Wagner, Adou, Z booed

[JFCats22]

All three were loudly booed

 

[JimboBBN]

Good. Hope they get obliterated tonight

 

[ukcatz12]

I’d be lying if I said this doesn’t makes me slightly worried it’ll really motivate them to play better than they have all year.

Hope it motivates them to take many more threes than they were originally planning on.

Vanderbilt University is real confused here, seeing the opponent on their court before a game.

 

[PhattyJ4UK]

Students gonna boo everyone

Curious about the actual game entrance

 

[Terrapin_Station]

I’d be lying if I didn’t say this makes me slightly worried it’ll really motivate them to play better than they have all year.

They can’t play better. Wagner and Z are incapable. Adou averages only 16ppg because Wagner, Davis, (Fland) don’t pass the ball. And we can leave him wide open behind the arc.

What if Z makes a lot of 3 over amari

 

[YardCat]

Brazil looks like that NBA chick that was arrested in Russia. Look at the video of Wagner and Brazil strolling around

Of course they can play better. Any team or player is capable of pulling a crazy performance out of their ass. 9-11 Kansas St. just went into Iowa St. and won by 19. If they can do it Arkansas is certainly capable of doing the same.

 

[chroix]

I want two quick fouls on Thiero. Get his ass off of the floor and I have zero concerns.

 

[wildcat2243]

WhatArkansas player has the game of his life tonight?

You're worried that they weren't motivated but now they are?

 

[ukcatz12]

I think you’re underestimating how much adrenaline and wanting to prove people wrong can motivate a player in the moment.

I’m not predicting Arkansas wins or these guys have career games, but I wouldn’t be surprised at all if it happened. I think this game will mean more to Thiero, Z, and Wagner than it will to any of our guys.

Go look at Cal's last 5 years. Even when UK was underperforming, Cal would randomly win a top 15 road game they had no business winning, which could easily happen tonight.

 

[Dreklie]

WhatArkansas player has the game of his life tonight?

no idea but it'll be a career night for at least 1 arkansas player

 

[katwest]

We should be able to get at least 2 charging calls on Adou tonight. As for those 3 that got booed, they are getting paid now, it’s a business.

 

[The_Catfather]

DJ or Nelly are my nominees for the banked-in 3. Wish there was a prop so I could bet it.

 

[ManitouDan]

IF .. If we took charges we could pick up 3 in a half

Wagner, we have been waiting for him to play up to his ranking. I really hope none of them do anything special

 

[SemperFiCat]

They chose it. Let's get it on!

 

[sosoblue]

Those boos were fairly weak surely we can do better than that.

 

[Chief Paducah]

I think the boo’ing will be a motivating factor for the first 5-10 minutes. Arkansas could come out hot. I don’t think it lasts the whole game.

 

[docholiday51]

WhatArkansas player has the game of his life tonight?

My guess is Wagner

 

[JonathanW]

That’s just wrong

 

[InAcorner]

Yes, because we do this thing now called "adjusting".

 

[michaeluk26]

I really don't like giving players extra motivation. It can bring a team together for one night. Oh well, it's happened. That means Cal will be super boo'ed.

 

[Bluesnky]

Do they let anyone who is there fill those seats at the start of warm ups? Just wondering why that section is so packed.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Please don’t be a jinx, please don’t be a jinx

Not necessarily. I believe the players deserve booing more than CCC. They came, not to play for UK, but to take advantage of our resources and name brand. As soon as their coach fled, they hit the road too. Sometimes you get what you deserve. They should be embarrassed, not motivated.

Those are the student sections

Agree to disagree.

 

[gbl97]

If Cal didn't study Pope's offense and "just worried about my team", he's gonna have a long night.

 

[shaudyshaud]

I think motivation and bulletin board material is overrated at times .

And coming back to UK aside most players want to play great against UK .

 

[TX-Wildcat]

They are not selling ANYTHING in bottles in fear of projectiles being thrown. Even poured my daughters Dasani into a cup. Weak ass shit!

 

[TOMCATS1990]

Arkansas with all the athletic ability in the world much more than our CATS. They don’t have good basketball players or an in game COACH.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

There's going to be morons on this board that will blame our fans for motivating Arkansas if Arkansas somehow wins the game.

Not happening.

I’m thinking Z

 

[Warf2012]

That’s just wrong

Right. Boos should have been much louder.
