Ok
Only down four with the way we played
Manageable
Just hope we play to our ability

 

[KyCatFan1]

Had a chance to tie or take the lead and another bad possession on offense and defense. At least only down by 4 with this horrible play. Hopefully we foul their team out in the second half

 

[sam_o]

Gonna be fine guys

 

[rick64]

-15 points from 3, 6-23 FGA and only down 4 at the half.

 

[RACdad]

I'll take it

 

[TheBigBlueSpectacle]

Terrible half but those guys are going to be on fumes and in big foul trouble.

 

[kyjeff1]

Both teams are affected by this officiating. This is not how an NCAAT game should be called.

 

[fisherscatfan_rivals101526]

If that was a jump ball, I’m freaking Santa.

 

[mdlUK.1]

Terrible officiating! Not favorable to either team, just terrible!

 

[mhroe1984]

So they go 1/12 from 3 against UMBC and they’ve already hit 6 in the first half against us. Never fails. Anyway, we’re only down 4 when nothing is falling for us and they’re hitting everything. We’re winnig this game!

 

[UKDC80]

Our inability to knock down wide Freaking open shots will beat us. And tonight may be that night

 

[Lukasz0brzut]

That was ugly. Brutal game to watch too

 

[triadaz]

Can't play much worse in the first 17 min. Drive and post up in the 2nd half. Have to hit those fts...

 

[uk78_rivals88018]

KNOX, please show up for the second half.

 

[BassProCat]

Pretty ****** sad, isn't itt?

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Barkley called it.

what did he say?

 

[CatsIndy2010]

Kansas state can not be serious, hold us to 60 points or less? Your defense is good, but its not gonna happen tonight.

 

[KYExtemper]

With the way this is going, we might need some fans from the stands to finish the game (assuming they have some eligibility)

 

[Crawfords Corner]

That was a dog crap of a first half and UK is only down 4. K-State is a bunch of hackers. +15 from 3 is the only thing keeping them in the game. They won't shoot it from 3 that good in the 2nd half.

 

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

Go to Washington every single freaking play. Don't understand this...

I don't understand either... PJ makes a couple of great post moves and scores, so don't try that anymore???

 

[kybassfan]

Pretty simple. We have to make shots. We’re getting them, just gotta make’em. Wouldn’t hurt if we shut down their 3pt bonanza too.

 

[bbnkat02]

Ugh. Don't like losing at the half, but considering where we were? And if it wasn't for their RIDICULOUS performance beyond the arc, we'd be ahead or at worse tied.

Have to come out PISSED OFF the second half.

 

[MarkPftw]

As bad as UK has played, they are only down four..and that was with UK only hitting one three and KSU hitting SIX. I think UK's got this.

 

[Wildcats_Roar]

All things considered, down four not that bad. If we can get a lead, the crowd will help us pour it on.

 

[ck-2]

Why did we not take the last shot of the half?

 

[Bill - Shy Cat]

Will Richards see the court in 2nd half?

 

[KYJamm_rivals308443]

Kentucky laid down big stinky cat turds and still only down by 4? I'll take it.

 

[John Henry]

The good thing is we can not play any worse.

 

[KYExtemper]

As I noted earlier, we just need to get the lead. Once we clear that hurdle, I think we can get separation and run away with this but every time we get close they extend again. It's the same feeling I had in the WKU-OSU game last night (and fortunately WKU kept extending).

 

[FlCATFan_rivals26961]

We played our worst half of the season and only down by 4. I like our chances.

 

[flcatfan07]

Ugly, ugly first half... got to hit shots if were going to pull this one out... come on CATS!

 

[mkasten25]

6 of 23 shooting.

Six, SIX, 6, seis....that’s it. How the hell can a team only make six shots in a half???

Dude we made ONE jumpshot

 

[mash_24]

Happy to be down just 4. But if we don't show up second half we going home.

 

[83Cat_rivals79182]

Doesn’t Wade have two fouls? Box score only shows one on ESPN?

 

[ZZBlueComet]

Maybe coach will remind his bigs to keep the ball above vs. bringing it down, that is basketball 101

 

[katwest]

Damn, PJ got fouled before he got fouled again, then they called a jump ball after the second foul. This is pathetic, two fouls equal a jump ball. Where was K States offense the other night.

 

[ala_kat2]

Wish SGA had not passed up that layup to throw it out to Gabriel for a 3-attempt. We're going to have to ride SGA all game if we're gonna pull this thing out. Knox is invisible so far.

 

[OldRed]

Washington has earned his 20 minutes. We need to continue to play down low and get them down to that short lineup and then pound them some more until they have no one left.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

Not sure we can win IF this three point imbalance doesn't even up some .

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

At least our new 3 pt streak is still alive.
