UCLA is just hungrier...

[Blue_White_KY]

I think their simply out working our guys. Their hustling to the balls. Controlling the boards. Thank GOD Poythress started to grab some. He just seems limited offensively still.
That *** whipping from last year must have really burnt into their brains. They hungry.

Also have a solid game plan forcing us to shoot jumpers and clogging the lane with their sagging man to man.

You nailed it

You nailed it

They are also out-shooting us. The name of the game is putting the ball through the basket. We have limited jump shooters.

 

[Xception]

The first 5 minutes will be a good indication if we're going to show up

 

[wromanp7]

POY is weak.

 

[catfan in loserville]

You called it. These guys need this more than they know. Exactly how road games in the SEC will be. Pretty close to a NCAAT feel to this game, it shows that u have to play at a very high level to make a deep run.

 

[Dreklie]

These refs ain't helping. Looking very bad right now.

 

[From-the-stands]

Plus, as usual, we get nothing but the best effort from any team we face.

No one ever takes the night off when UK is on the opposing jersey.

 

[Xception]

POY is weak.

I've always been a big defender of POY , I'm out of ammo

 

[letitrainuk_rivals88012]

You can play a lot looser when you can get away with the ticky tack fouls

 

[wromanp7]

UN real.

 

[Fancatstik]

and the Lions are up 20 - 0 on the Packers. Just one of those nights.

Kentucky just isn't good this year. And revenge is on everybody's mind..

 

[Mattcg]

We suck

Im confused why we look so lost on defense.

Why is college basketball just a free throw shooting contest these days?

 

[MrKentucky]

I'm not usually a "they want it more" guy, but man alive did we look scared and disinterested tonight.

 

[CatPhight_rivals65113]

Poythress and Murray are still on the pier.

I read an article once that favored teams traveling at least two time zones west are much less likely to cover. It shouldn't be a factor tonight with the late start, but man everybody just looks sluggish and lost tonight. UCLA looks like they want it more, because, with the exception of Briscoe, we are in a fog.

 

[bucsrule8872]

The Bruins are playing with a lot more heart and energy.

We got punched in the mouth tonight, I hope this loss gets their attention.

Do they rush the court?
