Dawg Sports

We've got a game. We're going to lose. It's going to suck.

If you can stomach it, the game is in Athens, on Fox Sports Net, and open for discussion in the comments below.

Vaya con Dios. Go 'Dawgs!

How unimportant is the Georgia Bulldogs' men's basketball game against the South Carolina Gamecocks in the grand scheme of things? It matters so little that the game, which tips off in Columbia, S.C., at 7:00 p.m. Eastern, is being televised on CSS, which, honestly, is worse than not being televised at all.

For the Red and Black, however, this game matters a great deal. The Fox Hounds entered this season with no realistic expectation of earning a second straight NCAA Tournament bid, and they effectively have played themselves out of NIT contention, but a minor tournament remains a possibility, one which would benefit the team tremendously were the opportunity to be afforded.

This game is an absolute must-win for the newly-resurgent Bulldogs. Honestly, if Georgia can't beat a South Carolina team acknowledged by its own fans to be the worst in a watered-down SEC, the Hoop Dogs don't deserve any sort of postseason invitation, and they will not receive one. The Athenians may be in a "win and stay home" scenario, but they're certainly in no better than a "win or stay home" situation, so cheer on the Bulldogs in the comments below.

Go 'Dawgs!

At 1:30 p.m. Eastern today, Mark Fox's Georgia Bulldogs will try to string together back-to-back wins for the first time since late December. In order to do that, the Hoop Hounds will have to get the better of the Mississippi St. Bulldogs in Starkville and on the SEC Network.

That, however, will be a tall order for the Red and Black. The Magnolia State Mongrels have won four of their last five, aided by Dee Bost, who leads the league in assists and may or may not have skipped out on a pregnant woman in "Lonesome Dove," producing much needless anguish.

Dial up the game, cheer on the Bulldogs (the real Bulldogs), and join the conversation in the comments.

Go 'Dawgs!

Well, here we go again. Mark Fox's Georgia Bulldogs will be hosting the Arkansas Razorbacks in Stegeman Coliseum at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on the SEC Network. Should you be so inclined, you may track (though not watch) the game here.

The Hogs are an enigmatic team, having in the last two and a half weeks beaten the Michigan Wolverines and the Vanderbilt Commodores while losing to the Alabama Crimson Tide and the LSU Tigers. Arkansas, which is still looking for its first win of the season on an opponent's home court, travels to Athens hoping to unleash "40 minutes of Hell," in honor of the roundball strategy, biography, and documentary of the same name, all of which are discussed in a recent podcast at Arkansas Expats, SB Nation's Razorbacks weblog and, I believe, the only blog in the network with "sex" in the URL.

If you can stomach another evening of Georgia men's basketball---and, honestly, at this point, no one would fault you if you couldn't---please join in the conversation in the comments below.

If this comment thread had a soundtrack, it would be Rod Stewart's "Reason to Believe," although, frankly, at the moment, I have a tough time giving you one. Nevertheless, our team is still our team, and Mark Fox's Georgia Bulldogs will be taking on Cuonzo Martin's Tennessee Volunteers in Knoxville on Fox Sports South at 8:00 p.m. Eastern.

If you're looking for cause for hope, how 'bout the fact that Georgia beat Tennessee earlier this year, and Georgia beat Tennessee in Knoxville last year. I'm saying there's a chance, so jump into the conversation and cheer on the Fox Hounds as they ascend Rocky Top to invade the haven for all that ghastly orange.

Go 'Dawgs!

Mark Fox's Georgia Bulldogs, fresh from an embarrassing loss to Ole Miss, host the Kentucky Wildcats, the consensus No. 1 team in the country, at 9:00 p.m. Eastern this evening in a men's basketball game being televised by ESPN. Yeah, that will end well, won't it?

Then again, I thought that last year, too, and it worked out all right in the end, so dive into the comment thread and cheer on the Hoop Hounds! Preferably, we'll be discussing a win; failing that, at least the gaggle of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" fans who call Dawg Sports home will be able to discuss the fact that Ensign Robin Lefler was played by Ashley Judd, who reportedly smells like wildflowers.

Go 'Dawgs!

At 4:00 p.m. Eastern, Mark Fox's Georgia Bulldogs will tip off against the Mississippi Rebels on the SEC Network. While not a rivalry game, this contest is critical to the Hoop Hounds' postseason prospects, so it is worth your while to tune in, and, as long as you're tuning in, you might as well join in the conversation in the comments below, so have at it, Bulldog Nation!

Go 'Dawgs!

The headline speaks for itself, folks. Mark Fox's Georgia Bulldogs will tussle with Billy Donovan's Florida Gators in Gainesville at 7:00 p.m. Eastern in a game being televised on ESPN. This game is a big deal, and winning would be a tall order, so jump into the conversation in the comments below and cheer on the Hoop Dogs.
