It took Calipari 12 years to lose 2 straight games at Rupp and it was the worst team in Kentucky basketball history.

Took him 2 SEC games to do it at Bud Walton.

I knew the Cal excitement would wain, just didn’t think it would happen before December. Rest of the season:

Best Miami get some hope.
Lose to Michigan much like you did tonight.
Have an uncomfortably close game where you go 3-20 against a low major.
Go on a run in late January to climb back into the rankings.
Lose 3 straight in February.
Sweat out the rest of the year ultimately ending up in a 6-9 seed.



What happened Knox? Finally has a breakout game and I don’t even remember him playing today.

Aidoo seems to have joined the long line of mysterious injuries that you never get any clarification on.

Expect another game like this from Fland in March when it matters the most.






But hey next year you’ll have a great recruiting class and highly ranked transfers with a brand new roster when DJ, Aidou, Z, Fland, Knox, and Richmond go pro.

That’s stupid. Playing it out would have been more beneficial to both teams in terms of end of games situations in a game that doesn’t count.

Finished the game 1/9
Scoring drought of 3:28
11 points in final 10 minutes

Pick and roll/switch defense/help defense was awful
Transition defense was horrible.
Need more consistency.
Only played 8 guys.

Getting worried he didn't even warm up tonight. What's his injury?

Unfortunately these things are features rather than anomalies.

Halftime scores of the last 3 opening exhibitions.

Kentucky - 35
Georgetown College - 34

Kentucky - 26
Missouri Western - 18

Kentucky - 39
Miles College - 48

Those teams had:
8 NBA draft picks.
A NPOY
and 2 Arkansas starters.

It was probably Indi’s, which has like 8 locations, and 3 or 4 spinoffs in Lexington and Louisville. The menu is basically the same as the Dixie Chicken one but those are pre-Covid prices.

The party wings are popular with my crew, someone usually brings a 30 piece but they’re $29 now.

Schedule got released then deleted.

Auburn and Arkansas are the home only games I remember
Texas and Oklahoma are the away only games I remember

Only Alabama, Vanderbilt, and Tennessee are the only home and away games

Edit: It's back.

Worst single season record in modern history
Longest SEC Regular Season Championship drought since 1926
Longest SEC Tournament drought in school history
Longest Sweet 16 drought in school history
First ever 3 game losing streak in Rupp Arena
First (and second) first round loss to double digit seed in NCAA Tournament

Those are just off the top of my head. I'm sure I could come up with a few more if I tried.

Its interesting the lengths you're taking to carry Water for Calipari's last few years making up things about NIL and acceptance. Must be what Cal is planting in the medias ear.

Last years Kentucky team included:

2 lottery picks
An All-American
3 of your starters next year (assuming he starts his best players)
2 additional McDonald's All Americans
and a 4* transfer

and lost to Oakland.

Why are you interested in who arkansas starts?

Because our former coach of 15 years and multiple players we have kept up with for the last 2-3 years are playing there now you waterheaded numbnut.
