******Game Thread Colgate vs UK*******

[zannmann]

Somebody guard number 1.

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

Can Oweh make anything at the rim?

He misses a lot of bunnies and its becoming an issue.

 

[Seth_C]

If we lose this game…: pope should be fired. Only half kidding.

Hahaha no…but there won’t be any excuses that can be made for it.

 

[ala_kat2]

Robinson having a BAD game so far. Brea cannot guard his man and Oweh can’t buy a bucket. Colgate getting reverse layups and threes and playing out of their minds. However, our defense has been terrible.

 

[Basscat1987]

Ok NOW it’s acceptable to start trashing this team for this shitty play. 5 min into the 2nd half and nothing has changed. This is ridiculous. Get ur head out of ur fking asses and start playing some GD defense.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Gotta love Jaxson’s confidence. 😣

Brea cannot guard ANYBODY

 

[Roe07]

Their only two wins are against a D3 team SUNY-Canton, and UNC Wilmington.

Pope only needs one thing. For Young version of Pitino to teach him how to destroy a team when you have them on the ropes

 

[MbergCat]

Would this be the worst loss in program history? It would definitely be up there.

 

[sefus12]

Outside of Brea, I think this is simply a bad shooting team. Those first couple games were the exceptions, not the rules.

And I know Pope is Mr Positive, but someone needs to light a fire under these guys’ asses. They look like they are playing at 75% speed, especially on defense.

 

[JFCats22]

Unreal

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

So maybe Pope needs to stop giving charity minutes to kill momentum and just keep pushing, yeah? This is what happens when you let the little guy get confident and hang around. Thought this group was above it but they look like a Cal coached team expecting to just win on talent and look shell shocked.

Hey CATS...BBN would appreciate it if you would step on the gas and put Colgate in the rearview mirror.

 

[bbncal02]

Playing Gonzaga without Butler: "Damn, we might lose now."

Playing Colgate without Butler: "Damn, we might lose."

They are playing like Pope wants us to …

 

[UKDC80]

That pride we had didn’t last long. Good freaking grief! I’m surprised but not surprised! How?

 

[Bluegrass79]

All right Pope it be about time for you to switch to zone a bit.

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

Their only two wins are against a D3 team SUNY-Canton, and UNC Wilmington.

And a 2 point loss to Syracuse.

They aren’t good but they have competed a few times this year

 

[Bigkyfan10]

People love Pope and this UK team because of the comebacks against Duke and Gonzaga. Yet they fail to realize it was Pope's coaching and preparation in the first half and the teams talent that got us down big the first half...not to mention a loss against an unranked team.

 

[Jamal Mercer]

Gotta live with this style even when you can’t hit the broad side of a barn.

Just go inside

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

-31.5 favorite lol

 

[Seth_C]

Had no idea Todd Sviboda had bone cancer and had to have his leg amputated. Sad to see that and I hope he recovers.

 

[Digger-Cat]

You know, even when we started 17-0, we still looked off. It just seeked like it was way more about Colgate being bad.

Now Colgate believes they can win. That's not good.

 

[rick64]

Jax3!!!!

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

That’s what we need guys Trent Noah will solve everything

 

[megablue]

Would this be the worst loss in program history? It would definitely be up there.

Colgate is 2-8 … they cannot sustain this.

 

[bbncal02]

Bout time Jax!

Now get a damn stop!

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

Would this be the worst loss in program history? It would definitely be up there.

VMI says hello. It would be bad though

 

[ukjenning44]

Finally

 

[Kerry Kat]

JR woke up

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Thank you Robinson

 

[howercat]

Noah!!!!

 

[FirewithFire]

Finally some shots fall.

 

[Noxium322]

Noah!

 

[crawfords corner]

Noah with no conscience with the 3

 

[HenryMuto]

BOOM BOOM BOOM just like that 3 straight 3 balls!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MbergCat]

VMI says hello. It would be bad though

What was VMI's record at that point? And ours? Not being a smart ass, genuinely curious.

 

[rick64]

Amazing how easy the game is when you make shots.

 

[Kerry Kat]

That’s more like it.
