Kentucky vs. Clemson Game Thread

[CatOfDaVille]

We got the wrong guy shooting the threes.

Nah. He's had three good looks. He can make those.

 

[AJG-15]

Our last 3 shots from 3 pts shooter by Oweh… all missed…. Cause his legs are gone while Brea and Almonor sitting on the bench ….. This loss is on Pope.

Wrong rotations, no game adjustments in offense or defense and for the first time he drain the starters of energy and ideas…

 

[gracetoyou]

Brea needs to be on the court. We've go to score.

 

[fisherscatfan]

DRIVE THE BALL

Outside Oweh and Butler they can’t.

 

[UKDC80]

Should have went to bed at half.

 

[crawfords corner]

Best 3pt shooter is on the bench because he can't guard. He really better work on that

 

[TriCountyCat]

We didn’t make shots, this is what happens.

 

[ChicagoCat1990]

Didn't hit open shots and they hit everything from fadeaways, banked 3's, 3's by statistically bad shooters etc. that's the game.

 

[LmdCat]

We missed enough shots under the basket and free throws to win this game. Also, Kentucky got flat out bullied tonight.

 

[fatguy87]

Hah! Yeah. Not in the cards tonight. Getting hit hard by some 3 point shooting mean regression.

 

[BCD]

Hopefully we get focused for the Zags.

 

[MbergCat]

This loss stings. Much of it is effort. This Clemson team kinda sucks. And Pope has coached very poorly.

 

[CUJO_1970]

Oweh bricks seal it for us. Had a chance

 

[Mike-McD]

Guys we have no go-to player. I hate to say this but it looks like we're in for a long season with 12 tournament teams in the SEC this year.

 

[bookerfan66]

Not our night shooting. Bummer

3 games in a row we can't hit a 3.

 

[Blue_2_the_bone]

Lots of rotation/min questions tonight, on top of not hitting some wide open three, and terrible straight line defense. Clemson will be a top 20 team next week, not really concerned as long as they learn from it for the matchup Saturday. If not we will leave this week 7-2

Yup. Surprised we didn’t see Carr at the 5 with Brea in as another shooter. Only took 3 shots.

 

[I-Move-Like-The-Pope]

Where is Brea??

 

[HerrosHeroes]

6 for 25 is not going to cut it v solid comp on the road.
UK has shot poorly from 3 three straight games. Disturbing.

 

[bbncal02]

Still with Pope by far, but man, he's not had a good coaching night either.

 

[CatOfDaVille]

BS call

 

[bnewt]

How big is that banked in 3 now

 

[Fox2monk]

Late ass doul

 

[G0 B1G BLUE]

im gonna be scratching my head over this one coach. You need a shooter in there? And you leave the best in the country on the bench. Don’t get it.

 

[NoDef]

First team we have played with a pulse outside of a Duke and held in the 60's. It's a tough SEC this year and I don't look to be very good in basketball and really bad in football.

 

[Midway Cat]

Oweh is not our best shooter. He really shouldn't be the guy taking 3s at the end of the game.

Looks like we won't even get into the bonus in the second half. Literally the worst officiating I've seen all year. Just a complete embarrassment.

 

[Soupbean]

I had kills us late. 3 missed and really dumb foul

 

[blackcat714]

Robinson is soft. Sorry to say.

Pope gonna live or die with Robinson like Cal is with wagner

Brea needs to be on the court. We've go to score.

Pope the dope gonna ride with Robinson

 

[LineSkiCat14]

UK AD and Boosters need to come away with this and think "we HAVE to help get Pope talent".

 

[TyCatPrice14]

Nothing like missing a shot or two and then going on the other end and causing a foul...come on man.

 

[JimboBBN]

Oweh cost us down the stretch

 

[crawfords corner]

Offense for defense sub for Brea or vice versa. its too late to be thinking hard lol

 

[LmdCat]

We play with no energy and no sense of urgency.

 

[bnewt]

Again Williams did not slide over and stop the drive

 

[CUJO_1970]

Where is Brea??

He can’t get open

 

[ala_kat2]

Oweh’s especially. That’s why his shot was so flat the last 5 minutes.

Wonder what’s up w Breas playing time

Brea is not too good on defense and can’t drive it through trough defense. Clemson made sure he didn’t have any room to shoot threes.

 

[Lempface]

Welp, shoot 24% from 3 and get your best shooter 2 looks? Yeah, not gonna win ANY of those.

 

[shaudyshaud]

Yea Oweh keep shooting. You’ll hit one out of twenty

Wide open shots though .

 

[Fox2monk]

I was on a plane for a good portion of the game. Why isn't Brea in there here at the end of the game?

Hadn’t played much second half.

 

[Soupbean]

Is he really putting in Brea now? Come on Mark you’re better than that

 

[EliteBlue]

Oh look. A soft foul to seal the game….almost like that hasn’t been called the opposite way all game.

This was a controlled outcome. Whether it’s from Vegas or bc it’s a made for TV game and the ACC needed the win

They’ve been allowed to hit and bang every drive, every play.
