    Defense was about as bad as it’s been all year. And that’s saying something.

    And Auburn hypnotized us into thinking we were a three-point shooting team.

    Bad mix.

    Really disappointed in Toppin. Regressed big time. Super soft player in that game.

    But that’s the perfect game for a zone. When you absolutely refuse to play one then you get stuff like tonight.

      Complete disaster tonight. Lost double bye in sec tournament. Quad 3 home loss, etc ..

      And if Cason is out for the rest of the yr season is over anyway. I don't think he will be, but now you're back in 8-10 seed territory for the tournament because you'll have at least 2 more losses going into it. No way they win at Arkansas Saturday, without Cason.

      It's unreal how every season since 2018 has ended with injuries/drama nonsense and with general disarray.

        This is who we are this year... there's no sense in being upset about it. We is who we is.

        Now we await word on Wallace. If he is out long term, losing tonight doesn't matter anyway.
        The win streak, sweeps, and Auburn blowout had me feeling optimistic. I knew better, but such is fandom, I suppose.

          And what’s the deal with Kentucky players’ ankles?

          Seriously.

            This the type of team you can't pat them on the back or tell them they are good because if you do, it goes straight to the head and they forget how to play basketball.....

              Looks like they may not fall further than the 4 seed after all, but whatever. I have no confidence this team will make a run in either tournament.

                  Last 1:45 minutes in first half lost this game. CATS should have been up at half. UK deserves a double digit seed. Just too inconsistent.

                    That and free throws and Reeves being ice cold. Basketball is still about putting the ball in the basket.

                      Losing to Vandy at home for the first time in what, 16 years. Another 10 loss season for Cal, his 5th I believe. I Remember many saying we needed 1 more guard in the portal before the season started to feel good about this roster. Those guys were prophets. Finally other than a brief spurt in Seco d half I beli3ve that was worst defense we have played all year. I really can't wait for Cal and his " culture" to be gone

                        I didn't get to watch it (at work this week) but kept up with the score some.

                        In short...

                        Hope Wallace can return to action at least by the SEC tournament.

                          Cal skips out on another post game show. I guess he adheres to the philosophy that if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

                            This from Oscar on Wallace:
                            Oscar Tshiebwe on Cason Wallace: “Yes, I went and checked on him a little bit. I went and checked on him with the trainer. He should be good, I am supposed to not give that much information.”

                              There were several plays that were cringe-worthy but the one that sticks out in my mind is when we finally grabbed the 1-point lead and Jacob Toppin allowed Jordan Wright to drive right-handed on a straight line to the basket.

                              We let Vandy get the paint all night.

                                Every time Calipari brags and takes shots at the fans with his subliminal talk he shoots himself in the foot, just leave it alone and play ball...
