********** KENTUCKY VS ARKANSAS GAME THREAD*****
- Thread starter crawfords corner
- Start date
Im glad they called a foul on Kingsley and not Murray, but really, wasn't that more of a play on. It didn't like he ever fully hooked him.
Foul fest, and our O basically disappeared there, but still a nice lead, maybe double digits at the half on the road. I'll take it.
Remember back in the day when baby steps were OK. Now in basketball it's if you aren't making leaps and bounds in your progression you're a lost cause.
Okay I have been riding Cal like a rented mule for not running offensive sets and more pick n' roll or pick n' pop with Skal. He has done all of that this game we just can't hit a shot. But I'm still very glad to see some variety with Cal and his offensive calls.
Wish the offense was generating more good possessions, but up 12 on the road at Arkansas, hard to really complain, especially with this team.
I have to believe it's because Brickso has something to do with the fact that Arkansas has ZERO made threes. I know our offense is "ungood" but there's much more to the game than offense.
Only two turnovers.........against a team that forces turnovers. nice
Foul shooting defense has been outstanding.
Skal scoring 8 and grabbing 5 makes us a much better team.

Wow man. Never will understand stand why veteran posters do this.
Love Willis in the starting lineup and Skal showing some confidence. Keep it up, boys!
It's amazing what happens when you have the right guys going to the line(knock on wood). Skal, Murray, and Ulis all over 70%
Probably a Frat thing. The traditionally black faternities still do that. At least they did when I went to college but that was 12 years ago...haha
Really balanced first half:
Willis - 7 pts., 3 rebs.
Labissiere - 7 pts.
Ulis - 7 pts.
Poythress - 6 pts., 4 rebs.
Statistically he is nowhere close to as bad as Willis. Murray allows 0.86 points per possession, Willis 1.015. This is from Synergy, which does all their statistics based on film, not box score data.
Since we are in Arkansas, couldn't dykes and his jet come out of retirement and do a UK game for old times sake?
We aren't going to start attacking Ulis now are we? Heck, we are winning yet some of you guys are crushing our guys.
Up 12 at the half at Arky? I'll take it all day. concerned about our foul trouble though. Glad to see Skal improving.
Stats lie because anyone looking at Murray can see that he couldn't guard a rock.
Up 12 on the road. Have you watched this team this year. Yikes. It can go bad but let that happen first before you flip out
