The fans are as loud as as we have heard all season. The score is 20-16 UK with a little over 10 minutes to go in the first half.

29-24 UT with 4 minutes to go in the half.

They are killing us from 3. 7 for 9!
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:08 PM:
 
This is a brutal, physical game. Tennessee is going all-out, full helter-skelter mode, and our boys are rattled.

Travis!
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:12 PM:
 
Travis a big 3 near the end of the half we are down 36-34!
 
Posted by CatFanInYankeeville (Member # 2025) on 03-16-2019, 04:12 PM:
 
36-34 at half. WE can't let UT keep raining 3s like that. 7/9 from deep is unreal.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:13 PM:
 
Andy Kennedy is an idiot. He just said that this was a "clean game". Really??? Jeez, it is like a WWE tag-match!
 
Posted by SCWC (Member # 2464) on 03-16-2019, 04:20 PM:
 
We have to defend the three point shot, our nemisis, Tenn have made 7 of 9 three pointers in the first half.
 
Posted by Bama Cat (Member # 153) on 03-16-2019, 04:21 PM:
 
I am pissed at two players on Uk's team and if you look back at a tape of this first half you can tell who they are very easy. The first one is Washington. How many times has he done this to himself? I'll just say, more than once. Everytime he gets into an arm wrestling match he takes a swing at the other guy and makes it a double foul.

The other one is someone who can't play defense. On 75% of the threes they made take a look at the number on our players back. It is 3!!!! Johnson has given up too many 3's cause he doesn't play on the man close enough.

Other than that, I hope we get another big man for next year. Richards may decide he's had enough. When you come in and have to go sit down after 1 play there is something wrong.

I hope we have enough left to win this game.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:21 PM:
 
We have to get out on their 3 point shooters. Travis led the Cats in scoring with 8 points. Schofield and Bone led UT with 13 and 8 points.
 
Posted by Bama Cat (Member # 153) on 03-16-2019, 04:26 PM:
 
PJ better get his ass off the bench in the second half and score about 16 points and get 8 rebounds. This crap of resting most of the first half of a game better end real quick if he is looking for an NBA career.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:27 PM:
 
I was surprised Cal didn't call a few time-outs as the Cats really were soft the whole half.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:28 PM:
 
Start the second half going 2-2 from the line. Tie game.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:33 PM:
 
Compared to the first half, the whistles are looser.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:35 PM:
 
Washington gets his 3rd foul early in the half.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:35 PM:
 
They are going to send a lot of players to the bench unless both teams back off on the physical play.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:38 PM:
 
Schofield and Bone have 25 points between them.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 04:38 PM:
 
Our pick and roll defense continues to be terrible. Travis just lets UT guy roll wide open to the basket and PJ stupidly picks up his 3rd. That's what we need to do to Williams.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 04:39 PM:
 
How many layuos have we missed in the last 2 games.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:39 PM:
 
Blew a lay-up really hurt.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:40 PM:
 
Montgomery ties 45 all.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 04:40 PM:
 
We need EJ and Richards to be big in their minutes.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:41 PM:
 
Montgomery for a big 3 and the lead!
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 04:41 PM:
 
There we go!
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 04:41 PM:
 
That was a clean block.

Cats go up 49-48!

You cannot be any more straight up than Quickly just was.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:48 PM:
 
Refs have a couple of dubious calls!
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:49 PM:
 
Lots of ticky-tack fouls suddenly. And Vitale is doing every voodoo trick in his arsenal to will Tennessee to win this one.

I need another bourbon...
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:49 PM:
 
We have to go on a run or we could in some serious trouble.
 
Posted by Old Norm (Member # 1482) on 03-16-2019, 04:50 PM:
 
That last foul on Travis was one of them.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:50 PM:
 
Technical foul on UK bench. Any guess who might have called it?
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:50 PM:
 
Bench just got a dubious foul and wear now down by 2!
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:52 PM:
 
Alexander fouls out. The first of many?

54-53, down by a point.

Washington puts the Cats in the lead!
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:54 PM:
 
Kentucky takes a 3-point lead on the ally-oop to Washington and the run-out dunk by Johnson.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:56 PM:
 
Heck of a game and need a run right now.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:56 PM:
 
We don't seem nearly as rattled in the second half. But Tennessee isn't wilting either. Great game!
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 04:58 PM:
 
57-56 Cats with 9:32 to go.

Goal tend put UT up by 1!
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 04:59 PM:
 
Johnson cannot finish in traffic. Damn. Then PJ gets called for a goal-tend on the other end. Tennessee up by one.

Cats take a 3 point lead 61-58!

UK by 3... up-and-down action today!
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:01 PM:
 
I don't know why, but I am nervous as can be for some reason. I hope we can pull this game out.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:01 PM:
 
Cats on a roll score again to make 63-58! 6-0 run in the last minute.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:01 PM:
 
Woah. UK goes on a 6-point run in 60 seconds! UK leads by 5.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:02 PM:
 
ukman, I feel the same way.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:03 PM:
 
We can't switch guards onto Williams down the stretch. If we do we will lose the game. We will get too many fouls, and he will get a ton of freethrows. If we do switch then we are going to have to double on the pass to him.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:03 PM:
 
This has been one heck of a game!!!
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:04 PM:
 
Gotta give Barnes credit. I think that's the 3rd time this game Tenn has scored coming out of a timeout.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:05 PM:
 
Cats at the line for a 1-1 and hit both to go up to 5 point lead!
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:06 PM:
 
Haven't heard from Herro in a while.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:06 PM:
 
UK has a chance to extend the lead...and Johnson gets the and-one!
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:06 PM:
 
Score and we go for the line!!!!!!
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:06 PM:
 
I retract what I said about Johnson not finishing in contact!!!
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:07 PM:
 
67-60 Cats and we get the ball back!
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:07 PM:
 
Cats gotta stay focused and keep taking care of the ball.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:08 PM:
 
I like the poise these cats have shown. Tennessee is giving them all they can, and we just give it right back.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:09 PM:
 
Washington gets elbowed but no call.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:09 PM:
 
Like to see us go strong at Williams and get his 4th, or he may be reluctant to pick it up and get some easy baskets.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:09 PM:
 
67-60 Cats with 6 minutes to go.

I do not understand that whistle and stoppage of play. UK had the rebound and could have gotten out on the break for an easy two

Williams just jumped in front of Johnson... he did NOT establish his position. Bad call.

Travis with a foul, a dubious one for sure!

I've been waiting to see a guard go strong into the defender coming off that pick. Should be a foul every time.

UK should be up 10
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:12 PM:
 
UK lead up to 7 again. Let's protect this lead and extend it over the last 5 minutes.

Pathetic call on a loose ball. Really, a kick

Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:13 PM:
 
Even if he hooked Keldon their not going to call it.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:13 PM:
 
Refs are calling WAAAAAY too many fouls. The game has lost any semblance of flow.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:14 PM:
 
Keldon's right, he did grab his arm. You can see it clearly. Unbelievable.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:14 PM:
 
UK had built up some momentum, and the refs made sure that was killed.

4:47 to go 68-62 Cats!

That was not very good offense, but we get to the line at least.

Doug Shows and company have decided that this game is all about them.

Need a good posession here
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:18 PM:
 
Gotta hand it to Barnes. He switched to a zone which further stymied UK's momemtum. We look lost on offense.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:18 PM:
 
KJ takes it to the rack and gets the and-one again!

Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:18 PM:
 
There we go KJ. 4 on Williams. Now make the free throw.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:19 PM:
 
Maybe we can figure out some zone offense during this timeout. But I bet Barnes will go back to man briefly coming out of the TO.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 03-16-2019, 05:20 PM:
 
UKman, that was a sweet play!!!
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:20 PM:
 
What a change from the first half. Tennessee was 7-9 from the arc in the first stanza... have they hit one this half? I don't remember any!

Don't jinx us Tip. Hope we can keep it up on the defensive end. No open threes, just tough twos without fouling.

Why do we not double williams on the catch. He has trouble passing out of a big double.

Just a terrible turnover and then the foul.

PJ fouled at least three times. No call

No freaking contact on that play, huh? Unfreaking believable. How do you not make that call

We miss and it looks like we are going to get beat! Ouch

They called a foul on Hagans? UT player plowed him over!!!!!!

He was held before he even caught the ball. They gave that to Williams three times today.

Oh well.

Give UK the #2 seed in the West now

Down by 3 with 11 seconds to go, doesn't look good! They scored on 6 straight possession.

I am sad that we lost. Very, very bad officiating.

This leaves a bad taste in my mouth. No SEC regular-season title, no SEC title, and now we almost certainly lost our number one seed.

It's obvious they were not going to let the SEC player of the year get fouled out. Shouldn't be a double standard. If they called fouls on him like they did Travis he would have been out a long time ago. BS, BS, BS!!!!

80-78 down by 2 with 4 seconds to go and the have the ball!

Cal does himself no favors by go nuts at the refs all the time. It shouldn't matter, but it does. He will never get the benefit of the doubt on a call.

2.4 second to go and they are at the line! Game over they are up by 4!

Tennessee won on great execution over the last two minutes. They got a lot of help from the refs too.

One of the worst losses I have ever seen by UK! Ouch!

We can't say there were questionable calls. There was no question about how bogus they were.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:38 PM:
 
Barnes made some great coaching moves and we weren't prepared. They went zone and we didn't know what to do, they bring the press on and we weren't ready. I've said a million times that it pays off to switch things up every now and then. It keeps a team from getting comfortable, and that's what won them the game. Oh yeah, and the BS non calls down the stretch hurt a lot too.

No way we should have lost this game. Now the tournament committee will put us down at a 3 seed in Dukes bracket for sure.

Tenn ends up shooting nearly 50% from 3.

I almost never complain about the refs but that was ridiculous!

Did Herro play today? Wait, I remember now that he was in, he turned it over near the end of the game.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 03-16-2019, 05:42 PM:
 
I don't think that a close loss to a former number 1 ranked team will drop us to a 3-seed. But it would be a HUGE surprise if we don't get bumped to a 2-seed.

We lost by one or more of 3 ways.

1. We choked with an 8 pt lead with about 2:30 to go.
2. The refs were bought and paid for.

3. TN decided to play hard the last 2 min utes and we stopped guarding the 3.

.............and was said above, we probably will get a 2 seed and go to the west.

And that last call gave the refs intentions away. If they could call that foul on us when we were standing there and the guy just ran over us like a dump truck????

FIX, FIX, FIX, FIX!!!!! [Mad]

Handy, you are correct. Herro was a net negative in the second half, after playing a stellar first half.
 
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 03-16-2019, 05:49 PM:
 
We will be a two, but we will now be a lower two. I would have been fine being the 2 and going to Louisville. Maybe that will still happen, but I know in my heart we will get screwed and we will end up with the absolute toughest road to the finals. No doubt in my mind.

wE STILL, AT THE END OF THE YEAR, DON'T KNOW WHAT 40 MINUTES OF BB MEANS. wE WERE SO CLOSE WITH THAT 8 PT LEAD WITH 2:30 LEFT. i TOLD MY WIFE WE NEEDED TO GET IT UP TO 12 AND IT WOULD BE OVER. GUESS THEY DIDN'T HEAR ME. aS cAL WOULD SAY "ANOTHER LESSON LEARNED". iS THERE ANY TIME LEFT TO LEARN ANOTHER LESSON THIS YEAR?

If Williams gets called on one of the fouls he committed on PJ in the last 2 minutes, we win the game. And let's not forget the bogus technical that got them 2 points as well.
Despite all that, we lost this game because we didn't take care of the ball down the stretch. Too many poor offensive possessions, and too many turnovers. This just really, really sucks.

Next time we learn a lesson it will be the end of the season.
