Confidence level for Saturday at the zags?
- Thread starter Dontworryboutit23
- Start date
Oddly enough, getting bully balled at Clemson is exactly what I thought would get us a loss, especially on the road. So I actually think it benefits us, makes us hungrier.
I'd think the Zags and a long road trip will not help the shots to fall.
I'll go 50/50 for the outright win, but if the shots continue not to fall, well take another tough road loss.
I'm perfectly happy beating dUKe, losing at Clemson but getting to #4 so quickly was also nice. We may not be a top 5 team right now, but we're good. So no worries.
I'm really enjoying the ride this year! Keep the faith!
GO Big Blue!

If you have less than a 5 confidence level, you are likely assuming UK shoots 25 to 28% from three again.
We make three more three last night and everyone's waking up still thinking this is potentially an Elite Eight team.
The shots were there. UK missed a number of wide-open threes they are usually going to make.
I don't understand the panic.

Donāt blame the refs. Thatās always a bad look
The 3 point funk allowed us to bring the 2's in spades those games. In Pope I trust to have the guys dialed in Saturday. I'm at a 6 for my confidence level. Need to bring the toughness to the table. I believe we will.
I have no clue .. I dont watch west coast hoops . Couldn't name a player on the Zags team . So I'd go a 5 ... lol . Hopefully we tighten the rotation , dont get Carr and Lamont in foul trouble and lay a L on the Zags .. big game for seeding in march . A win here plus a win over the Dookies will look good .
Are we in a mini-rut or is this team not as good from 3 as people thought? In 40% of our games now we've shot less than 30% from 3. Yes, people can quote last year's shooting percentages for a lot of guys, but much of that came against worse, mid-major competition.
Dont forget the desperation, banked in 3 by the Tigers. Thats basically the diff.
My confidence in this team has not and will not waver. The season is a marathon, not a sprint. Great post SOS.
Actually, my confidence level is up slightly. Why? Because I think winning both of these games this week would have been tough. But after last night, Pope should have the team's attention the next few days. So, I think we have a solid chance to win (50/50).
I know they were "tougher" than we were last night, maybe/maybe-not aided by the refs. We also turned it over a little bit more.
But really, I think we lost because we did not shoot the ball well from 3. And that may be a reoccurring concern this year. I think Brea is the only really good 3pt shooter we have. I think (in order) Almonor, Oweh, Carr, Robinson, Chandler, Butler, Kriisa can make a decent % (Kriisa not shown us yet), but I'm not sure I would call any of them "good" from-3 (well, maybe Almonor if in the corner).

I didn't blame them. I just said if we had that crew again I wouldn't like Kentucky's odds. Carry on.
I have more confidence with the loss by that no of pts last night than had they won by the same amt. I could see they had been getting away from Coach's system the last few games trying more one on one play. This will allow Pope to get them refocused for Sat. We win. Con is 7.
Bout a 4. If our 3s fall a 6.5. Zags are tough, but hoping coming off the loss the team responds and at least doesn't get outworked like last night.
If there is some sort of illness with āflu like symptoms ā running through the team as has been discussed on another board, Iād say my confidence is either 0 or 1 depending on the scale.
After these posts I reviewed your posting history. You are a top contender for worst poster on this site . Or best troll if that makes you feel better.
Yeah Gonzaga is so good they couldn't even beat West Virginia. If you seriously think West Virginia is better than Kentucky. Log off
That's awesome news. I would review your posts but no one cares about your posts.
I'll go with a 4/10.
The positives:
-Coming off a loss.
-Won't be as crazy of an environment
-Not sure if Gonzaga is THAT much better than Clemson
The negatives:
-We're clearly not as good as we thought we were coming into last nights game.
-Still think we have a ways to go as a team.
-Still a road game, by any other means.
