*** Kentucky vs. Notre Dame Game Thread ***

[BigRedMachineBigBlueNation]

Hey but we improved from last year... so....

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Kansas may beat us 20+

KU will prob win. But I think it'll be closer than that.

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

Oscar is getting mauled

 

[kywildcats8]

Mizzo sucks!

And Kansas will beat us by 20 if we don't improve

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

That's impressive no doubt. Any time you beat a power conference team by 40+ that's impressive. But Missouri is pretty bad this season. They are 151st in Kenpom and is going to challenge Georgia for being the worst SEC team this season.

I wish we could only play tomato cans. We can win those. Kansas def taking the lead of all time wins this year for sure

 

[pauled#1]

Oscar getting mugged!

 

[kennyskywalker34]

That's where it feels like this is headed. Our ceiling is higher with TyTy running point. Get extra shooters out there.

Yes. He needs to be eased into the role. To where maybe it is split in minutes with Wheeler. Wheeler will have several huge games IMO. But at this point I don't trust him in a close NCAAT game. Teams will explore his lack of size. I like Wheeler and I think he brings something to this team. I would rather see TY TY starting at PG by mid season. It is not going to happen though.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Can't even get a 3 on a foul lol

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

That was so dumb to foul Wheeler on a 3 lmao

 

[TheExhaustedOne]

Wheeler shouldn’t be allowed to shoot outside of a layup the rest of the game.

 

[CB3UK]

This is just an ugly game on both sides honestly. We've got a lot to work on.

@bbncal02 I take back what I said about us beating Ohio State

 

[fisherscatfan_rivals101526]

Curious but do you think Cal has to spend 2-3 days on the offensive under the basket in bounds play? Looks pretty complicated.

 

[pauled#1]

Brooks has rebounded today!

 

[jameslee32]

Better with Wheeler driving and going to the line.

 

[TheExhaustedOne]

Only our 90% shooter can miss a ft lol.

 

[pauled#1]

Better with Wheeler driving and going to the line.

He needs to hit free throws!

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

another layup

 

[TortElvisII]

Never plan to win a game at Allen Field House unless you're 20 to 25 points better.

 

[kywildcats8]

Better with Wheeler driving and going to the line.

He can't even make FTs

 

[CB3UK]

Yes. He needs to be eased into the role. To where maybe it is split in minutes with Wheeler. Wheeler will have several huge games IMO. But at this point I don't trust him in a close NCAAT game. Teams will explore his lack of size. I like Wheeler and I think he brings something to this team. I would rather see TY TY starting at PG by mid season. It is not going to happen though.

I like Wheeler because he's all effort. But we're already seeing his ceiling.

 

[bigblueinsanity_rivals250340]

Iron sharpens iron. We tried using nickel to sharpen iron. It obviously didn't work. We hopefully win this game but out level of competition is obviously not helping us reach out ultimate form

 

[kyjeff1]

Oh I agree. I would love to look good all season long.

I'm just saying maybe we should pump the brakes on calling this season a failure when we all have seen this before.

This is every year the past 6 years though. We look like hot garbage while Kansas, Duke and everyone else that is a real threat, is kicking the dnot out of thrir opponents and they actually play legit offense. Cal has no idea what good offense is, I'm convinced of that. Too many players struggle here, then go on to the next level, or transfer and become elite. Matthews, Boston, Juzang, Baker etc… all stunk here, but kilked it at their next stop.

Devin Booker looked average here, gets to the pros and immediately starts dominating.

I'm not making this stuff up.

 

[bookerfan66]

This game is just painful to watch.

 

[LmdCat]

Layup drill

 

[jameslee32]

Much better offense now.

 

[ala_kat2]

Allen just cannot play a lick of defense!

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

Grady can’t guard a lamp post.

 

[kyjeff1]

Small ball!!!!

PlayStation. Dude , the are following your game play.

Just shut up man. You’re such a douche.

 

[Captain_Kentucky]

Horrible defense

 

[gwjenning]

We need to platoon, press the entire game, push the pace, and try to wear teams down. Our half court offense is absolutely terrible.

 

[bbnkat02]

Sorry I’m late. Been tied up in meetings.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

good defense.

 

[jameslee32]

He can't even make FFs

FT's? 3/4 today.

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

We have led by 4 about 22 times and cannot extend it.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Sounds dead in that gym, Rupp 2.0

 

[Eccain01]

Pretty confident we’re going to win because Notre Dame is terrible But I’m not really sure we’re that good.

 

[TheExhaustedOne]

Hey but we improved from last year... so....

we’ve almost matched our win total from last year and it’s not even Christmas.

 

[LmdCat]

Grady can’t guard a lamp post.

I haven't seen anyone guarding anyone.

 

[CB3UK]

22 for O

 

[JwUKFan11]

Bet they try to draw up some BS leaning in play to draw a foul here
