Kentucky and Purdue review with a Prediction

[rivercatinfl]

It's a scrimmage,who knows. Both coaches will be pulling out all stops to win. Given our two best players, One hurt and the other rusty from not playing all summer with turf toe, I would guess Purdue has an advantage. However we don't really know how our team will play with so many new comers, somebody might get hot. Regardless until we have full healthy roster it is hard to gauge how this performance will be a real test of this teams future. JQ is the wildcard for this team, get him healthy and playing and UK becomes something else altogether. We will have none of those questions answered tomorrow night.

100% agree. I'm not usually a glass half empty guy but the JQ plays this year I will be thrilled. I can see it go either way at this point.

I’m looking forward to watching but man I’m feeling some stress like it’s a March game!

Also, gonna be a bit late. This thing stripping off a 5 pm CStT is awful for us WKY folks.

If our team last year outrebounded theirs by more than six points per game then our new squad ought to slaughter their mostly rehashed squad on the boards.

I wouldn't be surprised if we lose by double digits without Lowe. At the end of the day, this game will mean little compared to the actual season.

Braden Smith should be a top 5 college player this year. This early I think our defense will struggle, eventually the athletic-ness of this roster becomes a good defensive team but communication will lack early. On Offense we likely don't have set roles except for Oweh and that will cause some confusion.

I'd predict Purdue 77 UK 65

Almost nailed the score just had the wrong winner haha

I was off just a little,I only had the Cat's winning by 5,74-69

This team has a lot of weapons. I was really impressed with our rebounding. Much better defensively. Offense will get better.

This team has a lot of depth, looks like they could go 10 deep easily.

I think we go out and play loose. Kick their *** by about 15. It’s Purdue vs Kentucky. Let’s not get to caught up in them being preseason #1. I just wish JQ was ready to go.

I wanna see this team use the press. Always heard about Pitinos teams. Be nice to see an aggressive defensive team.

Can I toot my own horn for this one lol. Let me make it two for two we win the national championship this year. And I’m done with predictions.

I think we win by 10 at least.

Slow *** little 10 team can’t keep up.

Initially thought crazy, blue glasses, crack. Now think, I would appreciate your stock picks.

 

[UK’98UK’00]

Cats lose by double digits. Only because it is early and Purdue brings back players that have been in their system for a while and were pretty darn good last season. Different story in post season.

Go Cats!

You chose poorly

Nice prediction. There was some pressing but about 1000 miles from Pitino’s press the cats used under him.
