lol it's hilarious how, at the end of our last blowout win, this thread was full of people whining that we were playing the starters too much and should put the other guys in to get experience. This game, we do just that and let the blowout get closer, this thread is full of people whining that we didn't blow them out.
QFT. Yes we blew the big lead, but no, that’s nothing to get worked about.

Cal made them go into half court slow down offense the last 5 minutes and you see what that’s like.

Didn’t help that Mintz and TY twice missed the front end.

Seems like a cigar lineup.. or if anything Cal is giving some rest and trying to get those guys more reps.

It's not like we played that lineup in the first 30 min, yeah?
Not sure if you are being sarcastic or not but that's the lineup that gave up the 11-0 run in the first half.

It's amazing how bad a team can look when you decide to take the air out of the ball.
We really didn’t. Couldn’t buy a bucket. Hell Grady clanked a wide open shot there towards the end.

Got a good win against a Top 50 D. On the road. Let’s go get ready for Ewe-Tee.

Great game until the last 6 minutes. These scoring droughts are gonna be what puts us out to pasture this season.

78-50 with 6:13 left and we let it turn into this. Takes away all the excitement from how good they were playing.

Vandy had two runs that total 29-0. That’s pitiful
It helped you in the prediction contest because you undercut me by one point..

That’s why Cal will never win another NC. He just makes stupid in game decisions or not at all. The only way we win another is if the players ignore him.

At least Calipari sounds pissed about the players giving up the lead. Next time let these players sit the bench and learn from there

You don't think that maybe a tiny bit of that lead going away was just us taking the foot off the pedal?

If it was a closer game the starters wouldn't have gone out and we wouldn't have had that stretch. Least not vs Vandy.
