Purdue doing the one thing they can’t afford and giving Tennessee a bunch of easy layups on runouts. If they just take care of the ball, I’m not convinced Tennessee can score enough to win.

Seems like it would be more effective to defend Edey by putting the defender in front of him to deflect the inlet pass or steal it. He always posts with his back to the basket. If you get burned over the top occasionally so what.

I’m not sure Tennessee is really getting burned by the refs that much. It doesn’t necessarily have to be an even number of fouls per team to be a fair game. They hack and grab on defense a lot more than Purdue does.

They aren't. Tennessee is getting away with a lot too.

Dagger 3 there.

UT is going to need to get some steals or force turnovers to comeback. Edey is unstoppable otherwise.

Because we didnt beat the **** out of UT @ UT.

Purdue is perfect for UK. Most teams don’t have the big guys to contest Edey. Could’ve thrown 3 7 footers at the mofo
We don’t either lol do you remember what Gonzaga’s bigs did to us ???? Edey would foul every single one our centers out

And a lot of that was started by Gonzaga guard penetration or pick and roll. Purdue offense is much more stagnant

Seton Hall beat UConn, it doesn't mean they're better. Tennessee also kicked out *** at Rupp Season long results tell you a lot more about who's better than a single game does, and both of these teams are a lot better than we are.

That’d be cool and could call it a fluke if Kentucky also didn’t beat UNC, Alabama and Auburn.

Kentucky had more problems with mid majors than highly ranked teams all season

Knecht was insane but took a stupid shot against Edey and Purdue is finally headed to a Final Four

Not trying to be a jerk. Just saying we can’t make it out of the first round against teams like St Peters and Oakland. Kinda sounds stupid to say we are better than teams in the elite 8. But I do get why you say it. We have equal or more talent than either of these teams. But our coach approaches these games like it’s a McDonald’s AA game.
