Okeke.. but you're fairly close.
Is the PG the only one capable of passing or dribbling like the QB is basically the only one passing in FB?
Lol no. But he’s your best. Period. Especially when it’s against the top defensive team in the country.
It’s called agenda man.
Yes, but scoring 2 points in 10 minutes shouldnt happen even if we have our walk ons out there, never less guys like Oscar, Grady, and Toppin.
Football allows for significantly more depth and other than quarterback the responsibility is spread much more broadly.
With numerous threads already posted downing Cal and the Team, you still felt the need to start another one. Hey everyone look at me I’m stupid. That would be you. Well, now you have your 15 minutes of fame.
Bad take. First, Wheeler going down would be like Levis being out. Then his backup PG got hurt similar to if our second string quarterback went down during the game. Not to mention, Iowa's best running back opted out and they had several kids who had covid at the last second.
The difference is Cal is not considered successful unless he makes the final four. Stoops is considered successful if he makes the Freakin' Citrus Bowl which is equivalent to just making the round of 64 and Kentucky football is like being the equivalent to Loyola-Maryland or Belmont or Utah State or San Diego St. in basketball. Apples and Oranges.
Now that’s the bull crap
Really? One team shot 20 FT, the other shot 15. I'll let you try and figure out who is who.
There were several missed out of bounds calls. Several. How many times did Oscar get shoved with no call. Hell Grady got shoved out of bounds on a three attempt right in front of an official and got nothing. It’s not about what does get called. It’s about consistency. Remember the fouls by committee last night? Where they called a fouls against LSU and then there was a discussion? Yeah. That’s never a good look.
This is ridiculous. No...it's ********. For a road game, UK got a decent whistle. And nobody said the officiating was "good". It rarely is. But to point to it as the reason UK lost is soft.
I didn’t say it was the reason we lost. We lost due to not having three of our best players for extended periods and also having an off night at the line, which is unusual for us (we averaged 73% coming in).
Why bring it up then? Because when you bring it up, you make the insinuation the officials determined the outcome of the game. Nothing could be further from the truth.
As I’ve said a thousand time before. Bad calls are bad calls and I will always comment on them. Win or lose. Because the quality of officiating in this conference is a joke.
Anyone that claims officiating did not affect the game, is just wrong. Should we have overcome the bad calls? Yes. Do you think they wouldn’t have called a T on UK for hanging and swinging on the rim?
Let me preface by saying I don’t like the comparison, either. But, 2019 was the example we should use to compare. Stoops lost Terry Wilson, his backup Sawyer Smith & the 3rd string QB, Nik Scalzo, was out for the year. That is the equivalent of having no PG. Except, Cal still had Mintz to rely on. He can play PG. Up until last night most of this board has praised Mintz for whatever reason & over inflated his importance & ability. But, all the sudden when Wheeler & TyTy go out those same ppl conveniently forget Mintz & we have nobody else who can possibly play PG, lol.
Explain the advantage LSU gained from officiating. When you outshoot you’re opponent from the FT line ON THE ROAD you typically got a pretty good whistle. Officiating sucks. We all know it. But injuries, lack of execution are the primary reasons UK lost. Not officiating.
LSU did that last night and got owned by KSU. At least there was that solace. I hope Brian Kelly loses every game down there. Big phony. He and Wade are made for each other.
And out of those 80 players, like 79 of them are not 5 star players. Stoops has over achieved with what players this program can bring or football. UK has always been know as a basketball school. Cal has under achieved since 2015 with the amount of 5 star recruits he has had.
