Gameday thread

[MidseasonTweak]

This team is so effin soft. It’s hard to watch. Mo can’t play big games. Dude shoots a 3 might as well be a turnover.

Cannot believe he has the green light to shoot

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

I actually thought this team was supposed to be good in D. I know we are missingtwo
Major pieces but damn.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

Hey maybe we'll make it "competitive" at the end, it will be a moral victory!

 

[phyrekat01]

F$%#ing pathetic. No defensive effort, offense is sleepwalking. Do we even have a coach?

 

[Jamal Mercerr]

I’ll officially have my first negative thoughts about Mark Pope if we lose this one.

Michigan state isn’t very good

 

[bigblueinsanity (the real)]

It’s hard to watch. BG and Noah at this time, can’t be playing. If we want to win the game

That was a terrible lineup with them both in, with skme other weird subs.

 

[Bluesbrother]

Pope looks unconcerned ... totally laid back.

 

[Kywildcat_nation28]

Pope can't recruit

 

[Cats3x]

Can't score.

Can't defend.

Bad combination.

 

[FireWentOut]

Look, Aberdeen shoots another air ball. This team is in serious trouble.

 

[Kingslayer07]

0 ball movement. Everyone playing for themselves.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

We just keep jacking threes.

Can no one drive the ball

 

[BigKari]

Pope looked like he was in pain walking through the tunnel on the broadcast, looked like he wanted to be anywhere else. Some really weird comments we’ve heard already. Something is wrong with this team.

 

[OleTiredBum]

slow, lethargic uninspiring defense and we can't throw a rock in the ocean. we have serious issues.

 

[One2Three]

IF IU beats us his seat will be on fire.

If IU beats us, both he and Mitch should be shot out of a cannon.

 

[Wunky]

Aberdeen can’t penetrate. We have nobody that can without Lowe. If the ball doesn’t get into the paint via a pass it doesn’t get there at all.

 

[Farsight Clone]

If we somehow have a worse year than last year this year, he has one more year then he's done. Final four or bust.

I hate this for Pope. But man.

 

[RunninRichie]

20 point blowout incoming

 

[kyjeff1]

I'm trying really hard to understand what Pope is doing. I can't figure it out and we might be the worst defensive team in the SEC again.

This is so disappointing. We're getting run. Wow.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Going to be a long season, fellas. We still have UNC, Indiana, St John's, two against Florida, two against Tennessee, Alabama, and a road game against Arkansas.

At least Mark Pope can hang a "top transfer portal" banner.

 

[CUJO_1970]

We are lost and sloppy and pathetic.

I honestly can believe what I’m seeing. Just a complete failure

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Lmao. 7-11 3pt.

17-2 run. We are cooked.

This team can’t even shoot. Alarming.

 

[phyrekat01]

Too bad we can't play Eastern Illinois every game

 

[UKBB4Ever]

Quaintance would make a huge difference in a game like this.

Moreno and Garrison are not UK caliber guys.

What makes you think he would?

Pope would have him playing 20 ft from the basket.

And waving at drivers as they fly by.

 

[darkshadesofblue]

I know it’s early, but these players don’t seem to be meshing well together. The cohesion is simply not there

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

Pope gets down 15 in the first half of the first two real games of the year.

 

[Anon1759768907]

And this is why I still have concerns about Coach Pope defensively. Still hasn’t proven it in this area

the talent is there tho right

 

[One2Three]

Pope looked like he was in pain walking through the tunnel on the broadcast, looked like he wanted to be anywhere else. Some really weird comments we’ve heard already. Something is wrong with this team.

In over his head, probably.

 

[blackcat714]

Blow out

 

[The_Catfather]

Michigan State might break their all-time 3-point record tonight. Izzo must be wondering what bizarro world he's living in now. He's never seen this sh*t in his life.

Mo needs to quit making TikToks and practicing 3s and concentrate on rebounding. Getting killed inside.

 

[Anon1751335390]

-MSU

7-11 from 3
5-11 from 2

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

Absolutely WHIFF

Keeps playing 2 bigs.
Plus We don’t have one of those guys who can go get you a basket.

This feels like a loss brewing. Can’t guard

 

[JayCom71]

Still a lot of season to go but at this rate we may not beat a team that has a pulse

 

[bbnkat02]

This is unacceptable. Whatever the eff happened before the UofL game broke this team.

 

[kyjeff1]

I'm trying really hard to understand what Pope us doing. I can't figure it out and we might be the worst defensive team in the SEC again.

This is so disappointing. We're getting run. Wow

 

[JHannibalSmith]

The perimeter defense is downright embarrassing. It’s a big reason why we’re always playing from behind against teams with a pulse. I like Pope & haven’t said much, but, there are some serious concerns, for sure.

 

[UKBB4Ever]

This looks like another 12 loss team.

If we’re lucky

 

[RoyKent]

“Biggest waste of $22 million I have ever seen.”

- Mark Stoops

 

[catsarecool1447]

Pope can't recruit

Recruiting has nothing to do with it. Offense and Defense both look pathetic.

 

[MarvinHagler89]

This team is trash. Worst team since Billy g
