Cats vs Vols in Thompson-Bowling . The Cats are now 2-2 in conference play so far and KY desperately needs a quad 1 win in the worse way!
Vegas has the Vols as a 5.5 point favorite!
KY can't afford to start slowly today like they have most of the season so far! If we could start games as strongly as we finish them we'd have several more victories this season!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 01-17-2026, 11:51 AM:
All stats between the 2 teams are almost dead even with the exception of rebounding and UT averages about 4 more/game than KY. That's one stat we need to win today!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 01-17-2026, 11:54 AM:

I didn't get to see the game today. I just know that we won. I'm going to sit back and relax and watch it now. GO BIG BLUE 💙
Posted by GA Cat (Member # 642) on 01-17-2026, 04:14 PM:
This is the most mental team I have ever seen.
Posted by Bigcatdaddy (Member # 21) on 01-17-2026, 08:22 PM:
I take exception to thinking I’ve given up on the team.
I watch every game I can. At times with my blood pressure it can be life threatening. lol
I will admit when we play as poorly as we have my confidence wains. However, I love the cats and my support doesn’t stop.
I do struggle with how NIL and the transfer portal have changed the game. It does feel more like a minor league professional sport now.
Just my $.02
Posted by handycat (Member # 2323) on 01-17-2026, 09:08 PM:
I agree with everything you said.
This is probably shocking to some but I have a tendency to exaggerate. This team drives me crazier.
Posted by Bigcatdaddy (Member # 21) on 01-17-2026, 09:27 PM:
This team has the ability to do that Handy.
I hope they have the ability to bring us great joy too.
