March 14, 20215 yr Final tough loss for Western. This makes the 3rd straight year they have lost in the finals. Tough loss lead by 5 with a minute to play McKinght at the line for a bonus missed then a turnovers by Hollingsworth and Rawls in regulation.
March 14, 20215 yr McKnight became a freshman for a moment in missing that front end. Unfortunate, but he had a great season. What I’m incredulous about is that Josh Anderson tried to throw the ball off North Texas when he got trapped after that rebound late. Tie game, THREE timeouts, and he tries that, turning it over and setting up the game winner. I could not believe it. And frankly, the execution at the end of regulation and that game tying attempt was atrocious.

And frankly, the execution at the end of regulation and that game tying attempt was atrocious. I agree I hated for them. That charge call un Anderson was horrible I thought as well. I did enjoy watching them through the tournament with all of the Kentucky kids playing. I don't see any way they get a at large bid even with their win over Alabama on the road they had 3 bad Quad 3 losses. Should get a NIT bid however I hope.
March 14, 20215 yr Starting the game down 17-0 didn't help. But WKU fought back to take (if memory serves) a 6-point lead with about 3 minutes left. Then they got a little loose and let NT back in. Missed the front ends of 2 straight one-and-ones and Carson Williams missed 2 easy layups . Looks like the only representatives from Kentucky in the NCAA will be Morehead and (hopefully) Louisville.
