Utah Valley U. @ Kentucky Game Thread.

This sucks.

[UK8STL11]

This is pathetic. Don’t care if they are young or it’s the first game. This is a joke

[Lighthouse]

That will quieten a crowd. And cause a TO. Did someone say young Freshmen?

[Joneslab]

Uh-oh.

Who's this Randolph guy? Comes in and makes us look like high schoolers.

[Lighthouse]

We're getting shots and playing hard, but the ball just won't go in.

[UK8STL11]

Cats down 9 at half. They may lose this game. Could start the season 0-3

[Blue Heaven]

Terrible effort and shot selection. Terrible defense as well.

[Joneslab]

Shades of Gardner-Webb.

Not a lot of toughness, particularly at the rim. Anytime we had a body on us we were bothered.

You see why Cal's been talking about conditioning. What he's clearly worried about is a lack of strength. Not a whole lot of men on this team. Maybe none.

[KCKUKFan]

Well, that wasn't... great.

We're getting shots and playing hard, but the ball just won't go in.

We might be getting shots, but we have no skill shooting. I liked the way Green looked early on, but we knew the cupboard was bare on shooting talent.

This team can't shoot very good anywhere.

This game shows why you need studs and veterans. UK has neither.

Watch tomorrow night when Duke plays. Would bet anything Bagley and Allen have big games.

They're much better shooters than they've shown.

They're nervous as hell. Utah Valley's got guys who are 24 years old. Just much tougher.

Our best shooter, Knox, and our second (maybe third) best shooter, Gabriel, could not hold on to the basketball. Reason? Terrified.

KY looks bad and playing terrible. But you have to give UVU and Mark Poope some credit. They are not playing scared. They are well coached and are taking advantage of KY when they can. They have some talent, not as much as KY of course. They also have experience. Mark Pope has this team ready to play. He has a good future as a coach ahead of him.

I still believe KY wins this game.

[Catsrock]

Shots not falling but don't see anything looking smooth with SGA at point so far. Thinking Quade starts 2nd half and see what happens.

First game jitters to the third degree so far!!!!
