***Sweet Sixteen/Elite Eight Thread***

We can't rebound. Get a good stop and then they get an easy layup off the offensive rebound. Wasted effort on defense.
 
Kentucky seems to stop UT a few times, then cut it to 13, and then the next possession let them score. This next four minutes is probably their chance to really make a push IMO.

Can't rebound, it'd be single digits if they could. UT is a really good team but hard to beat them if you can't do the little things right.
 
Never understood why late in games when ahead and the other team is pressing teams wait and slowplay it once the other team scores. Get it and get it in quick before they can get set.

Yeah, rebounding and some bad breaks as well. UT has made some really tough shots when UK had a chance at some momentum.
 
Nothing there. Should be a no call. Just two guys playing each other physical. Double anythings are super dumb.
 
I agree. I really like Pope.
Pope will only get better. This is a helluva showing out the gate.

I do too, but I don't necessarily buy into the it'll only go up from here. Look at South Carolina this year. The SEC isn't getting worse, if anything more coaches are being upgrade so it's gonna be a bear for some time. It can turn ugly in a hurry.

Our issue is separate because it comes down to financial support for our program, especially through NIL. That will never be a problem for you guys.

First game all year UK just looked like they was never in it. Credit Tennessee for the hard nosed defense that never allowed us to really be in the game.

Great first year for Pope. No complaints from me at all. Hate to lose to an SEC rival but since you sum bitches beat us you might as well go make a Final Four and win the damn thing! Good luck the rest of the way Vols. Kiss my ass @della 🤣😘
 
Local radio has talked some about how both the UT and UK teams are hard to hate. Likeable kids and coaches. The fanbases seem to dislike each other a little less this year.

This Auburn/Michigan game is tough to watch. Neither team can consistently take advantage of the other team's mistakes. And they are making a lot of mistakes.
 
Michigan lost their chance to win this game. IMO. Still plenty of time, but you can't let Auburn play with confidence, and they are very confident.
 
Watching these 2 games it seems like the big 10 programs just try to get fouled... That's their offensive focus.
