Running UK Game Thread: SEC Tournament

[lurkeraspect84]

You sure your old lady didn't just fall off the bed?

that was actually it, When she rolls over, either way she falls off the bed.

I wouldn't trade for 10 more just like her.

Yeah my anxiety isn't going to let me sleep tonight either. Tornados scare the shit out of me, especially since I have absolutely nowhere in my house that would protect me. Supposed to hit here in about an hour or so. I'm going to have Ryan Hall Yalls YouTube live feed pulled up and hope for the best.

I hate the weather has you worried. I'll pray that you come thru the storms untouched.

We're now under a tornado watch. Wife and I both have PTSD from the last one. I'm staying up all night apparently.

I never saw a tornado until we moved here and have seen 3 so far. One really up close. Too close for comfort. So close, I think we were in the middle of it.

I'll never forget the first one though, it was March when we moved here and lived with the inlaws for a bit.

Sirens was going off and she with her family went to seek shelter, but I stayed back because UK was playing. It got close enough where I took the cot I was sleeping on (her family didn't approve of us sleeping in the same room due to not being married then) and used it to cover up in the bathtub.

2nd one I was at Walmart, and they decided to lock the front doors. People inside were trying to get out b/c family in cars, and ppl outside were trying to get in. They broke the sliding doors down.

Last one is documented on page 677 in the nonsense thread.

Sounds like you married Helen Hunt.

 

[kyjeff1]

Y'all are like family to me.....meaning I won't sleep with any of you.

It’s not the sleeping part we're worried about.

 

[winin11]

Yeah, take Sears snd Philon off the court and get back to me.

Just an excuse Jeff, you lost by 29 points

 

[mcnicKY91]

Just an excuse Jeff, you lost by 29 points

And a high probability UK beats Bama by 29 points if UK has their top three backcourt players while Bama is missing their top three backcourt players.

 

[Bert Higginbotha]

@Bert Higginbotha we play Clemson tonight so we know yall are better than them, right?

Now UL has played 6 ranked teams (ranked at the time you played them). Wow!

 

[kyjeff1]

Just an excuse Jeff, you lost by 29 points

Not en excuse, just saying UK is down to their 4th pg, who is a guy that has no business playing against SEC competition.

If UK was at full strength, I still don't think they beat Bama, you guys just have weapons we can't defend.

This.
Sears and Philon are critical pieces for Bama, take them off the court and you just cut Bama's legs off.

Without Butler, UK is a shell.of itself. Butler is a massive loss for UK. We just aren't deep enough to sustain losing him on top of losing Robinson and KK.

I literally said UK wouldn’t beat them even at full strength.

Doesn't change the fact of you also making excuses. Maybe, you should rephrase them to justifiable excuses.

 

[kyjeff1]

Here we go again. Yup, you are definitely a woman.

I was not making an excuse, just said we didn't have the pieces to compete with them, it's that simple.

 

[winin11]

You didn’t have those players when we beat KY at Rupp early in the regular season?

You are definitely a man. You have hard time when corrected. Just take the "L' and move on. I'm only trying to help you.

There is no L to take, no excuses were made, we got drubbed, we didn't have the weaponry to compete with Bama, that’s not an excuse, that is a fact.

 

[mcnicKY91]

UK did.

But you must have missed the part of my post where I said UK would beat Bama as well by 29 points if UK had their entire backcourt coupled with Bama having their top three backcourt players out.

I'm glad to see you finally have come to see it my way.

 

[coryfly]

This is a very entertaining game. Final Four here will be tough to beat for the NCAAT.

 

[winin11]

Sounds a lot like a coulda shouda woulda type scenario

 

[kyjeff1]

I was wrong, I am a woman and I lose my mind sometimes.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

 

[jhmossy]

No way Auburn wins it all. I’ll do a permaban bet with @AuHoosier420 but I know his bitch ass won’t hold up his end of the deal when he loses

Something seems broken with them. They are nowhere close to the well oiled machine they were a month ago.

He'll have a gang of excuses and will say the tourney should be a 2/3 format.

 

[Scotty00]

No way Tennessee blows this, right???

 

[coryfly]

Tennessee can always let teams back in because any Barnes team has the potential to not score for such long periods of time.

 

[jhmossy]

@AuHoosier420 can thank for me the reverse jinx. I just want him to win something this year because it won’t be a natty

 

[UL_1986]

They very well could. Auburn storming back.

 

[UL_1986]

Was thinking the same thing. When they’re on they’re on though. Those droughts seem to happen more often than not. Their defense will always keep them in every game, but they gotta find a way to create offense and score.

It is why he has always sucked in the dance. Offense stalls and they lose.

Any team Barnes coaches are going to be offensively challenged.

 

[jhmossy]

Good lord Auburn getting the Duke treatment right now lol

 

[coryfly]

Not sure how you miss the foul that knocked Okpara down, and then call him for that nothing foul on Broome.

 

[AWilli6995]

Bad call on that Tennessee player.

 

[coryfly]

Hit Johnson's hand pretty clearly, no?

 

[jhmossy]

lol dude bricks two FTs with game on the line. No way this guy deserves POY.

 

[coryfly]

Auburn just makes their FTs and they win this game.

 

[ExitFlagger]

His Texas teams were usually good offensively.

 

[coryfly]

That is just awful execution from UT. That is the one place you can't throw it to and teams continually do it. Plus, as soon as you catch it you have to move.

 

[AWilli6995]

His days at Clemson and currently at UT, they at times struggle to score the ball.
