Funny thing about this thread is that every single poster who bashed the OP thot it was a loss as well altho many won't admit it.
Terrible loss
- Thread starter Kentuckiddy
- Start date
Oh I thought it was a loss, but im happy with the win, even OT against Vandy. Young team is learning the Will To Win, exciting to me.
Good post. :clap:
Welcome to Rupp's Rafters where some of our fans are a whistle away from being on an episode of "Snapped." :eyes::gun: [laughing]
Drinks on the left. [cheers] Snacks on the right.
opcorn:Thank you for not being a troll. :cool2:
Wow, this is kind of like taking a hand-off and then running 80 years backwards into your own end zone for a safety. Just wildly going the wrong direction.
Of course most posters thought this was a loss. They refrained from starting a thread about a loss, though, until the game was actually over.
You know why? Because most were going to be very unhappy about it, unlike the OP, who wanted to be first man in to say "I told you this team sucks", and has since spent most of this thread doubling-down on that idea.
Welcome virgin! Kenny powers is a badass. Just for you;
Watch this last minute if not all and try not to laugh! Let the boy watch!
The moral of this thread is always wait until the game is official.
Venting online is self serving, at best. It reeks of weakness and a desire to spread misery. I’ve never been tempted to whine to others about the team I support. It’s called respect.
Never tell me the odds.
Especially as excuse of why someone just had to show their ***.
Maybe the OP and those that want to wipe and dangle in sad sack defense of the sentiment expressed by them should focus more on cheering for our team and less on the Olympic towel throwing training and everyone will be a little bit happier.
Our team is embarrassing? Say what? Another weak member of Big Blue Nation. You are a member of BBN, right?
Some of the posters here appear to be disappointed that we WON.
Actually the win probability graph had us winning 5.6% at the lowest moment (down 70-65 with about 40 seconds left).
Improbable? Yeah.
But FWIW 172 games this season alone had games where a team with less of a chance winning ended up winning to put things into perspective.

I think we had to score 7 points in the final 30 seconds of the game against Kansas at home in the Pitino era to get the win. Anyone can beat anyone on any given day. Take the win and be grateful for the lucky ending.
You don't deserve to watch this team in march your not a fan .
Well then don't watch your not a fan of Kentucky we don't need you . I enjoy watching this team and am behind them 100 % .
140 replies. Yes! Haha.
Still stick with what I said even though the outcome changed.
Would have been 240 replies IF we lost. Glad we didn’t.
I’ll eat crow for jumping the gun but if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck....

What I hate to see is you were going to post a negative post win or lose. You said all you'd change was the title to "Terrible Win." No such thing as a terrible win if you ask me. Did we play good, no. Did we show signs of improvement in some categories? Yes. Like only having 9 Turnovers, shooting above our season average from the FT line, the will to win and never giving up. Overall bad game but there were positives. I can't imagine waiting to post a negative post win or less for a team I claim to root for.
I actually enjoy the process every year. Sounds like you hate it...and it is the SAME every year since Cal got here. I find it difficult to believe that you can't peg the psychology of the 18 year olds that we get to see the process of every single year for the last 8-9 years.
If you've ever began a project and was there from beginning to end, you know the fruit is at the end...or March for UK. There a many bumps in the road and various ups and downs, but there is beauty in the grind too. It makes the fruit that much sweeter.
I'm thankful we get to witness this every year, rather than just know what you've got with upperclassmen...which usually includes major limitations, or else they wouldn't be upperclassmen. We get to see some of the most talented players go through this maturation every year...and I find it very rewarding every time.
I wouldn't say I hate it. The only years I haven't really enjoyed the regular season would be '13 '14' and this year. Just so much youth so you have so many mistakes. I can live with the mistakes. I said in another thread, I can live with the bad shot selection, and the bad passes. They're learning. The thing that drives me bonkers is the lack of effort this team displays so much each game. They seem to go through the motions. '14 showed signs of that too and once March and the win or go home mentality hit, they picked it up so I'm hoping the same thing hits this team.
In 2010, I remember watching Cousins get better and better and then in January, that flip just switched. Karl Towns just getting better in '15 How the '11 team learned to play team ball. Even though the '16 team went home early, I enjoyed that season with all the up and downs. These kids have the ability and they show it in flashes but they just need to put it all together and with no great teams out there, anything is possible with this team.
This is just as big an epic fail thread as Zays was.
Lots of replies sure, but those replies are making fun of you for being an idiot.
You actually think I care what any person says on this board? I’ve went about my day as normal and peeked in a few times to see some of y’all blow a fuse and others agree that this game was pitiful and we should have lost.
Man, I live my life unattached to a message board. What’s hilarious is how most can’t believe someone would actually say seconds before a game ended that we lost. The second thing is all the hypocrites on here thought exactly the same thing and were ready to pounce on this team. What’s gonna be fun is when I burn some asses in the next few weeks...talk about eating crow. I’m serving that sum b****h twice.
The 2011 team started conference play 5-5 and was far more frustrating than this team. Seems like you have a bad memory. It amazes me how fans just somehow forget the growing pains we always have and think we should be a well-oiled machine from the start. Not a sign of high bball IQ.
Not a bad memory. Maybe just a difference of an opinion. All those losses happened on the road and the Cats had a shot to win in all of them. That team dominated at home in the SEC too.
