Glanced at the TV and saw a white headband on a dude in a #15 jersey and my brain said "Big Cuz!". :)

Disappointing, dispassionate start for a UK team that has had ten days to prepare for this game.

I fear this is a 10-8 SEC team.

I wouldn't fear that

If we go 10-8 that could very well be 3rd/4th in the SEC and maybe a 4 seed in the NCAA tournament.

Which going into this season I think anyone would take knowing what we were dealing with here.

The issue is that the offense still doesn't look locked in. This is another horrible opponent, and we've only got one full half of intense play on both sides of the ball this month (2nd half verse Gonzaga).

Garrison didn't even go for that rebound. Just watched it land. Thankfully Robinson happened to be there.

Exactly. There used to be purpose and intensity on offense.

At some point I think we all have to realize we simply aren’t a good 3-pt shooting team, and that’s a scary proposition with this SEC gauntlet ahead of us.

Thank goodness for the mute button. I hate ads. Hate them. Just a quick reminder - I HATE ads.

I just found out my niece was part of the choir that sang the National Anthem for the game. Anyone hear them sing? How did they sound?

Very happy with defensive effort so far. Pleased with ball screen defense specifically. That’s the main thing I’m looking for today, not the score

Brown’s big guy just rooted Garrison out of the way and got an easy bucket.

Well..just got home
Not sure what’s going on
I think the simple answer is that we simply aren’t a very good offense right now, and if we aren’t hitting 3s (we aren’t hitting many again), we flat-out struggle, even against a team like Brown.

Starting to believe we're just a team of average dudes with a potent offensive scheme that doesn't work with average dudes.
