Kentucky @ Louisville Game Thread

[Rainmaker]

You can't be top 10 with a D as bad as we have.

Lenin had us ranked 3rd in D. It’s not as bad as this one game makes it appear. We are fine.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Unlike many of the fans in this thread

We all still watching

 

[Drogon]

Kam is developing just fine. The guy has lottery POTENTIAL. Just give him patience.

 

[megablue]

No matter how these last 9 minutes go both these teams are top 10 teams. Louisville has executed much better better than we have. It’s a home game for them and 3rd game of the year. No need to panic but definitely things we must improve on to be a legit contender. Let’s see how much fight we have these last 9!

We are good
Lou is good

 

[kywildcat1021979]

He better not get an extension anytime soon!

You know Mitch he probably has it built in if he makes it to the 2nd round it probably adds another year. What is it for Stoops if he wins 7 he gets another year added?

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

I honestly believe PK is a better coach than Pope, he’s built a complete roster with a lot of interchangeable pieces.

Well, he’s definitely a good coach but he has a lot of fire and energy. Teams take on the coaches personality. Pope thinks everything is beautiful and cute. And the players are playing that way.

 

[UKCowboys]

Too little too late..

You wearing a red shirt bro?

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Hopefully UL is getting tired and we make a run here.

 

[BBNinSCar]

Garrison is having a bad game. This team needs the big man presence that JQ will provide.

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

Every single bit of excitement I had for this season is fading. I can handle a close, hard fought loss. But, what I'm seeing tonight is embarrassing.

Every year we keep saying is this the year that we’re good. But no, we’re still waiting.

 

[UKCowboys]

That 3 by Kam looked pure

Louisvillle is the 13th ranked team and it's on their court. First true road game for us. We can't act like this is Kenny Payne's version of Louisville.

This sucks, I get it, but this happens. Heck we beat Kansas worse than this on their home floor a few years ago. At least this is on the road.

And just like that, it's down to 8.

And they are better than 13

 

[cornbreadnmilk]

You wearing a red shirt bro?

No I just have a brain bro...

 

[Kattonik]

uk 11 3ptrs

ul 13

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Everyone is gassed. Kam has fresh legs. Let’s go!!

 

[ToniTonyToneDelkDelkDelk]

So you want me to believe that they had practices and workouts all summer long and then the season started and for some reason Trent Noah was getting major minutes on this team over Kam Williams?

 

[rick64]

Amazing how easy the game is when shots are falling.

 

[Anon1751335390]

Christ. Horrible decision by Lowe when we had a chance to get it to 6.

 

[sefus12]

Freaking Lowe

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Just no answer for Brown.

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Dang lucky miss and TO.

 

[kyjeff1]

It makes quite a bit of sense. Are you watching the same game as me? Is Pope out-coaching Kelsey? Did our gameplan match the strengths and weaknesses of our squad and theirs? Get real, dude.

Game's not over.

But after everything Pope did last year, you're going to trash him like this when it’s frwaking November in our 3rd game, which is being played in a hostile environment?

It's not like we're losing to unc wilmington at home.

 

[UKBB4Ever]

Kentucky hasn’t played defense in 8 years

The ‘20 team was pretty good defensively.

But I agree, none since then.

 

[ala_kat2]

Aberdeen seems to be the only player we have who can create his own 10 foot jumper and actually hit it.

 

[Farsight Clone]

So I guess the refs chose brown as the guy who can’t be touched. But it doesn’t matter because we haven’t played well consistently

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

just needs some stops.

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Kentucky hasn’t played defense in 8 years

I know crazy and that’s 2 different coaches

 

[KYSouthpaw]

Man we gotta have an answer for Garrison. He does little to nothing. Play Jelavic. Hell, play Potter.

JQ is the answer. At least I hope he is!

Again, my issue has been the coaching and not the score. If you think he’s coached a great game, good for you. Great job lying to yourself

 

[Anon1751335390]

We need a bucket and an Oweh steal + runout.

 

[kywildcat1021979]

You know what’s crazy when’s the last time Oweh actually made a 3.

 

[ChicagoCat90]

JQ is the answer. At least I hope he is!

I can't wait for him to get healthy and spend the rest of the season working on his 3's!

 

[sefus12]

Why does Oweh keep shooting 3s? He’s freaking horrible.

 

[ToniTonyToneDelkDelkDelk]

Oweh building a new Wildcat Lodge with all these bricks man.

 

[kyjeff1]

Ok…none of that means Pope doesn’t deserve fans to be pissed about his coaching tonight.

He definitely does, but some of the things you guys are saying, are crazy.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

I know it's not a huge factor or the reason we lost... but this series needs to be played roughly the same time of year, every season. Kind of ******** that we had to go to UofL for the 3rd game of the season, when it should have been late december like it was for them at Rupp.

 

[Drogon]

McNeeley looks like a younger Grayson Boucher(the Professor)

 

[kybassfan]

Gotta stop trading baskets.

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Man Kam is playing like a beast

 

[philstat]

Oweh needs to quit trying to shoot from three to audition for the NBA and focus on winning in college.

What did he do last year? How many games did we lose? We got our *** kicked in the tournament by a team we beat twice in the regular season right?
