Wee need to rack up some wins this NCAAT and get back to something that resembles a Blue Blood program
You could tell Butler was happy to be apart of Coach Pope's First tournament win!
It does hurt the futher you go tho. You are proud but when you are so close and get robbed… man.
They can beat us. Especially if they come out in Dr. Jekyll mode. If they come out in Mr Hyde we can beat them easily.
It does. But we know we probably aren't making the E8 and beyond. Not this banged up. We will see what happens. But if we can get to the S16, I'll be pretty happy.
8 SEC Teams into the Rd of 32. A record.
Love this team, it’s been a fun year and exciting to watch, if they were healthy they would make a lot of noise in this tournament. Great to see them all smiles and cheering for each other before, during and after the game. You can tell they genuinely like each other and get along and they seem to love Pope. UK has a great future under Pope, hope Chandler and Owen stick around, so much fun to watch. Chandler will be a scoring beast moving forward, especially under Popes offense.
I don't think turning the ball over 10 times to Troy and jacking up a lot bad 3s was a good game plan. A good game plan would have been one that pounded the ball under the basket. But I guess they may not have worked because Williams wouldn't jump even when he got the ball down low. His last miss under the basket was probably the most embarrassing one.
Ohhhhh look who broke his cherry. Let's go Pope!
Did you not read where I said it was a solid defensive gameplan. Bro, be happy. We won
Won't know until tomorrow more than likely. Or late late tonight. I'd guess 2 or 5.
I am happy that we won, but that doesn't negate the fact that we didn't play smartly.
Barkley saying he went to Auburn cause they sucked at Basketball and he wanted playing time lol
l know you are one of those guys who is just happy to be in the tourney and that type of mentality is why we have gotten bounce early the last several years.
Lamont Butler +22 despite no points.
happy for pope man, he got the tourney win thing done with
No doubt but I'm ready for that. I've had enough being pissed before the opening weekend is done.
You’d be shocked to find out I have nothing to do with outcome whatsoever. I’m just a fan. Can we happy instead of arguing about literally nothing? I’m sure you can find some Rottweiler in the comments that would love to be angry. I’m happy
We played great at times. We played dumb as hell at points.
You might say it was the best of times. It was the worst of times. A Tale of Two Kitties.
Mmmn Blue Moon.
Southern Illinois has more KY fans than Illinois.
Butler did what we needed from him. However, my heart missed a beat when he drove the ball into the lane. I was hoping we would not get taken down.
He had some turnovers, but he steadied our ball handling. Having him play 20+ minutes is much better handling lineup on average than relying on Chandler/Perry with those minutes.
Really hmm I didn't know that.
I think the team and coach felt the pressure much more than they wanted to admit.
I believe we see a completely different team Sunday.

Yeah, KY was on TV there when Illinois wasn't.
