UK vs Nicholls game thread

[Kats23]

Looks like Pope broke a foot off in someone’s hind parts at the half. Or he gave them stickers and ice cream.

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Well, if you like living life with your head in the sand...more power to you.

And now shots are falling. I guess we are giving more effort now.

 

[megablue]

Didn’t realize the color commentator was Ravi Moss

I never knew his first name was Ravioli !!

 

[bbncal02]

SCV.....Mother$&%*

OWEH!!!!!!

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Color lol the black dude

It's called a color commentator lol. He doesn't mean color as in black

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Solid. Oweh needs to play with more energy.

 

[I’m The Village Idiot]

Signs of life?

 

[BassProCat]

Now this is the fu$kin team I expected to see.

 

[bbncal02]

And now shots are falling. I guess we are giving more effort now.

We are. The energy is MUCH better. Pope climbed their *** I'm sure.

 

[FredmanthecatfanAnon]

Halftime speech. “Make your shots”

 

[Hoskins91_rivals]

This is the same team that wrecked Purdue? What's changed? Same players. If you are saying they are trash were you saying that during the Purdue game? If not, then you analysis is just based on one game performance. Calm down and let the adults talk.

So is yours…

 

[Artlaibesghost]

Look what happens when we open a half with an actual point guard

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Everyone feeling better? Lol

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

I know I'll get flamed for this..

But Nicolls was kenpom 167th last year. Middle of the road. A lot of the same roster returns, a lot of seniors. They beat LSU last year, lost to Maryland by like 7. Hung with MissSt.

I think were doing about what we should be doing to a team like this. Were doubling them up right now. Probably shouldnt expect a 40pt win, unless we are looking at the bottom 25% of the league, especially with some injuries, and its game 1.

Especially given the fact that and I could be wrong here but that predicted score on Kenpom, I don't think factors the loss of Lowe.

But having said all that I still think we win this by 30+

 

[The_Catfather]

The lackadaisical stuff, turnovers and whatnot will take care of itself. And Lowe returning will improve the halfcourt offense.

The only thing I'm even slightly alarmed about now is the 3-point shooting. That can be contagious both ways. Good to see a couple go down so far in the 2nd half. And thankfully Noah appears OK.

 

[Ky_Bred_Cat]

This team is playing so tight.

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Awww lol my bad

 

[megablue]

I’m not sure why our guys are so clumsy handling the ball tonight.

It may be a Rawlings … they have a different feel.

 

[bbncal02]

Everyone feeling better? Lol

A bit. Energy is better. You can ALWAYS play hard.

 

[ToniTonyToneDelkDelkDelk]

My account might just end up becoming a Collin Chandler fan account this season. Bro makes all the right plays.

 

[CrossPlainsCat]

So is yours…

No, I'm not providing analysis. I'm not saying we are great and I'm not saying we suck. I'm saying we are a team trying to gel.

 

[Wunky]

I think that has always been obvious, to be honest.

yeah he really motivated the cards against Creighton last year gtfo of here with this crap

 

[LexingtonThoroughblade]

Our last national title feels like a century ago

 

[BassProCat]

Horrible call

 

[Kentucky15]

This team will be really good. They just haven’t figured each other out yet, and we don’t have 2 of our starters. It’s just gonna take a little time. Kam is my worry. If that kid isn’t any count it’s a huge blow. I’m only really worried about that.

 

[bbncal02]

lol.....fall away ********

 

[phyrekat01]

Garrison just ball watching on that last Off Reb for Nicholls

 

[Kentucky15]

It's called a color commentator lol. He doesn't mean color as in black

why the color commentator gotta be black tho?

 

[bbncal02]

Horrible call

Been quite a few this game. This crew is awful.

I have zero doubts this will be a very good team once it's all said and done.

 

[phyrekat01]

Garrison isn't

That’s the one player I wanted to transfer out. I’m not a BG fan

Body language says it isn’t talent just in his head

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Garrison isn't

That might be a Garrison problem lol.

I think he had times last year like that too.

 

[kybassfan]

So November losses don't matter come Selection Sunday, right? They don't affect KenPom and analytical metrics that feed seeding, right?

Which loss are you referring?

 

[megablue]

Our last national title feels like a century ago

What is UFB is that UConn has 6 in the past 25 years, under 3 different coaches.
That’s pretty strong … when you stop and think about it !!

Kam seems like he’s pressing bad. Hopefully he’ll get to see a couple fall this game and build that confidence back some. We need him.

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Regardless if we have a great season or not I want to see more talent at Kentucky next year.

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

We don’t have a playmaker

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

I worry about turnovers with this team. Way more than the shooting.

We took good care of the ball last season.
