Kentucky at Ole Miss Game Thread

[Rideordiewildcat]

Let's get a 50% FT guy to the line

 

[LmdCat]

Williams has played his butt off tonight.

 

[HenryMuto]

Wow what a bad pass

 

[The_Answer1313]

Now we are playing good defense but they are still hitting LOL

 

[UKAlum84]

Ole miss could miss the last 5 minutes of shots attempted and still win this game. No way we are going to make a run to win.

 

[NociHTTP]

Just going to have to hit some 3's.

 

[catben]

I know our defense is really bad, but these teams throw up CRAP that I NEVER see them even attempt against other teams and they make them!!!!!

SAD

 

[UKBB4Ever]

Pitinos first team had way way way less talent than this team. Hell, Perry/Noah/Chandler would’ve played 25-30 mins/game on that squad.

Agreed. But that’s not the point.

They played to best of their abilities every minute of every game.

 

[HenryMuto]

Just can't get enough stops

 

[ukwazoo]

Well, if the miracle is gonna happen, it needs to happen now.

 

[catben]

Another DUMB TURNOVER!!!

Hey Coach Pope, the Amari Point Center offense is not an ALL game thing!!!!

 

[Farsight]

Why is it that when we have small guards like wheeler, everyone blocks him. When we go against small guys are bigger guys let them score?

 

[NociHTTP]

Could Garrison please put his GD hands up?

 

[ManitouDan]

5”10 over Brandon garrison as he stands like a statue … so very sad 😢

 

[HenryMuto]

We are 56% from 3 and 51% from field down 14 truly amazing

 

[TriCountyCat]

I love how we play defense with our hands down. A 5 foot 9 guy easily shoots over a 7 footer

 

[xc72wildcat]

Lame 😒

 

[UKWildcats3]

Every time we need a miss they hit a huge shot...they just aren't missing

 

[NociHTTP]

The beginning of the "M" on the Ole Miss logo reminds me of Wenyen.

 

[GoNoles111]

I know our D stinks but God dang they make everything

 

[Eagles_Ball]

The arkansas game showed what can happen....I knew Ole Miss was going to be a tougher game.

And their coach is probably hungrier than Cal is.

Hungrier. And he’s a helluva lot better coach than Cal too. The guy took Texas Tech to a final 4. Texas Tech. In basketball. To a final 4. Dude can coach.

Williams has played his butt off tonight.

He has in quite a number of games recently and people still act like he's not an SEC caliber player for some reason.

 

[pinecreek]

Ole Miss feeling bad now about the game. Only up 14. Beard going to practice after the game….teach em a lesson.

 

[hotelblue]

our magic number is 107

 

[TriCountyCat]

Perspective. Calipari lost to Evansville at Rupp.

It's on Pope. You can't tell me with a straight face that grown ass adults haven't been told (have they?) to put their hands up on defense, and they just forget to do it every time.

 

[HenryMuto]

Too bad we sucked so bad the first half

 

[UKBB4Ever]

Much better effort the last 10 minutes.

Just too little too late.

 

[Digger-Cat]

We have actually played some very good defense the second half, especially the last 10 minutes. Ole Miss has made some tough shots, so give them some credit.

 

[Titpwhami2014]

Ole Miss hitting everything, even when we play good defense

 

[ManitouDan]

I’m beginning to think Garrison IQ and his basketball IQ are closely related .

 

[LmdCat]

He has in quite a number of games recently and people still act like he's not an SEC caliber player for some reason.

People feel the way they do because Williams does not always give effort.

 

[The_Answer1313]

Perspective. Calipari lost to Evansville at Rupp.

lol ok but that has zero bearing on what is happening right now.

 

[HenryMuto]

You can't shoot 56% from 3 and lose let alone lose by double digits

 

[Eagles_Ball]

Agreed. But that’s not the point.

They played to best of their abilities every minute of every game.

For sure. Had to with that version of Rick. I loved that team. Used to VCR the games at like 2am on WPSD (remember, we couldn’t be on live TV) and watch the next day. Pretty sure I’ve got the old VHSs somewhere.

 

[hotelblue]

if only there were no shot clock, we could go into a delay game and keep the deficit at 14.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

People feel the way they do because Williams does not always give effort.

Get on the victory train.

 

[LmdCat]

We don't have a single player on this team who scares anyone.

 

[ManitouDan]

It's on Pope. You can't tell me with a straight face that grown ass adults haven't been told (have they?) to put their hands up on defense, and they just forget to do it every time.

Yeah I’m pretty sure he tells them every workout “ leave your guy WFO “ 🤦

Maybe he had a couple years of bad coaching at Oklahoma State
