RedEyedGhost Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 In Calipari's 5 years at Kentucky, UofL has won 1 game. It was Pitino's best team... Over UK's worst team... By 3 points...

Rhom Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Volume shooting is never pretty, but a win is a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jace, Extat Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 If your points match or exceed your shots, that's not a bad day, it means you're shooting close to 50%. Which, again, is not bad. Granted, free throws drive up your points but don't effect your average from the field, but even shooting above 40% from the field is acceptable.

Ded As Ned Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Great win Cats!! S-E-C! S-E...yeah. :P I stand corrected from my previous statement(s), perhaps this group of kids can indeed figure out how to play as men. When Randle went out with cramps, I thought we were done for sure, but they stepped up. The guard stats weren't pretty for sure, but a win is a win is a win. WCS needs to figure out how to score on offense, but his defense will continue to give him minutes and I'll take it. I was particularly amused how Ricky P. refused to do the typical press conference afterward, instead telling reporters to meet him outside the locker room if they wanted to interview him. Then on UofL radio whined about the "home court" refs (who called the final 4 last year and had called this game the last few years as well).

Rhom Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Reports are out there that Chane Behannan has been dismissed from the UofL basketball team... again. I would have to presume that this time its an actual thing, otherwise they wouldn't be doing it in the middle of the season. If he's really out, that drastically hurts this team. They were exposed this weekend as being very weak in the middle as it was; without him there's really not much there to speak of. :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrim Fox Cauthon Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 I went to the UNC/UNC-Wilmington game. (Merry Christmas to me!) Since it was UNC 84 to UNCW 51, it was something of a sleeper game, though the dunks were fun to watch. With this win though, we apparently have become one of three programs, alongside Kentucky and Kansas, to have 2100 wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this win though, we apparently have become one of three programs, alongside Kentucky and Kansas, to have 2100 wins. UNC does have the highest average wins per season - prior to this season being completed - at 20.29. Duke looks like it will need another 3ish years before they hit the 2100 mark. In womens hoops - weird statistical anomaly. The top 3 programs by winning % all are at .818. TN, La Tech & CT even though the number of years of play vary greatly. Wins per season is crazy too - Tn is 20.18, La Tech is 26.76 and CT is 27.66. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fez Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 George Washington rebounded from a disappointing 72-55 loss at Kansas State by beating Georgia by the nearly identical 73-55 at home. Of course, KSU is quite a bit better than UGA, so the win doesn't really make up for the loss; but its still always nice to beat a major conference school. And they are now 12-2 heading into conference play, and with the A-10 still looking pretty strong even after losing Butler, Xavier, and Temple, I think a strong showing should ensure an NCAA tournament berth.

Hope y'all get a win. :) I am not going to Ole Miss/Dayton tonight but it's a big game for our RPI status...we won't get many chances to improve it in SEC play, and of course there will be lots of landmines with sub-100 (or 200? :blushing: ) conference opponents.

Yeah, that's why I was so concerned about the UofL game. Outside of Florida and Mizzou (and UK for the other schools) there's not a great chance to boost your tourney resume in conference. I honestly don't understand how the conference has fallen so far and stayed down. I know the SEC has never been as top strong as the ACC or as deep as the old Big East, but there was a time when you knew they'd get at least 4-5 teams into the tourney no questions asked. Now you really do have to wonder if we can get more than three most years. Sad to say, the addition of Mizzou has really done a lot to strengthen the conference...

I remember the days when winning 20 games and going 9-7 in conference would earn an 8 or 9 seed in the tournament. The top of the conference has almost always been the same 2 or 3 teams, but the middle of the pack used to be so much stronger. And of course the bottom third has never been so weak. When you have lower tier SEC teams barely scraping by SWAC opponents you know you have a shitty league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebevan91 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Just got home from the Memphis-Cincinnati game. My throat hurts from yelling at the dumbass coach who likes to sit players for an entire half or at least until it's too late to get back into the ball game.
