True that but it’s crazy how much confidence these dudes play with in Rupp. It’s old and we have to start intimidating them a bit or at least play some defense. They iso’ed the hell of us late second half and we couldn’t get a stop.
ESPECIALLY Edwards! Why in the hell was Cal insisting on him guarding that dude?! He didn’t stop him. Not one damn time! Unbelievable. Cal’s a fvcking dipshit!
Yeah but we were in so much foul trouble, which is dumb AF because we drove all game and weren’t in the bonus until the very end. They were in the bonus after 7 minutes of the half.
That bald white ref was abysmal. Called touch fouls several times on guys with 2-3 already.
My wife bitches about Rupp every game just about. Lackadaisical atmosphere.
It lets the opponent gain momentum and beer muscles every game. That one dude White was unconscious. You would have thought he was a five star.
I have had some opportunities to go to Rupp (work tickets) and I turned them down. I hate going to UK games anymore. I used to go to almost every one of them in college. I hate going to football games, although, I went to the Alabama game because my friend is a Bama fan, bought some tickets, and decided not to go (free tickets), and gave them to me, so I felt wrong to NOT go. The environment is so stale; the students don't care, and the pep band, as mediocre as it is, plays incessantly, and if by some miracle, the pep band isn't playing, they have some garbage music blaring through the speakers. It's just too much for me anymore. I have been going to Women's bball games (they had the Alumni Band - played much less, and it was enjoyable), soccer games, and baseball games, and those are so much more enjoyable.
Yes. He markets the program well. Better than any other coach in our history. Shame we have a few entitled fans that use this to demean the program by misquoting and twisting the marketing commentary out of context. Embarrassing to the rest of the fanbase.
I mean, you kind of did:
Not sure if serious. So it happens once or twice a decade at those places, and it happens at least once or twice a year in Rupp. Regardless, my point still stands. We can argue semantics all you want, but a little critical thinking goes a long way.
My point is we don't watch those other programs nearly as close as we watch UK, so of course we think it happens more here. What we can probably agree on is that losing to teams like UNCW and Evansville is unacceptable.
Despite coming off the bench, he averages just under 20 a game and that was his 4th game in 8 tries getting more than 20. No difference in Reed for us. His play should not be a surprise but cal likely had no clue who he was.
I've been to a handful. I used to travel to every post-season game and conference tourney, including some road games. I live in another state. I'm not allowed to have an opinion based on what is blatantly obvious to a viewer? I could hear shoes squeaking and coaches calling out to players at one point during the UNCW game.
This is of course ignoring UK's astonishing record at Rupp. Better than all these other schools and gyms you so envy. 88.4% at Rupp 88.9% at Memorial, Cameron 84.7%, Phog 87.4%, Assembly Hall 83.2%, Smith Center 84.4%, Breslin 86.8%, O dome78.4%
Rupp wasn't open in the 50's. Your post really makes no sense on any level. Have the conditions of winning at home or Rupp itself changed that much? If you wish to be selective you can start at 2015-2016 and UK has won 87.4 % at Rupp since then. If you include 2015 we are back up to the historical standard.
No one is arguing semantics, they're arguing you have no data to support those other sites (or even ours, really).
And how freakin sad is it when the only way that blacks can end this so called generational poverty is to play a child’s game and not do anything meaningful with their lives
Yeah, we only have the 3rd best record at home in college since 2005. I mean hell, 20 years ago we were doing so much better.
This may be the most racist thing I’ve seen on here, and that’s saying something.
That is a factor. That’s one of the reasons that Allen Field House and Cameron are so hard to play in.
