Those are the differences in Rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks
Understandable.
Does anyone else remember the last time Oscar and Kofi played head to head?
Oscar tuned him up.

Kofi who?
Going head to head again Oscar will beat Kofi down the floor 9 out of 10 times. Will 100% out work him, dominate on the boards and take Kofi out to 15_17 feet. Kofi is a great big man. Oscar is a guy putting up numbers no one has done in 40 years.
Lol at Johnny Davis above Kofi too.College basketball player of the year straw poll: Kentucky’s Oscar Tshiebwe leads Wisconsin’s Johnny Davis

You spelled 10 out of 10 wrong. Oscar even beats Wheeler down the floor most of the time.
Don't ban me for a meltdown if Oscar doesn't win it. I'll try and refrain.
Kind of kidding. Plenty of players could win it. It'll just be dissappointing to watch a guy with that much effort on and off the court and put up numbers, have basically all talking heads saying he should win it and he doesn't.
Do you all believe in good luck charms?
My wife is a good luck charm. so many times she gets home and boom, we go on a run. Yesterday, down by 12. Boom run. Can't argue with success.
I used to wear good luck hats. then found out only UK hats bought in Kentucky worked, then found out no hats worked.

Nate Oats and I still can't believe UK was missing their backcourt and only had 7 turnovers.
Pretty good stat....plus the win.

Well Nate Oats should believe it, because his defense sucks. I agree though, would've expected them to have at least 10 unforced TOs.
He really needs to work on is D. If they're going to jack up 30 threes a game, they can't completely rely on it to outscore teams. Maybe hire in a defensive coach like Donovan has a couple of times now.
They shot 40 yesterday. 😆 UK shot 14 and Bama only made 5 more. Pretty crazy considering Bama started 9-12 from 3.
You know shit's going your way when Brooks and Toppin both make a 3 in the same game. Bet the odds of that were +10,000,000.
That 9-12 was tough. I wanted to think, law of averages will work it's way out, but I never know.
Toppin summed it up in the post game
On what enabled the team to get back into the game late in the first half…
"This is Kentucky basketball. People come into our arena, we go to people's arenas, and the first five minutes of the game, everyone's hitting every shot because they're excited to play Kentucky. That's how it is all the time, and we already know. Coach always emphasizes staying the course, just keep grinding it out. And that's what we do. We kept running, we kept getting into their legs. And guess what? They stopped making shots late in that first half. So we just have to keep pushing through things, and know that basketball is a game of runs and that's what we did."
It was probably their best game plan though since UK was without their best 2 perimeter defenders (even though jacking 3s is always their game plan).
It's refreshing to see UK being able to guard the three, and not face packed in defenses due to lack of shooting.
*Sees flashbacks of 2010 Elite Eight game. PTSD kicks in.
I'm glad they didn't harp on it. They showed them sitting at the end of the bench several times. Had it been on ESPN they wouldn't have shut up about it.
I have this fear Big 10 posters is code for 10' uncut penis. Just a bunch of white dicks.
Can't believe I read through all of that. Thread had great potential, but one guy turned it to shit.
I was gonna add i dont think its a two horse race bc the kid at wisky has been dam impressive too, but maybe it still is a two horse race 😂College basketball player of the year straw poll: Kentucky’s Oscar Tshiebwe leads Wisconsin’s Johnny Davis

Two horse race and Kofi's still in his stall stuffing his face.
