Kansas and Kentucky are really shitting on Dukes strength of schedule rankings.
Running UK Game Thread: 2/4 Ole Miss
- Thread starter Brushy Bill
- Start date
He would've been huge this game. Wagner has gotten into the paint at will.
They aren’t good. UK is still a very very dangerous team. Just hoping Cal doesn’t put his nuts on center court when he leaves.
Lol. Yeah he was great against AU lmao
Any chance the boos gave the former UK players and coaches extra motivation?
Wish I could say I’m surprised but I told my dad early today I had a feeling this shit would happen. Wildest year in college basketball I’ve ever seen. Arkansas will either start a run with this win or lose out!!! Congrats to Cal and the three guys that followed him. Wish we could’ve kept AT. He’s tough.
Congrats to Arky fans and Cal. I didn't make any predictions on this game, definitely felt uneasy going into it.
Three takeaways:
-This shows how talented Arky is. The fact that they are 2-6 in the SEC is a joke. If they would play with this much effort and desire each game, along with the talent they have, they would be in a much better place.
-Pope needs to learn how to teach defense. This constant going under screens has to stop. Just terrible defensive coaching at this point.
-UK needs a PG. Hopefully Butler comes back in the next week, but they are hurting not even having a backup PG to play. Gotta get him back.

This teams defense is limited because, quit frankly, they aren't athletic. Without Butler putting pressure on the opposing teams PG then it's too easy to get Kentucky into bad rotation.
Chandler got 17 minutes tonight, Perry got 8. Kind of surprised Noah didn't play at all. At least he puts in effort and is a smart player.
Nope.
Yeah, I don't understand Pope sometimes. Every other game we play like ass. I'm not sure about Pope after this.
I think UK has the worst defense in all the major conferences. That’s pretty bad and that defense looked pretty damn bad tonight.
How do you give up 90 to Arkansas?
Speaking of UK, Anthony Davis just got traded for Luka Doncic for some weird reason.
Perry is overmatched but Chandler was fighting thru screens and getting chest to chest with guys.
Does not sound like Butler is going to be back anytime soon, if at all. Promising season down the shitter if that's true. They've had some nice wins without him but when both of your PGs are out it's going to be a TKO in the long run.
Koren Johnson had a very similar shoulder issue, he tried to play the first few games but ended up having to have surgery.
One question about Pope’s decision to not foul with a minute left. I know that Kentucky was down 10, but Arkansas would’ve had 3 one and ones they would have to convert. Why would he decide to let them run the clock and not foul? Was he worried about the point spread for the metrics?
