Against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the consolation game of the CBE Classic in Kansas City on Tuesday night, Mark Fox’s Georgia Bulldogs played a game reminiscent of their clash with the Golden Domers last Thanksgiving, building up a lead before watching it evaporate. This time, though,...
California Golden Bears 70, Georgia Bulldogs 46: The Instantaneous Ill-Informed Roundball Wrapup
Facing the season’s first meaningful challenge in the CBE Classic in Kansas City, Mark Fox’s young Georgia Bulldogs showed much early promise but ultimately could not stay with the 20th-ranked California Golden Bears, who dominated the second half to cruise to an easy 70-46 victory.

RPI WATCH: 11/23/11
After two games in two nights, it's probably fair to say Kansas and Missouri are better teams than most of us expected. Yes, it's still early, but I see Bill Self's coaching fingerprints all over his team. Win or lose tonight, the Hawks will be a tough out if they can avoid foul trouble in the...
2011 Early Season Tournaments Day 6: CBE Classic Ends, Maui Hits The Semifinal Stage
A pair of tournaments wrapped up on Monday, as the SEC picked up its fourth title of the young season and a Big East team finally broke through.

RPI WATCH: 11/14/11
OK, I was a bit negligent with this feature considering there were games the last three days, but cut me some slack — it's because I was busy cheering on the Cats, ya know? Anyhow, you typically can expect to see a sort of "weekend wrapup" RPI WATCH on Monday because Sunday is now my busiest...
Georgia Bulldogs 63, Bowling Green Falcons 54: The Instantaneous Ill-Informed Roundball Wrapup
In the opening outing of the CBE Classic, the Georgia Bulldogs poured in nearly half their shots from the field (22 of 45) to register a 63-54 win over the Bowling Green Falcons in Stegeman Coliseum. The Red and Black made it to the line 24 times, draining 16 free throws, and turned 18 BGSU...
Georgia Bulldogs Men's Basketball Season Preview: Mark Fox's Hoop Hounds Face Another Daunting Slate
The good news is that today marks the first day of men’s basketball practice. The bad news is that the ongoing NBA lockout will not permit Travis Leslie and Trey Thompkins to return to Athens for their respective senior seasons.
