I'll go first:

Amari has 10+ reminds, less than 3 turnovers
Kerr hits two 3s(not predicting out of how many)
Butler has at least 14 points
Carr bounces back a little and shoots 50 percent or better.

I think we’ll put up a good fight but ultimately lose 84-78.

Oweh - 17 points
Carr - 13 points, 8 boards
Kerr - bounce back game with a couple 3’s and 6 assists

Robinson will be off again and the “can he deliver in big games” talk will intensify.

I think our shooting woes continue, long road trip plays a factor. Confidence a bit shaken from recent play a hang over from the disappoinent of the Clemson game.

Butler will go but be limited in his effectiveness, Kriisa will continue his struggles and forcing of shots.

Cats lose by 10+ before returning to form next week, by blowing out Colgate and UofL scoring an average of 94.5.

Gonzaga 84, Kentucky 71

Really pains me to say. Even if Butler plays, he won’t be 100% and the up and down pace will make it hard for us without him. I still think we have a chance but i could also see a moderate blowout. I really hope I am wrong. I will say there is a scenario where Robinson, Kriisa and Carr just go nuclear from three and we pull it off but I’m not counting on it. Gonzaga will be able to key in on Robinson even more without a healthy Butler.

I don't have any predictions. I'm just wondering if Gonzaga plays as physical as South Carolina--will the refs allow them to play as physical as South Carolina--and will Kentucky be able to handle it if they do.

Do you mean Clemson? If so, then not quite AS physical but still very physical. Their 5 is going to be a load.

Yeah, gonna be tough, but up and down pace migh play into ourhands. This team prefers run and gun. Who knows. These guys are still trying to figure each other our in tough game situations. Regardless of outcomes, I like this team.

It's easy to see how somebody could mistake Clemson and USCjr; they're both from South Carolina and nobody gives a damn about either one.

Cats look better due to pace of play, just not enough talent to win this game on the road.

Oweh 19 points, 7 rebounds.
Robinson 15 points, 4 boards

Gonzaga 81 - Cats 72

I hope I'm wrong, but we just might not be as good as we thought from 3. In 40% of our games so far we've shot less than 30%. Tonight will most likely be another tough one.

We have two shooters that have yet to shoot close to their averages yet but have done it in major conferences: Kerr and Robinson. Let’s wait to see where we are in a couple weeks before we give into the notion that we aren’t that good at shooting threes

Robinson has been a volume guy his whole career, so it’s not shocking he is shooting the percentages he is, but Krisa I expect more from

10 pm start time doesn’t thrill anybody. Not sure why they couldn’t have backed that up at least an hour. Prospect of staying up til 1 am to lose doesn’t sit well either. Dumbdick must’ve set that time last year before leaving us.

Robinsons catch and shoot numbers were excellent though and he hasn’t been there so far. Shooting 35% from 3 last year with the difficult shots he took would be a big deal for us if he can get close to that number.

Pretty sure TV networks sets the times.

No one cares about college basketball in December.

Espn and abc want people watching college football, which people do care about.

For some reason, I think Chandler will have a good game tonight. Seems like his type of game, especially if he gets some extended minutes depending on the Butler situation. I feel he and Perry can fill a Butlerless hole as long as everybody else doesn’t have off games. Hopefully Butler can play and we have a lot of options off the bench.

I'll likely be wasted by gametime.
The announcers on our game will find a reason to bring up Cooper Flagg.
If Butler can't play at 100% we're screwed.

Jimmy dykes will be calling the game. He’ll be talking about violent cuts too much to mention cooper

I hope he can man. It seems like every game he will hit his first or second shot and then go ice cold

Yeah I actually just checked. Robinson is shooting wayyyyy below his numbers from last year. I see that as a good thing. He’s going to progress to his average. Last year he hit over 35% from 3 and over 90% from FT. This year, he is shooting a horrid 30.8% from 3 and only 73% from FT. This kid is going to go nuclear at some point.

NSS. As a Kentucky fan I could give two ***** about December football. These conference championship games are a joke.

Gonzaga by 10 but it won't feel that close.

Without shooting the heck out of three don't have the horses to compete with top tier teams this year.

We beat Duke and we would’ve beat Clemson if Butler hadn’t of got in foul trouble and hurt his ankle!
