KY -3 at home against a bad defensive team with no front court or rim protection while coming off an embarrassing loss may have been the easiest money all year.

As CPA said, flush it and figure out how to beat Ole Miss. It’s not inconceivable to be on a 4 game losing streak going into our last game of the year, but I’m hoping we can start playing well again next game or at least against UT at home.

Then why are they getting blown out by 30 points? That's strike 2 for Nate Oats imo. The first was getting ran by Auburn by 20 a few weeks ago. Either get these fricks playing consistently or gtfo.

1. We caught Kentucky at the wrong time coming off a loss.

2. This is what happens when you combine bad defense with the other team being being insanely hot shooting

We’ve got too many liabilities on defense to handle good offenses. That’s why making it to the 2nd weekend is the optimistic ceiling for this team.

Alabama has won 30 of 34 games with Sears and will be 11-3 in sec games with Estrada. You can do a lot worse. While we are all singing the praises of Uk here, let's remember they lost to Tamu, South Carolina, LSU, and Florida. Alabama beat them all. Can you imagine how disgusted you would be if you were a UK can watching this levels of talent being mediocre so often?

I for one will be happy to see Sears and Estrada leave. They are very talented on the offensive end but are probably the two worst defensive guards I’ve seen in over twenty years of watching Bama basketball. It’s sickening and Nate shouldn’t be blamed for their selfish basketball.


Troll

Our pg the last 2 years was infinitely worse. Clearly trolling

Alabama would beat Kentucky in Tuscaloosa so it is what it is.

KY guards are 21/29.

There's no way they can consistently shoot like that.

Embarrassing day.

Get ready for Wednesday.

Let everybody play, Nate.

We may lose by 50...they can't guard and KY doesn't miss

It’s college basketball. Sometimes you run into a team playing their best game of the season. Today that team is Kentucky who also is loaded with NBA players. It’s like playing the Warriors. Nothing at all we could ever do about it.

We could lose this game by 60 or by 1…as long as we win in Oxford and go 1-1 in these 2 games it’s the same thing

Kentucky is shooting 81% . 70% from threes.
Have missed just 3 shots in the half.

I think people have a tendency to forget how many teams Bama has done this to in the past 2 years. Sometimes it happens

Easy to do when not defended.

For SEC standing, yes. For NCAA committee seeding, nah. Getting abused on national TV matters in seeding. Beat Ole Miss and TN and it won’t matter, but lose to TN and FL and we’re probably dropping to a 4 seed.

Exactly.

They got guys who's hitting three's that aren't good shooters from the perimeter so it's just one of those games.

Is being first place in the Sec with 1 returning starter not pretty consistent or should we all just gtfo?

Don’t know what we have forgotten. All I know is we will never forget this beating.
Kentucky has done this to us a lot but this is special. We came in as the league leader and got treated like a HS team.
