Official Kentucky vs. Alabama Game Thread

[warrior-cat]

Yeah, I was told by a poster the other day that Alabama, Tenn, LSU were not as good as Kentucky even though their record reflected it. Apparently they have not played the schedule we have played therefore we were better. Where do these people come from?

 

[Yardeth]

Oh No We Suck Again!!!

 

[Atrain7732]

What has he done besides coach teams who launch threes?

Come on man He was barely over .500 last year he should be Uk coach in waiting

 

[track42]

This team won't even make the NIT.

 

[RunninRichie]

Let's take a knee guys this is unacceptable

 

[Kentuckiddy]

No defense, four bad shooters. Recipe for disaster.

 

[rick64]

Bama +21 points from 3pt range

 

[zannmann]

Did Cal even watch any ****ing tape? This is what they do. Holy hell.

Cal claims he doesn’t watch tape. He says he plays his game regardless the opponent.

 

[TankedCat]

we might want to try a 4-1 zone

 

[philstat]

Devin Askew was the only bright spot, Allen was good on offense, deplorable on turnovers.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

I'm just sitting here wondering my lord how bad is Florida this season lol

 

[fisherscat]

Bama with 0 FTs and -11 in rebounding and it’s still a blowout.

Pathetic

It’s 2021. Gotta shoot the 3 and be able to score. Playing harder and tougher than your opponent ain’t gonna cutbit

 

[podgejeff_]

I have an idea!

Recruit some shooters so you can keep up!!!!

Boston and Askew both came in as shooters.

Allen is known for nothing but shooting.

Brooks can hit 3s.

We have shooters. They aren't hitting.

 

[RoyKent]

I mean they're hitting 45.5% from 3.

There's not much you're going to do against that.

You could start by actually guarding them when they shoot threes. Just an idea

well you know they’re a good team. only good teams lose good players and respond positively. you see it all the time in sports. bad teams get deflated. good teams man up for the rest of the game. and they’ve been on fire since. of course me and my old man would torch our defense on the perimeter lol.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Uhhhh, if that's all you’re seeing, you don’t know what you're looking at.
The coaching part happens before the three pointers go up.

All they do is pass a few times, space the floor and jack up a 3. Not that difficult

 

[fs-ripcord65]

Did Cal even watch any ****ing tape? This is what they do. Holy hell.

Calipari told us, before the Wisconsin game in 2015, that he doesn't watch tape !

 

[Bigblueamyou]

Uhhhh, if that's all you’re seeing, you don’t know what you're looking at.
The coaching part happens before the three pointers go up.

Dude they are going down and just shooting 3’s,hell any team could do that,difference is they are making them.

 

[mhroe1984]

For as many 3s as they shoot 'bama isn't really a great shooting team at 32% on the season, so naturally they'd come in to Rupp tonight and torch us for 10 in the first half.

 

[philstat]

Cal claims he doesn’t watch tape. He says he plays his game regardless the opponent.

Cost us a national title more than once, unforgivable!

 

[megablue]

Honestly, just no chance against that shooting. I mean it's nothing but net. They'll have to replace those nets as worn out by half-time.

I hope The Law arrives soon. If not, we’re toast.

 

[track42]

So what excuse will Cal have now?

 

[jameslee32]

I'm just sitting here wondering my lord how bad is Florida this season lol

They won.

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

Herb Jones breaks his wrist and Bama starts blowing UK out. Because why not.

Sarr and Boston are both 0-2. Jackson 0 points. Brooks is a disaster. Really nice half, guys.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Kansas going down

 

[Bigblueamyou]

Bama +21 points from 3pt range

Yeah no way you can win like that.

 

[j4uk]

My God somebody turn this damn page......

 

[RunninRichie]

Kansas lost. At least we won't get a game gained on us in all time wins

 

[ukfan117]

When you turn it over 11 times and the other team hits 8 to 10 three pointer's in the first half. You're not winning this game period. If Kentucky gets back into this it will mean Alabama will have to get cold from 3 point land and I don't see that happening.

 

[Jamal Mercer]

I have an idea!

Recruit some shooters so you can keep up!!!!

At this point I’d rather we let them do a layup line to the basket rather than leave their shooters wide open.

 

[RoyKent]

Bama made 10 threes, UK made 10 shots total

 

[stoneycat_20]

No defense..Bama shooting practice jumpers

 

[CincyUKFan]

Allen’s TO’s towards the end were not good.

With that said, if you don’t have him in to start the second half, then WINNING IS NOT YOUR GOAL. We need to hit some threes and open up the floor.

It’s that simple.

 

[ZaytovenCat]

Really hard to watch. Brooks and Mintz are 3/14 from the floor. Askew and Allen 5/7.
We need the ***** distributed according to who’s most efficient. And yes, Allen, more so than any other player, should be in the court THE MOST and put up a minimum of ten shots per game.

Lol I’m dying. I don’t know if we need the ***** distributed. We should try and contain the diarrhea to the least players as possible.

 

[TankedCat]

what a way to end the half- with the announcer saying "saying Kentucky's return may have been premature"

 

[fisherscat]

Cats at Auburn Saturday. Think we’ve seen the last of swaggy Cal for awhile.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

32.2% on the season from 3.

Bama will come back down to Earth in the 2nd half.

 

[March 22]

Alabama - superior shooting, energy, skill, preparation, coaching, toughness, conditioning
UK - superior virtue signaling

 

[sam_o]

Bama 10-21 from 3 in the first half. 12 point deficit isn’t that bad considering
