***UK vs MSU OFFICIAL GAME THREAD***

Sestina is playing well out there

 

[richbrookstomato]

MSU isn't going to have anyone left to play in the 2nd half. These fouls are crazy.

 

[ZaytovenCat]

We're unbeatable if Montgomery and and Richards can finish those little hooks. IF. Defensive intensity looks OUTSTANDING. For it to be that good in game one is amazing. This team wants it.

Agree but that’s looking like a major IF.

 

[oldsports_]

Virginia had no big men last year worth anything

Hush

 

[somethingalways1]

Cessna!

 

[ala_kat2]

Physical game inside. Maybe we can wear them down.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

27-23 UK with 3:40 in 1st half

MSU>Winston>11
UK>Maxey/Hagans>7 each

 

[ganner918_rivals60369]

We only have 2 assists. That's bad offense. Glad we're playing tough D and drawing tons of fouls.

Other than bad post defense, pretty solid. Very active.

 

[ubtrapper_rivals103836]

I'm loving what I'm seeing so far. Our energy is awesome!

 

[Lukasz0brzut]

Why in TF does Montgomery think he’s a jump shooter?

he has to be able to shoot that or he and Richards cannot be on floor together

[somethingalways1]

37 fouls in the first game. 21 right now for this game.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Back when Vitale had hair

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Cats looking good considering first game. Keep it up

 

[JesusCal91]

Virginia's best big man last year was jack salt who was a volleyball player fun fact

 

[shaolin style]

Nick and EJ combined 8 FG attempts... Nate and Maxey combined 4. This is not a recipe for success.

 

[NoahColeLiam2024!]

Hagan’s is the heartbeat of this team. You can tell it already. We look completely different when he isn’t running the team.

 

[wildcatwelder_rivals]

It's obvious, at least to me, Sestina will be our go to big for paint points; EJ and Nick are our two bigs who need to do what they do best: rebound and defend the basket.

Guys and gals, I'm telling you, regardless of the outcome of this game, UK WILL be in the FF this year, our guards and wings are ELITE and will carry us to the promised land.

BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[JesusCal91]

Good God vitale looks half dead

Yes but a little slow on D.

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Anyone see the PUke nerds behind the announcers

 

[ganner918_rivals60369]

Dick Vitale looks awful. He's gonna announce til he has a heart attack in the middle of a game.

 

[kybassfan]

Dookie V had hair? Who knew.

 

[numberonedad]

Anyone can shoot it, making it is the problem

Just less than half.

 

[jameslee32]

IQ for 3!!!

 

[JesusCal91]

Quickley looks like kemba walker out there

 

[HenryMuto]

Yet he makes that one wow

 

[KentuckyStout]

QUICKLY

 

[bbnkat02]

Lol. Glad to be on the other end of that sometimes. Lol.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

IQ for 3 with 2 on the shot clock. Thats your go to shooter in my opinion

 

[JesusCal91]

Hagans you are not a jump shooter jfc

 

[ukfan041]

Quick is looking good too

 

[BoulderCat_rivals187983]

he has to be able to shoot that or he and Richards cannot be on floor together

22 fouls with 4 mins to go.

In the first half.

 

[ZaytovenCat]

Damnit Hagans had Maxey open for 3 on the pass back but nope, he had to shoot it.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Dang. No problem with Hagans taking that shot, but you gotta hit it if you do

 

[bbnkat02]

Get a rhythm going. Tweet.

geez.
