UK vs Ohio St Game Thread

I said it a few weeks back, I felt like we were a bit of a fraud. Teams are figuring us out and our offense looks to be getting less and less effective by the game.

Don't be surprised if we drop like a stone. We just aren't physical enough, this mi-major finesse crap isn't going to work.
This really sucks to say, but if we don’t figure something out and we play like this we will have a losing record in the SEC and struggle to make the NCAA tournament. It will be an embarrassment. Ohio State is one of the worst teams we will play the rest of the season. Outside of LSU and South Carolina, every game we play will be harder than this.
 
We need this loss and honestly if we lose I hope they end up keeping this lead and beating us big. Maybe this will get the guys to start playing with some tenacity and intensity from the jump
 
What a weird season.

Instead of losing to probable future #1 seeds - Duke and Gonzaga - we ended up losing to a future 8 or 9 seed Clemson and an NIT-bound Ohio State team.

Same game plan by every opponent:

Be extremely physical, and slow the game to a crawl.

Awful to watch, and the free throws won’t be enough to overcome how much this style disrupts what we’re trying to do.

We need some elite college (first round or lotto nba level) talent. UK has never won a national title or made a final four the last 45 years without it.

These OSU players will NEVER shoot the ball this good again the rest of this season. But who cares because we can’t match them tonight for some reason.

Why is it such a struggle against this mediocre bunch???!!!!
