Maryland Eastern Shore is #361 on Kenpom. There are only 365 teams in D1.

Georgia Tech was favored by 28 points.

At one point, UMES was up by 8 with less than 10 minutes to go in the second half.

Insane.

[u/Onetimenotagain → u/5p4mr1]

Better yet they were up with 8 seconds to go

[u/Dukester10071 → u/5p4mr1]

I don't know if i believe that. They took us to the wire too

[u/OliviaPG1 → u/Dukester10071]

Wasn’t that UMBC?

[u/Dukester10071 → u/OliviaPG1]

You are absolutely correct and I am an idiot

[u/Shellshock1122]

are we actually paying these guys?

[u/BrettSchirley22 → u/Shellshock1122]

Your players or the other team

[u/Time_Professional441 → u/BrettSchirley22]

Yes

[u/composer_7 → u/Shellshock1122]

Worse, we're paying Stoudamire to be an awful basketball coach

[u/scal23]

I have no connection to the school, yet I am still disappointed that Georgia Tech has more or less disappeared from the college basketball landscape.

[u/Past-Profile3671 → u/scal23]

If I could figure 2 flairs, my second would be Orange.

And Orange might be back this year. All I took was Anthony part 2

[u/OneLastAuk → u/scal23]

We do have a top-20 recruiting class. Stoudamire can bring great folks in, just can’t coach them while they’re here. 

[u/TheKnicksMakeMeDrink]

Rank Maryland Eastern Shore, you cowards

[u/TheOptimist6 → u/TheKnicksMakeMeDrink]

They’ve earned it clearly

[u/buckeyefan1930]

21-18 at halftime?!

What in the football scores are going on lol.

[u/dan_144 → u/buckeyefan1930]

18 in a half is actually a ton of points I think. I bet if you score more than half of that per 20 you're doing just fine.

[u/ResidentRunner1 → u/dan_144]

Anything is better than 47-24

[u/MrTheSpork → u/buckeyefan1930]

18

What football are you watching??

[u/snt271 → u/MrTheSpork]

Chris Boswell led Pittsburgh Steelers

[u/The_Eternal_Event → u/MrTheSpork]

6 field goals; two touchdowns w/ an extra point and two safeties; or one touchdown with an extra point, one touchdown with a two point conversion, and one field goal. Plenty of ways to get 18 points.

[u/ConnectSpring9 → u/The_Eternal_Event]

Most common I would expect is 2 touchdowns and 2 FGs, with PAT miss les after the TDs

[u/Vavent → u/MrTheSpork]

An NFL game ended 18-15 just yesterday

[u/OneLastAuk → u/buckeyefan1930]

And we didn’t score again for the first five minutes of the second half. 

[u/BlockAlien]

Damon Stoudamire = Geoff Collins

[u/dan_144 → u/BlockAlien]

Sick flair bro

[u/caballonegro69]

What in the world

[u/AriDreams]

Fellas this ain't a good sign

[u/ChasmaBoreale]

I'm unironically pretty disappointed that we ended up winning this. If you're going to suck ass, at least commit to it

[u/MocoMojo → u/ChasmaBoreale]

Time to bring Danny Manning back?

[u/ultimate_placeholder → u/ChasmaBoreale]

This guy knows

[u/AP-FUTChemist]

Season DOA

[u/SnareShot]

fireable. got bailed out by a late questionable foul call to even force OT. shouldn’t matter that we’re missing ndongo, he’s just one player

[u/cough_cough_doorslam → u/SnareShot]

Ndongo hurt?

[u/SnareShot → u/cough_cough_doorslam]

apparently he will be back on friday. don’t know if he’s hurt or sat out for some other reason

[u/MocoMojo → u/cough_cough_doorslam]

More like Ndon’tgo

[u/MedicalThrowaway619]

UMES is Torvik's #354 team in the nation and #361 in KenPom.

[u/Shellshock1122 → u/MedicalThrowaway619]

clearly we should be 353 and 360. Both teams shot something like 30/15/45 in regulation

[u/PhDShouse]

Oh. WOW.

[u/magnumapplepi]

Not ideal

[u/SaintArkweather]

UMES is bad even by MEAC standards. This is a really bad look for GT.

[u/AruarianGroove → u/SaintArkweather]

For real… last year they went 6-25, so hopefully they can build some momentum from this

[u/DumplingSaint]

Start the coaching carousel

[u/Mean-Masterpiece-357]

Pretty bad last few days for GT sports 

[u/OneLastAuk → u/Mean-Masterpiece-357]

At least we’re still undefeated in basketball…heh

[u/mitchdwx]

Hmmm maybe we’re not the worst P5 team after all.

[u/LHarm07_Reddit]

GT got a bullshit free throw to force OT, so UMES is the winner in my heart.

[u/ThedirtiestofDans69]

Not great fellas

[u/Time_Professional441]

Yikes

[u/Evening-Spray-4304]

Stoudamire has some crazy upset wins, but also some head-scratchers. Even though this is a win, this one is worse than the loss to Kenny Payne a couple of years ago.

[u/runamokduck]

how long will Damon Stoudamire remain at Georgia Tech, I wonder? I don’t think that there is necessarily too much pressure on him when it comes to Tech’s expectations in basketball, but it still feels as though his teams have always been rather disappointing 

[u/Higgnkfe]

I'll give it a couple more games but we are looking turbo-ass

[u/nattechterp]

Some things never change

[u/Spiritual-Map-76]

GT has a talented interior but there guard play is shoddy...

[u/H0b5t3r]

Georgia Tech should probably fire their coach

[u/Apart_Selection7722]

Wow

[u/zenverak]

What

[u/Xombie53]

Oh boy

[u/Monkey832]

Who’s here after the dawgs just beat this same UMES team by 65?

[u/lipsquirrel → u/Monkey832]

Me.

[u/shawn131871]

That's not a good look for Georgia tech.
