UK vs. Buffalo

[RR30]

Buffalo seems to be straddling the line of confidence and arrogance pretty closely. Not a bad thing though. Should be an interesting game. They have the small guards that have given UK fits at times this year.

But those guards will have to try to stop Alexander from penetrating, not many have been able to do that.

Shai penetrates deep on whoever he wants.

btt

 

[Global Havok]

I'm nervous as hell.

 

[kycats4383]

Lotta fouls this far. Should post every single time

 

[RockThrillCock]

Buffalo can’t even get a shot off, even threes

 

[JimboBBN]

Love our defensive effort so far

 

[JimboBBN]

How does Knox miss wide open three after three

 

[coryfly]

Just way too big and long so far.

It's especially weird considering he hits contested 18 footers no problem.

 

[hawkeye bb n fb fan]

Buffalo has had a lot of wide open looks early but can't make anything

Exactly. Very strange

 

[Global Havok]

Good start, gotta sustain this effort.

 

[JimboBBN]

So far we are just way too big and fast for them. Let’s keep going to our strength

 

[HRTheCard]

4-16, 0-6 and they've had some wide open shots. Ballgame.

 

[VAWildcat15]

I don't care if we never take another three if we keep feasting inside like this.

The streak is dead, we never have to worry about it again.

 

[ExitFlagger]

Shocker, Buffalo is back to sucking...

 

[Global Havok]

Starting to find cracks in our defense.

SGA makes it look sooo easy.

1. It helps that they're playing a good team now.

2. 30 minutes left...

 

[uncfan in ky]

Knox going to drop 40 if they don’t find someone to guard him.

Never fails. Shot 15-30 from 3 vs AZ. 2-10 so far today. Happens every time. its why I said UK would roll. And why K-State will smash UMBC.

 

[VAWildcat15]

We hit a three! The Streak reborn!!!

 

[Rhavicc]

Shitty call against Knox there.

Yeah...as opposed to that team that had you guys pissing down your legs and cursing the committee.

Arizona didn't play anything that even resembled a defense. It should be no surprise that a team that averages like 86 points per game hit 15 threes against that sorry excuse of a defense.

Meh, I would say AZ wasn't a good team. They were. But UK hasn't has much to do with Buffalo missing a lot of open three's. Thing is, Buffalo is anaverage team that played waaaaaaaay over their heads vs AZ. Tobeat teams like AZ and a UK, they have to shoot like that. Today they are not. And well, its why UK is up 11.

Go troll somewhere else

 

[Global Havok]

Laughing I don't know about VA... but I definitely wasn't looking forward to Ayton. Thought we were better at the 4 other positions though. Also thought Ayton is good enough to possibly offset that though.

Rahv they've had at least 5-6 wide open looks today. Just haven't hit them. Why the sudden dissing of AZ? A week ago you guys were mad as hell that AZ was in your pod. But now they suddenly suck?

 

[uncfan in ky]

Shitty call against Knox there.

False, he fouled him but Buffalo got away with a push off on the rebound before that.

 

[kycats4383]

Game is far from over. We have miscommunicared on d 4-5 times and got lucky they missed. We keep that up, we lose

 

[IUfanBorden]

Backto the game....Love how Diallo is attacking. His jump shot should be option four or five.

 

[VAWildcat15]

It helps us that we're rated #4 against the three, whereas I believe Arizona is outside the top 200. Three point defense has been a strength all season.

Oh, I agree. But Buffalo has gotten a lot of clean looks. Have missed. Against AZ, they didn't. Starting to hit some now, which is why the lead suddenly dipped to 5. Kentucky is much, much better (defensively) than AZ. No doubt. And that certainly has and will play a role in Buffalo's shooting. But in fairness, they've missed a lot of open looks.

 

[JimboBBN]

One guy keeping them in the game. Just like last time.

 

[Rhavicc]

DIALLO!!

 

[JimboBBN]

Hami

 

[coryfly]

Can't believe they didn't T up Diallo there.
