Kentucky vs. Clemson Game Thread

[The_Catfather]

I didn't know Zach de la Rocha could ball like that.

 

[bbncal02]

Whelp, going to radio.

This is gonna hurt.

 

[ChicagoCat1990]

The weakest fouls I've ever seen called. Butler got absolutely trucked by their big earlier with no call and they blow it on that flop.

 

[Terrapin_Station]

Butler back-to-back terrible plays. Instead of grabbing the ball with two hands, he tried to tip it and then the next play down an offensive foul.

 

[Someguywhodoesntlikeyou]

I wish people would stop blaming the officiating

 

[Farsight]

How these refs worse at Clemson then when we played Duke?

 

[BlueRunner11]

Butler get fouled on that break. BS

 

[Seth_C]

These refs are going to call absolutely anything the fans tell them the rest of this game.

 

[bnewt]

Is Williams ever going to slide over and block a shot

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Road game or not it’s painfully obvious that Amari Williams is a weak link and is being used in ways that do not align with his abilities. It’s a disaster and it’s my biggest criticism of Mark Pope to this point. He sees this guy day and day out in practice and throws him out there expecting him to be different?

Pope still has a lot to learn to be a successful coach long term.

 

[ManitouDan]

Not playing Butler this stretch is going to cost us the game, really don’t get this decision to play Krissa

Why is Butler on the bench?

Weird rotations tonight

Where is Butler damn play the best PG we have!!!

Anyone know why Butler is on the bench?

All of the above are correct …. WTH ???

 

[Roe07]

just not our night

 

[Warf2012]

We have played absolutely retarded tonight. Carr
Should put a Clemson jersey on because he’s helped them more than UK.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

BUTLER WAS RAKED - NO CALL

REFS ARE KILLING ME TODAY.

 

[ukwazoo]

Butler gets us even, Pope takes him out. Butler gets us even, Pope takes him out. Rinse and repeat. Let the kid play.

Yeah he's played 14 mins

 

[Farsight]

I wish people would stop blaming the officiating

It's literally our fault and the refs fault.

 

[megablue]

Carr is simply a support player, not a star.

 

[EliteBlue]

Poorly officiated game with a lot of swing calls and lopsidedness. Wonder what the money rolling in on betting apps was given most ppl anticipated a top 5 undefeated UK to win and the line was only 1.

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

I like Carr, but I expected him to be the most prepared for this environment. He played at Wake.

 

[Seth_C]

Yeah. Huh. These refs are getting interesting.

 

[Digger-Cat]

Yup, looks like we're going to be the stinky kid in class. The only SEC team to lose. Awesome.

 

[catben]

3 straight turnovers!!!

Get our shooters some open looks!!!

Stop with the Post offense that gets us NOTHING!!!

 

[CUJO_1970]

A lot of things going wrong tonight - but Clemson is out working us and clearly want it more.

 

[UKDC80]

Too much time left.

No

 

[R.O.T.Muckinfush]

Carr has played horribly

 

[bnewt]

Uk looks absolutely like freshmen

 

[fisherscatfan]

Not sure I am seeing anything from UK tonight that makes me believe Pope is running anything to get our shooters open.

 

[Terrapin_Station]

Enjoy the season guys. But understand that this team with these bigs has zero chance to make any noise. This team has a lot of issues, but these three bigs are just not good.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

UK with 54 points at this point in the game is an abomination.

 

[Codeartist]

It's alright, the start to this season was better than anything I was expecting so Pope is still doing an amazing job as far as I'm concerned.

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

This is about the time we wore Duke down

 

[Farsight]

Its Roger Ayers man. He literally SHOULD have called a tech on that wiggings guy for slamming the ball. But he didn't. Dude is playing for vegas money. I watched him and he's one of the worst.

 

[bookerfan66]

Pope is doing Cal like adjustments tonight.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

This game might be a 20 pt blowout by us if played at Rupp/played in Duke jerseys

 

[ukjenning44]

Butler must be hurt

 

[jr40831]

Well at least UL fans can claim a win over UK by proxy.

 

[UKSanders]

Dykes "Clemson does a good job of playing physical without fouling."

Then Amari Wiilliams scores, and Dykes says, "Strong score, and he took a pretty big hit"

Irony?

I mean, it's easy to stay out of foul trouble if you can deliver big hits without getting a foul called on you

 

[Mike-McD]

I will say this, our guys don't quit

 

[The_Catfather]

Enjoy the season guys. But understand that this team with these bigs has zero chance to make any noise. This team has a lot of issues, but these three bigs are just not good.

Hold away despair my friend. Still a long season ahead. Vegas had this a close game and I expected it.

Oweh forced that
