Georgia 78 Kentucky 69 OT

[Redneck]

Final

[Redneck]

**** of a comeback by Georgia.

Crawford finished with 29, tied his career high.

[alfus21]

No excuse for blowing a 17 point lead. Nobody played with heart tonight except Joe Crawford. The rebounding was the biggest joke of the year. And I've never seen a team make so much crap as Georgia did tonight. Gaines banked that 3, as the shot clock ran out in OT. That's what kind of night it was.

[-STAT-]

Played pathetic in the 2nd half. They deserved to lose after blowing a 17 point lead and 13 point halftime lead. Crawford played a pretty solid game with a career high 29 points. They just couldnt execute anything on the offensive end in the OT period. Tough loss for UK and hopefully they can regroup. Congrats UGA.

[Wyatt Earp]

A dose from Peachland.

[Redneck]

Crawford did play a **** of a game, but he disappeared for about the first 12 minutes in the 2nd half. Costly turnovers and **** poor reboundin beat Uk tonight. And yes alfus was right, Georgia made a bunch of BS shots, especially the one in OT when the shot clock run out.

[mcfan1]

After this, I am done with Kentucky basketball.

[Doc Holliday]

half-time adjustments.

Its like they rolled over and over.

:howdy:

[alfus21]

I'll put it this way. Unless Kentucky can really really pull it together from here on out there is no chance of making the NCAA tournament. They at least have to beat Florida once, and win 2 out of the 3 vs. Alabama, Arkansas, and LSU.

Right now that can't happen. They're just playing awful right now, and the defensive rebounding is a joke.

[The Fan]

if Tubby cant get them more motivated than what i seen in the 2nd half something is bad wrong.This is an embarassment no other way to put it,no heart ,seem to have no desire to win,no rebounding,and that terrible pass by meeks.Would you come here if you was a top recruit? I know I wouldnt right now.I am calling for Tubbys resignation ( like that means alot ). seriuosly he needs to go.

[The Fan]

:howdy:lets get back on the subject

[-STAT-]

I agree with alfus as well that they did make alot of crappy shots.

[alfus21]

lets get back on the subject

:) What?

[alfus21]

I'd never seen anything like it. They just weren't missing anything, even when we had a guy right in their face.

:) No I wouldn't have. I was saying bye to the guy jumping ship. No big deal.

Yepp, the Gaines bank shot sticks out the most. But there was one when #42 I think it was, was double teamed down low and just threw it up, and of course it went in. I had never seen so much luck in my life I swear.

Yeah, and there's a lot more than those two shots is what's sad.

Sometimes that's just how it is.

[Doc Holliday]

And when its like that, its difficult for a team that works so hard on defense and sometime struggle on the offensive end to win.

[BlackcatAlum]

Horrible 2nd half showing from the Cats. Crawford was the only one that showed up in the 2nd and he couldn't do it on his own. Gains just absolutley took over the final minutes of the game, and OT. UK couldn't come up with any rebounds what so ever, when it matterd most. The thing that got me most was that nobody would help out the man that was getting trapped, that just ran up and down me. Congrats Bulldogs!

[mcfan1]

Go ahead say all you want, I know it is hard to win on the road in the SEC, but when you have a 14 point lead with the ball with 12 minutes left, and you loose. Some of UK's offensive sets thay just stood around, no movement, no screens, just standing. And another thing SHERAY THOMAS IS TERRIBLE, what is he doing in the game, he played entirely the whole 2nd half; my only guess is he is Tubby's illegitimate son. Face it people, the program is going to the dogs.

I can admit it was an awful game, and the offense wasn't there in the 2nd half. It was there in the 1st, and funny how when they do good it's the players that get the credit, and when they do bad it's Coach Smith's fault despite the fact is screaming his lungs out for them to move. Thomas didn't play good tonight, but neither did Perry, and Stevenson dropped 4 easy passes in the 1st half alone.

The season isn't over yet, and I know it's just getting to the hard part of the schedule, but until it's over I'm not giving up. Kentucky can still pull out some big wins. They have to beat Vandy on the road, and beat Florida once, and like I said win 2 out of 3 vs. Bama, Arkansas, and LSU. This season isn't over yet, and a lot can happen.

Crawford didn't show up in the second half til late. Like I said earlier, he disappeared like the first 12 minutes of the second half after playin a great 1st half. But you are right, as a team the looked like **** run over.

Agree tubby is making the program going to the dogs

[alfus21]

It looks bad right now, but like I said. Still 10 games left. A lot can happen in that time period and with the way the SEC has been this year I'm being patient. No excuse for last season, so don't think I'm saying that but go look at the SEC scores and you'll see how wacky it really is.

If we finish 4-6 from here on out, things could get ugly. But 5-5 from here would be good considering the look of the remaining schedule.

[Redneck]

I just don't see them beating Florida, they will have a hard enough time keepin it respectable IMO. Remember what I said at the beginnin of the season alfus, they turn the ball over like they did early in the season and again tonight, they will be lucky to finish .500 in the conference. I'm not givin up on em either, but facts are facts, turnovers and bad decisions are gonna kill em.

The teams we play that are coming up, we would be lucky if we win 3 of the remaning games

[mcfan1]

I wish the best for Kentucky I have always been their #1 fan, but enough is enough, we are an experienced team, we should not be doing this. It will only get tougher from here.

I remember you saying that. If they play like this they will finish .500 in the conference. Tonight was awful. The SEC is so crazy right now though. Mississippi State is up on Florida right now, and I really believe any team can beat any team any night. I guess we’ll just have to take it one game at a time from here on out.

The teams we play that are coming up, we would be lucky if we win 3 of the remaning games

It is a brutal schedule, and winning only 3 games is feasible but I’m more optimistic than that.

[warriorpride]

Congrats UGA.

[firetubbyplease!]

but Alfus------Tubby recruited those players----and brings them in and out of the game----make excuses for him all you want----but the buck stops with him !!!

[alfus21]

I know who recruited the players, and I know what this team is capable of doing which showed in the 1st half, and during the entire South Carolina team. I just feel as if this team is struggling to find an identity on offense.

I know it starts and begins with the coach, but I'm going to let the season play out before I conclude that Tubby is useless. If they keep playing like this, it may be time for a change, but I'll see how the rest of the season goes first.

[ZMG]

After this, I am done with Kentucky basketball.

Buh bye.

[baseballfan]

I know that there are still a few game left but I still have made up my mine tubby needs to go. I just dont see him taking UK any place soon. I think its time for a new coach at UK

[firetubbyplease!]

Wasn't that the same comment made last year??? I sincerely hope you're right and Tubby can right the ship and make a good season and a serious run in the NCAAs---I dont want to see UK lose just for the sake of getting rid of a coach. It's just getting frustrating when you consider they have already lost to 2 teams in the Eastern div. of the SEC-----with two more games against Vandy and Georgia---not to mention Florida and Tenn. Plus those teams in the western div. (LSU, Bama, et al). At this point UK will do well to be 3rd or 4th in the Eastern Div.

I know this team has the potential. Like I said I guess we'll just have to see where the season takes us from here.

And I'm sure you'll make a difference in saying so. :rolleyes:

[Doc Holliday]

They will make the NCAA's mark it down.

The selection process sometimes looks at fans, amount of money generated and CBS
would love to see a Duke Uk match up even if its early.

[Doc Holliday]

Plus its only 2 losses and Lofton being out should help.

Don't give up on them yet.

[Old school Dawg]

Over the last 10 years Kentucky has won on the road very regularly and sometimes by large margins.

[firetubbyplease!]

I never GIVE UP on UK. I have watched them for as long as I can remember. I have watched or listened to every game for 25+ years. Will be a UK fan for life. Just very FRUSTRATED

[mcfan1]

UK will make the tournament, but this is UK, making the tournament is not enough.

[venom93]

This team displayed the killer instinct of a butterfly last night. They must have watched a Lifetime movie at the half or something.

[cardsfan]

I knew the Bulldogs would play them tough and give them more of a game than what they would be expecting!!!IMO the Wildcats will lose at least 5 more games this season.They just don't have it right now maybe next year??If they do make the NCAA Tournament they will be exiting very early!!!

[Cucumber]

back to back losses, What??

[BelfryJustice]

The sad thing is that a lot are jumping ship, because many are not pleased with UK basketball and the phase that it is currently in. Uk struggles in all of the big games anymore. UK won many of those in the past. Great job Georgia!

[mcfan1]

I will never jump ship, I was just mad about the game when I said that, but UK has done a complete 180 over the past 5-6 years.

[TidesHoss32]

i think their problem is that they are seriously one of, if not THE softest team in the SEC..they are flat out not aggressive enough, and teams like Georgia just beat and bang teams like that to death. Theres clearly an abundance of talent on that team, but until they get the least bit aggressive, they will not be able to play with several teams in their own conference.
