••OFFICIAL KENTUCKY VS AUBURN GAME THREAD••

[nssdigitalchumps]

Nothing has changed about how I feel about our chances yet. Still feel like we have no chance to win this game. No way Auburn sucks that bad in the 2nd half again.

Yeah. This is a reality. Hopefully we are wrong, though.

 

[$Z71$]

Ugo was 2‘ from the basket. He should have shot it. That’s not on Cal.

And if he makes a good pass Reed wide open for a 3.

I totally agree with you. I still think they lose. Sorry! I just can’t see this team doing this for two halves.

 

[Noxium322]

I bet that guy's name is Morgan or Tanner.

 

[DCFseattle]

Got eem

 

[TankedCat]

I bet that guy's name is Morgan or Tanner.

want to piss Dilly off? Tell him he reminds you of a 97 year old white guy

 

[GLR5555]

I think roasted crow will be a chefs special tonight.

 

[TheDude73]

Makes me sick to think a win vs AU is considered an upset. No UK win should be an upset.

Makes me sick people can’t be happy about a win. You should be sick if we lose this one, and ecstatic if we win, upset or not.

 

[HenryMuto]

All they are doing is just getting our hopes up so we are even more crushed after we lose.

 

[gbl97]

Dilly, Shep, Reeves, Thiero, Ugo.

Leverage timeouts to keep them fresh.

 

[the dopester]

Really does wishes we wuz up by 32 instead of tin.

 

[rick64]

 

[ck-2]

So why start Wagner again in the second half? Someone explain the logic.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

Jess Sims is sexy af! Whew!

Pass. Not my type.

 

[LmdCat]

Driving to the basket is good but we have to be smart enough to know when to go all the way to the basket and when to pull up for the midrange shot.

 

[GLR5555]

Makes me sick people can’t be happy about a win. You should be sick if we lose this one, and ecstatic if we win, upset or not.

As I will be. Just a reflection of where our program is.

 

[Bluegrass79]

Gotta play a tough second half.
Be the team that extends the lead not the one that blows the lead in first 5 minutes second half. ,, 💯


Edit:

Mission accomplished. So proud of em!

 

[UKDC80]

Dilly, Shep, Reeves, Thiero, Ugo.

Leverage timeouts to keep them fresh.

This is the lineup and I don’t give a dam what anyone says. Rob and Reed are better than Edwards/Wagner. Go with it Cal and get this win.

 

[GLR5555]

Dilly, Shep, Reeves, Thiero, Ugo.

Leverage timeouts to keep them fresh.

That's the best 5 we have.

 

[Kyhoward]

Great hustle and rebounding
Afraid of AU getting hot from 3, our defense played well except giving up wide open 3’s

 

[LmdCat]

If ugo catches it cleanly, it most likely a foul or a shot attempt at the very least

Our bigs don't have good enough hands for me trust that we will catch the ball cleanly in traffic.

Dude that's cool. 😯

 

[UKDC80]

So why start Wagner again in the second half? Someone explain the logic.

To lose the 10 point lead. It’s coming and nothing on this planet will make our stupid coach learn from it.

 

[Kerry Kat]

Shep about turns it over every time he dribbles in traffic in this game

 

[BigBlueManSouthCentralKY]

Refs killing us. Holding on defense and bumped Shep twice and no call. They are allowed to hang on us and be physical while the refs are calling tic tac fouls on us. Of course Bilas says nothing about all that but get mad when a foul was called on them instead of us.

 

[TankedCat]

they have to lose just to let them know they'll never be a blue blood

 

[darkshadesofblue]

Need everybody to contribute to some point in the 2nd half if we want to pull away in this game

 

[jameslee32]

Look I know BigZ will be great at some point..

But that 1st game performance is really further and further behind us at this point. This isn't the game for him.

And I get that in this game. Ole Miss seemed like a game he could play in though.

 

[BC_Wader]

Jess Sims is sexy af! Whew!

Yeppers!

 

[rick64]

Auburn shot 28% FGA in the first half. You know that won't happen again in the second half.

 

[LmdCat]

Then made two great plays

It doesn't matter if he made 20 great plays; he still should have taken the easy layup.

 

[ala_kat2]

Can’t expect AU to shoot 28% in the second half. We need better execution on offense to avoid giving the lead.

 

[HenryMuto]

We gave up 9 OFF rebounds in the 1st half that can't continue

 

[DCFseattle]

So far, we don't have all 5 guys collapsing in defense to whoever has the ball at all times. Guys are staying on their man for the most part...

 

[$Z71$]

Some posters are simply never happy. The same ones saying we'd get blown out of the gym before the game are now complaining about a 10 point halftime lead. What a miserable life.

 

[TriCountyCat]

They are gonna go after Ugo hard and try to get him out of the game

 

[NociHTTP]

UT is dumb as hell. You're smoking Vandy 73-34 and 61 points are coming from the starting lineup. Rest those guys and develop the other guys.

 

[kennyskywalker34]

And I get that in this game. Ole Miss seemed like a game he could play in though.

He tried Z after Bradshaw failed miserably at giving Ugonna a blow.
I'm worried the Cats are going to be gassed at the end with Auburn playing 10 guys so many minutes

 

[TankedCat]

This needs to be a statement win for UK.

If there is any faith that this team is really built for March, it needs this win

 

[permdaddy]

Not a bad play call for Reed…trying to execute it through Ugo was the mistake. Not his game.

Play was good. You had Rob with a possible switch mismatch, ugo on the roll and your best spot up shooter for an open corner 3. Good timing.... Good spacing ....Good call bad execution
