Basketball is an easy game when you play it the right way. We certainly didn't do that tonight. I will give Pope a break tonight because he is obviously feeling the pressure.

It's about time we draw the garbage 14 seed instead of Oakland and St. Peters. We should be up 40 on this bunch.
Glad we are going to get a tournament win but we need more…. Glad Pope will get his first tournament win…. It’s just such a relief
Stall Ball means no offense. I don't mind milking clock, but you have to score when you do.
I very much agree. And this game means nothing how we played. Guys could play completely different next one
Williams playing like a broke-dick dog.
Put in Garrison and Almanor.
Save legs for next game.

You think Illinois or Xavier is going to drop 90? Games are going to tighten up as this tournament goes deeper.
Even the commentators said “thank you” for that dunk!
yes, it was a struggle. but we're gonna get the win. Nice work, hard work, will do better next game.
You get 2 points when you dunk it like that Amari
One thing for sure , we are going no where , with no chance , without Lamont .. and troy is hot stinky ***
Come back @bookerfan66 where you laughing at now? Players get bored up big, doesn’t matter who the coach is. Players pulled it together and extended the lead. You think the coach did that 
Just more morons who’ve never played beyond high school with a bad opinion.

FU CBS and your absurd ranking this the 2nd best 1st round game of the year. That was a FN joke.
A Troy-over-Kentucky result ranks high on the "wouldn't it be hilarious?" list for the first weekend of the tournament. Amid widespread fan frustration, John Calipari left Kentucky for Arkansas after losing to No. 14 seed Oakland in the first round of last year's tournament. Now, his successor Mark Pope, is trying to avoid a No. 14 vs. No. 3 loss of his own.
2. (3) Kentucky vs. (14) Troy

We're less than 2 minutes from being able to talk MAJOR **** to UofL boys.
It's all good until we actually play a good team and end up losing the lead.Come back @bookerfan66 where you laughing at now? Players get bored up big, doesn’t matter who the coach is. Players pulled it together and extended the lead. You think the coach did that

Illinois is very capable of dropping 90. They are a very good team.
Someone fuggin finally got in Williams ear told him dunk the fuggin ball
Lmao they roasted Amari with that line. “Maybe he was afraid Williams wouldn’t dunk it.”
