Cats @ Vols Official Game Thread

[WildmanWilson_rivals]

I see a glimmer of heart.

I didn’t think we would have a 4 point lead at any point of this game. I also didn’t think Collins and Wheeler would be out with fake injuries either.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

Looking like a real team , playing good ball. I like its , win or lose , at least we look alive !!!!!

 

[kyjeff1]

4 point lead, but Reeves missing that layup… ugh

Very nice showing by the cats so far. This is impressive

 

[Jamal Mercer]

We survived the officials balancing out the foul count. That has to be a good sign.

 

[kennyskywalker34]

I think CJ is playing his best defense of the year.

Reeves is as well.

 

[LmdCat]

At this point, I didn't think I would be posting that I am impressed. Maybe the guys haven't quit on Cal at least not all of them. Also, it seems like Oscar calling out his teammates has had an effect.

Tenn is rebounding 4 and letting us run out. We are taking advantage of that. Nobody has sent 4 to the boards on us this season.

 

[dickieVIII]

If we hit 2 more open 3's we are full control of this game

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

Atta boy Chris!

 

[CatPhight_rivals65113]

Free throws and layups...does it get anymore effing fundamental?

 

[bbnkat02]

Cats actually playing with some heart and energy today. This is what we have missed

Yep. Losing happens. Only delusional nut jobs thinking it shouldn’t. But losing like we did to Bama is not acceptable.

Just get out there and fight.

This is by far the closest thing we have played to modern basketball all year and look at the results.

 

[ukalum1988]

I have to admit that I was afraid we would get run out of the gym today….. so far the team has played quite well after the first four minutes. Have to keep fighting……. I’ve been down on this team but I always relish beating the Vols.

 

[gkss]

Where has this Kentucky Team been all year?

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Don’t know what’s gotten into this team but I don’t mind at all.

The big question - can they keep it up the entire game.

There are 2 players not playing does that make the difference?

 

[richbrookstomato]

That’s it Chris!!! Drive the ball instead of shooting jumpers!!!

 

[SophiesDad]

Barnes and Tennessee players spend more time bitching to the stripes than anyone we’ve played this year by far

 

[LmdCat]

You have to be kidding me

Please tell me what Wallace did. The team is playing better without Wallace on the court. If you can't see that it is because you don't want to see it.

How the hell did he miss that layup?! I came unglued!

The right players are playing… get this… at the same time.

What a concept eh?

 

[Big10Cat]

This is fun!

 

[MbergCat]

Funny, UK fans appreciate effort. Of course we want to see wins, but the fight the team is showing today gives our fanbase something to smile about.

 

[TortElvisII]

Where has this Kentucky Team been all year?

Sitting on the bench

 

[ukfan041]

Helluva effort so far! UT has some dirty players

 

[megablue]

Reeves is as well.

Yes. I agree !!

 

[bbanks81]

Have to like the rotation from Cal this half, and I don’t think it’s a coincidence we are doing this well so far without Wheeler playing the entire half like he usually does. I think the same way many of you do on here, as the kid can and should play, but in a backup spark plug role

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

If I see this damn hormel ad one more time I may break something

 

[Catlogic15]

Where has this Kentucky Team been all year?

On the bench mainly.

 

[bbnkat02]

This is by far the closest thing we have played to modern basketball all year and look at the results.

If Cal can be do this and turn himself around he can stay.

 

[YankeeCpt_rivals378522]

our team is learning its identity as being a physical team...
out classing a physical team at their own game

 

[wkucat88]

They have quit on Cal, and started playing for themselves. I'm sure Tyler Ulis has more than a little to thank for this.

 

[kennyskywalker34]

At this point, I didn't think I would be posting that I am impressed. Maybe the guys haven't quit on Cal at least not all of them. Also, it seems like Oscar calling out his teammates has had an effect.

Maybe held a players only meeting.

 

[HenryMuto]

Obviously everyone here is shocked and surprised to have a 27-23 lead right now.

 

[kyjeff1]

Please tell me what Wallace did. The team is playing better without Wallace on the court. If you can't see that it is because you don't want to see it.

He's keeping UT from scoring and he has run an effective offense against the #1 defensive team on the road.

How the hell can you posdibly be trying to act like Wallace is playing.like crap?

This UT team has been killing better teams than us.

 

[SophiesDad]

With this effort, we would’ve beat garbage South Carolina by 20+. Frustrating

 

[katwest]

How the hell did he miss that layup?! I came unglued!

You got to dunk that sh**, you got to dunk that sh**!!!!

Cal letting Chin coach in huddle. Nice to see !!

**** man, that sounds like you are talking about us fans....
