Yeah, I thought we’d go 1-1 this week with what you said. I think the cats will be motivated after getting ran out the gym vs SC and with it being Gameday. I expect a dialed in team Saturday. Maybe Reeves can drop another 30+ at Bud.
Saturday @ Arkansas
- Thread starter RMorris33
- Start date
Yeah but Arky’s offense and defense is much worse than A&M and S Carolina. No way we should lose this game. We could blow them out and give Everyone false hope again.
Kentucky deifnelty should blow them out. I just don’t see it happening. Kentucky will let Arkansas get open shots and get the crowd into it, and Kentucky also won’t guard or rebound which will make the game 10 times harder
I'm still optimistic, but you know their fans will have them playing out their behinds ... To be fair, the refs at South Carolina held their whistles and let them rough us up pretty bad, esp in the first 5 to 10 min of that game. But we played like crap and were coached like crap ...
From Rowland’s post game press conference from Cal. He seems worried about Ark-see last paragraph.
And Kentucky is vastly overrated and can’t guard air, so yes Arkansas will make it a game and may very well win
I don't think we lose Saturday. Arkansas can't/won't do what USC and TAM did. They don't have the grit. On the other side of the coin if we manage to lose this team could fold. Mitchell and Reeves are holding this team together, someone else needs to take hold of the rope before those two let go
I don't believe that the SEC is above setting games up for the most NCAA bids.........come up with some BS calls and a team that shouldn't win does........the very reason that i quit watching any live basketball.......it is infuriating to watch the SEC officials........they are either totally inept or crooked.........
Arkansas is not its normal self right now. After a loss in Columbia, I bet y’all come back and take care of business against a undermanned team.
I am afraid that Arkansas is in big trouble in this game. It may get real ugly, real quick and end in an embarrassing blow out in Bud Walton Arena. Musselman keeps trying different things, but nothing is working.
The team can shoot really well, they just can't make them, can't play defense, soft inside, can't rebound, and often handle the basketball like it is a live grenade. Not a good formula for success.
I guess sometimes if you miss on too many portal players to fill gaps, and the pieces just don't fit, you have a real mess which is exactly what we have. It's mind boggling and seems eerily similar to the UK 2020/2021 season to me. Plenty of national hype and a top 10 or 15 preseason ranking turned into a complete disaster.
You are correct in stating the sec officials will play up the home team when uk comes in. Has been happening for decades, don't see it ever stopping. SEC will do everything they can to get as many teams into the ncaa tournament, all the while knocking the cats down the seed line. Only the sec treats their bell cow program this way.
Kansas on the other hand, is bailed out week after week on the road and at home repeatedly.
Arkansas has wins over Duke, Texas A&M and UNCW by 16. We lost to 2 of those 3 teams. This isn't a gimme for Kentucky even thought everyone is expecting a win.
I've a bad feeling if Kentucky loses this game, the season is going to go downhill the rest of the way.
A very bad feeling IF they lose.
They have got to come together and win this road game. period

I see this game heading to the wire, UK down two and the ball, with three seconds left.
Cal, dusts off the clip board, 😂...
Dials up a double screen for Ugonna to jack a corner three.

I wish for something really weird again today, but not this year. Kentucky is better at every position, and it's not often Vegas just gives away free money. Take the Cat's and give the points, this one today won't be close.
