Still not sure how they lost so many in SEC play.

They have size, rebounding, defense, and enough offense with Gillespie and Ament.

Could give Michigan a good game.

All about the draw. I think UF, Ark, Bama would all beat this ISU team missing their best player.

They started the pre-season looking outstanding and then just collapsed from there. Flashes of greatness and a whole lot of stupid. Turnovers have been a plague (even this game). They really are up and down.

I don’t know how in the hell we beat y’all twice. It makes no sense.

You had 17 turnovers tonight, we had 20. But your rebounding more than made up for it and you got those smug pricks rattled. Well done.

Congrats on the Elite 8 and Beat Michigan!

It could happen but will require Ament and Gillespie going for a combined 50.

Tenner plays tough D unlike a lot of teams in the SEC. Looking at Arky and Bama. That definitely helps when the shots aren't falling.

It depends on if Barnes shows up. He was fired up yesterday and I knew they’d win. They lose when he sits idle with his head in his lap, he’s always been like this.

If we just got rolling on offense even a little bit there was no doubt to me that we could make a little run. Hopefully we can snipe Michigan

So good they got swept by one of the sorriest Kentucky teams we've seen in awhile. Kudos

They have a tendency to literally just quit after halftime.

Not so much quitting as they would start making stupid turnovers. I mean shite like throwing the ball to no one when you're not even being guarded that well. Dumb passes and the like.

With a team that runs hot and cold on offense, turnovers during a cold run kill everything you've built.

Exactly. They quit playing their game. They quit paying attention and start giving a half arse effort.

Then when they get down 12 points they wake up and try to play catch up, but the other team already smells the blood in the water.

Yup Ament and Gillespie will absolutely need to be on their game. If they are there's a shot at taking out Michigan.
