***** Kentucky vs Iowa State Game Thread *****

[Zuma75]

Gotta be almost perfect to win this - cant have self-inflicted injuries

 

[kyhankypanky]

We are so bad.

So poorly coached.

Results condemn Pope but not as much as how poorly we execute.

 

[JHannibalSmith]

This team could be really good if they were just a little less, monumentally, stupid & careless. We’d be a top 3 seed if that wasn’t the case, IMO.

 

[TheDude73]

Why do we always pick up the dribble after crossing the half court line. Dribble through the pressure and make them pay.

 

[coalBucket]

I’m serious. Referring is just about ready to kill my love for watching sports. These dudes have an agenda.

 

[cornbreadnmilk]

TO kings aren't we?

 

[MbergCat]

We are supremely frustrating to watch. Having said that, these refs have been AWFUL.

 

[KyCPA2000]

Why are our players so chicken to attack the basket while they are overpaying defense?

 

[Jp1542]

I think Jelly needs to spend some time observing next to the coaches.

We need more Cam if he can handle it.

 

[CUJO_1970]

We pick up the damn basketball why in the hell are we doing that - then nobody comes to help = another TO

 

[Kyfan27]

Has ANONE taught these guys to come to the ball when their teammate is swarmed?

Apparently not. They've been doing that crap all year

 

[Hitman206]

Iowa State's defense is too tenacious. Run more motion and get more backdoor cutting against an overpaying defense.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

a disaster from the moment Moreno failed to grab the rebound directly in his gd hands

 

[Drogon]

This team is so stupid.

 

[Seth_C]

**** that one little virgin ***** ref.

 

[ala_kat2]

MM is huge compared to their bigs, I’d throw it to him on the block a time or 2

Moreno is just too

 

[bbnkat02]

**** this scripted *** sport.

 

[truthteller]

Our offense is horrendous. We are trapping our own players with how out of position we are.

 

[Runt#1969]

This officiating crew looks like they definitely have an agenda...

they are sucking big ones right now

 

[Anon1628387640]

and just like that we're losing at HT because literally nobody on this team can handle the damn ball.

 

[Zuma75]

0-8 run to end the half

 

[Ukwazoo3]

Good thing they're missing their best player

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

These turnovers reveal how immensely soft UK is against good pressure.

 

[Pygmy Sasquatch]

yep, ******* called that

 

[StuBlue270_uk]

Our half court offense is so bad.

 

[JwUKFan11]

Yep just fire him. Pull the band-aid off now.

 

[LexingtonThoroughblade]

Too many turnovers for a game of this caliber.

 

[CELTICAT]

All that and now down at the half.

 

[jwhkchawk]

Welcome to playing ISU lol. They foul so much the refs stop calling it.

 

[AJG-15]

thank you pope , you managed to give away another game,.

 

[Tri-Countycat]

Pope should have called a timeout 3 minutes ago, he is a GD travesty

 

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Should have called TO like 3 minutes ago

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Pope is so garbage.

 

[Wildcat_in_DC]

from up 12 to down 1. pope has no clue how to handle this defense. zero. only a matter of time until isu hits threes. blow out in the 2nd half coming.

pope out classed.

 

[JakeKx]

Moreno is so ******* soft

 

[Razor]

Wtf are these clowns doing

 

[Jp1542]

This team is not good enough to win when they turn the ball over like this.

 

[Jamal Mercerr]

Build a lead, start turning the ball over.

UK basketball in a nutshell

Death, taxes, and this

 

[NociHTTP]

We have some of the dumbest guys at times. Pope needs to get up in their faces.

 

[four_every_hour]

2/3 of their points are from free throws
