I called it the other day in a thread, every visiting team shoots 70% on our rims from deep.
Kentucky vs Arkansas Game Thread
- Thread starter Farsight
- Start date
How about we are shooting 70% from the 3 and losing. Unreal.
Gave up 50% from the 3 and they hit 9 3s.
Frustrating

We will be alright.. believe boys
If we hit our free throws and quit throwing it away, we are by about six points. If I were Cal, I’d be pissed off asking them how come they don’t play like this every game.
Whatever dude, you can look for light, or you can look for shit, you do you
The media is all Cal…. Cal….. Cal……
Nothing about Pope Nothing about UK…..
I’m sick of this Cal…. Cal….. Cal….. crap

Can't lose this game like if we only won 1 more game all year it has to be this one
Cal shittalked the fans for years about not needing to shoot threes to win.
So, of course, Arkansas is 9/18 from three in the first half.
We had complete games where we didn't attempt 18 threes when he was here.
Just when you didn't think it was possible to hate him more.

wasn’t expecting the supporting cast to go off. well, they just went +10 on their highest scoring half of the sec season. previously ark had never scored more than 36 points in ANY half. edit - i was wrong, 38 was their high.
Do not take perry over the court
Except that 3
Pathetic in this game
Eaten by everyone he guarded
Play chadler more

Our team simply sucks at FTs and defense. No way around that.
IF Arkansas keeps shooting like they did in the first half, we will lose. No way around it. We better hope our offense keeps it up or gets better and that Arkansas reverts back to their average. But Cal was always good for a bit upset on the road. And he’s on the road tonight.

Not too worried. Arkansas can't keep up the 3pt shooting. They just can't. And, we have Pope at halftime making adjustments. They have Cal. Tighten up the TOs, and wait for them to cool off from 3. We're good.
On the plus side, Arkansas hit 9 threes and turned us over a ton and we're only down by one.
Pope has to out adjust Calipari.

Well, don't forget it's not JUST that they only make 4, but they will still take 15-20 for 20-25%
They have scored 70 one time in conference play and just hung 46 on us in 20 minutes. We are so bad defensively anyone can beat us at anytime. We have to make a crazy amount of shots just to keep up. So far we've done that pretty well but our margin for error is tiny.
Offensively we looked good, We just played half ass defense. I haven’t seen Arky play this hard all year. Lol
Yeah it's not the shitty D.
I thought Arkansas only chance of winning was turning this to a slow physical grind it out rock fight .
I didn’t see it playing out this way in the first half

Embarrassing half. You get 45 in rupp against an offense like Arkansas and you should be up 15-20 points.
Because we are letting them. There is zero reason to be this bad defensively.
that one was not wide open. their shooting like it’s nba jam.
We really miss healthy Lamont Butler. Garrison giving negative minutes. Perry looking like a 13th man thrust into action. Carr stiff on D. Team defensive lapses galore. Rough first half. Cannot lose this game.
Pope ffs man, you've had months to work on defense. For this team to still be that bad on defense is terrible.
And anyone saying "the law of averages" will bring Arkansas down in the second half, I have a feeling those bums will keep shooting out of their asses. Hope not cause that was ridiculous.

Our turnovers are skyrocketing with Butler out.
The turnovers were the most frustrating. Half them were just idiotic choices or fumbles.
Why tf was Williams sitting on the bench the last 2 minutes of the half?!?!
I was slightly nervous...then I saw Brad whispering advice/observations into Cal's ear, and it had a soothing affect
