Never thought we’d have to suffer through clunkers looking like we’re too cool to f*ck with showing up.
We give up straight line drives to the hoop and give up offensive rebounds. We will put teams on the line.
Also, this UGA team isn’t very good. And hateable. I hope they lose the rest of their games and ever coed loser there flunks out of school.

A college basketball game shouldn’t last 2 hours and 25 minutes. They’ve gone to the monitors 8 times. This is absolute trash.
Awful awful terrible game JFC
Most of it depends on if Kriisa can come back strong. We really need his fire on the road. If he cannot, then no; I don't see UK winning an SEC road game.
Uga at 81 pts while shooting 42% from fg and 29% from 3 with turnovers being even.
Pope is using the timeouts like a dominatrix stomping my nuts with high heels
This PA announcer also sucks dong.
Sorry but I think we need size and athleticism and physicality and scoring punch and he gives us none of those
We gotta be smart. No reason to get a player hurt down 14 with 24 seconds to play.
We should be thrilled we have beat Duke, Gonzaga and a legit UF team. Just enjoy the big wins and hopefully we get hot in March. At least our coach gives a 💩.

11-8 may be our best SEC record.
Team cannot deal with SEC physicality. That is why 3 point shooting is a lot different from the early season.
And although nobody was expecting it this season, the team cannot win a natty with robinson and Williams being no shows from time to time.

- Pope is too smart to not know you aren’t winning on the road if you can’t get to the line. The ability to do so breaks up runs and allows for easy buckets while getting some rest.
- We’ve seen Robinson with ball in hand and it’s clear you have to force him early. If Butler can play off ball then start games with Robinson running the show some and force his involvement.
- I love the idea of KY boy Perry playing, but at this point I prefer Noah. We need his energy and his “Guy in the right place” vibe.
- JRs and SRs can’t handle a road game. I love what Pope did getting these guys in here but that’s just shocking.
- I like Almonor but tonight 4-5 times his teammates just flat refused to hit him with a pass whether he was open for 3 or it was just routine offense. It was weird.

I know logically we are going to lose a lot of road games, a long with most everyone other than Auburn, but Jesus H. Christ I just do not handle them well while happening.
Reed with a near 50-piece after stepping down in class. He’ll be fine.
I don’t know when checking and holding off-ball cutters stopped being a foul. But it’s just about the only effective way to grind our offense to a complete hault.
Pope needs a Plan B. Because SEC refs are too incompetent to see what defenses are doing and call the game accordingly.

The game Saturday against the Mississippi State prison guards is going to be brutal if we can’t find a way to handle aggressive play
In hopeful good news. No Vitale slander will be accepted here. I know he's a shell of what he was but the man is a GD institution and I hope if he's able to hear him call games again. Esp with the bullshit we have to hear every damn game.
Always loved that guy. Hope he is okay. He LOVES life.
For you degenerates out there I’d take whoever GA plays next and lay the points. You know they will lay an egg.
It’s not a travel to slide with the ball. If you’ve ever seen as ref call that, file their name in the “dipshit” part of your brain.
Well it makes ME feel better. Makes our win even more valuable.
I love our team, and it's much more fun watching UK basketball now, than it has been in years, but we're just not built to win "ugly"
If our shots our falling, we can beat anyone. And so far, we've avoided a jaw-dropping loss. Losing to Clemson, OSU, and a road game in the SEC; none of those are devastating "tournament seed destroying"... All three are in the 30's on NCAA NET ranking.
Plus, this team seems to thrive, when they're playing a team with a low number next to their name. It just seems to bring the best out in them.
My only consolation after a game like this is that iron sharpens iron, and getting smacked in the mouth wakes you up and makes you angry. First SEC game on the road, hostile environment, first SEC road rape whistle experience, the "playing Kentucky is every SEC opponent's super bowl" thing, and physical gameplay perhaps beyond any thing they've ever encountered both individually and collectively, all that combined has to be rattling.
Still I have no doubt our team will learn and get better as we proceed through the gauntlet that is the SEC conference schedule, and these frustrating losses to good-but-not
-top-25 teams will end.

This really had the fell of a “see, I told you guys” job by the coaches in the second half… even though I’m not convinced that’s actually a thing.
It's a weird thing to say but I'd rather lose weird road games and beat top 10 rivals knowing the fundamentals of our team are good. Not exactly the same situation, but this feels kind of like the Brandon Knight team that couldn't get over the hump on the road.
Hopefully the end of year trajectory is the same at least.

I think if a kid leaves early with ncaa eligibility left then his nba team can relegate him back down to his college team and they need to make this a rule now and allow last years draft picks to do it and then Reed can come back for March madness - it’ a rule I think they should do!!
Pretty difficult to match physicality in a basketball game when you’re getting called for touch fouls but they’re letting the other team play WWE.
It feels like we are down double digits in every meaningful game in the 1st half. If we could just get our guys going early we will be really tough to beat in March.
Would love to see a switch up in the starting 5. Garrison for Amari or Brea for Jaxon makes sense.

My biggest issue is the offense with our 5 initiating our sets. While I understand that is pope’s offense, does it work if your 5 is no threat to shoot and/or is a poor ball handler?
Seems the game plan against us is to apply hard pressure on our 5 to disrupt our entire offensive philosophy. We missed some easy back door passes last night bc of the pressure. We also had some careless turnovers bc our 5 is a weak ball handler.
I like Garrison’s overall game but he is a reluctant passer that seems to always miss the open pass to make the next pass that ruins the set.
