Kentucky @ Louisville Game Thread

[Kingslayer07]

Louisville is the better team. It is what it is.

They are at home. We would beat them in Rupp. Means nothing.

 

[JimboBBN]

They can’t miss and we are missing everything

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Well crap. Gonna need some defense.

 

[anon1777473514]

Ok let’s keep playing a breakneck pace so that we get blown out. Goodness. If we slow this down, we have the physicality advantage

 

[nssdigitalchumps]

We cant make the stop. Players cant stick to their man. Oweh has the defense of Reed tonight.

 

[Zuma75]

One team looks ready to play and the other one doesn’t. I don’t mean effort or want-to, I mean preparation.

 

[UKCowboys]

Louisville is just fired up and playing well. I think this is actually good for us. I think we get back in it

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Why didn’t Moreno try and block that?

Why do none of our seven footers not leave their feet on defense????? We are SOFT!!!!!

 

[sefus12]

Their offense is so much more fluid than ours. Our defensive intensity sucks.

Our bigs are BAD on defense and UL is exploiting that. JQ better be all he’s hyped up to be if we want to do anything in the spring.

Also, Garrison is horrible and Oweh looks lost tonight. This feels like a complete blowout is coming.

 

[wccat]

Oweh has to show up.

 

[Pensacola_Cat]

Exactly why pope was never gonna be the man needed

Exactly why pope was never gonna be the man needed

 

[UKJenning]

We don’t have enough shooters.

 

[gbl97]

They'll start missing eventually.

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

Does Pope have any inkling of how to coach a defense?

 

[IowaCityLit]

Do the Cats have a Pope
Problem?

I think last years team is more talented.

A lot of raw, mediocre pieces.

Might have to try something different and innovative.

 

[3 Putts]

Can’t hit a three and they’re on fire, recipe for disaster. Better make a run before the half or we’re cooked.

 

[mdluk1]

They’re making shots and we ain’t.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

This is why even the great Mark Pope needs lottery picks.

Get Stokes.

 

[mash_24]

Without Noah and Kam Williams apparently not ready for prime time we have no 3 pt shooting. And that’s the difference in this game.

 

[ZaytovenCat]

Welp I’m out. Not wasting my night watching this crap. Pope need better get smarter with how he spends his money because $22M on this roster is pathetic. Overspent by about $8M.

 

[Jtf2217]

First time out called. Smh what took so long.

 

[JakeKx]

Why the **** do we continue jacking up threes

 

[Artlaibesghost]

If we can’t beat these scrubs we might as well pack it in

You must be blind , they ain't scrubs.

 

[CUJO_1970]

OO with another freaking brick

 

[Zuma75]

Wow this looks really bad

 

[ChicagoCat90]

It's not even half way through game #3 but I feel that pessimistic gloom creeping in. UL has some dogs and it looks like we do not.

 

[mrjuk lostinspace]

I’M SO SICK

 

[MonsterMash79]

He’s gotten to cool or something. Last year he was a dirty dawg. Now he plays soft. If your toe is bothering you then sit out.

He got a big head. He won’t do sh$t this year, watch …

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Ball game lmao. Missing layups. Henious effort

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

We are weak af

UL running plays and contesting every shot

UK can’t even get a decent look

 

[Artlaibesghost]

Danger time for us. THey could go up 8 here.

FIX IT POPE

No fixing it, they are better than us pure and simple

 

[blackcat714]

Oweh is killing us

 

[Kingslayer07]

This is why you have to get freshman studs Pope.

 

[Pensacola_Cat]

Let’s see if we have an any pride at all.

 

[ToniTonyToneDelkDelkDelk]

Mikel Brown is better than everybody we have. Plain and simple.

Recruiting high level freshmen matter.

 

[catsarecool1447]

OWEH IS WATCHING WHILE ON THE COURT

 

[Rainmaker]

Oweh must be on the take. Playing Zero D, and zero offense. Looks like he couldn't care less. Bench him Pope.

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Well that escalated quickly.

 

[philstat]

Damn, getting blown out, Louisville is playing with focus and intensity, we’re playing like a weekend at Ruckers.

 

[kyjeff1]

Okay Pope, I know you want to shoot thirty threes, but you didn't recruit for that, this team can't shoot, stop trying to be the Golden State Warriors with a bad bews bears roster.
