Wow, another loss! Too bad ol' Billy can't find a loophole in winning games the way he does in recruiting rules.

Nice come back after getting slapped around in the first half, but it was a little too late for the 'Cats.

I don't think either team should talk smacxk. Only thing it seems to do is come back and smack you in the face.

I'm more worried about my team, than someone else coming out and laying a dud.

I get no satisfaction out of see ul lose. Just as I get no satisfaction out of seeing Duke lose.

I agree with you. It hurts the SEC when any SEC school loses an OOC game. I'll have to hear "the SEC is down " arguement when UT wins the SEC this year.

I don't see how anyone can make the statement "when UT wins the SEC", have you not watched College basketball over the past decade? Basketball is the weirdest sport when it comes to guarantee victories, so there isn't a way I would ever say "UK will win the SEC this year". Knowing that any SEC can make a run at the right time(GEORGIA), or any other team in any other conference.


So Vols30, I think your statement is absurd.

They will be a high seed in the NCAA! I would rather play a game like that than blow out an outmanned team by 40. This type of game will get us ready for conference play. Should head into conference play with about 4 losses. Not too bad as Billy's teams get better as the season progresses!

From what I've seen from the other SEC teams, I feel very confident in saying UT will win the SEC. Ut has only lost to Gonzaga on a neutral floor. Gonzaga is a possible final four team.

The Vols have not lost at home in 2 years. So, they will win all their SEC home games, and only lose to Florida on the road. Vandy lost to much from last year, and UK has already lost twice at home. The best of the SEC West(LSU, Miss ST) has to come to Knoxville this year.

UK will be playing alot better when SEC play rolls around, But so will the Vols.

You ever take a step back and look at what we're playing at any given time?

Our best lineup is : Liggins, Meeks, Miller, Harrelson, Patterson.


3 players new to Division 1 basketball, 1 Sophomore, and 1 Jr who has the experience of a sophomore.

Another lineup? Porter, Meeks, Harris, Stevenson, Patterson.

That's the usual starting 5, Two offensive threats, 2 players playing out of Position and a player that has motivation problems.

I dont' see how you can expect a coach to prepare players for Division 1 basketball, you can teach the game, but you can't teach the speed of the game. You can only practice against each other, so it'll be hard to adjust for some players. I have faith in CBG, and you should too.

If you've ever played a sport, or gone from a smaller, younger leauge to a bigger, stronger, faster, smarter leauge, you'll understand my point.

You're kidding yourself, BB75. But you're not kidding the Nation who has seen you beaten by Gardner Webb, San Diego, and VMI. Giving up 111 points at home is far worse than losing to WKU on a neutral court.

Uh, huh. There's someone kidding themself here but it's not me. If it was UK ranked number 3 and we lost to WKU and you guys lost to VMI, we both know you would be saying the exact same thing I've been saying and you know it. Two unranked teams play, both teams score over a hundred points, and one of them wins. Gee. Meanwhile, the number three ranked team in the country gets their heads handed to them by 14 points and it makes sports headlines all across the country, and any sports expert you care to name calls it the "first major upset this season", but the camp of the now-former number 3 team makes no effort to explain the loss, except to try and make everyone believe that the game involving two unranked teams was somehow a worse defeat. And you accuse ME of kidding MYSELF? Yeah, right... :icon_rolleyes:

By the time he's through responding, he'll probably make out Dayton to be the greatest thing to happen to college basketball since they invented inflator needles and it was perfectly alright for the Cardinals to lose to them.

Which is worse? They both suck. Neither one should have lost.

UL was ranked #3 and lost to Dayton. Should not have lost. UL sucked that day. Play 10 times and UL probably wins 8.

UK being beaten by VMI also sucked. VMI is not a great team. They are 6-2. Kentucky sucked that day. Play 10 times and UK probably wins 8.

And who cares if you lose to a team 3 times. Sometimes a team has your number. How many times did UF win in a row for basketball? UT and UF kill us in football every year.

Dayton, GW, VMI, whatever. A loss is a loss.

Well excuse me, BB75, but I got the Music city bowl and the Liberty bowl mixed up. I remember the Liberty bowl. We used to go there back when we were in C-USA. After winning the BCS bowl, the rest of them pale in comparison.

How will it look to the rest of the SEC if you lose to a C-USA team? I'm surprised they haven't voted your football team out by now, but then, everyone does need a homecoming team to play.;)

I feel the same way BigBlue75 does though, when history sides with UL(BCS Bowl Win, Final Four) It's all good. As soon as one UK fan brings up the 7 national titles, 43 SEC Championships and a Title in football too, it's completely irrelevant, and all UK fans live in the past.

UL is so bad in football I sold my student season tickets to a neighbor for 13 dollars, and made a 2 dollar profit. They don't check ID's as long as you have a beer and a red/black/white shirt on you're allowed into the massacre that is to follow.

They have to have the worst student section in football and basketball that I have ever seen. I have been to Murray St for a game, WKU for a game, and Morehead and they ALL have better student sections that get more into the games. Of course there is a little less to do in those towns but come on you are a major D-1 college you should have atleast a decent student section.
