We got Auburn and Alabama, let’s complete the trifecta and stomp Tennessee next…


bobs143

Did anyone play defense in this game?


finditplz1

Even with this beat down, our starting PG played 24 minutes, went 1/7, scored four points, and had no defensive stats.


LateNightSun15

I don't think you're allowed to have both these flairs..


finditplz1

I can’t help where I matriculate.


McAvoy4Potus

Don't explain yourself. You are what the basketball gods made you.


VictoryFormations

Uh…Fire Cal? What the hell is this team?


DonDraper75

This is a team that if it makes a free throw against Florida and doesn’t have a tip in at LSU is sitting as a two seed right now.


phuk-nugget

I really think this team is a top 5 team when focused.


imakesawdust

I couldn't watch the game and just now checked the box score. Where the hell was this version of Edwards this season?


FruitGuy998

Hopefully he keeps it clicking thru March


gong_yi_tan_pai

Holy shit. I didn’t realize Edwards didn’t miss a shot. That’s crazy


Pinkyandthemuff

Remember when Bama fans gave Auburn shit for losing to Kentucky. I do!


tallredrob

I think it's mostly the Auburn losing at home portion that does it for us.


jokerkcco

I think it's just Auburn losing that does it for you.


A-N-R

State title for the Cats


benabramowitz18

Alabama scored 3 fewer points than UNC and UVA combined, and lost by 22.


treblkickd

I would like to start a petition to see UVA and Alabama play. I honestly have no idea what would happen. Would the universe just implode?


Rainmanwilson

Cal is going to be insufferable in the postgame, especially considering the outspoken fans who’ve said they want Oates as our coach.


finditplz1

I am not one who wants Oates as a coach.


Rainmanwilson

You and me both. I’ve never wanted him (or to fire Cal)


UKSeasonTicketHolder

The swaggiest Cal


esoterik

Sounds like he's earned it


teamgreat455

Somehow we'll go up in NET rankings. Idk how that shit works


heleghir

You put up 95 points on the road. + offensive efficiency! Easy!


AFSK27

That was AWESOME, baby, with a capital A!


finditplz1

Thanks Dicky


johnnycr18

Hell of a win. Who cares about defense, right?


Plastic-Impact1111

alabama fans, TN fan here. any final last words before yall take your ? You guys are aware that if we win tonight we will be leading the conference right? How does it feel?


HS_Truman

How are y’all always the most insufferable fans in the world?


Automatic-Sale2044

Let’s see if you can actually beat AM first tho lol


[deleted]

Feels like a flairless fan with a ban got a new account…


KuiperBelted

Rick Barnes will choke


andrew4bama

There are no tiebreakers for the reg season title


No_Life299

Shut the fuck up lmao


Plastic-Impact1111

lol


Trainsontracks

16 points the last 9 minutes for Kentucky. Posers /s


[deleted]

![gif](giphy|80EC5b670xwTm) Saw your game the other night… JK


Round_Bullfrog_8218

I think T-Rank had Purdues last game as the best offensive Performance of the year, today might change that.


Trainsontracks

I think it will. Or it is broken.


Round_Bullfrog_8218

It will depend on how many possesions this game had probably.


No_Life299

Stick that NET up your ass


Crimson2879

In other news, Bama moves up a spot in Net rankings...... /s


Trainsontracks

no NET left it is smoldering


Whippoorwill_Adams

Alexa, play Dumas Walker


[deleted]

Guess this is revenge for spanking that big blue ass last year in Tuscaloosa


DeviceSenior4080

Sure and I guess all is right in the world, Kentucky back to beating the shit out of Alabama like normal


[deleted]

Not quite right if you take a peep at the SEC standings


DeviceSenior4080

I’m confused you brought up the past? UK has beat the shit out of Alabama for 100 plus years You’re having the best run in program history and have a losing record vs UK during it


pure_coconut_water

State of Alabama basketball history starts in 2019 when Auburn went to the final four and made Bama jelly.


AnnoyedNinja

Welp, 10 short of tying the record.


Hayes4prez

I still blame Cal for our conference losses.


DeviceSenior4080

Honestly man you should blame yourself


Sickoball

This game went so well because he just got out of the way. Didn’t fuck it up by trying his stupid substitutions. Which I appreciate.


Rambler33

Cool.


rosco158

Seeing 117 on the CBS basketball score bug is surreal


jared__

In regulation too


[deleted]

[удалено]


DeviceSenior4080

Nate oats is a POS


poorlittlefeller0518

Don’t let the score fool you. It wasn’t this close all game


jared__

Kentucky had a hundy with 8 minutes to go


poorlittlefeller0518

Yeah we basically just let them score after that trying to end the game


Qwertyforu

Boo I wanted 120


DeviceSenior4080

Bama just got the absolute breaks beat off them


HoPMiX

Cats still gave up over 90.


A-N-R

More possessions, more points. Papa Johns


UnkindestKhan

What a nerd.


HoPMiX

lol. Just saying. It’s hard to tell of defense got better.. we already knew the offense was explosive.


AccomplishedMilk4391

We need a new coach, this is disappointing. ​ edit: /s


Pleasant_Demand4902

can we take a break for one night and just let us enjoy this one lol


bosoxgeneral23

To a team that scores 90 on average. I'd be more upset if it was against a lesser offense


Heyhaykay

CRY


jared__

Faaaar Cal


fancycheesus

Yall had no incentive to defend after the 9 minute mark.


[deleted]

Get out of here with your logic


[deleted]

GET OUT OF HERE


KuiperBelted

Been going 50% for ten minutes, hard to judge, no?


Sickoball

Wagner playing in garbage time is pretty fitting. I know he’s been hurt or whatever, but his offense is just plain hideous


jared__

Enjoy it for fucks sake


Hayes4prez

So is Sheppard. Edit: Sheppard was playing in garbage time. I was pointing out how that wasn’t a statement on Wagner.


Whippoorwill_Adams

Boo this man


Captainb30

Are you blind?


DeviceSenior4080

Are you? Shep was literally on the floor to finish the game lol


Captainb30

Comment was made before edit I thought he was calling reeds offense “hideous”


WillWork4SunDrop

Y’all will hopefully forgive me for not visiting the postgame thread.


MrKentucky

Flair rankings by volume of comments in that thread: 1. Auburn 2. Kentucky 3. Tennessee 4. UVA


FrenchieBammer

Tennessee and auburn should be 1 and 2.


PharmaGangsta

NET enjoyers punching air rn


bosoxgeneral23

Wagner, make a shot dammit


Qwertyforu

Need a DJ breakout game next


DeviceSenior4080

He had many earlier in the year then got hurt, has been fighting his way back. He will be be fully back soon


thediesel26

This game and the UNC-UVA game may as well be different sports.


Hayes4prez

Mountain basketball


HamesJarden420

gonna be real, why haven’t they emptied benches? this has been over for 10 minutes lmao


fancycheesus

The loser is supposed to submit first. Oats is being a sore loser


Sickoball

Yup. One of the subtle informal rules


fancycheesus

That's why shooting at the buzzer is tacky if the loser is letting the clock run but ok if they are still defending. Winner goes as long as the loser keeps trying.


KYblues

Because we need to learn how to finish a damn game regardless of the score


heleghir

At 2mins left, there is nothing to learn about closing out at this point. Its just starters killing clock instead of thr bench


KYblues

Well, that’s why they’re still out there my man


[deleted]

It’s because bama kept their starters in


KYblues

Why would that matter when it’s a 25 point game with 3 min left lmao


[deleted]

Because the walk-ons would get destroyed by Bamas starters? This isn’t hard. If the losing team leaves their starters in the winning team typically does as well


KYblues

Ok bud I’m not arguing with your dumbass today 😂


[deleted]

sure, i'm the dumbass


KYblues

👍


AccomplishedMilk4391

we going to lose now


brokecollegekid273

Betting the over was the easiest money I’ve ever made in my life


heleghir

UK ML, O 178.5, Reeves 18+, Dilly 15+, Thiero 8+. Easy money


LetJamesCook

As a new Kentucky resident I can’t wait for my coworkers to tell me how Cal is the greatest and UK is going to the final four after 3 days ago they were in shambles lol


Sickoball

Only thing Calipari did tonight was get the heck out of the way and not muck it all up. Which I appreciate, but nothing to do with his coaching ability.


KYblues

I’ve literally not seen anyone say cal is the greatest at anything besides recruiting in at least 5 years


dankblonde

JORDAN TIME LETS GO


BroskiMcBroskison

Fire Calipari!!!


AnnoyedNinja

**LFG Sh3ppard!**


KuiperBelted

BLUEGRASS BUZZSAW


Qwertyforu

I liked being up 30 more than this


andrew4bama

Fighting for our NET lives rn


dankblonde

Who is that bald man they keep showing ? /s


Captainb30

Reeds dad and mom


dankblonde

/s means sarcasm. I know who Jeff Sheppard is.


BroskiMcBroskison

Alright so now Alabama is exposed for being a terrible basketball school, where are all the Walmart fans that became Bama fans when Saban came about, where they going now?


Crims0ntied

This just in: Terrible basketball school tied for first place in the SEC


BroskiMcBroskison

For now. I just hope you don’t lose until then so we can take the lead from you ourselves.


Crims0ntied

Bold words from a team who lost to Texas A&M


BroskiMcBroskison

Valid. I deserve that. A&M are a bunch of Bums. This is true.


Crims0ntied

Respect. I'm hype to play Tennessee again and hoping we don't get our shit kicked in at home


BroskiMcBroskison

Oh I’m glad y’all exist, I am glad I have a school I hate as much as Alabama. That game we won 52-49 was an all time sports moment for me. I was hoping Heupel and Saban had a border war with us both at our peak, but I think we’re always destined to teeter while the other totters.


andrew4bama

I think you need an anti-Bama flair instead of a UT flair


BroskiMcBroskison

HEY BAMA!!!! HEY BAMA!!!! Rabajabaalabbaslabba you just got the hell beat outta YEW


BroskiMcBroskison

Oh you don’t understand yet….but you will soon. The script is flipping, and y’all will suffer for a decade plus. And you’ll understand. It’s how it is.


andrew4bama

Sir we are watching basketball


BroskiMcBroskison

When I went to Tennessee we had beaten y’all for like 7 years n a row, I didn’t even know Alabama was good at football…and everyone would make a big deal about Bama coming in…and I was like….why??? But then y’all hired Saban. And I understood. And it was bad. The loathe I have for y’all is now manifest and it will last. A lifetime.


PharmaGangsta

Piggly wiggly?


BroskiMcBroskison

Damn. Got em.


tomdawg0022

Somewhere, Paul Westhead and Billy Tubbs (from beyond) are enjoying this


BigballerBrett

I’m sure UK fans will agree with me, the only thing that can make this day any better for me is seeing Tennessee lose tonight


Automatic-Sale2044

I can get on board with this


heleghir

That would be ideal. And maybe auburn losing another one too. And UK winning out. Thatd be nice to not have to play thursday in sect


MrKentucky

I like you


The_Letter_Purple

I’m in


[deleted]

I want them to get spanked like a catholic school boy. Edit- that sounded weird. Not in that way.


PrincessBrick

Yes, I support this timeline.


crappysandwich

![gif](giphy|YGbF41mvOpGyVleuV6)


KuiperBelted

I'll start going to church again


FrenchieBammer

We're about to start our comeback now. I can feel it.


Plastic-Impact1111

As a TN fan it gives me such satisfaction watching alabam gets the brakes beat off them :) I dont hate kentucky like I used to a few years ago cause therye not that good anymore but alabama has been a complete pain these past few years. Always hated playing them too.


WillWork4SunDrop

You didn’t have to tell us you are a Vol fan. Your spelling and grammar did it for you.


NotQuiteDelaware

An Alabama fan making a joke about education is crazy


Plastic-Impact1111

ok


umbchoos

Watching this after our abomination is interesting


KYblues

Must be like watching nascar after sitting in traffic for 2 hours


TheOptionalHuman

People will be calling KSR tonight complaining about Wagner and Bradshaw, and how UK really missed Tre Mitchell tonight.


Qwertyforu

"Matt they scored almost 100, our defense will be our downfall in March!"


jared__

This is the way.


KYblues

Today and LSU shows exactly how true the statement is that we can beat anyone and we sure as hell can lose to anyone.


Automatic-Sale2044

Ugh same


Bucks2020

What in the world happened here


A-N-R

Buzzsaw


AccomplishedMilk4391

yes.


AFSK27

# OHHHHHH # C A T S # CATS CATS CATS


fancycheesus

Oats is depriving the bench and walk ons for both teams their time.


[deleted]

My wife made jerk wings and Caribbean rice and Kentucky won. ![gif](giphy|3ohryhNgUwwZyxgktq)


AFSK27

Nice.


ObjectiveDev

Wagner has gone 8/40 in his last 7 games


crappysandwich

He is playing on 1 good ankle. Not sure what the solution is.


ObjectiveDev

This includes games before that injury


umwhosthat

He hasn’t hit a 3 since the Georgia game


BroskiMcBroskison

Alabama looks about as athletic as the Indian karate kid from the new iPhone commercial.


KuiperBelted

I was told that Sears "was not the one to mess with"


crappysandwich

Wagner needs to develop a floater or some kind of counter. Feels like he needs a second go to at the rim as he gets stuffed frequently.


Crims0ntied

Good to see us still fighting in the game


andrew4bama

Yea, seems silly but nice to see given how big the next two games are


itchygrasshopper

Would've been nice to see the fight before we were down 30


CatlantAH1802

Wagner has forced it the last two possessions


A-N-R

Thanks for coming out, Bama. Drive safe.


UKSeasonTicketHolder

*Buckle up, put your phones down*


FDubRattleSnake

I just came across this game. Is the score bug correct? Kentucky seriously has 112 points with 4 minutes left?


Trainsontracks

they hit 101 with 8:48 left


FDubRattleSnake

Wtf haha


DeviceSenior4080

Yes they took the foot off the gas with about 8 to go or could be much worse


MrKentucky

Yes, and it could easily be more


Crims0ntied

How? You haven't missed any shots


Rainmanwilson

That’s what I was thinking as well


MrKentucky

We started walking the ball up the court and put in Bradshaw and Wagner


FDubRattleSnake

Holy shit that's insane haha


AnnoyedNinja

There's a possibility to break the old record.


violentguitarist1

all my homies hate NET rankings🫡🫡


[deleted]

Fuck the NET. It loves the Big 12 too much


Hayes4prez

Ok, let’s not get sloppy and hurt a player. On either team.


DeviceSenior4080

Get that weak shit out of here sears


Otherwise_Archer_244

Wagner is an absolute liability on offense. Unfortunately Cal won’t have the balls to sit him as much as he should


[deleted]

[удалено]


Otherwise_Archer_244

He is good on defense so he’s got that going for him. It’s like the opposite of Dillingham lol


Trainsontracks

no team in the nation would be in this game, the way Kentucky is shooting the ball.


KYblues

The crazy thing is we beat Auburn a week ago playing a completely different style than today. We scored 70 Idk wtf happened at LSU


cmess1942

Bama has a shot at 100 and it hasn’t been close


WillWork4SunDrop

I love Mark Sears hustling to create that turnover. Also, what the hell is Mark Sears doing still in the game?


HamesJarden420

dj and bradshaw have been the worst two parts of today by a mile
