So, Clemson has a 3pt made by 2 guys who are 25% and 15% career shooters, respectively.

Meanwhile, the Cats can't get them fall even by guys like Almonor (>40% career) or Kriisa 36% career

Then if you are me you tend to stay up for an hour or two after that reading threads all night about the end of the world lol.
Ain't the end of the world, but be ready for the media and other fan bases to start calling us flukes. And it's gonna suck and hurt.

We aren't Top 10. Gotta earn it. We haven't tonight so far.

Not an impressive showing so far. Road games are tough.
Road game or not it’s painfully obvious that Amari Williams is a weak link and is being used in ways that do not align with his abilities. It’s a disaster and it’s my biggest criticism of Mark Pope to this point. He sees this guy day and day out in practice and throws him out there expecting him to be different?

This game doesn’t change my opinion of this team one bit. They’ve had multiple chances to fold and they keep fighting. This game is a preview of life to come in the SEC with the usual hacking and grabbing and then ticky tack crap called on us. The open shots will fall in March.

Another BS Cal!!!!!!

UK is the PREMIER supporter of College Basketball yet we get treated HORRIBLY by the very people that depend on that support.

These Refs and the NCAA are RIDICULOUS!!!

8-0 in the SEC/ACC Challenge. All we had to do is win this game and the SEC clinched on Night 1.

Ugh. This sucks.

Not playing Butler this stretch is going to cost us the game, really don’t get this decision to play Krissa

Were at the point where you play the guy with 3 fouls with 10 or so minutes left. We won't win without him and we can't wait until we're down 10.

Play Butler and deal with the fouls.

Unless Butler’s ankle is worse than it initially appeared, giving Kerr such an extended run was a weird choice at this point in the game. His shot isn’t falling so far this year, and he keeps getting abused on defense.

Robinson was severely overhyped. He's been terrible in the 2 biggest games to date.
I'm saying! Pope should have never recruited him from BYU. maybe he was desperate for bodies since the Cal exodus. Kid's return was hyped because of his NBA interest. Now we know that interest wasn't reciprocated. That's why he came back.

We're winning this game, gentlemen.
Hope so. But big *** MO for Clemson.

Hard to beat 8-5 and 9000 in the crowd.

Especially when we have TO as much as we have.

Down 7 under 8 and another TO.


We're more than likely cooked.

Just doesn't feel like this is going to be our night. The shooting, the rebounding, having to rely too much on Krissa because of Butler's foul and injury issues. But it's not over yet.
