***********UK vs KU********** game thread

[zannmann]

come on Cal, put Briscoe on Seldon.

 

[oldsports_]

Can Murray guard anyone? He let Selden have baseline.................

 

[zannmann]

Come on Poy, you gotta throw the ball back out when three guys are guarding you.

 

[jameslee32]

Bad foul by Murray. They had the board.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

how is that off us

 

[RoyKent]

just taking absolutely terrible shots right now.

 

[hotelblue]

epsn seems to think we owe ku a win for blowing them out last year. strange.

 

[ukfan041]

Little stagnant! Hopefully this break helps us

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

ugly shots lately

 

[caneintally]

Well a bunch of nonsense the last 2 minutes but the score stays the same LOL . Come on play with precision .

 

[zannmann]

Man still 12 minutes to go, this game is taking forever.

 

[ZakkW]

How'd KU get in the damn bonus so quick? What's the point spread?

 

[Stenchymouse]

Playing hard but the wrong guys are taking the shots right now.

 

[caneintally]

Willis needs to sop being a sissy

That sissy has gotten our last 2 boards. He is many things but sissy is not one of them.

Last two possessions, guards fail to take Ellis and Brag to the basket, Poythress shoots a wild one over a double team with Murray wide open in the corner. Gotta play smart!!!

 

[Rem08]

This is the point at which we really could have opened up a bigger lead. If it weren't for Kansas struggling as well we'd be down.

 

[zannmann]

Ulis hasn't taken a shot in forever, except the three he had to throw with shot clock running out.

 

[OldRed]

Definitely need to have some poise now. Not playing smart on offense right now.

You would think losing in the National Championship would be a more devastating loss, considering they "ran out of time" to beat us.

IMO Murray has a huge tendency to over-defend. He needs to understand that you can play great defense by just keeping your man in front of you and cutting off his drives to that basket. He doesn't need to step into his man to get the steal or to close the distance. When he does that he loses a step and gives up the lane or the baseline. Then it puts the whole defense in jeopardy.

 

[RoyKent]

Rough couple of minutes.

Need to settle down and get a basket here

 

[Bell Cat 70]

Need to get back to driving the ball and finishing.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

KU is doing a better job at stopping our penetration and since we don't have threats in the frontcourt, we are being forced to take bad shots.

 

[FlCATFan_rivals26961]

Very disappointed by Murray so far. 8 points but 3 turnovers and some really poor D.

 

[Kycatspaws]

UK has suddenly gone cold from the floor. Just 2 for its last 10. That said, still shooting 53.8 percent.

 

[Bkocats]

geez

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Seldon turned into Steph Curry.

 

[RoyKent]

Why the hell are they sagging so far off Selden???

Come the f on

 

[HenryMuto]

Every damn time we get up 5 or 6 points we give up a 3 or a score. Can't get a stop after scoring.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

basically one player keeping them in the game

 

[zannmann]

Great drive by Briscoe, that is his bread and butter.

 

[Kycatspaws]

Goaltending.

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Seldon is gonna beat us by himself.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Somebody guard him!

 

[UKWildcats#8]

KU raining 3's now. They can shoot them.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

******* ********

every time, every game there's one guy

 

[RoyKent]

Great defense - you are going to let Selden beat you.

This is ridiculous

 

[hotelblue]

seldon's been hard to stop tonight.

 

[Bkocats]

we need to start hitting some threes
