That's true for all SEC teams. Road wins will be hard to come by.
I don't see how its mind boggling to say we struggle with physical teams. This is a finnesse team. WKU, Clemson, and now Ohio state have given us isuses. Some of our guys are just soft. Still, I'm not mad at all. 10-2 with a team of so-so talent. With wins over Duke and Gonzaga.
"Still, I'm not mad at all. 10-2 with a team of so-so talent. With wins over Duke and Gonzaga."
Whats sad is how many suddenly get juiced up to post a lot only when we lose….. so 💩
I'm literally just saying we struggle with physical play. It's a fact. Hopefully Pope can fix it. But the season so far is gravy. Who expected to beat Gonzaga and Duke? I know I didn't. I expected 22 wins. And I still do.
The OP isn't talking about tonight's game, which would be fine. It happened.
I don't see anyone giving up on the season but I can see why the OP has concerns. This Ohio St. team was beaten by 40 by Auburn and by 30 by Maryland. It's concerning. UK has struggled against physical teams so far and the SEC is full of physical teams. I think that's why the OP has the opinion he has.
This embarrassment had nothing to do with the fans. This team was exposed in a very raw and ugly way. This team has lost its fight and any desire to play as a team. Our bigs play like they are closer to 6'6" than nearly 7 foot like they are. We couldn't score on basic drives to the basket against a team without any real low-post presence. Either the team has stopped running the offense or the offense flat-out stinks. This team is a collection of leftover parts that don't currently work well enough together to avoid getting eaten alive in conference play.
You same guys were predicting 5-5 start to the season Here we are 10-2. and undefeated in Rupp. We don’t need Chicken Little fans who always bring nothing to the conversation but The Sky is Falling
What did you see from last night that makes you think there is an easy fix. The word on the street is that this team is soft and if you knock them around early, they will curl into a fetal position and give up. These players are missing what Pope can't give them, HEART.
No one other than you have stated that Pope is a genius. To criticize Pope at this point is to suggest that there is someone else who could do a better job with this collection of players. If you believe there is someone else, I will hangup and listen. Otherwise, Pope has done a heck of a job in bringing in a bunch of spare parts at the last minute and getting them to play as well as they have. I don't believe any other coach could have done it. If it doesn't last, he has still achieved things that our previous coach wasn't able to do.
What’s sad is how a fanbase judges the hell outta each other lol.. It’s like a clan of nerds/ virgin get on here to protect their program ( that 90% never attended ) also to which probably never played the sport. It’s a forum lmao, OPINIONS are like assholes , everybody’s got one 👍 Yep, we lost and played like shit ( that’s fact ) no sugar coating and no sunshine pumping douche bag can change it.
So you go on a rant about judging opinions while judging an opinion an opinion board. Hypocrisy at its finest hour. 😂
I can't speak for others, but I post the good, bad, and ugly. I have done this since I have been on this board. When my posts align with certain posters, my posts receive kudos and when not, I am criticized. Doesn't much matter to me which I receive because I will continue to post as I see it.
Says the guy that joined right after Cal quit and clearly got agitated reading a post about only posting when things are bad. Enjoy the rest of your life since I wont see any if it.
Yeh.. actually , got banned BECAUSE of Cal lol.. On here for a minute bro.. You on the other hand, just recently 🤔 Honestly though, I could care less how long you’ve been on here lol.
