***** Kentucky @ Arkansas Game Thread *****

[ZaytovenCat]

I’m more than happy to be wrong. Thought for sure they’d lose this game. Especially after the bs earlier. Time to troll the hell out of the bacon fans on Twitter.

 

[LexingtonThoroughblade]

I admit that I bet against us but this was a pleasantly surprising first half effort and we stayed strong after all those technical fouls. This was a good road win and a good win for the NCAA Tournament resume.

 

[MaysviileKY]

Good win. This team can play if they are motivated.

 

[RichardCory]

That win sure felt good!

 

[Artlaibesghost]

What a ball buster. I need a drink!!!!!

[mash_24]

Wish we had Brazille. And it’s not like Oweh wasn’t taunting Ark the entire game too.

Would not have that *** within 100 miles of my team.

 

[ZaytovenCat]

Of Pope’s tenure

Umm no. Top 5 for sure just because it’s Cal but there’s a few definitely better than this one.

 

[mcwildcats04]

So perplexed by this team. What a win though.

No clue what to expect game to game or even half to half. But, this win sure does feel sweet!!!!

 

[Turbo_Blue78]

They haven’t lost at home since February of last year suck it Cal

 

[TheBlueMist]

Of Pope’s tenure

That would be against Duke and two first round picks currently leading the ROY race in the NBA.

 

[mash_24]

Pope should still make a point in the press conference of calling out Shows and crew. Something has to be done.

 

[Larry00]

It won’t be said a bunch, but….

Ladies and Gentlemen…Trent Noah!!!

 

[cat tat2]

That was a HUGE win for multiple reasons.

 

[fisherscatfan]

That’s why even with all of Popes struggles I don’t want Cal!

 

[Colts240]

Oweh was awesome but I think Trent Noah is the reason we came out with the win he needs more run

 

[cat tat2]

It won’t be said a bunch, but….

Ladies and Gentlemen…Trent Noah!!!

He played really well.

 

[FridayAfternoonCat]

You negative Nancy's that were predicting a blowout loss, and STILL dissing the team when we had the lead late in the game.......try and have faith. Stop trying to justify your dislike of Pope.

Pope and the team showed everything they have been scorched for: heart, fight, effort, emotion, passion. Won’t hear me complaining at all.

 

[TheBlueMist]

Somewhere, this guy is stoked.

 

[jameslee32]

The first 5 minutes of this game told me the Cats were looking ahead to Little Piggy last Tuesday in Nashville.

 

[katwest]

First thing I see Kentucky needs to do is everybody shoot 300 free throws everyday in practice. I can’t believe even our better free throw shooters can’t hit them when they need to. Now I’m extremely proud of these guys for beating their a— on their floor. Arkansas and their fans can go pound sand, the cats overcame some suspect officiating and won this game with toughness despite officials.

 

[true-blue1]

I’M PROUD OF OUR EFFORT TONIGHT!!!!!

 

[FLBBNFAN]

That was a great win and Pope and the guys deserve all the credit for pulling it off. Lots of criticism after Vanderbilt myself included and they punked the pigs on their home court.

 

[mcwildcats04]

I missed any pre-game news and the whole first half and good chunk of the second half of the game. Where was Jasper? Didn't see him on the bench at the end of the game.

 

[UKBB4Ever]

Umm no. Top 5 for sure just because it’s Cal but there’s a few definitely better than this one.

Not for what this meant.

 

[ZaytovenCat]

Wish we had Brazille. And it’s not like Oweh wasn’t taunting Ark the entire game too.

Why in the hell would you want a guy like Brazille on a UK team? He was the big reason the team blew up during Muss’s last season. He was in a gay 3 way love triangle with two teammates and it got messy.

 

[sefus12]

Would not have that *** within 100 miles of my team.

We have MoD, Garrison and Oweh. I don’t think we can judge too much. Brazille is the type of guy EVERY team can use. He’s basically what we all wanted MoD to be.

 

[KyKevin]

This team is like trying to figure out fishing, you never figure it out

 

[OldRed]

Won 8 on 5 tonight

You mistyped. I'm sure you meant 5 on 8.

 

[sefus12]

Why in the hell would you want a guy like Brazille on a UK team? He was the big reason the team blew up during Muss’s last season. He was in a gay 3 way love triangle with two teammates and it got messy.

1) He’s a hell of a glue guy and every team needs one of those.
2) I have no idea (nor do I want to know) about any players sex life. And let’s not act like we don’t have our own rumors of issues of that nature this year.

 

[TarHeelInCharlotte]

1.5 games out of first place in the sec

 

[blackcat714]

Great game makes me feel bad saying they would lose by 30.I was pleasantly surprised

 

[BetterThanYou]

I like how the team jelled in this game.

They fought, so respect.

At least they’re fighting (not literally).

it’s a low expectation I know.

but a step in right direction.

for stupid Mirch, it probably saved Dopes job.

oh and Cow can suck it

I had to make an account just so I can put your terrible crap on ignore.

I’ve been on UK message boards going back to wildcat faithful.

You are absolutely one of the worst posters I’ve encountered in 25 years .

 

[KyKevin]

We have MoD, Garrison and Oweh. I don’t think we can judge too much. Brazille is the type of guy EVERY team can use. He’s basically what we all wanted MoD to be.

Mo D was a reason we won tonight, with his rebounding and hustle, and I have been down on his attitude. But great game MoD

 

[fisherscatfan]

i may get a Twitter ban tonight. After I get off the phone with my son Im going straight a-hole to Arkansas fans and Greenberg

 

[HenryMuto]

4 quad 1 wins now

 

[mash_24]

Start Noah and play the sagging defense we played tonight. Noah is tough and he cares.

 

[bbnkat02]

Between a sagging ceiling and on call I got to see some of that.

Great win!

 

[KyKevin]

Great game makes me feel bad saying they would lose by 30.I was pleasantly surprised

We all thought they would get there a.ss kicked, maybe not by 30, there were a few on here that picked Kentucky for the win, but not sure they really believed it either.

 

[jameslee32]

Hogs had 2 fastbreak points. Two.
