Game thread vols vs cats

I meant in the second half of this game (UT for the entire game).

It wasn't the best looking bball in the world but I blame a lot of that on the refs and the massive amount of fouls in the first 5 mins of this half.

Basically turned the game into a free throw battle...........neither team did well at lol.

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

9-10 from the line.

I know, just think it’s funny he is our best option at this point

 

[Gromcat_rivals]

I will take this win and shove it in every rapists face here in Tennessee.

Not talkin much **** these days. They’ll pull their typical “only football matters anyway” ********.

I hate hate hate these pieces of ****.

Big win. Have to think Kentucky is safe for the tournament unless we have some very big letdown coming up.

Florida is very winnable now without Castleton, win that game and were fine. And we can then start thinking about seeding.

But honestly.. I think I'd rather see Kentucky be a 10 seed more than anything else. Or a 7 if we could pull that off. Just don't want to be an 8 or 9.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Have to win the next 3 to make this one really matter.

 

[TomTraubertsBlues]

How you can win a game scoring 10 pts in the final 12 mins is crazy. Sure would be nice to actually be a team that focuses on actually scoring down the stretch though.

 

[Catluv]

BIG WIN things to work on do not let other teams get layups on out of bounds plays!!

 

[J-Ryan]

What was all that “revenge in rupp” they were talkin bout?

 

[ala_kat2]

UK made 3 FGs in the last 12:00 of the game and still won. Incredible.

We did well just to make hand-off passes. Couldn’t get many open looks.

 

[bbnkat02]

Well either way good win from the cats today, played really well in the first half, work on FTs, and intensity late in games, but good win by the cats today

Solid solid win. We aint getting a title, but let's get in the tourney and see what happens.

Sweeping UT is a nice surprise this season.

 

[Titpwhami2014]

I’m not sold on UT but they just beat the #1 team in the country a few days ago. A very helpful win for the ole’ resume.

 

[Randy Bob]

Not a pretty win but a win I take it.

 

[kyjeff1]

Massively massive win!

But that second half was a battle of two hideously terrible teams.

The refs dictated the game with their whistle.
UT ratcheted up their defense and the calls helped them at first, but the longer the refs called cheap fouls, the more it hurt UT.

That was a hell of a physical game, that should be noted while you're crushing our play.

This matters big in the Big tourney!!

 

[CatEye2010]

Double digit win, Q1 win

 

[Cowtown Cat]

Suck It Vols!!!

Called it preseason! One of their fans came on here and thought it was hilarious!

 

[LmdCat]

Minus some dumb stuff by Oscar, the team showed more mental toughness than they have shown all season. Also, I am not opposed to giving credit where credit is due. Livingston played tough today. He showed more toughness than Oscar. Oscar has to learn to stop dribbling down low trying to get off shots against trees. If it isn't something that he can do quickly, his 3-inch vertical will get him killed under the basket.

 

[tls]

Reeves and CL tired or feeling pressure down the stretch.

Hated to see that. A win is a win tho.

They projected UK as 10 seed before game

Drama

Maybe but with group you never know

Hell yeah, beating those orange ******** is great every time

 

[Crawfords Corner]

I believe that before the game the announcer said neither team swept the other since like 2012 or 2013. I don’t remember which one though.

 

[HenryMuto]

didn't we sweep UT last year too?

Nope lost at Tennessee (got smoked) and lost in the SEC tournament as well to them

 

[LmdCat]

UT offense sucks thats why we’ve been successful with them. Msu was the same way.

If we were still playing the MSU game, your comments would be relative. Lol

Missed a lot of FTs. Should have been 18/20

That's Q1 number 4. While not great that should be enough to get us in.

 

[BradleyCrawford08_rivals]

BIG WIN! This is a huge step in making the tournament. Double digit win over a top 10 team will look great for the resume.

 

[kyjeff1]

I know, just think it’s funny he is our best option at this point

Livingston was our best option last game. Wallace might be our best option next
Oscar has the best hands on the team, so he gets the ball from the inbounder when the heat is on.

UT has one of, if not the BEST, defense in the country.

I'm just glad we finally swept those orange punks.

 

[59coop]

I know, just think it’s funny he is our best option at this point

He was the most rested player on the floor at that point.

 

[HenryMuto]

Game was never really in doubt as the closest they got was 8 but man that 2nd half sure took years off my life.

SURVIVE AND ADVANCE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Put us in that bracket Biatches !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kyjeff1]

We didn't even lose an SEC game in 2015.

 

[kyjeff1]

We have 4?

 

[mcwildcats04]

Good win guys! It was hard to watch that FT shooting down the stretch but we did enough to keep the game a good margin. Huge win for us!

 

[LmdCat]

Cal looked like he wanted to kill someone

He always looks that way and then wonder why he gets no calls from the refs. Lol

 

[J-Ryan]

It means we can play with anyone as long as the coach and the players are doing the right things…

 

[bbnkat02]

We have 4?

I think so. 2 for UT. The Texas A&M one from them beating Arky. And o thought we had one more as well.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

They projected UK as 10 seed before game

And I think we will be that or higher. But, I'm still not ready to think this team finishes the season on a tear. I expect a loss against Arkansas, and I still think there could be another loss in there as well.

 

[LmdCat]

We make our handoff passes in such a lackadaisical fashion which is why they are so difficult for us.

Are you counting aTm?
