Young teams and learning

[RUPPsRevenge1]

While losing the big lead is bad, we just showed we can compete with the best in the country. Hopefully, these two games are a learning lesson for the guys. How to finish games and how to play with the lead.

We will be ok. SEC road games are tough. We still have the talent to make a deep run. Yall on board with me?

Just shows how dumbazz alot of UK fans are as we played well enough to win by 10 ( just like at KU and at Ark in 2013 ) but the refs jobbed us 2 games in a row . Briscoe committed 2 fouls tonight . Poythress 2 as well. If the refs call it right we win easy. But nope. So screw the refs I love this team . But mark my words it ain't the last time Karl Hess beats Uk.

I still predict a final four for this team

Sweet 16 at best. Hope I'm wrong, but we have way too many fatal flaws. There's only 9 games left. When does the learning turn into results on the court?

So long as the whistle doesn't get too heavy for the other team UK will be fine in the tournament. It's only when the calls start going one way UK has lost in the last two games. First half we had 14 attempts they had 15. We had a 6 point lead. Second half we have 9 they have 15 before the end of game fouling. There also were some TO's by us that should have been called fouls on UT. It's hard to outplay a whistle.

Why do you have to LEARN playing with pride, heart and common basketball sense. Poy is a senior and still walks 30% of the time, commits dumb fouls. Stupid basketball plays are killing us. The leagues BEST foul shooting team and we foul on 3 point shots, play defense with our hands, etc. We foul way too damn much and I don't see how you learn not to do that with 9 games left.

This team can make a final four run.

Cals young teams perform poor on the road in SEC play. This is nothing new.

The NCAA tournament is on a neutral floor and refs are on their best behavior most of the time with all the eyes on them.
