WHOOPASS

 

[caneintally]

Beat the spread without Fox or Mulder. This team is so nasty .

 

[Bellcat70]

Tournament like game in mid-season. Opportunity to show what they are made of. How will they adjust to adversity? HOF coach will get it done. I say we play them even or better 2nd half.

Did I call it or what?

This team is getting better every game. This was the #1 ranked defense and we didn't have Fox.
They couldn't stop Fox. It was going to be a 40 point win.

Our bigs have shown the most improvement over the last few games.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

They score 4 on the scrub unit in the final minute, or it's a 20 pt win, with Fox missing most of the game, and stall ball the final 7 minutes. On the #1 defense.

 

[zannmann]

Hope Allen gets tossed for tripping and Duke loses.

 

[JoeBeeHall]

Did they cover spread ?

 

[NavyKat]

ray: for someone's right ankle....

 

[kyjeff1]

Ya think?

Couldn't guard Thornwell, 0 points, 4 fouls, 8 turnovers.

Maybe the worst night a UK player has ever had.

NO!
Signed: Ryan freaking Harrow.

 

[KentuckyStout]

Fox blowing through the handshake line with no crutches. Good sign.

 

[caneintally]

Held them under 40% . In fact only one team has shot above 45% against us in the SEC. And it was the Ref game last time out. But our D sucks remember [eyeroll]

Did they cover spread ?

Yes

 

[oldsports_]

So much for Briscoe being a lock down defender..........

 

[kyjeff1]

If Wenyen continues on this trajectory he will make this team so much better than what they are.
I honestly don't know how big the impact would be, but with his frame and athleticism, he can shred defenses and the boards. Hitting threes the way he is really opens the floor.

They crept over 40% with those 2 baskets in the final minute against the reserves.

He gives us another solid rebounder and 3pt shooter, both of which are sorely needed.

 

[Bellcat70]

Somebody tweet Seth the results.

 

[Bellcat70]

Let's be honest though: SC has missed a ton of wide open 3's, and that's be a big part of the win, IMO. Without Fox we're just not the same team, particularly when our other guards get into foul trouble.

I don't agree. We outplayed them at their own game.

And not just an average rebounder or shooter either, what he's done the last three games is pretty impressive. His 3 point shooting has been phenomenal.
