Absolutely. Hard not to run out of gas when the refs send you to the foul line less than a quarter of the amount they send the other guys. Ridiculous calling, but we showed a lot of heart and proved we can play with anyone in the country with that 11-point lead. But with only nine guys, a fast team like Xavier can wear you down.
No question how proud Bulldog Nation is of Dennis's Dream Dawgs. The history books, boys, the history books.

Man, the DAWGS played great in the 1st half but it looked like they had the tired legs in the 2nd half. Too many turnovers, the shots weren't dropping, & to Xavier's credit, they outplayed us on both sides of the ball down the stretch.
Regardless, I will always cherish the fond memories of the 2008 Dream Dawgs & nobody can ever take away the title of SEC TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS! That SEC CHAMPIONS banner will always stand out hanging from the rafters in Stegeman! Like RedDawg & wlayton, I'm really PROUD of Denny's Dawgs for showing so much heart & determination til' the end!
THANKS TO THE ENTIRE TEAM & STAFF FOR GIVING DAWG NATION A MAGNIFICENT MARCH TO REMEMBER!!!

The officiating was terrible, Bliss almost lost it and I don't blame him. I am so proud of this team, an inspiration to the Dawg Nation. Thanks guys!

I counted atleast 4 clean blocks by Bliss....all called for fouls,and 2 blocks by Jackson called for fouls as well. Gaines didn't goto the line once, i'm sure that has never happened before in any game he has ever played. We should have won, the refs basically gave Xavier the comeback by putting them at the line so much. 33 FREE throw attempts for Xavier, only 5 for Georgia. Give me a break. I don't think we ran out of gas, but our guys became discouraged from the unfair refs and had to change the way they played, fearing getting fouls called.
