********OFFICIAL GAME THREAD*********

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

I saw that too

That's amazing Duke coaching, right there... foul a guy, then flop trying to draw a foul...wow, just wow

 

[mhroe1984]

There's that special Duke treatment courtesy of the referees.

 

[hotelblue]

coach k: “just make your free throws”

 

[EliteBlue]

We start getting stops and the last few possessions Duke has got whistles to send them to the line instead.

It’sgreasy hard to come back from down 20. It’s going to be really hard tonight

 

[ZaytovenCat]

You know, it's amazing how many posters lose it when UK falls behind in a game. This game is not over. 28 minutes left in this game is an eternity at the pace that it is being played at. Have a little faith....

Seriously? You expect hardcore fans to just sit and be content being down 15 to Duke IN THE FIRST HALF?

 

[Himmels]

Refs have made college basketball unwatchable.

Refs, and the blatant cheating that goes on With selective enforcement

 

[stoneycat_20]

Keldon Goodwin so far....

yes, I've said this all year..He needs to pass some

 

[RoyKent]

Can you imagine paying to sit thorough this debacle?

I feel bad for those people who shelled out tons of $$$ for this ****.

 

[Wall2Boogie]

We are gonna get back in this guys. Don't know if we win. But it will be a ballgame.

A smoldering turd of an effort - half *** effort defensively and just jacking up shots.

I have faith we will get back in this game, not sure if we can win though

 

[Lovebaskelball]

Stopped a Duke layup at least.

 

[UKWildcats#8]

Wow we could hit the 14. And I saw where someone said if not for a couple bad calls it would only be 9. You know it's bad when someone's bragging about potentially being down 9... In the first half LMAO

 

[kyjeff1]

The last call on KJ was just flat out cheating. Shows is a goddamned piece of **** .

Been bad calls on both teams in this game.

 

[FilsonCat]

College basketball is an awful sport at present. Cheating is a way of life for some teams, and officiating is ruining the sport.

 

[zannmann]

Duke lovefest. ESPN makes me sick.

 

[Wildcatclone24]

If we could get it to 8 without our shooters making shots... we have a chance!

 

[Runt#1969]

No it’s in their favor. We don’t have the athletes Duke has.

Ummm ... I was of the impression our team was a LOT deeper than Duke this year? They're on pace for, like, what? 120 points in a 40 minute game?

lol

and how is that in their favor? With a deeper bench, at that pace, waitaminute.

I'm trying to make some sense. I know it won't work, this is RR.

In my best emily litella impression ...

"Nevermind"

 

[bbnkat02]

Down 15 and Travis with a goofy celebration isn't a good look.

I like the fire. We’re going to need a lot more.

 

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

Reall, really bad calls on both sides tonight... refs are whistle happy tonight!

Yep, and I would think that would favor the deeper Cats. However, Barrett appears to be the straw that stirs the Duke drink, so he is the one the Cats REALLY need to get into foul trouble.

 

[Xception]

We are gonna get back in this guys. Don't know if we win. But it will be a ballgame.

We might get back in it but I’ve seen enough to know we aren’t anywhere near as offensively talented as Duke and they’re more talented. We could eventually be a better team but it’s not a given

 

[Bkocats]

It’s not officiating overall (although that hook that should have been called and the foul on Keldon were horrible)
Our guys came out right and scared
Need to get it to single digits before the half and come out on fire

 

[Wall2Boogie]

Play Montgomery more! Right now with Travis

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Been bad calls on both teams in this game.

Show me the calls where Kentucky got 5 free points.

 

[oldsports_]

When you struggle with a Div ll team, why do you expect anything different. Cal getting out coached, just letting bad play continue.

 

[FilsonCat]

Been bad calls on both teams in this game.

Get the **** out of here you worthless piece of ****. Are you serious?

 

[NavyKat]

Duke hitting 3's and FT's. UK.........

 

[hotelblue]

Don’t worry they will go to the monitor and find a flagrant 2 on Kentucky

they tried and bilas had the excuse for them that they were looking at something else. of course they weren’t.

 

[jameslee32]

What happened to Quickley?? Oh

 

[bbnkat02]

OMG! We got a block call! Sign of the apocalypse.

 

[Cardsstink]

Cals offense sucks

No really, they are hitting 3's and we aren't.

 

[oldsports_]

Gotta get some stops.

 

[bbnkat02]

Come on guys. Just fight.

 

[Lovebaskelball]

For us to be so long, Duke looks longer.

 

[Lost In FL]

That kid looks like a duke student.

 

[kyjeff1]

Show me the calls where Kentucky got 5 free points.

We're in the double bonus. There were two calls on Duke that were pretty soft too.
We're losing because our guys aren't playing well, not because the refs

 

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

How was that a foul on Hagans?

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Back to the **** camera angle again

 

[jameslee32]

Hagans next victim.

 

[ganner918_rivals60369]

Let's get this to 8 at half

 

[richbrookstomato]

I thought Hagans was supposed to be a defensive stopper?

 

[bbnkat02]

Yep. Screws these refs.
