CauseThatsMyDJ Posted November 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Going to bed, but scores to watch: western Kentucky/Washington and BYU/Nevada. Will Hoosiers be ranked if Washington goes down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 I ain’t going to lie...Duke is scary good. Not sure we have the horses to beat that team. Going to be a quiet day at work with how bad UK looked. Time to break out my IU Bobby Knight throw back red sweater lol!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgambill Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Cal may call up Stoops to help him with his defense. That was abysmal tonight...and you could see it coming the way they played their last warm up game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 No respect for Coach K and the team he bought but I'm also not unhappy to see UK get spanked right out of the gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 Don't care if it's 1st game or not. 34 point getting bent over blowout loss for the nation to watch won't sit well with the fans across the Ohio. They probably won't even enjoy the season because now they'll be worried what will happen in March or April. With that said...slowing the game down, making timely 3's, above 75% from FT line and pray they get into foul trouble is about the only way we keep that one close in a few weeks.

I think we have very little chance to win against Duke, but I don't think we get beat quite THAT bad. Once again, Kentucky is vastly overrated in the preseason. One of these days, the 'experts' are going to realize that, while you can occasionally get that special class (Duke this year, UK with Anthony Davis), a roster filled with one and done players is simply not a recipe for a Championship caliber team.

I had to take a peak this morning at Rupp Rafters. I was blinded by the sun when I read the first comment saying Calipari needs to recruit better players. I had to tap out and never go back again.

Agree Fouls. Plus IU staff will have scouted / tape reviewed this game heavily. I expect our D to be tough against Duke. On the flip side, we'll need to get a big game out of Morgan in particular -- as good as Rob has looked, and as talented as Romeo is, this is a game where Morgan, with his level of experience and talent, has to lead strong, and through doing so, open up the floor for Romeo et al.

The first guy I talked to today said Cal has got lazy and he isn't getting the best players anymore. He was more worried how this will effect next years recruiting then the fact they lost. All UK fans have to look forward to anymore is signing day and draft day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well....maybe now we see Coach K loves those poor athletes a little more....because he probably has top 3 picks in the draft.....Vernon Carey will be watching closely lol.

I think we gave up 100+ 3 times in our first 5 or 6 games. People were freaking out and Knight turned in one of his best coaching jobs ever in my opinion. We'll see if Cal is up to the task.
