18-0 Baby

[caneintally]

that's all that matters . We had 2 blowouts and then this game where we had to fight but it truly was never in jeoparody on losing . That is a good trend . Get some confidence and then play some tough games to get ready for tourney . AS i said last week i thought 60% of our remaining games would be 15-40 pt wins , another 30 % would be wins like tonight 6-14 pts wins and then we would have a few very close games like A&M where it goes down to the buzzer . IMO those are At LSU and At UGA.

Really couldn't care less about winning margin, long as it's a win.

Excellent post.

I agree. We're gonna kill a few teams and we're also "only" beat teams we "should" kill by 5 sometimes. It happens. Just win.

We are getting tested and that's exactly what we need for tournament time. Love it go cats!

Heck, I just assume watch a game like last night over a 40 point win all day. 40 point wins are good and fun, but there is a lot more opportunity for bad habits. In a game like last night's we never trailed and I doubt anyone ever thought we were gonna lose, but we still had to play as if it were tied.

Great win by the cats! 18-0!

Some fans can't see it this way, though. It's sad, but with some their lives revolve around UK basketball and they live vicariously through the team. If UK doesn't win by 20+ points, then they can't brag about it and/or talk smack to other fan bases.

exactly you don't learn much by winning by 40 .

I can almost guarantee you that Arkansas will play us closer than any other team. . They always do. We owe them a good butt kicking. The Hogs have beaten us the past 3 times they've played us.

 

[ednunn]

^^^ same fear others had with Bama

At the end of the day, people remember your record, not the number of close games or blowouts. Arkansas may be tough but I think we will be ready for the Hogs!

A + thread. No bitching, and all compliments. It is really refreshing. We can't blow every team out by 25. It just doesn't happen. Love this team. Let's keep getting better and peak at the end of the year. Go Cats!

 

[caneintally]

are we perfect ? No but you don't want to peak on January 20th . Even with our warts we , right now , are one of the best teams of the past 20 years as our D is just insanely good . No complaints from me .
