Gardner-Webb 91, Radford University 71

The Bulldogs are on a roll. I am quiet surprised for this outcome. I am not a bulldogs hater, I just thought the bulldogs were heading for the  tubes after losing 4 games straight. It could have been the fact that the previous teams weren’t in the Big South Conference and Radford University. But radford was 2-3 before this game. Alas, this maybe a positive for the bulldogs knowing that they can work harder, and they have to trust in themselves. Not just the leading point scorers, we have to be chill. Now that the bulldogs in the conference are now 1-0 they have a lot to prove to not only the school but to the conference. Don’t let us down dawgs.

As I write this The bulldogs are playing Liberty Univeristy in the second half down by two… I will get you the final score at the end of the half.

Unitl then

Is this a dream?  Is this an early Christmas Miracle? Or Am I still in Turkey Coma? I need to be pinched because Gardnner-Webb won its first Basketball game, and it was the HOMEOPENER! Great job guys. Let’s keep the hope alive!

Seeing this with my own two eyes, I must say that this game against University of Virginia-Wise was a hard fought game. The boys were on their toes. They rebounded every ball possible, and the points just kept on coming. I must say that I am excited to see the team go on and contine this winning streak, but hey, you never know. Good Job boys! The next game the bulldogs will play is away in their first conference match at Radford Universtiy.

Good Luck

Until Next Ttime…Stay Fly

Gardner-Webb 70,University of South Carolina 85

Now, this where I am going to turn a little sour on College Basketball. Gardner-Webb University now 0-4 in the Big South Conference, lost the South Carolina Gamecocks. WHAT! You would think that after the four point lost to Oklahoma the team would start to wake up and step up thier game. Apparently not! I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt that the past couple of games were really close and they probably got tired towards the end. but they lost by 15! Looking at the stats the team have not been in there A-game. now being a student, people would tell me that I should cheer for them regardless and stop bashing them. I’m not bashing them. I am lightly boosting spirits. According to the rivials website, the gamecock team was just faster and on the ball more.

The Men’s Team will play their first home game University of Virgina-Wise on Saturday! Let’s Pull a win boys.GO BULLDOGS!

Gardner-Webb 76, Oklahoma 80

Close but no cigar for the Gardner-Webb Runnin’ Bulldogs, losing by four points  to the twelfth ranked Oklahoma Sooners this past Saturday. The bulldogs came up short against the sooners. No Surprise there, I mean the running bulldogs lost to Virginia Tech an Atlantic Coast Conference team, then  Longwood Univeristy, a school in Virginia. With this lost the bulldogs are now 0-3 and second to last in the standings tied with Coastal Carolina. Now if you are a Gardner-Webb fan then this may be a little harsh for you to handle but here it goes…. THIS TEAM IS GOING NOWHERE THE WAY THEY ARE PLAYING….SO GIVE UP. The defense are lagging and from the way sport writers are writing this the boys are getting tired and slacking off when they have the lead. Sorry Boys but you can’t do that.

Many fans thought that if they had beaten a nationally ranked team then it would be a replay of last year’s 16 point domination over Kentucky Wildcats. I hate to say this but the cinderella story is OVER! Time to get back into playing some real basketball. A quote from Oklahoma’s head coach pretty much describe how I feel about the Men’s basketball playing

“Gardner-Webb was tremendous. I felt they played with a sense of urgency. They played like a team that was desperate and hungry for a win. … We played like a team that just thought we had to show up.

“Hopefully we can learn a valuable lesson from this.”

Coach Jeff Capel

 This quote was about how close his team came to a lost to the Bulldogs. But reread the first part ” They played like a team that was desperate and hungry for a win” I don’t know if people find that uplifiting our just plain trash talking but something needs to be done…. The Bulldogs(0-3) will end their four away games travel playing the South Carolina Gamecocks this Tuesday November 25th before the first away game at Paul Porter’s Arena November 29th against University of Virginia-Wise…

I hope they can pull out a win. Before they lose fans and potential players for upcoming years

Until Next Time….Stay Fly
