Game Thread: Providence vs. Kentucky

[Lighthouse]

I'm concerned about Oscar and officials who haven't seen him. He's so strong and gets away with a lot in the SEC. Our Cats need their A Game tonight and for a week or two. GO CATS!!!

A guy named Ed Croswell plays center for them. He's built a lot like Oscar, which is usually (not always) a good thing. Oscar struggles more against length and agility. Croswell is sort of a low-to-the-ground, bruising player.

There's no question though that they'll try to make the game "physical" to get Oscar to the bench.

They desperately need to win this game for the sake of the program and fans. Last year was so disappointing

absolutely Cathy...a year ago today we lost to you know who

[Ratt]

Very excited and fired up for tonight. Still don’t really have any big expectations but I’m hoping we get the good version of this team for at least a few games.

Been talked about a million times my 16 years here but man I wish Rick would have made a complete career at Kentucky. It never mattered how many 5 stars we had on the team, I always felt like we had a chance to beat anybody anywhere anytime, except that 93 Michigan team 😆 🤣

Just read this on social media, not my words.. Win or lose, we have one more year of Calipari with the incoming class in my opinion...

I've seldom been accused of hyperbole but tonight's NCAA game at 7:10 against Providence (CBS) is without question the single most important matchup in the long and storied career of Coach John Calipari. It is a must win. True, he enjoys a lifelong contract with Kentucky, but a loss would place a tremendous amount of pressure on him to resign. It is as simple as that. Best of luck to John, a gentleman with a heart of gold, and GO CATS!

Going to start some coffee here in a few minutes and just enjoy the evening, hope they make us proud tonight, there is no other team in the world I could ever imagine rooting for...

Regrettably, I do not believe our "One & Done" roster shares our passion for the program.

[KentuckyWild2020]

It's go time, going to zoom in enjoy the game and stay off the phone and social media, just hope it's not the last game of the season,need this one for many reasons...

Guess I should share this nonsense here. Inexcusable for the NCAA to not have a backup goal
