********OFFICIAL GAME THREAD********

[Blue_Reality]

Recruiting tip Cal...........Recruit someone that can shoot the damn ball....

 

[clew84]

EKU should play a zone.

 

[UkCats9]

Texas A&M is going to win the SEC. News to me.

The way it's looking Vandy and LSU will be competing for third.

 

[UKWildcats#8]

This team is just not very good right now. I'm sorry, just have to call it how I see it. No effort, can't shoot, sloppy turnovers, poor D, FT shooting is inconsistent at times, etc.

 

[zannmann]

Where has the D gone that this team played against Duke?

 

[loublue22]

again, we can't really guard any of their players one on one

 

[UkCats9]

Jay Williams thinks now that Kornet is our, TAM will win the SEC.. Effectively saying that UK is the 3rd best team.. Lmfao. Ok man..

Look at how we've played this season. Can't argue with that statement.

 

[clew84]

This team seems to have taken multiple steps back since Duke.

Just baffling.

 

[zannmann]

Look at how we've played this season. Can't argue with that statement.

Dude we beat Duke by 11 on a neutral court. This team is good.

 

[GOING FOR #9]

Poythress play with some effing anger!

 

[GOING FOR #9]

I want to see poythress get into a fight. He doesn't fight he passive. He's gotta fix his mentality

 

[loublue22]

way to fall for that flopping bullshit there ref

 

[Noxium]

Refs are a joke.

 

[BostonCat2001]

alex makes an amazing play and finishes. nothing from the crowd

 

[loublue22]

I guess it's legal to trip Jamal Murray

 

[UkCats9]

Way to go Murray. That is our offense. Drive it and hope for fouls and throw up prayers.

 

[Wildcat-in-STL]

Omg. Is there a bounty out against Murray? Officials are raping him before our eyes

 

[Wildcat-in-STL]

Sure blame Murray for being tripped

 

[Hjack]

Our defense absolutely sucks.

 

[loublue22]

Murray might as well be Aaron Harrison out there

 

[clew84]

Left the feet. Again.

 

[fatguy87]

alex makes an amazing play and finishes. nothing from the crowd

That doesn't fit the pervasive "Alex doesn't play hard" meme. It's better to not acknowledge something that runs counter to one's own preconceived notions.

 

[loublue22]

****ing ridiculous shot

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Do you guys realize that this is the first game the people in the lower arena have had one of their own to root for?

 

[UkCats9]

alex makes an amazing play and finishes. nothing from the crowd

Are you surprised? RUPP is a morgue most nights. Puts me to sleep.

 

[wildcatwelder]

Left the feet. Again.

I can't understand that; it's not just one player, they all fall for a head fake.

 

[UKCatsFan10]

Best defensive possession in a while there ends in an EKU 3... That's alright though, keep that effort up and they will struggle.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

Does anyone see us finding an outside shooter this season? If not, it will be nothing sagging zones come tourney time.

 

[Wildcat-in-STL]

Are the refs sure they don't want to call the foul on skal? I mean he had the hit coming his way for wearing a UK jersey. These Officials are calling the game for the point spread

 

[Wall2Boogie]

Who is the dancing blue douchebag that rubs his nuts on the hand rails at every UK home game he's gotta post here

 

[zannmann]

Maryland ain't gonna win chit.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Seriously..can we duct tape Duke to our Jerseys for some games? Not sure how we have yet to have a real home cooked game this year..

 

[loublue22]

I think all their points are off ball fakes

 

[LineSkiCat14]

They are calling it because Kentucky is full of NBA talent. I've said this for years.. It's the Goliath effect.. It's the " you're bigger than him, deal with it" mentality that is told to the bigger older brother.

Cal also doesn't dig into the officials all the time.. Like you know who.

 

[UKWildcats#8]

This team just does NOT know how to blow someone out. I am glad I went to the NJIT game in person as that is about the only game they stepped on the throat and blew someone out decently. The South Florida game was fine considering Ulis was out, but otherwise...blah.

 

[Noxium]

Is Willis jealous of Perry Ellis?

 

[zannmann]

I hope Willis didn't pay for that crap on his head, I hope that was an experiment done for free.

 

[clew84]

So weak inside. Skal is useless on D.

This is not an enjoyable team to watch right now. I'm sorry to be negative but UK should be embarrassed to be up less than 20.

 

[UKCatsFan10]

Does anyone see us finding an outside shooter this season? If not, it will be nothing sagging zones come tourney time.

Murray will knock down shots, and so will Ulis. We are in a slump. We won't continue shooting this poorly for the entire season, and when we find that shot it will open up the paint tremendously. Right now no one respects our shooters, and for good reason.

 

[JerseyCat84]

They are calling it because Kentucky is full of NBA talent. I've said this for years.. It's the Goliath effect.. It's the " you're bigger than him, deal with it" mentality that is told to the bigger older brother.

Cal also doesn't dig into the officials all the time.. Like you know who.

How come Duke or UNC doesn't suffer at the refs hands due to this "Goliath effect"?
