16thBBall Fan Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Final. It was a win that's about all you can say. Cats got to play better and get more from Washington and Knox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlow Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Cats shoot 32% from the field, hold their own on the boards while getting manhandled in the paint by GROWN MEN and win. Thank goodness Georgia dont match up well with the UK guards. Go Cats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcjkbt Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 UK was hunting shots the first half but improved some the second. All in all a nice conference win, especially after right after the UL beatdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamprat Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Wasn't pretty, but the Cats showed some grit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gold sunrise Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I pick out a favorite player every year. Last year it was Gabriel, he still is one of my favorites. This year I picked out Alexander . Both had huge games tonight. I love the energy that both of them bring to the team. They just grinned it out and got the win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDEaston Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Ugly win but I'll take it. As @Wireman mentioned this game had "trap" written all over it. A NYE game two days after destroying UL, I"ll take the win. I wouldn't look to much into the Cat's performance in this one against a 9 win UGA team.

16thBBall Fan Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 Not sure with being there in person but I'm not sure that Richards ever got back in the game after picking up those two early fouls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawildcat Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Not sure with being there in person but I'm not sure that Richards ever got back in the game after picking up those two early fouls. He did get back briefly in the 2nd half but disappeared the rest of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawildcat Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Rupp did a great job tonight making noise and cheering on their Cats! Loved the energy! Great win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamprat Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 How many points did Diallo have? In the second half, every time I looked he was scoring and wondering why he didn't play more. I missed the first 5 minutes of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrambler Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Especially this season, with the SEC so improved ..any conference win is a good win. This one gave the U.K. freshmen their first taste of conference play and how intense that can be. My "hard work guy", Gabriel came up with 10 rebounds. I like him bc he does the "grunt work" that few notice but it wins games. G-Alexander, like in the U.L. game, came up big with his 21 pts (12-13 ft).. U.K. won this one at the FT line, shooting 71 % (27-38). FG shooting has to improve and imo it will. L.S.U. up on Wednesday night, in Baton Rouge so this team of Freshmen will get their taste of another first ...an SEC road game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlow Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Going to get a good taste of life on the road in the SEC. 4 of the next 5 are all road games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Parker Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Didn't play great but won a very physical game. SGA was superb tonight on both sides of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJAlltheWay24 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Alexander is becoming someone I trust with the ball in his hands. Seems to be making a lot of great decisions, attacking well and hitting his FTs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
