It gives me great joy knowing Cal watched that game curled up with Skippy in Fayetteville , Arkansas.

By Skippy I assume meant to put “a jar of” in front of that.

Clutch!

I thought Carr was the MVP and played a fantastic game, especially given he was assigned to Flagg most of the night ... had to wear him down on D and still performed on the other end.

This team will only get better as Pope learns more about the players strengths and how to best use them.

Too early in the season to be worried about rankings in my opinion.

I'm used to stewing until the earlier hours after yet another demoralizing loss. This time I was in after glow until the early morning hours cuz we won and I wanted to soak it all up. Moral of the story, I'm not sleeping after a big game win or lose.

I just recently finished a book about the Sackler family. Their history with OxyContin is well chronicled, but what I didn’t know is how they got their start.

Arthur Sackler actually owned a weekly medical journal (Medical Tribune — distributed to 600,000 doctors across 20 countries) and an advertising agency (LW Frolich).

He pioneered the concept of selling a drug, then controlling all the marketing, communication, and advertising to both doctors and the public alike. What a dude.

Should be top 10. They steamrolled the two smaller schools as they should, and beat a top 5 team on a neutral floor. No excuse otherwise, aside from a silly preseason ranking based on nothing other than guesswork.

Meanwhile, in the Top Headlines section of ESPN landing page, what would you expect to see? "Duke Upset by Kentucky!" or "Hard Fought Battle Goes to Kentucky" or "Kentucky 1st Classic Win in X Years"

Nope. Nada. Zip. Zilch. And I love that they're choking on a UK victory over Duke.

THE headline relative to that big game and huge upset- "Scheyer: Duke's continued cramping concerning"

Lmao. Choke on it ESPN!!

"Cooper Flagg's 26 points not enough for Duke against Kentucky"

This. Half his shots were because he tried to get something going. But he put it to Maluach and wore his ass out into having to sit. Battling Williams is no small task to ask of anyone let alone a freshman. He tried to draw fouls or beat them down and it worked regardless of how many he missed. He tried and it worked out. 2 or 3 more makes and he gets 10 times the praise.

I find it odd that he has such fluid ball handling and passing skills and has a few moves under the basket, but when it comes to actually shooting he loses all coordination. If he could develop a little mid range jumper he could be deadly.

But Logano raced the perfect season for the format.

The regular season in NASCAR, much like NCAA hoops, is largely meaningless. Penske has realized this and they run best when it matters. If the format changed, strategies would change.

I agree with Hamlin and Latarte on Denny's podcast that it should be only winners make the chase and then let the first 7 races determine the final four who battle it out over the final 3 races. One race shouldn't determine a champion. I know they want to be like stick and ball sports but in racing when wrecks, mechanical failures and other factors that are out of your control can affect your finish, it shouldn't come down to 1 race.

I prefer my Duke tears with fervor beans and a nice Chianti

TriangleUKCat · Wednesday at 8:01 AM

It was strange watching a Duke game where the biggest asshole was on our team.

What a win.

I think it'll interesting to see if the Coach's and AP polls are the same or different.

I think we'll be 10/11 ish.

They will spot UK at #11 just to spite us out of the top 10.
UK should be top 5 after last night.
Easy.

I know it's just one game, but Robinson didn't impress me at all. He looked overmatched physically. However, Oweh and Butler are two tough, physical guards who will keep us in a LOT of games.

ManitouDan · Wednesday at 8:01 AM

AWESOME win and it matters HUGE !! they will be a 1 seed or a 2 , we already have a win over a top 3-4-5 ranked team .. they are tough .. their D was locked in but we wanted it more than them !!!!!!

Runnin'Ramel · Wednesday at 8:01 AM

... and that's why Pope is the coach. I think a lot of us, in the moment, wanted UK to call a timeout when that final offensive possession (with a full shot clock) was a bit of a disaster. But Pope trusted his guys and knew Duke was gassed!

Full faith and trust in Mark Pope moving forward will serve us all really well. Lineups, plays, timeouts, etc.

Flagg isnt even their most important player. Their big man is their most important player.

Flagg went out first half with foul trouble. Thats when duke actually pulled away some. However when the big man started cramping, we finally closed and pulled ahead at the end. If he doesn't cramp, they wij going away.

Just dont see in college too many 7'2" athletic big men like that. He shut down all our back doors and dives by just standing there. It let them put lots of pressure on everyone on the perimeter.

We used to name teams for UK... Haven't done it in a while... How about the UNKNOWNS... This game reminded me a LOT like the Tubby Smith game in the tourney when he beat K. K had run out of timeouts and was outcoached. Great win.
