WIN: Entire
team helps
seal victory
> From Paco I
off an aggressive Buffalo offense in
the second half to secure another
victory in the closing minutes of the
game.
“That was a real hard-fought
game,” head coach Mark Fox said.
“We beat a very well-coached
Colorado team, and I was extremely
impressed with their team and the
effort that they gave, and that’s a
really good win for our team.”
It is the second in as many games
this year that Georgia overcame a
second-half deficit, following a 72-70
win over the upset-minded
Mississippi Valley State Nov. 12
the first regular season game with
out injured star forward Trey
Thompkins.
Along with junior Gerald
Robinson, who led the Bulldogs
with 21 points, the Bulldogs had
two other players in double figures
for the night. Travis Leslie scored
19, while Jeremy Price added 17.
Leslie was missing for the final
three and half minutes of the game
after fouling out, which became a
common theme for both teams
throughout the evening. Georgia
had 26 fouls, while Colorado (1-1)
ended with 30.
Asa result, both teams spent
plenty of time at the tree-throw line,
which became the root of the
Bulldogs’ troubles they were only
27-for-43 from the charity stripe.
“Our free-throw shooting was
awftil,” Fox said. “I told my coaches
at a staff meeting two days ago that
our free-throw shooting was about
to cost us, because I have not been
happy with our approach when we
shoot them in practice.”
For Colorado, the free-throw line
sparked its first surge of the night,
going 13-for-16 in the first half.
Trailing Georgia 31-14, while going
2-for-15 from the field, the Buffaloes’
free-throw sharpshooting ignited a
19-2 run to close out the half tied at
33 points apiece.
Leslie led Georgia through the
early minutes of the second half
scoring 10 of his 19 points the
ninth and 10th coming on one of his
signature dunks to give the Bulldogs
a 52-46 lead. But Colorado
ued to pester the Georgia defense
throughout the rest of the half,
regaining a 60-58 lead with six min
utes left to play in the half.
The Buffaloes were anchored by
Cory Higgins, who scored 13 of his
15 points in the second half.
Georgia continued to surge in
the final minutes of the game, out
scoring the Buffaloes 14-10 the rest
of the way, led by Robinson’s six
late points.
“We knew we had to let our expe
rience carry through at the end of a
close game,” Robinson said. “We
played a tough game, and with some
of us in foul trouble, we knew we
had to have each other’s backs out
there.”
Colorado was led in scoring by
Alec Burks, who had 21 points.
The loss is the first for Tad Boyle
as the Buffaloes’ head coach.

rebounded and held
Colorado’s 3-point barrage
to a goose-egg: 0-for-7.
Basically, they improved
on everything that nearly
killed them against
Mississippi Valley State
and held a seemingly com
manding 31-14 lead with
6:28 remaining in the first
half.
“We had a great start,”
Georgia head coach Mark
Fox said.
Then it all came crash
ing down.
Georgia started turning
the ball over and missing
shots left and right.
Its white-hot shooting
streak turned ice-cold as
the Bulldogs ended the
first half on a 4-for-17 skid.
Even the high-flying
Dunkmaster General
Travis Leslie
missed a one-hand
ed slam leaving
the game wide open
for a Colorado
Buffalo comeback.
Georgia allowed
Colorado to fin
ished the half on a
19-2 run by commit
ting foul after foul.
And Colorado hit
free throw after free
throw in the half,
hitting 13-of-16 free
throws.
Conversely, the
Bulldogs consis
tently missed
theirs, shooting an
abysmal 5-for-13
from the charity
stripe in the first
half.
“I think it was a
lack of concentration,”
said senior forward Chris
Barnes, who himself
missed eight free throws.
“I know I shot terrible
from the line and it was
really fbnny when I made a
free throw and the crowd
started cheering. It was
our focus and we have to
be focused all throughout
the game.”
The last 6:10 of the first
half was, dare I say, remi
niscent of when Dennis
Felton roamed the side
lines and when, like clock
work, Georgia would
sleepwalk through large
stretches of games and
completely fall apart.
Yet unlike the Felton
days, the Bulldogs didn’t
fold up the tent and go
home.
They battled through
the stamping Colorado
run. They battled through
the excruciatingly tight
officiating and the embar
rassing amount of missed
free throws.
They even battled
through the loss of Travis
Leslie to fouls with 3:27
left while clinging to a

69-65 lead.
The locker room at
halftime was full of
encouragement rather
than dismay, and the
Bulldogs showed it in the
second half.
“We knew we had to
have each other’s back,”
said junior guard Gerald
Robinson, who had a
team-high 21 points. “You
have to learn how to win
those close games. It’s
easy to win blowout
games, but to have the
experience of staying
together it gives confi
dence to everyone and will
help us win these games
in the future.”
After Leslie was exiled
to the bench for fouling
out, the onus to lead the
team fell to Robinson and
Dustin Ware.
Ware scored all seven

Mark Fox’s first season in
Athens.
Last season, Georgia
was 6-10 in games decided
by nine points or less.
Granted, the sample
size is small, but Georgia
has won both games this
season is such fashion.
And with its best play
er, Trey Thompkins who
has missed the past two
games with an ankle injury
in street clothes.
“We don’t have Trey
and we had to look at the
younger guys to step up
and they did,” Barnes said.
“They made big plays and
it showed they are learn
ing from the younger guys
and this is really going to
help in the long run.”
It’ll help, because in the
long run, this team is a
whole new breed of
Bulldog. This is the type of
team that will be able to
withstand comebacks and
preserve leads late in
games this season.
It’s the resilient type.
