How about poor execution got us down by 20 points and we had to leave the game in the hands of the refs! We played like crap to a team that should have never beat us! Effort was terrible!

Agreed. The crowd gave Alabama a ton of energy and they were more physical than us. They beat UK to every loose ball, fought for tons of offensive rebounds, and out manned us in the paint.
Why don't UK press more? We only press when were down 10+ points. When we started to press, Alabama got uncomfortable with the ball, they started rushing there offense, we forced a few turnovers, and made a comeback.
If we would have pressed this entire game and the UGA game it would have been two UK wins. I guess were we have a short bench Cal don't want to risk getting key players into foul trouble. Only reason I can think of not to press more.

This team shot lights out.

That's what happens when you give up uncontested WIDE OPEN 3's.
