[wildcatwelder]

[HenryMuto]

Graphic was wrong that is 4 on Edwards

 

[flacat22]

Ole Miss beat them by 25

So? You mean #19 Ole Miss beat an unranked loservile team?

 

[ck-2]

Kelsey's done a good job with a limited roster and they play their asses off for him. They had Duke on the ropes for 30+ minutes a few days ago. I had a feeling this was going to be a close game. If they continue to hit contested 3s it's gonna get nerve-wracking late.

It’s the uncontested threes that worry me.

 

[ala_kat2]

There’s one all-American on the floor and Hepburn is giving us fits. Butler is having a career game also. Play some defense Cats!

 

[Roe07]

Hepburn is an All American against UK

yep and he's abused Travis Perry the last few possessions

 

[the nail at the foul line]

I think Perry in the game should be an automatic zone

 

[Fox2monk]

Are we ever gonna play defense or change up this PNR?

 

[yes_takeaside]

Can’t shake ‘em

 

[silentsaregolden2.0]

Louisville is shooting out of the asses.

 

[TheDude73]

Hit our threes and these refs can suck it.

 

[ukjenning44]

women’s volleyball knocked out of the tournament by Pitt

 

[Jamal Mercer]

Williams puts no fear into any opposing player driving to the basket. Defense is a concern tonight.

 

[TriCountyCat]

That's three walks this half that haven't been called

My favorite is when Waterman falls to the ground with the ball and then passes. No Travel

 

[mrjuk]

I HATE THAT MIDGET!!! (No offense to short people) ( Sorry “Vertically Challenged” ). I’ll shut up now 😬

 

[Kerry Kat]

Kentucky needs to keep it up

 

[JFCats22]

UK now shooting 71% from the FT line on the season. That has to improve in a big way

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

Amnesia Brea!!!

 

[Titpwhami2014]

Sweep the leg

 

[KyCatFan]

Our defense is freaking horrible today. Amari still standing around in the paint not even trying to challenge anything and the rest of the team not getting out on the 3 point shooters. We'd blow them out of we'd play defense.

 

[megablue]

Refs just decided and-1s were going to be their thing tonight.

Refs have allowed Butler, Carr, Garrison and Williams to push off quite a bit with their off hand … let’s be honest. I just hope they don’t start calling it.

 

[fisherscatfan]

Not sure Perry should be on the floor this game.

 

[ala_kat2]

yep and he's abused Travis Perry the last few possessions

Oh, let’s pick on Perry. Hepburn has abused all our defenders.

 

[Jamal Mercer]

Everything is an and-1 at the hoop on the Louisville end

 

[ck-2]

Six steps in the lane is now ok I guess.

Traveling, passing the ball to yourself,and double dribble calls are a thing of the past.

 

[Mash 2.4]

Ole Miss beat them by 25

So what? You realize teams are different from game to game correct? They’re playing hard and making some tough shots. They have some pretty good pieces.

 

[Lempface]

Be nice if they'd call one travel on the birds...

 

[Chief Paducah]

Louisville is a scrappy bunch. I’ll give them that. We aren’t getting a great whistle at home for sure. They walked 3 straight possessions without a whistle.

 

[JFCats22]

UL shooting 17% better from three tonight than their season average. Just play a little bit of defense and it will drop back down.

Come on Cats!!!

 

[LmdCat]

I get being nice to guys, but it is time for Pope to bury his foot in some backsides if that is what it takes to get them to play defense.

 

[truckbrandon]

Williams puts no fear into any opposing player driving to the basket. Defense is a concern tonight.

Honestly, Carr defends the basket better than Amari... it's puzzling

 

[Kerry Kat]

So? You mean top 25 Ole Miss beat an unranked loservile team?

Kentucky and Louisville can throw out rankings when they match up.

 

[Blue Bigfoot]

We need to put our foot on the gas now.

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

yep and he's abused Travis Perry the last few possessions

Pope having Perry guard Hepburn is quite a head scratcher.

 

[Villecard502]

Louisville is shooting out of the asses.

Yes we are but we aren’t the only team doing that today

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

I HATE THAT MIDGET!!! (No offense to short people) ( Sorry “Vertically Challenged” ). I’ll shut up now 😬

You mean “vertically diverse”

 

[catben]

We just can't keep going under screens, being loose with the ball, not contest shots, give up offensive rebounds, miss FT's and expect to win!!!!

Just clean that crap up and we run away with this one!!!!

We make so many unforced errors that is amazing we are where we are so far this season!!!

 

[ala_kat2]

Our defense is freaking horrible today. Amari still standing around in the paint not even trying to challenge anything and the rest of the team not getting out on the 3 point shooters. We'd blow them out of we'd play defense.

^^^^^^This 100%

I’ve pretty much given up on Williams doing anything and if he does, it is s a pleasant surprise. He plays with his arms down by his side more than any big man I can remember.
