***** Official Bama vs Kentucky Game Thread *****

[$Z71$]

We are shooting 70.6% from 2 and 3 today INSANE

That's what happens when we play a defense worse than ours. This is fun!

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

If Cal doesn’t play Big Z more, I’m going to be so upset!

Haha. Hard to find anything to be upset about today….. but I really do believe he’s the missing piece. We aren’t going to morph into an A+ defensive team at this point. Just play B defense and A to A+ offense and win.

Z gives us a whole new weapon compared to the other Centers

 

[BBUK]

This is embarrassing for Bama.

 

[$Z71$]

Eff no. Crush them. This was our last really tough game. Need to win out.

I want a 40 point W.

 

[rick64]

Please have mercy!! These Bama players have families. 😆

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Actually the defense should go up.

We are playing the top rated offense. I have to imagine we are holding them to less than what was expected.

Is it more than just point per possession? I figured the SOS might go into the total KP ranking.. but D and O metrics were just purely PPP.

 

[HenryMuto]

Should be 14/20 from 3 but lost 2 of those

 

[bbncal02]

lol. Bama shooting 54 percent. And getting KILLED.

 

[ck-2]

Oats getting outcoached!

I’m not trying to defend Oats, but he just ran into a buzz saw today.

 

[GoBigBlue1280]

Mark Story and his little article might deserve an assist for this beat down!

 

[jameslee32]

this is why you have to give Z extended minutes and let him play through struggles

Sure and sadly still tough to play him in a halfcourt game.
But that's for tomorrow. Today he's amazing.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Can we please do this to UT?

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

Oates, lmfao.

 

[Fox2monk]

104 with 7 minutes left. This team man.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

😂Stick to football Bama

 

[kywildcat41035]

Really why can’t we play like this every single game!!!!

 

[CatOfDaVille]

Our offensive metrics gonna sky rocket, and with Bamas coming down... could we be #1?

Defensive metrics might not change much.. but having a 34pt lead over the #1 offense, should count for something on our defense.

I'd say we'd have to improve in our defensive numbers if this holds. Keeping the #1 offense well below their average is huge.

Bama is also #4 in the NET, and I believe it takes into account margin of victory so we should make a nice jump there as well.

 

[ck-2]

He's coached it to a 104-69 lead against Nate Oats...

Remember last game? Give it up Ellen

 

[bbncal02]

So no foul in Bradshaw. But then that’s a foul. Clown ass refs.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

I feel bad for Bradshaw but he is just so weak

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Bradshaw oof

 

[HenryMuto]

27 for LSU in 1st half buddy

 

[shaudyshaud]

Sure and sadly still tough to play him in a halfcourt game.
But that's for tomorrow. Today he's amazing.

Gotta figure it out

 

[kywildcat41035]

Sheppard should’ve shot that…. How the hell does a 7’ get blocked on the 3 point line??????

 

[fatguy87]

Actually the defense should go up.

We are playing the top rated offense. I have to imagine we are holding them to less than what was expected.

Just checked they were predicted to put up 1.17 points per poss vs our defense.

Not sure where they are at but it's nowhere near that lol

I got about 63 possessions so far in this game. It will be close and depending on how well we defend during garbage time lol

 

[permdaddy]

Bradshaw has been so disappointing. Physically weak, unathletic and not that skilled

 

[cathouse]

Now watch this lineup.

 

[GLR5555]

Bradshaw is a 3 star.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

So no foul in Bradshaw. But then that’s a foul. Clown ass refs.

Bradshaw one was clean he just needs to be stronger with the ball

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

WHAT IN THE HELL IS HAPPENING

Kentucky is like the bipolar kid who is on their meds today.

Against LSU, they were off our meds.

 

[jameslee32]

ED still perfect!
Brad on the offensive glass. Putback! Great play!

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Can we please do this to UT?

We owe them x10 over

 

[ArtLaibsGhost]

This is Not the lineup to play

 

[CatsFan4Evr.]

Edwards is nuclear right now

 

[The_Answer1313]

Is it more than just point per possession? I figured the SOS might go into the total KP ranking.. but D and O metrics were just purely PPP.

The adjusted numbers SOS is factored in but that shouldn't really factor things too much.

They were predicted to score 88 in 75 poss based on our defensive ranking and their offense.

This has actually been pretty decent defensively

 

[Fox2monk]

Edward’s better get postgame duty today. Even Bradshaw playing tough wow.

 

[Lazlo7]

Cats scaring some people today. When they are on nobody is going to want any. They just showed the 4 #1 seeds as of today none of them would want to play the Cats.

 

[bbncal02]

THATS NOT A FOUL


Refs gonna tweet everything now. Just to keep it close.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Just because the bama player screams and flails his damn neck doesn’t make it a foul. Wagner got all ball on that play

 

[NociHTTP]

Bradshaw like "gimme that sheet, I ain't leav'n with zero"
