As a former basketball player and all basketball players can agree that the first thing that leaves you when tired are your legs and jump shot. We definitely looked like a tired team today with all our shots coming up short. It’s up to players to knock down their shot and we just couldn’t do it today.
Regardless, I am still super proud of the guys for the heart they showed in that game. Their defense was phenomenal and they held Florida to only 71 points. Guarantee you that neither Vanderbilt or Arkansas/Alabama will be able to do that. If we can play defense like that in the NCAAT, I think we get to a second weekend. From there, anything can happen. GO BIG BLUE!!!

Gosh this board is so toxic, demeaning, and absolutely disgraceful. Some of you fans are an embarrassment to this fanbase. I’m done with this forum. For those that I have had some legitimate basketball conversations.. it was fun to talk to actual fellow fans.

Keyboard nerds that sleep with their laptops so they don't miss a bash or attempt to be funny. It's quite amusing, actually.

This team isn't a good shooting squad. Besides you can't blame tired legs. Team should've thought about that when they were losing to inferior conference opponents.

I'll admit I thought this team would have better talent comparatively. Watching other teams we don't have the horses and it isn't getting any better.

There's no excuse to have zero recruits and be the punchline of jokes. Joe Lunardi was making fun of UK for God's sake.

The defense was the same hope they miss defense we always play. And Fl just missed.

And if you played you know that defensive rebounding is defense. How special was that thru the Popette lens?
