Why can't we bring this to the road?

Why does molasses hit us away?

[Hoggish1]

Well, I say let's bring this on the road...!

Officiating will not allow this style to work on the road unless we have vastly superior talent, which we do not.

We finally brought it for most of the game against the Vols. Same effort would have been wins at A&M and UGA. Would also translate to several wins with our remaining road games. Guess we shall see which team shows up.

Without an overwhelming amount of talent such as Kentucky it's impossible to consistently win on the road in the SEC. The refs just don't let it happen. Every team loves getting those calls when they are the home team though. If you don't have the talent gap that Kentucky can create then you will be lucky to win more then 3 road games a year which should be enough to get us into the NCAAT every year

Look inside the numbers.  Even at home, Auburn shot more free throws, 31, than the hogs, 30. Aub only tunred it over 6 more times.  The difference in this game was the Hogs shot 46% and Aub only 36 or 37%.

The Hogs game just does not get them to the line enough, does not rebound enough, is not turning people over enough, and is too reliant on jump shots.  That is not a good formula for winning on the road.

[The Hogfather]

We rely far too much on jumpshooters.  AND, we get killed by the refs on the road, just like every other SEC team (I think our swing from home to road is worse than some others).

Really?  Auburn shot more Ft's sat than the Hogs did. How is that the road team getting killed by the refs?

Wow!  One [CENSORED] game!  Good call!

They are out to get Ark. GUess they let Vandy have a free pass at A&M Saturday.

Do our fans travel? We need some WPS on the road.

It is not just one game.  At home, FLa shot 7 more Ft's than the Hogs, and the Hogs shot one more Ft than KY, at home.

Also, last season, in 9 home sec games, the Hogs were only +12 in FT attempts, and that includes being +32 against Aub and A7m.  In the other 7 SEc HOME games, the hogs were -20 in Ft attempts. 

Even in a league where the home team supposedly gets huge ft attempt disparities, the Hogs barely are to the + side, the Hogs are only + 19 in their last 12 SEc home games.

Gulley's minutes are going up which is a good thing. We're finally establishing a guard other than Madden that can contribute to the game and not look like an innocent bystander.

I love hyperbole.

This style will work on the road we just don't have a reliable go to scorer to close out games.

We do, but he shoots weird shots.
