We have no chance to out rebound a team like this without Poy but if we can get even 4-5 more rebounds in the 2nd half we win by 10 . Also 2 of their offensive rebounds were clear over the backs on UK players .

Being crushed on the offensive glass ... and still lead by one. We'll take it on the road.

UK is playing well on offense and they are shooting well. If they can fix the rebounding situation and continue shooting well then I like our chances.

We shot 53.8 percent in that first half and were 7 of 11 from 3-point range. Five players have hit 3-pointers.

Well,at least our bigs don't have 3 fouls each already,knocking on wood as I type this,

Don't let the shooting cool off at halftime,grab some rebounds,and keep up the good defense Cats and you'll sneak out of there with a W

With the way our boys are hurting we are doing pretty well, I guess we all saw Tyler shaking his arm when he was shooting those free throws. Willis hasn't got any room to give on speed and I am sure he is struggling to get up and down the floor, with the way A&M shot to start the game I am surprised we are in it, we have a pretty tough bunch of guys.

They're bigger at just about every position and they are good athletes. They are just plain reaching over us on a lot of those rebounds.
Exactly right. There is no "over the back" foul, never has been. They're simply jumping higher then reaching over our guys.

not horribly surprised that they're outrebounding us - of course, by that MUCH is a little startling
but the fact the disparity is so huge, yet we're still up one says a lot of good things.
We're shooting very well -

Wow. We put up 1.34 points per possession that half. Only ONE turnover. Shot an effective FG% of 67.3%

53% of their misses ended up in offensive boards. This would be a 15-20 point game if that didn't happen

Had no idea we were that efficient on offense that half tho

So, they've missed 26 shots, but they have 15 offensive fouls and we have 13 defensive rebounds. That's 28. How does that work?

Yeah we should be getting out rebounded without Poy but we should get out rebounded by 5 not 11 .
