when you realize that there were 16 possessions where we grabbed an offensive board (one possession had two). We scored second chance points on 12 of those. So when we're able to rebound those, we were still scoring points after 75% of our missed shots. That's huge.
