This game was not the cupcake most of you guys make it sound like. This is a team that averages around 90 points per game. They lead the nation in scoring last year. This isn't the Gardner Webb or San Diego of this year. I guarantee anyone that was playing VMI Friday night would have had fits. Look at UNC. They only beat Penn by 15 points and were only ahead by 10 with a couple of minutes left. If VMI would have shot like this against UNC, UNC would no longer be your #1 team. It wasn't just a lack of defense on UK's part, VMI had a lot to do with it as well.

Agreeing with you on this. They shot the lights out of the 3. Was it 11 that went in before a miss? And what? 14 foul shots or so before a miss? They were ON that game and UK just wasn't. We had a down night as a team. We weren't making a lot of shots that should have easily went in. Meeks was the only player that seemed to have hot hands. Patterson was in foul trouble and didn't play a lot. PG couldn't do crap for us. We have too many turnovers. A lot of factors were working against us. VMI was just having it their way. Like BC said, they average 90 points a game and as a small school like that, they have some big numbers. Anyone would have had their hands full Friday night.
