I think it would help if we learned to box out and play defense instead of switching every position 1-5.
Good teams expose us with all our switching. Same thing every year.

I thought Bam was supposed to be this massive force down low. He looks lost half the time.

Our McDonald's AA Bigss are getting taken to school by Leaf. He is way more aggressive and playing smarter any of Bigs combined. Gabriel at least is making and effort, very disappointed in the play of Bam. Once again we have no inside scoring threat..

Our half court offense is terrible, we're not rebounding, and defense is bad. It's not too late to come back but not likely today. Lessons will be learned today.

That's just some looking for excuses to justify instead of the reality that UCLA is just the better team so far. They will mention the refs, home, being sick or some other excuse instead of accepting the current reality


Not sure I understand this. Playing in Rupp isn't what's killing us here it's the lack of effort. UCLA is playing a poor game but is by far out hustling us. You won't beat anyone of substance playing like we are.

What about UCLA scoring at will. Is that the refs fault as well?

Yep it's the refs fault
When you can walk, shove, play over the back, moving screen and offensive foul with no calls, you are going to look great. It's touch fouls the other way.

Defending >>>>>>> issue than the offensive end this game. We are getting shredded when not forcing turnovers.

That back door out of bounds was the refs fault? So UK is only losing due to the ref? You sound like the people on the UL scout board. Leaf just hit a three. Was that the refs too?

Passing is spreading out our defense. UCLA is spaced well and moves the ball quickly. Gets them open coupled with them shooting out their *** hurts.

On offense our half court offense really needs work and we're making some bad decisions.

We don't need the loss but we really needed this game. We will learn a lot.

Its the fact that when Kentucky is at someone elses home it's a superboel for them and an absolute hose job.

Yet, we're finally home and it's still a ******** hose job.

Kentucky is up by 5 if they had any other jersey on.
Yeah the refs are the reason we can't hit a jumper, get a rebound , or guard the 3
