Official Game Thread: Kentucky vs. Louisville 12-14-24

[Digger-Cat]

I need to see 40 full minutes of effort from this team before I am ready to say they are a serious contender. They can't just come out in a burst and then piss out for the rest of the first half like this. Gonna bite them in the big games.

I know this can change, but we are too much of a finesse tesm. We're really going to struggle against Auburn, Bama, aTm and UT.
But, we stepped up against Duke when it got physical, so we CAN play that way.

 

[EliteBlue]

L hit a bunch of step back 3s w hands in their faces. I expect those to not fall as much in the second half

We need to focus on cleaning up the glass and we’ll be fine

 

[Cowtown Cat]

That’s true. Pat Adams killing us as usual.

This! Every time the ball has went OOB, he’s awarded it to Louisville, damn near.

 

[NociHTTP]

I much prefer Butler, but I would like to have Hepburn. He is a player. He reminds me of those typical Auburn guards.

6'2" with the fro, 4'8" without. Wheeler Elite.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Wow Auburn dominated Ohio State.

Blue blood

 

[LmdCat]

I can't believe how we stand around giving teams wide open shots.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Man where is our defense?

 

[OneSpeedyBoi96]

Keep the foot on the gas pedal, don't make them believe!

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Cliff Hawkins
DeAndre Liggins
Lamont Butler

Our three best junkyard dogs in the last 20 years.

 

[LmdCat]

We have become a lazy defensive team.

 

[crawfords corner]

Stupid shot Oweh

 

[shaudyshaud]

Lamont 🔥🔥🔥

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

THERE WE GO SWATTT

 

[darkshadesofblue]

bad shot selection by Oweh

 

[ukjenning44]

Where is our defense?

 

[pauled]

Cats are letting one little guy kill them!

 

[katwest]

Getting out hustled already.

 

[flacat22]

70% from the field and only up 6 go figure

How many times are you gonna post this irrelevant stuff

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Chuck embarrassing Williams.

Thank God butler played today.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Yeah just let him drive to the basket come on!

 

[Warf2012]

That Italian ref has been trash ever since the crowd chanted he sucked.

 

[NociHTTP]

That's TWICE now that I've seen Williams ignore the first option in favor of Jaxson. Amari doesn't impress me.

And then Otega takes a terrible shot on one end, and STANDS THERE on the other end as the guy drives to the basket for an and-1.

 

[catben]

I really wish we had redshirted one of Noah, Perry, or Chandler this season and expanded their longevity with the program by a season.

It's the kind of thing I wish Pitino had done with Allen Edwards.

Pitino did it with Prickett and Sheppard during their JR seasons!!

Pope could do the same if needed.

 

[crawfords corner]

I know we want to get shots quickly, but we take a lot of stupid shots

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Are we really 70% 😳

 

[darkshadesofblue]

He’ll yeah

 

[gharding07]

Lmao why would they EVER double Garrison??? Easy open 3s.

 

[flacat22]

Blue blood

Lol, Denim?

 

[JFCats22]

Nice start, let’s go!!!

 

[BlueRunner11]

Butler on fire. Remember when posters said he wouldn’t start lol

 

[J-Ryan]

Butler is on fire.

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Garrison at the right spot at the right time

 

[NociHTTP]

If Oweh is just going to stand there and do nothing, then sit him.

 

[crawfords corner]

Bout time we got one of those breaks.... still owed a lot more

 

[darkshadesofblue]

Let Extend this!!!

 

[BBUK]

CATS CATS CATS CATS CATS CATS CATS CATS!!!!

 

[Lempface]

Did Butler's ankle fix his 3 ball? Wow 5/5!

 

[silentsaregolden2.0]

Butler is 5 for 5 from 3.

 

[Jamal Mercer]

Pat Adams will get Louisville back in this game. He seems to be one of his prick missions tonight.

 

[TriCountyCat]

If I were Louisville I would drive the ball. I’ve never witnessed so many anticipated fouls that aren’t happening in all my life
