If we were to compare this game tonight to our football game as to our future it would be like the NCG for the season to me. It is do or die. If we win we move up but if we lose we look forward to next season all year. Retin will be leaving and I am just not sure what we have to look forward to next year. If anybody does i wish you would share with the rest of us. RTR!

We lost to UK 77-61 in T-Town & 78-53 at UK. Not very encouraging numbers for us, but we can still do it. First and foremost, if this becomes the Obasohan dribble & shoot show, we are doomed. We must get strong performances in scoring from at least 3 players and some good D around the basket by Taylor or Hall. We have several players who can hit 3's including, Norris, Coleman, Edwards, Obasohan, & Hale. Obasohan & Coleman did excellent in driving the ball to the basket against Ole Miss then kicking the ball out to an open man to shoot. We need more of that. The scary thing for us is how players who have a good game and totally disappear for the next 2 to 3 games. This is especially true of Norris & Coleman. If we can't shoot at least 70% FT's against UK, we will bury ourselves, plus we can't get a bunch of stupid fouls early and have Hall, Norris, Taylor, or Obasohan riding the pine for a lot of the game. Winning this game is a gigantic task but we can do it if we play a near perfect game, limit turnovers, fouls, and can hit some 3's. Pretty tall order for sure.

And we have to do a much better job of rebounding than we did in the previous 2 games to them. They killed us on the boards.

Expect the arena in Nashville to be packed with rabid UK fans.


KENTUCKY
23-8, 13-5 SEC
RPI  13
SOS 31
PPG 79.0  (Tide 67.1)
FG% 47.6 (Tide 42.8)

UK is the worst draw we could get. We have serious match issues with them. If they come out slow, we hit our three's and shoot 75% from the line we could do it. I certainly hope we can.

We have tickets and SEC hospitality passes to Saturday games. It would be a lot more fun if Alabama is on the floor. Beating UK would also put us back in the mix for an NCAA bid. Who knows... beat UK and we could win the whole thing.

This is the dream I have right now. It would be a fall down and shout win.  , RTR!

[Marshal Dillon]

In the first 3 minutes UK already has 5 offensive rebounds. 7-5 UK.

Absolute BS call with the offensive foul on Retin. He made the basket & should be shooting one for a 3 point play. Same ole bad officiating. 

[Marshal Dillon]

WTH is going on!? The refs have called off THREE baskets by Bama, including a 3 pointer.

And I'm done. The officiating is egregious. My blood pressure won't endure this BS. Just because they're Ky, they get all the calls. SMH!

Y'all have fun.

[Marshal Dillon]

Well, we are cooked because we're playing against the refs & UK.



 

[Marshal Dillon]

Refs just waved off another 3 pointer by Bama. That's 4 FG we have lost.

[Marshal Dillon]

Our guys are hustling like crazy but every time we get going the refs kill our momentum with a foul call or other type call. It's amazing.

Why don't CAJ make a fuss and stop it? RTR!
