Survive and advance, I guess. I’ll take any win with this group. Hard to beat anyone when you shoot 1-327 from 3.

Amazing win! I'm really encouraged to see this team band together on a bad shooting night. I think this bodes well for March. Also, KSBar has half-priced wings and beers during every UK basketball (and Hoops!) game. Tune in to KSR on Monday at 10 am while Ryan Lemond makes goober jokes and we try to paint lipstick on this pig.

P.S. This team is awesome!

- Matt Jones in about 45 minutes

Well we won because their 80% free throw shooter choked his *** off. I'll take it but not happy about.

Nick clutch tho.

Shew. Heart rate was literally a zillion beats a minute in the closing seconds.

A loss would've ruined the rest of my day.

With this bipolar squad, I'm fully expecting a win at LSU Tuesday.

In other news, Clemson leads Louisville 18-5.

So, did the OM player intentionally miss the 1st ft? Sure looked like it. Interesting strategy if that was the idea.

I am a huge Matt Jones fan. I just get highly irritated when he ignores reality and pumps sunshine rather than just stating what is obvious.

I refuse to believe EJ was playing “better.” I didn’t get a chance to see those games. What I’m seeing from him today is exactly what I’ve seen from him in his entire career at UK. A blank. EJ Montgomery is a blank.
Disagree. He's making hustle plays and getting every 50/50 ball near him. That rebound and pass to Maxey was probably the play of the game.

I’ll counter with: HE’S SUPPOSED TO HUSTLE!!!!!

He made one play falling to floor. Glad he made it. Was a huge play.

But he did zero on the defensive end and let many rebounds in traffic just go the other way, nonchalant. He’s the X-factor. I get it. If we get anything from him -say, 8 points and 6 rebounds- we become a top tier team. But he’s just so damn passive. Seems to be his natural state.

2 points, 5 fouls. Looked “lazy” all game. Again, a blank.

They zoned us, which takes everything EJ can contribute offensively off the table. Especially when Cal sits him at the top of a zone allowing it to sag and take away any chance of attacking it from the FT line.

Tough gritty win. Doesn’t have to be pretty and dominate, but our guys we can count on made the plays to win like we needed, and our defense was once again pretty damn good.

The next 4 weeks we get LSU, Auburn and UF twice. Win 3 out of 4 there and make the SEC Chanpionship and we could end a 3 seed.

Remember when Stoops said something like that and you flipped your lid?

@Georgia Tech and @Clemson are games a top 10 team has to win. Suck it.

Fair. Although I do think we're getting more out of him lately. Today wasn't great.

I mean, I’m getting to the point where I’m done with Hagans but wtf can you do with 2-22 from three?

And no- I don’t buy any BS about Cal’s offense. Saw plenty of wideopen bricks from “capable” shooters.

I LOVE Quick- second favorite player on the team- but he’s shooting sub-36% FG the last 5 games.

Make some damn shots.
