UK is too big and physical.

Also, they beat the ish out of the team who came into our building and beat us while we were at the top of our game.

It was a 5 point game with 2 minutes left in lexington WITHOUT thornton. Let that sink in. By far our most accomplished big man, and we hung with them without him.

WGAF? You realize the transitive property doesn't apply to sports, especially basketball, right?




I'm by no means saying we'll win, but to say we'll lose by 15 seems odd. One or 2 games notwithstanding, we've played very well at home.

Top of our game? How many did they beat us by? When did they take lead for the last time that game?

Now......tell me how FT we made compared to attempted???

I know we suck at FTs in general, but that was the worst I've EVER seen at any level of basketball....

We get Thornton back for this game. Geno is a tall guard playing forward that can shoot. I'm not saying we win, but with our team at full squad (Parker probably not 100% yet), we definitely have a punchers chance.

We slow the game down. Pass a lot. Drive for fouls. Hit free throws.....they have a bad shooting night, ya never know.

Odd? We lost twice to USCe and once to Auburn...let that sink in.

That is not a team that is going to beat any #1 undefeated team at this point in the year, barring a miracle where at least 3 of the starters for UK get seriously injured between now and game time.

And? Every game is a new start, it really doesn't matter if we lost to sc and auburn. We also went on the road and beat a KSU team that has beaten Kansas and Iowa State in the last 2 weeks.

You think I'm crazy by saying we lose by less than 15? That's rich.

They are a lot better than we are in every phase of the game I can think of. If they are on their game they can pick the score.

Having said that, we have talent and some depth heavily salted with veteran players in both the front and back court and off the bench. Kentucky should be a bit nervous about this one as it has had the whiff of a potential upset for some time,

Regardless, Kentucky by 7.

I strongly predict Vegas comes down on your side of this debate. Kentucky will be a strong favorite, but it'll definitely be less than 15 points. I'll predict 11.5 at tip-off.

I think your crazy for thinking I am crazy for saying we lose by 15+

Everything we have produced this season will most likely prove my prediction.

Your prediction is the exception and unlikely.

I say the line is around -8. We have been the team that has the best chance of beating them. If we play smart force turnovers, rebound the ball well, and make the most out of every opportunity I like our chances of being competitive against them. I think we will lose the game but to just think we have no chance of winning the game is crazy.

Obviously in any game, any one can win.

My point is that it's so unlikely due to our inconsistent play and the fact we are playing the undefeated #1 team in the country, I give us < 5% change of winning.

I believe the line will be around 14'ish, same as Arky got. (btw, they are better than we are, IMO)

This thread is about how many points we lose by.

It's very likely this is the recap for our game.

It's college basketball. UK could come out ice cold and UGA could come out and shoot the lights out. The 3pt line is the great equalizer in college basketball.

We lose by about $12 million. That's the Kentucky basketball payroll. Players, not coaches.
