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

[warrior-cat]

VMI is currently #317 in KenPom rankings and UK was a 30+ point favorite.

Good to see us struggling against such a high level opponent.

We are over rated right now as a team. Talent is there, team work needs improvement.

 

[Calsthebomb]

Unless it's a ranked or rival team.

Only florida or Arkansas

 

[Mash 2.4]

Rupp is what it is. The problem is the scheduling. When every big game is a neutral site this is what you get.

 

[Calsthebomb]

It’s deafening if the opponents miss consecutive free throws in the second half, though.

Yep. Pathetic.

 

[JoeBeeHall]

foul problems for vMi yee haw poo on their heads

 

[catben]

Unforced errors KILL ME!!!!

Come on PJ!!

 

[silentsaregolden2.0]

If we would stop ball faking and juking before making a move, we would eliminate 90% of our travel calls. PJ is especially guilty of this.

 

[justin_uk_5]

Not a big time environment at all.

Are you at the game?

 

[bigbluedon]

Here is what to expect at a home game at Rupp. Visiting team will make every three point attempt so please guard them as Cal doesn’t teach 3 point defense. Refs never call a true walking call. They don’t look at feet close enough to make a legit call. These idiot refs call walking because it looks like it. Times have changed drastically and it is sad.

 

[Calsthebomb]

What programs have a big time environment then?

Most arenas are louder than Rupp unless it's a big game.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Rupp is what it is. The problem is the scheduling. When every big game is a neutral site this is what you get.

True.

 

[bookerfan66]

Why don't all these fans bitching about the crowd go to the damn game?

 

[JFCats22]

Most arenas are louder than Rupp unless it's a big game.

Again, which ones? I’ve been to 30+ college arenas and would like to know who you say has a big time environment.

 

[Aike]

Rupp is one of the worst home courts in basketball.

Guess that’s why we never win there.

 

[UKDC80]

We have a bunch of good players. Is what it is.

 

[jameslee32]

Keep generating turnovers, driving to the hoop and everything will be fine.

 

[clew84]

Smart play EJ.

 

[JoeBeeHall]

PRESS THEM

 

[JFCats22]

UK’s defense is pathetically terrible

 

[blubo]

Damn, ugly.

 

[jameslee32]

Only UK travels?

 

[clew84]

This team does not play smart.

 

[catben]

EJ with an offensive foul on one end, then allows an offensive rebound and fouls again on the other end.

 

[MSturgeon]

I mean, if they're literally not gonna miss anything, not a ton you can do.

 

[JFCats22]

We commit some of the dumbest fouls I have ever seen

 

[Notorious23]

They are hitting tough shots, but they will run out of gas soon.

 

[JFCats22]

FYI- VMI lost to Pittsburgh by 40 points.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Sky Richards

 

[Bill - Shy Cat]

UK’s defense is pathetically terrible

Agree. With our athletes, defense should be stifling.

 

[rolaid]

Between our horrible uniforms and the mismatch shoes on several players - this team screams - its all about me - thank goodness for Hagens, Reid and Herro

 

[Notorious23]

Can Hagans score?

 

[loublue22]

name anything Quickley does

 

[clew84]

Brutal to watch

 

[JFCats22]

name anything Quickley does

Clanks threes

 

[jameslee32]

Good hustle by QG.

 

[catben]

Quickly can't throw it in the ocean tonight.

Why are our shooters so inconsistent? I thought that was going to be our strength?

 

[wildcatwelder]

Once we learn to play team defense we will see our potential.

 

[2Dope15]

Is this game just boring or is it me.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

It is time to let Cal coach defense and anybody but Cal to coach the offense.

 

[JFCats22]

This game is brutal to watch

 

[silentsaregolden2.0]

Good Lord, I shudder to think what Kansas is going to do to us.
