J. Fears is a heck of a player. He can get to wherever he wants on the court, and he gave us fits when we played at their place.
I think we slow him down just enough to win the game.

Can We Overcone Fears Thursday Night?
- Thread starter ala_kat2
- Start date
All that GA talk bout how they were gonna whip us again didn't age well.
No more crowd pressure for awhile. I like their chances
Oklahoma - new to the SEC, coming to Catsville, against a UK coach that actually cares about the SEC and Kentucky. And they just played a game while we've been resting.
The Sooners will be manhandled and they should be the ones with fear tomorrow night. It's time they get the Kentucky welcome to the SEC.

Butler only played 20 min at OU.
I think he'll have a much better showing tomorrow especially on defense.
Our whole team was actually sub par the first game except for Oweh and Garrison.

It is NOT going to be easy.
But we found a way to do it in Norman, I bet we find a way to do it in Nashville.

This is definitely a winnable game, but not necessarily an easy one. I’m hoping the neutral court setting tips things a couple of points in our favor compared to our narrow escape on the road in that first meeting, but this is still a team capable of beating us if we don’t come in focused. I’m also hoping the chippy ending to that game doesn’t carry over, because the last thing we need is to get more beat up right now. If we can come out without any new injuries and with any kind of win no matter the margin, I’ll consider it a success.
I mean they already did it in the much tougher game. More mins from butler, plus a Kentucky home game essentially, cats should win
I like our chances more after watching the Oklahoma interviews after their Georgia win. They seem to be celebrating wrapping up an NCAA bid and Kentucky is coming to play.
This is the correct take. Unless we're way off from three this should be a 10+ point win.
As others have pointed out in other threads, we seem to win games we are not expected to win and lose some we shouldn't.
Probably comes down to shooting. OU was hot from 3 tonight. Have to hope they are not tomorrow or that we are equally hot. If we were totally healthy, I would really like our chances. Like them somewhat anyway.

If I’m not mistaken; we were 4-7 pt dogs to Duke, Gonzaga, MSU, Missouri and won. The games where were 2-7 pt favorites, seem to be the ones we lose (UGA, at Vandy, Clemson, Ohio state). Hope we take care of business against Oklahoma, though.
That’s what happens when you look ahead of your next opponent.All that GA talk bout how they were gonna whip us again didn't age well.
I hope Oklahoma stayed up late celebrating. I also hope Jeremiah lets the moment get to his head and that he plays horribly today. He still needs a little humility.
There were really no cake walk teams this year in the tourney...well..LSU, but here we are.
I expect Oweh and Garrison to get beat on mercilessly tonight.
But....it's that time of year. All these guys are one or 2 losses from season or college career over.second season starts tonight, third season coming shortly.
Roll on , Cats.

I thought Georgia should have switched to a zone as Oklahoma couldn't hit from the outside and Fears had too many drives to the basket. It seems teams feel like a Zone means they are somehow weak. Syracuse for many years got far in the NCAA tourney with not the greatest players using a zone. Just saying.....
