Be hard for any to lose 2 starters and win, especially on the road. Robinson and Williams need to take big steps forward tonight. Almonor and Brea need to hitting 3's big time
I’m changing my pick in Red’s pickem game.No Butler. No Carr. This one could get very painful.
Robinson can’t guard his own shadow. Got to play a Zone and hope.Ziegler gonna eat Perry alive...i think you have to play Robinson at the one.
Another positive post from youTomorrow is gonna be like when the 2013 team went to Tennessee and got beat by 1000.
If it’s a play through it or shut it down scenario, you know Butler will say “shoot it up with the steroids, put that funky tape on it and let’s roll. I ain’t ending my career like this.”A friend with connections. Told me at lunchtime today Butler was gonna be out because of his shoulder. Wasn’t sure if it was accurate until I saw tonight that he’s out tomorrow. He said it’s a case where it needs surgery and it’s a matter of either trying to play through it hurt the rest of the year or have the surgery and be done.
Did a pretty good job on Edwards last Saturday. His length can give guards problems if he will actually put the effort in.Robinson can’t guard his own shadow. Got to play a Zone and hope.
If they win I will own it but bud they ain’t winning tonight. It’s pretty clear to seeAnother positive post from you
I don’t at all because it’s a product of injuries mainly. We need health though. I’d like to see us get back on track before March at relative full strength.I agree. Tennessee on the road is an uphill (but not impossible) battle. It's not a "must win" situation. Saturday, hosting Arkansas (and not just the Cal angle) is a win that the Cats definitely need. If we can have a healthy Carr and Butler for that game and get a convincing dominant win, I don't feel terrible about the 3-game (potentially) losing streak
I don’t know how anyone could feel good about tonight. We aren’t playing NC State or somebody who is under .500 we are playing one of the 3 best teams easily this year. On the road at that.If they win I will own it but bud they ain’t winning tonight. It’s pretty clear to see
Other than a win against UT would be a Quad 1 win and Arkansas would be Quad 2 ( or worse).I agree. Tennessee on the road is an uphill (but not impossible) battle. It's not a "must win" situation.

Might be a good night to unleash a voodoo matchup zone defense.3 game losing streak incoming
Yes, Edwards didn’t have a good 2nd half, but in 1st half he had about 17 points. Maybe I was a little too hard on Robindon’s D. I don’t think we have anyone who can stop Ziegler one on one unless he’s having a bad shouting night. I foresee a lot of fouls.Did a pretty good job on Edwards last Saturday. His length can give guards problems if he will actually put the effort in.
That being said, Ziegler is much quicker than Edwards but he does struggle against length.
Boy, do we need a big game out of him and several others tonight!!
Yeah man, I get other games still having a positive attitude, but tonight just feels like a butt kicking is gonna happen. I hope I’m wrongI don’t know how anyone could feel good about tonight. We aren’t playing NC State or somebody who is under .500 we are playing one of the 3 best teams easily this year. On the road at that.
Oweh is the best defender in that starting five.PG Robinson
SG Oweh
SF Brea
PF Almonor
C Williams
Garrison, Perry, Noah, and Chandler off the bench in that order.
Yeah, given our situation..I like that about as well as anything else. It'd be a great time for one of the Ky boys to show up big, too. We need a couple of surprise player performances. It can be somebody going for 54 like Meeks or it can be a couple of guys getting 20 each...but we're gonna have to have an unseen performance on the court, from somewhere. Step right up and become almost immortal... tonight!I'd give the PG spot to Oweh.
Brea
Oweh
Almanor
Robinson
Garrison
Let's see if the guys are willing to play for one another.
Play a box and 1 and put Oweh on Lanier?Oweh is the best defender in that starting five.
That's what I have been saying.Play a box and 1 and put Oweh on Lanier?
I like the triangle and two though. At least mix up zone looks to keep them off balance. Then bomb threes whole game. We won’t get to the rim. Williams needs to be a beast on the boards tonight.That's what I have been saying.
Maybe throw a triangle and 2 and get someone in Ziegler too.
I would throw a different zone at them every possession and even do what MP did at Gonzaga, start out showing a zone, then come out of it and go man.I like the triangle and two though.

I’m done trying to figure out this team . Just going to sit back and enjoyThat 8.5 doesn’t look so high now 😔😔😔
I won't be watching.
I sat live in Knoxville in 2013 when they beat us by about 30 right after Noel went down with that injury.
It was hell for me, surrounded by putrid neanderthals screaming for their volunteers. I'd rather not relive that experience, even from this side of a television screen.
Bruh.If they win I will own it but bud they ain’t winning tonight. It’s pretty clear to see
I ended up watching the whole thing. But thank you for stalking me again.Wow. Talk about soft. Just wow.
Yes sir, I thought they were walking into a buzz saw tonight. I like many times was wrong. But I never run, like those 3 idiots say I do.Bruh.
Nope. Almost put up 80 without 3 of our top 6 players. Take 2 weeks off and then quit.If they win tomorrow it’s gonna have to be like when the reeves &wallace team won down there. A ugly game but they win in a fist fight.
Or how about laugh at me being a dumbass and move on. It’s life man, people do dumb stuff, myself included. But I man up and accept it.Nope. Almost put up 80 without 3 of our top 6 players. Take 2 weeks off and then quit.
But instead SOMEBODY steps up. Well coached freshmen made huge strides tonight, and they ALL hustled on defense, especially shutting down UT's 3's.3 game losing streak incoming

Just remember that cold stout beer was the same goof ball applauded Calipari the last 4 years.Or how about laugh at me being a dumbass and move on. It’s life man, people do dumb stuff, myself included. But I man up and accept it.
No you’re pathetic. The only time you pop off is when you look good, but when something goes agaisnt you, you’re nowhere near here and you disappear like always. Atleast I take the heat, you run and hide because your a front runner.Lol your pathetic
Exactly. His little group is gonna attack me all night and act like they run the world, but will be crickets next time something happens that isn’t supporting them.Just remember that cold stout beer was the same goof ball applauded Calipari the last 4 years.
