For the most part, I thought UK played solid D throughout. Some of the shots Florida hit in the 1st half were ridiculous, heavily contested two-pointers that you had to believe wouldn't continue to fall for the whole contest - and they didn't. The offensive was a struggle and UK didn't attack the press well at all. Hagans had no trouble dribbling through it but when he did they didn't continue to attack choosing to instead set-it-up. The one 2nd half stretch where the Gators stretched their lead was brutal; endless offensive rebounds for the home team and turnovers for the good-guys.
UK stayed the course, kept playing D and the Gators eventually folded shop. This has to have a positive effect on the Team Psyche and make the players even more mentally tough. That last 6-minutes was impressive.
Onto S.C. which is always an ugly affair. Win the rebounding war and crack down on Silva and UK wins comfortably.

That RC for the analysis and I would agree with your evaluations.......I believe the Scratchers are slowly fading as an active board......  |

I'd have to agree. It's gotten very quiet for the prime time of the year. There are lots of views on some threads but postings are going down.

I'm blaming you RC.  Maybe your takes are a bit too accurate and informative. Possibly too much logic and level headedness as well. Just ask ESPN....sound analysis doesn't bring traffic. Hot takes and irrational drama are what the masses want. We need more thread titles like these.... We're clearly inferior to KU I secretly obsess about Duke This is Cals WORST team EVER! Bilas doesn't like nachos Cal should resign immediately Herro's going undrafted Herro's going top 10 Sometimes I wet the bed at night Greg Marshall better than Cal? Our 2027 recruiting class keeps me up at night This is Cal's BEST team EVER! I figure that should be enough to cover a weeks worth of basketball. After that we can start the cycle all over again.  |

I like a lot of posters here, mostly because everyone keeps it classy. I hate the ignorance that goes on, on other uk boards. I miss 4-bar for always keeping stuff alive. |
