Shame really. Bracket opened up for the Cats two years in a row and nada.

This game was lost by guard play.

Oh well, fun season.
Yep, poor guard play, missed free throws (especially the front ends), Herro was non-existent, critical turnovers, questionable shot selection, etc.. It just seemed like they struggled all day. So sad for it to end this way.

Yep. Multiple reasons. Herro was 3-11 from the field, PJ was 6-11 from the foul line and 3 of those were front ends, and Hagans had 7 turnovers. Just a bad game.

I thought I was watching a replay of the Kansas State game. PJ playing good on the floor and missing free throws. It got us beat both years. Our guards are very average and certainly not of NCAA championship caliber.

Wash Rinse and Repeat.

I said the same to my wife. One more from him in regulation and our chances of going to the FF increased greatly.
 
No more basketball for me. Maybe if Duke loses today. I'll probably take a few days off. Go off grid for a little bit like I do a few times every year. Cleansing.

Last thing I'll say. Auburn is a juggernaut even without Okeke. They've won 12 straight games and haven't lost since the Cat's blew them out in February. They destroyed Tennessee, Kansas and North Carolina. No shame in losing but I still think we had the better team.
 
The sight of the Auburn player driving for a layup with his arm clearly wrapped around Herro with a ref looking directly at it and ignoring the infraction is forever burned in my mind.

We did enough to beat 5 guys from Auburn. We couldn't overcome the 7 or 8 people on the floor at any given time. That warning on the bench was given as an insurance policy if they should need it later.
 
Fell a little short. Now who will we get back.

I have fallen in love with Travis. What a fine young man. It killed him to lose today.
He is that. He will be successful in life with or without basketball. I feel bad for him that his dream was shattered. We lost this game due to poor guard play. Our guards are not good enough to get a team to an NCAA Championship. They got us beat.
 
Herro is a knockout shooter, but easily shut down and isolated. I think he returns. Keldon will test the waters. Rest should return unless recruited over. Depends on agents.

Think Herro is gone. NBA scouts and GM’s love his stroke. PJ has NBA game now. Keldon has all the physical attributes they want, can drive to the hoop and shoot the three.

Not easily shut down in NBA. They don't play zone and there will never be a double team out on top. He's gone.

We're stronger next year than this year.

Can't believe no one is commenting on the officiating down the stretch. Went crazy here bitching about it. To many obvious calls and noncalls to ignore. The narrative was preserved.
 
When does the cycle work its way back around to the point where UK is allowed to win?,
No way in today's world of subterfuge am I going to believe everything is on the up and up and narratives aren't the driving force. Maybe that makes me sound like a global warming touting dumbass, I don't care. Focus groups could very well inform people of influence due to different scenarios. Don't think of things that are within your realm, think of things that are possible but not necessarily probable. Those are the things that a concerted effort and a fair amount of money and promise of fortune could attain.
