U6 not going to shoot like this every night.
That's the only thing I hate about basketball. You can play someone and they just hit every damn shot. And there's nothing you can do. You don't really see that kind of thing in other sports.

Nice fight by the cats in this half though. Kam Williams has to get more playing time.

Very true. It’s why the NCAA Tournament is honestly the worst way to crown a champ.

It’s hard to do that in football. If you’re bigger, faster, and stronger then it’s hard to stop that which is why there’s not much parity in college football.

Baseball is the closest thing to basketball where a pitcher just has an off day and anyone can get beat.

I'm happy by the fight the team showed in the 2nd half. They could've easily gave up and lost by 30+.

One positive thing from tonight...it doesn't appear shooting will be any issue like we all thought it would be. If this game is any indication.

Defense wasn't great (did get a little better as the game went on)...though UL was even hitting contested shots.

Aberdeen may be the teams best player and not Oweh. How does Oweh still have that hitch in his shot?

I guess I just disagree. I don't see anything respectable about getting blown out by a UL team that doesn't have a talent advantage on us, after we broke the bank to go out and get veteran/tough "dawgs"...

It's not the end of the world, but it's a pretty bad look; giving up 96, after, like I said...

8 points is not a blow out. No surprise either this early in the season. The team hasn't had time to gel yet. Give it time. I can give many examples of great UK teams getting beat in November.

We also still don't have JQ. Sounds like he will be playing soon though.

UL may just be that good too. They paid for players just like everyone else does.

There is way more to it than an 8 point margin. We got worked...

I said it's not the end of the world, but let's own it.

And yes, UL paid players as well. About a third of what WE did. LOL

What a bad day. UK loses to the birds. My 16-year old furnace had a crack in the heat exchanger, filled my house with smoke and carbon monoxide. House full of really fine firemen and firewomen. Scared the hell out of my dog and wife with all the alarms going off. And to top it off, today is my 65th birthday. My birthday gift? A new Trane furnace.

"Let's go over a Pothole Pete's record: there were 85 near-misses in the Potomac before the DCA air crash. Pete did NOTHING. He spent $80 billion on DEI and on climate change."

"He lowered the standards for training at the FAA. He focused on pronouns at the FAA, changing those things, but never worked to fix the air traffic control system. Didn't work on bringing more air traffic controllers into the system."

"But the truth is, he BARELY showed up at the DOT. He was in Michigan and other places, but he was No-Show Pete. And now he wants to rewrite it so he can run for president. And he's going after me and President Trump. We're NOT going to take it."
