Ole Miss vs KENTUCKY Game Thread

[thughes]

He went in on defense in the first half

He played 1 minute. I missed it. Still wonder why he only played 1 minute.

@BDawsonRivals: Kennedy says if you knew Kentucky would hit 11 threes and make more FTs than Ole Miss attempted you’d think Rebels would lose by “about 25."

UK was -23 (MINUS TWENTY THREE) with Ulis on the court

Cal didn't do him any favors by sticking him on the ball. That's what Ole Miss wanted. They were doing some things tonight that I never thought I'd see. They were doing some stuff that we saw last year with Julius Randle: getting Ulis to switch and then getting him out on an island. It was crazy. Never in a million years thought I'd see some of the stuff that happened in that game tonight.

Cal told him to go in and get rebounds and he did not. Pulled him.

What's Dakari been up to lately? Can't be basketball.

Kennedy coached his butt off. The team played their butt off and if Moody stays in the game UK might just lose. Glad to get out of that game with the W. Now regroup and kill the Aggies.

He hs easily been the biggest disappointment for me this year. Does nothing really well, has hands of stone, and NO offensive game at all.

Just not any better from last year.

Dakari made the biggest shot of the game.

So many things in that game were just flukish.

Guy banks a floater in like Sean Woods. Andrew tries to grab a loose ball and the guy rolls so that Andrew fouls him. Crazy dead corner fadeaway threes.

Ole Miss got the killer break when not-Anthony Hickey got hurt, but man they got some luck too.

Cal said in his post game show on the radio that Ole Miss wins if he is in the game.

Ole Miss really exposed Ulis. It had to happen........somebody taking advantage of Tyler's size. No way Tyler can stay with an all-conference type guard like Jarvis Summers. He can handle the average guard OK but he's going to have problems in the half court with the top guards who are bigger and more experienced. Tyler is a great point guard but Cal is going to have to find a way to help him on defense against really good bigger guards.

Both Harrisons had solid games tonight so maybe the bad-mouthing about them will stop.

How big was the Andrew three in overtime?

Andrew was great in that game. Great. Aaron was just as good.

Had some other guys who really got exposed. WCS was awful for 41 minutes, then had a great last 4:00 of overtime. Towns played scared. Dakari all of a sudden can't score on the block for some reason.

None of the three seemed to fight for much of anything under the basket. Instead, they settled for dinky five-footers over, and over, and over again, no matter how many times they couldn't get those shots to drop. Not sure why they didn't keep on trying to bang around the rim.

I haven't seen a game all year when we looked so helpless trying to rebound.

[Lighthouse]

Any officials EVER do a bad job? These guys were bad tonight, no other way to justify some of the nonsense calls they made.

IF they do a bad job, I report it, If you think they were that bad, have fun.

[Ratt]

Officials --- I didn't think they did a bad job. There were a few calls here and there that I thought was bad but nothing that really had a huge impact on the game. The 2 biggest mistakes I saw was the phantom call on Ulis and the BS jump ball in overtime - the ref screwed that up big time.

Harrisons - Aaron knocked down some good shots tonight and had a good game. Andrew played better but not great. He shot just 2-7 but did limit his turnovers. However, he was constantly chasing his guy on defense.
