***U.K. vs Auburn Game Thread***

[TortElvisII]

How big of lead does this team need going into the last 4 minutes to not blow a game? 12, 10, 8

 

[HenryMuto]

Not sure why Kentucky was favored today. At some point they need to be an underdog they are 5-13 and they keep getting favored or barely being a dog. Absurd.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Mintz and Boston both sat the last 5-6 minutes with 2 fouls each.

Lucky to only be down 6.

Infinity, lol.

Who's this ole beardy crusty *** bastard?!?

Pearl or Kellogg?

 

[kywildcat1021979]

SOS ignored

I sure thought that SOS was everything! @HerrosHeroes what's up with us not making the top 16?

 

[philstat]

Pearl or Kellogg?

No comerical, red hair dude with the chicken.

 

[katwest]

I have seen several times in the first half where if we had blocked out or tried to draw a charge we could have but as usual don't do much of either. They are beating us to loose balls too and we can't hit, sad.

 

[fatguy87]

We keeping taking the worst shot in basketball. Our offense is going to suck when we rely so heavily on midrange 2's.

If we can't get to the rim, we really should be launching 30 3's a game. Those 15 footers from Toppin, Brooks, and Boston are waste of possessions.

True.

Had they played it would have been 12 or 14.

 

[StubbornPenny]

It's really fascinating to see just how awful we are, and STILL are this late in the season. I mean we are real bad. Confusingly bad. Epically bad. It's so weird.

At least CBS knows how to broadcast a game. No split screens or 10 minute interviews during live action.

Glad to keep making money every game.

Wonder what Bobby Bones is doing today?

Who's this ole beardy crusty *** bastard?!?

One of the coaches that’s been mopping the floor with Cal lately

 

[TortElvisII]

Lilly has some big uns.

Yet here we are in another dog fight only down 6 at half and should get the ball first.

Probably 20 point lead

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Yea Cal's daddy!

 

[Lovebaskelball]

he was...not even close...in fact nearly OVER the line.....but have you noticed that the "replay" are non-existent? hmmm kinda always wondered about that when in certain scenarios

It was a 3, just rewind and look.

What’s your point. The last quote is very valid. There’s been very, very little improvement over the season. It would take this group all 4 years at this pace to develop into a team that could contend for a title.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Good first half. We are really trying out there.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

Good losing effort yet again. The stats show it's not this close.

Well isn't that what some people want? More 4 year guys lol

 

[TortElvisII]

With skills

 

[megablue]

Good first half. We are really trying out there.

I agree. Cannot fault the effort.

My point is to read all that you would think we were down 12-15 points.
Not the case.

 

[jessieshorts8]

Well isn't that what some people want? More 4 year guys lol

But we know most of these guys will leave anyway.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

Nice set there , I liked it

 

[Crawfords Corner]

BOSTON FOR 3!!!!!!

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

With skills

But not too much skill because those guys mostly jump to the NBA lol. It's a hard mix to find IMO

 

[Crawfords Corner]

MINTZ FOR 3 TIE GAME

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

Way too go Mintz .

 

[oldsports_]

Poor Askew

 

[Thunder Mash]

Come on, Askew. Blocked again.

 

[ck-2]

Askew would be a good middle school scorer.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Askew USE UR FOOKING BRAIN, go high off the glass

 

[StubbornPenny]

Hey, we can hit threes now!

 

[Captain_Kentucky]

How do u miss that dunk

 

[germuk]

Askew shows the ball way too much. Blocked three times just putting the ball out there to get swatted. Feels like a key momentum momentum surge there
