Kentucky versus Ohio State: Game thread

[Westtncat]

The only thing that makes me feel better is, these dont really count. Last year was great but I want a banner. Still possible.

game over. heckuva comeback though. Gives me a lot of hope for the future. Not a final four team.....but as much hustle as I've seen in a time. Sure can appreciate that. Too big a hole the kids dug themselves into to get out.

[Wonderstruck]

Game over I'm guessing. Murray probably should have been shooting every time the last 5 minutes.

They are just stronger and can hit FTs.

Valiant effort I guess but we should not need it against a bad OSU team.

UGH.....I would love to see the 5 teams Ohio state lost too

Looking ahead a bit too much perhaps.

Need to bring it every game for 40 minutes.

Ohio St lost to Tx Arlington and La Tech as well as by 20 to a average UConn team.

Time (if you haven't already) to drastically change your expectations of this team.

After they lose to UL and at LSU on Jan 5, I think Uk falls out of the top 25.

Just way too many issues with too many guys.

I wonder if the tOSU fans will complain and say how awful it is that:
A) they were out scored in the 2nd half
B) they gave up a huge lead
C) they let some freshmen score 31 points against them

(Sorry, couldn't find my sarcasm/eye rolling emoticon)

This team will lose a lot more. More than folks want to believe. There is no magic light switch for this group. They lack the talent, IMO., regardless of recruiting rankings.

Need to play Skal 40 minutes. In fact, he should get 15 extra minutes per 40 minute game, because he's a factory of basketball production and more time means more product.

I dont think UK fans have complained unreasonably this year. They are not a good team so I doubt they did. When you have the top ranked class in the nation its a little different.

[Wonderstruck]

Sarcasm is the best.

We just couldn't get the loose ball or rebound when it mattered most. Until we have toughness and rebounding down low we are not a contender. There may not be anybody on the team that can give us that at this point....

Wynyard and Humpries are the only ones that fit that mold....and Cal won't play them.

[Westtncat]

People you can disagree with me if you want but with Skal in the game its 4 on 5. Say what you want , call me a hater but its true. He does nothing. Not mad at him, not trying to hate on him but hes not that good. Maybe just needs more time. We have two guys on the bench that are 260lbs a piece. Give up the loyalty to the ranking and play the players.
