Was never worried or nervous about this game
As I said before I expected this type of game and result
Heck Tenn only beat Vandy by 12 at home

Bench got a whole lot of play tonight and it looked like Cal was playing with lineups again

Missouri with 16 more FG attempts...UK with only 42. Way too low, though UK was a stellar 17-20 at the line. Missouri did what teams should do against UK...dirty it up, sag off Hagans, force UK to beat them from the 3 and the FT line. Also, too many turnovers tonight for UK not to mention 13 offensive rebounds for Missouri.

Still, given what happened w/ Reid, take the 8 point win and move on.

That was a tough game to watch. Two things doomed the watchability of that game before it even started, a Pat Adams crew and a Cuonzo Martin coached team. Both those things destroy the flow of any game.

Chill dude. I don’t think any of us are happy with the second half performance, but we didn’t blow the lead.

No. But that was frustrating as heck to watch. Especially after we manhandled UT. We’ve got to start putting teams away.
I’m glad for the W. But the lack of rebounding was awful.

How bout that Missouri crowd though?

Fortunately, they've managed to run off all the racists from their campus, leaving only the classy "big blue balls" and "Cal you suck" crowd to invigorate the cheering experience.

We were at 41 at the half and then early in the second half were doing as well. Then, the whistle from the refs went off too often and changed the flow of the game and we never got the flow back. But, we were never in danger of losing the game.

That’s incredible. What a complete shitshow that second half was.

We were still up 15 before that started. Possibly Travis getting hurt took a little out of them. Shouldn’t, but they had the look of a team who was just trying to get to the house. Too bad the other bigs didn’t step up.

UK only had one FG attempt in last 7:00 of the game. Insane!

We better hope this ref crew doesn't show up to Knoxville when we play there. Definitely will ruin the game.

Losing Reid especially for rebounds and the frequent whistles stopping any offensive continuity are really the story here. No need to meltdown. I expected us to win by 6-8 so ultimately it ended up about where I expected even if the first half looked like we were headed for a blowout.


Saturday I believe we run Auburn off the court.
