Not sure what to think. Are we overrated or

we are overrated, we are having about the worst game we can, and its a bum team playing over their head like always against UK.
We are a bit overrated. A great group to watch though.
Yes, we are overrated. Williams, Carr, and Garrison will be our downfall, because we have to play at least two of them and none of them are good. Our bench is thin, as Krissa is huge liability and Almanor is a negative if he can’t hit open threes (missed all three tonight).
Just need a legit go to scorer…wish we could’ve got Lanier. He’s a true difference maker.
This has been a game where nothing has gone our way and we’re still in it. Clemson has dictated everything about it so far. We just need to keep pushing and who knows what can happen the last few minutes.
Both…we were not a top 5 team but also, this has been nonsense from a whole lot of dudes tonight
Yeah, I predict that we will have some players try to be heroes towards the end of this game and they will fail.
We are probably a bit overrated but come on did anyone really expect to be fourth in the nation before the season started? All I was hoping for was a win in the NCAA tournament.
We are clearly a very good team, but are over-rated. So is Duke.
We're at about 14, this team is better than I thought a team would be the first year after Cal though.
A little overrated but a lot soft. That’s what concerns me. Not near tough as we need to be. Hunting fouls and pleading to the zebras after contact. Just sack up and match their physicality. Other teams are getting the blueprint
Clemson was an Elite 8 team last season…they aren’t chump change
They’ve been allowed to play as physical as they please while our top 2 players have had 4 fouls most the second half…2 guys with a reputation of not fouling while defending.
The way the game has been officiated plays to Clemson muck it up and prevent rhythm style

Farr Pope!
Nah, just a dose of reality for this group. Clemson is a tough experienced team. Lots of games left, this team is still trying to gel. Games still not over yet, but we are seeing what’s gonna happen when the threes aren’t falling.

Do people not remember last year ? Top teams were losing games like this on the road all year .
It’s not like this is some mid major

Absolutely Kentucky was hugely overrated. We have no business being 4th in the nation but still massively exceeding expectations from before the season started.
Honestly, as ugly as this game has been, we hit a couple more 3’s and we win. How damn many did we miss tonight? Terrible shooting.
6-25
Not gonna win many games with 6-25

If I say we’re overrated I’ll get called a troll but I don’t care. We are overrated. We struggle to run fluid offense against Any kind of team that has high major players. Not the cupcakes. Maybe that will change as we get more used to it
Barnes will eat our lunch with how physical his teams are.
Played about as bad as we can play. Got bullied. Laid bricks.
I had a bad feeling about this one but hoped it was just gas or something.
We are slightly overrated.

Good lord you guys, it's one game. A true road game to a decent team. It's not even remotely close to a bad loss. We'll be fine. Never change though Rafters, this place is wild.
I just hope butlers ankles doesent cause problems the rest of the week and he’s healthy for Gonzaga
In reality, we have no idea if we’ll exceed expectations. Every night on the road in the SEC will be this way.
We are good but not great. We have nice players but no NBA caliber game changers.
True but I meant right now we are exceeding expectations at this point in the season.
We are a little overrated right now but I still love this team. Clemson was allowed to play very physical tonight while our top players were called for quick fouls to get them in trouble? Saturday will be another very difficult game no doubt. I'm good with where we are in Pope's very 1st season with an empty roster to start with. Let's let the season play out. Way too many people ripping on players here tonight but that's the Rafters way I guess. Clemson just played a better football game than us tonight.
Yep - solid team that never gives up and fights like hell. But not a top 5 team.
Well what did you expect after Calipari left? If anything the last Cal years should have shown having NBA talent doesn't mean a whole lot.
The problem is that we’ve been exposed. And this wasn’t the first game in which our major weaknesses have been exposed. So that you understand, I’ll spell it out for you:
1. Our bigs are woeful.
2. Our bench is thin. Brea is the only good bench player, and he ought to start.
3. We don’t have a reliable backup point guard. Krissa is a plus/minus nightmare.
4. We are a poor defensive team that gives up a ton of open looks and layups.
5. We do not have a go to scorer.
Yes overrated.
SOS early on can do that
Honestly Robinson needs to be better
Not sure why Brea never plays
Butler great game but Kerr equally as bad tonight

Great teams don’t let a team like Clemson dictate everything
Clemson is a 10 loss team make no mistake about that
