kENTUCKY @ KANSAS OFFICIAL THREAD

[LowCountryCat]

Ty Ty is bricking every shot this half.

Killing the offense.

Also, Keon wearing it out and Cal takes him out. WHY???!!!!

Probably needed a breather. Look for him to come back in after the TO

 

[BourbonBalz]

Zone defenses just kill our offense. It’s been that way for years.

 

[kywildcat41035]

Well when you don’t keep the petal to the metal this is what starts happening!

 

[SosaUK87]

He better be shooting 3 free throws. I’ve seen that happen so much and it’s not called no damn pass.

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

We’re lost against this zone. Guess we don’t practice against it.

Ok

 

[TheWyldKat]

Get some stops and get out in transition

 

[HenryMuto]

Normally up 14 you wouldn't say a FT would be that big of a deal but that front end of the 1 AND 1 is going to be so huge we have not scored for a while and we need to stop their run.

 

[SpamburgerHamburger]

Couple games Toppin has been effective getting to the free throw line and passing out against a zone. Not surprised to see it again here. Gotta hit the shots though.

 

[kyjeff1]

Hopefully cal has something up his sleeve for this zone

 

[Ripcord65]

This is where Cal puckers his butthole up and tries to slow it down instead of doing what got him the 20 pt lead

Yep. Calipari has already started choking.

 

[UKortho]

He was shooting and then he passed because he got hit that should be three shots.

That’s what I thought. He should have just shot it.

 

[nssdigitalchumps]

Lol and here come the cal complainers right on time! Started with half time talk, now it is zone, and now it is a timeout. Lol

up by 14 and eating our coach alive.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Grady should have just went up with it. Oh well. You just knew the run was coming. Better hit these fts

 

[crawfords corner]

we knew KU would make a run. time for our answer

 

[Chief Paducah]

Gotta figure this zone out and quickly. If it gets under 10 Allen Fieldhouse is going to erupt.

 

[YardCat]

Coaching

 

[FanofUK]

I predicted 10 or less with 10 or more to play. UGH

 

[The_Answer1313]

Should be 3 shots lol

 

[STL_Cat]

2-3 zone has us a little out of sorts

 

[CrazyCat74]

I hope he does whatever he thinks wins this game, cause the man sure as hell knows how to coach.

He took his foot off the gas.... Fyi

 

[Cowtown Cat]

Am I a homer, or did we just get like three terrible calls in a row?! Starting with that BS 3 second call on Oscar. We are honestly the only team in D1 that seems to be called for it.

That I can get behind. That is true, but that is what zones are meant to do.

 

[slushpump]

KU is scoring and keeping our fast break from happing.

 

[zannmann]

The zone is easy when you have a kid like Grady. Shoot them out of that crap.

 

[ArtLaibsGhost]

Ty ,Ty decided not to show up today, we haven’t needed him till now

 

[The_Answer1313]

Yeah I thought that was a bit ridiculous.

 

[SpamburgerHamburger]

Yep. Calipari has already started choking.

Go away.

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

Why can’t Cal figure out a zone offense? It’s embarrassing. Cost him 2 titles already … stubborn MFer.

 

[UKortho]

He better be shooting 3 free throws. I’ve seen that happen so much and it’s not called no damn pass.

He definitely should be.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

The Oscar call was bad but I can understand why they called it because it looked like he got fouled. But he didn't.

 

[ck-2]

I’ll give Self credit. He’s gone man to man, 1-3-1, and now 2-3.

 

[kybassfan]

We gotta bang it inside for this zone. Need some of that interior passing from the first half. Keep that spacing on passes.

 

[catben]

He better be shooting 3 free throws. I’ve seen that happen so much and it’s not called no damn pass.

Ref put up One-And-One. Could have been 3 but Grady saw the defender right before he shot and passed it.

Crappy.

 

[HenryMuto]

Sure didn't like the last 4 minutes. Went from 22 to 14 in a hurray and the zone is baffling us. Oscar called for a BS foul on an off rebound as well.

 

[SpamburgerHamburger]

Ty ,Ty decided not to show up today, we haven’t needed him till now

Guess all the great defense and assists don't matter to you?

 

[hotelblue]

Zone defenses just kill our offense. It’s been that way for years.

wheeler was diving their 1-2-2 the last 5 minutes of the first half. now they’re in a 2-3 and we got cute trying to pass it to the free throw line. we started to swing it though. they over extended the zone and things opened up. we play unselfish we should be ok. no question ku is defending well right now.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Got em in the first 4.
But they popped us in the next 4.


Come on guys!

I’ll give Self credit. He’s gone man to man, 1-3-1, and now 2-3.

Exactly. It makes a huge difference. Great way to steal possessions and keep your opponent off balance.
