Cal being embarrassed by a clueless Ollie

Freshmen are being a Freshman.

30-15! Blow out. I'm not sure what Kentucky can do. UConn so much quicker than they are.

Ollie clueless lol yea right, Cal is just a great salesman bro.

Ollie's a great coach. UConn plays very smart.

Ollie is a great coach. You're a fool if you think otherwise. Cal is also a great motivator.

[KRIT]

Cats should stick with the zone. They don't have the foot speed to guard uconn man-to-man.

[jtoler]

UK frosh well be thinking about the pros midway through the 2nd half, Uconn just cant let up.and not get lax like they are now, smart time out by Ollie.

[KRIT]

Other than the bail out 30 foot 3pter by Napier, uconn has done zilch against the zone.

[Simon Gruber]

Just take the lead into the half so I can enjoy my glenlivet in peace

[Plaza23]

Kentucky's games have been the exact same way every tourney game. They get down in the 1st half, and then claw their way back by half.

[jtoler]

He had Boatright off the floor too long, should have been sitting Napier some, he's played nearly the whole half. Other guard turning the ball over.

[Simon Gruber]

Kentucky is gonna smack the shit out of this team in the 2nd

[TakingVegasMoney]

They need to attack Daniels right off the bat of the 2H. He needs to pick up that third foul asaps

Not so fast Plaza.. 4 point game at half... Uconn up though and I'll take it!!!!

[jtoler]

Ollie is going over sets to run against the zone as we speak, expect some high low action in the 2nd half and an option to kick out off of that. Maybe use Daniels near the line, cant trust Nolan or Brimah at the FT line in that scenario. Kinda funny UK with the all world supposed athletes have to resort to a zone. They are doing what other teams should have done to them.

Thoughts on 2H Kentucky -2.5?

Thoughts on 2H Kentucky -2.5?

Just laid a few

[KRIT]

I'm feeling okay about my UK ticket. Down only 4 and Randall has barely done anything. Game may come down to how Ollie and Uconn counter the zone.

Pinny only has Uconn +4 2H at -128. Seems pretty low.

i hopped on Kentucky -2.5 for 2.5u second half

[Simon Gruber]

Uconn offense is slapstick comedy

[GoBlue77]

wow refs sh1tting all over kentucky now. that was a easy foul call they missed

[TakingVegasMoney]

Kentucky much bigger now that Brimah picked up number 3. If Daniels gets his third it could get ugly for UCONN

[ReconSnarff]

Replace Uconn with Kentucky and you have a truthful statement.

[jtoler]

Haha my boy Ollie went to a 2-3.

[paco]

Ball don't lie Julius

[jtoler]

Napier trying to get the team more involved, not being aggressive, Itll be his time last 7-8 minutes.

[yoderlw]

Took UConn to get first 10 of the half- thanks for stepping up and getting that steal Boatright. Now just hit one free throw.

[yoderlw]

I'm surprised to see Napier getting so frustrated. He's such a level-headed guy and great leader.

[jtoler]

Trap, trap, trap....turnover.

[Plaza23]

James Young that was nasty!

[ReconSnarff]

I'm surprised to see Napier getting so frustrated. He's such a level-headed guy and great leader.

a little too much emotion. This isn't football where you can physically unleash that rage and emotion. Have to focus that in order to shoot the ball.

[jtoler]

Daniels forcing, thinking he needs to get a shot in and taking bad shots, other ways to help your team if youre not getting looks.

[GoBlue77]

I'm surprised to see Napier getting so frustrated. He's such a level-headed guy and great leader.

shoving his own teammate...dik move

[jtoler]

Yea Napier needs to quit getting mad at Boatright, definitely not a good look. Gonna be tough down the stretch, UK gonna be going inside every play.
