I think we’ll win today

[bucsrule8872]

Might be crazy, but I think this game will be a lot like Gonzaga and Florida, but we will find a way to close the deal for a change.

I have it modeled as a coin flip. We can’t lose all the coin flips. Can we?

What are you smoking Aike? Must be some good $#!+, dude.

I’m going out to eat and shopping with the fam instead of wasting my time watching. I’ll watch on my phone when I can, but I’m not wasting another Saturday watching hot garbage.

Seems like it all started downhill in 2021 and we never bounced back.

Started way before that. Just look at all the close season-ending losses we've had:
2011 UConn (Kentucky trailed by 2 with 16 seconds left and possession)
2014 UConn
2015 Wisconsin (Kentucky led by 4 with 4:30 left)
2017 UNC (Kentucky up by 5 with 5 minutes left)
2018 Kansas State (Kentucky led by 1 with 1:30 left)
2019 Auburn (Kentucky led by 2 with 30 seconds left)
2022 St. Peter's (Kentucky led by 6 with 4 minutes left)
2023 Kansas State (Kentucky led by 1 with 2:21 left)
Almost all of these games were one-possession games in the final two minutes, with the exception being the 2014 UConn game.

Cal is the king of close and devastating ncaa losses.

I took my kids to hibachi last Saturday instead of watching the Auburn game live. Followed the score on my phone instead of planning my whole Saturday around it. Was pleasantly surprised that we won the game and we had a blast watching it when we got home. I’m with you, I’m not going to plan my weekends around watching them live. I happen to be home today, so I will.

He didn’t do the pre shoot around and also Jack said he now thinks he won’t go . Just last night Jack had him playing

Tre is soft let’s just be honest, dude can practice but can’t play? Yeah okay…. It’s not like we will miss his laziness in the court or anything

This is because he is not a very good bench coach. He has relied on getting great players and riding them to victory. You have to be able to make some in game decisions.

Yeah but it’s not fair to say it started back then but then ignore things like all the Brandon Knight shots in 2011, or Aaron Harrison’s heroics in 2014.

Of course we’ve always lost some tight games late, but we used to win our fair share too.

I feel like something broke in 2021 and we’ve never been able to get our mojo back. Dillingham may be a 1 man bad mojo eraser.

Nooooooo. My cat brother. You must leave the house now and enjoy yourself and come back at halftime again! We need this win!
