1 of the worst officiated games

That call foul on Bradshaw was horse-shi** . He was completely vertical running down the lane, that florida guard has been watching scottie pippin junior, just throw your shoulder into the straight up defender, bounce off like you have been shot, and there is the predictably horrible sec whistle.
Yep, this is exactly what I was expecting. Truth is, Florida fouled more, but does that matter? Not in the SEC. They have to "even it up," especially when it comes to UK. I knew we'd get ripped a new one.
And that makes it even more impressive, between those officials and the "rowdy reptiles", that our young team, in its first true road game, was able to win. Our guys should definitely be commended. Review it, then forget it, then move on.
Kansas game today makes these refs look great.
Whew I dunno man. I thought it was a really bad officiated game. You have to win them and our guys executed. Calipari finally forced them to go through Reed at the end to seal it (should be doing jt all game), but those officials were pretty bad. It was like defending drives were a foul against us no matter what.
Bad enough watching the refs but it seems that the TV guys always have to whine about a couple of calls not going for our opponent. But nothing said about some obvious ones they don't call for us.
After seeing the entire game for the first time today, it was a typically poorly called road game for Kentucky.
.... and we beat them 5 vs. 8
even better !

Which means he shouldn’t have made the call.
Yeah a blind man could see we got a bunch of shit calls. It wasn’t the worst today but that second half was pretty horrid.
The Reeves on was close. Not overly upset at that one. The Bradshaw and Reed ones were S-Class level clown calls.
The Bradshaw one where he was straight up and down was a PERFECT example of an official anticipating a foul. Which is like Day 1 of ref school of what they teach you NOT to do!
The worst officiated game was TCU @ Kansas. The referees stole that game for Kansas!
Florida shot 11 more 3's and had 6 more fouls called on them than us and fouled us multiple times at the end to stop the clock and yet shot 1 more FT for the game....🤦♂️
I'm resigned to the fact that every road game is gonna be a referee shit show like today.
It's not that, it's the inconsistency. It changes from tv timeout to tv timeout, from one end of the floor to the other and from half to half.
Happened a lot in the UNC game also with the UNC guard, Davis jumping into our guys and we were getting called for fouls
My 90" TV showed me the Fla guy hit Reeves in the head when he blocked his shot which should have been a foul
Yeah, that was pathetic for Bilas to say that. Watch these guys enough over the years you know how they mostly just cover up their bias. The last two fouls we drew before halftime that they did not call and the TV guys are crickets.
As have I
Yesterday was relatively okay as far as officiating is concerned IMO
At least it was expected
As I said in another thread yeah it was a mistake but I also think it was an instinctive reaction not that he was trying to do anything heroic
Exactly how I feel about it
do we need to do backflips and make it out to be a win over a top 5 team? No of course not
But it WAS a solid win over a decent team in their house. more importantly it was a really good test for our freshmen in a hostile environment. Got shook early on but managed to pull themselves together, even with poor shooting and worse officiating
This. Win on the road in P5 is always always a good thing. I mean look at Marquette yesterday. They lost. They lost a bad Seaton Hall in a road game. I don’t understand why some are poo-poking his very good win.
Reeves was fouled back of head. Obvious foul, but this is the sec, worst officials in so sports.
My bad, my tv is only 65 inches, but it was still a good block. If Bradshaw had blocked someone similarly, this board would have been going crazy if a foul was called.
