I think GrantNKY is selling Houston short. I knew UK had a fight on their hands and wouldn’t have been shocked if they had lost.

That was an extremely good team. Good enough to win 33 games this year, LSU included in their W’s. Some of your posts makes them sound on about the same level as Ball State.

Correct. He’s acting like neither they or Wofford were any good. Houston was the #9 overall team in the tournament. Shocking they would play a tight game against the #7 team.

UK was down with less than 2 minutes to play to Houston. Houston is a good team. I’m not selling them short. UK when they play like they are capable, should knock off Houston easily. They shouldn’t have had to sweat that game last night.

Sorry for expecting more out of the Cats than you do. I won’t aplogize for having high expectations.

Torn ACL for Okeke.

I understand close games are going to happen. But it’s obvious to me watching these last 2 games that UK is vastly superior at every position than Wofford and Houston. But despite that they struggled to develop any semblance of an offense for large portions of both games. I’m not going to act like this is something to ignore simply because they played great defense. Against Auburn great defense isn’t going to be enough. Auburn is going to get theirs and UK is going to have to play a complete game which they haven’t done these past 2 games.

Because Auburn is playing at an entirely different level right now than they were either of the two times UK played them. Is that not obvious to you as well? What am I missing here? Auburn is playing the best basketball in the country right now based on what I’ve seen since the conference tourneys started.

 

Wasn’t Auburn ranked in the Top 10 when the Cats won at Auburn? Tigers scored 80 and Cats 82 in that one.

Actually 3 points just over a minute.

Is shooting 47.8% against the top defense in NCAA FG % wise that big of a disappointment?

I would call them unrealistic expectations.

So being the #7 overall and beating the overall #9 by any amount is a good game. Especially a #9 ranked as higher as they were on the defensive side.

How should Duke fans feel after their last 2 games?

Absolutely mortified. If I was a Duke fan I would be spewing the same stuff right now as I am about UK. Wofford and Houston are better than UCF and VT. No doubt about it Duke is playing crappy basketball right now.

Scoring 62 points with the talent UK has is 100% a disappointment.

Again I don’t concern myself with where teams are ranked. I get Houston is good. UK should have championship aspirations.
