GAME 33 - OKLAHOMA (20-12) vs KENTUCKY (21-10) 8:30pm CST on SEC NETWORK

I think they should have put pressure on. I don’t think the coaches are perfect. But you can’t ignore how this team is playing down the stretch and that has to be coaching, too, right?
Then don’t say quit blaming the coaches for piss poor decisions.

Ya the team is playing better… but this staff also let go 2 starters that are doing well, 1 kicked our ass twice.

We’ll see how he does next year. If he can get to the tournament with 5 new starters and 8 total new guys then I’ll change my mind.

Blame the players as well but that was a horrible def “play” COACHES designed.
 
There’s no moral victory in it. It sucks we lost, but if you can’t recognize the heart it took to get back in the game, then there’s no point in talking.
At some point heart is just heart tho. I'm proud they came back. But how can you not take the game? We took that Michigan one earlier this year that we had no business stealing, but pm has to win games
 
They ran multiple screens to get him open. Some can blame on pm, but some is clearly players.
Ya. It is not as easy as everyone thinks to stop a guy when he has screens and room to work. Smart play by them to not try to inbound to him at baseline. I was more mad that we didn’t cut him off at the baseline under his basket and we also had a guy there with a chance to block the shot.

But good play setup by them and Oweh is very good. Hopefully we learn after 2 times.

But you have an extra player by not guarding the inbounder. Why not double Oweh around the screens and deny him the pass, or at least make it harder.

That pos Garrison talking **** getting pushed back to the locker room. Yeah this one woulda been nice just cause their team is full of punks.
I'm not even sure they are full of punks, but we know for sure Garrison is a big enough punk he makes you hate the whole team. Couple that with the constant reminder of the Kansas obnoxious fans, now saying BIG BLUE, and you have a team easy to despise, lol....
 
So let’s go back two weeks. After we lost to UK, Moser said he didn’t call timeout to set up our last possession because UK had been doubling Fears on inbound plays and he didn’t want to give them a chance to set their D to do that. I actually didn’t disagree with him. So … you’d think that maybe he would realize that tonight, maybe, just maybe, WE should deny their guy the ball. Not only do we not deny by putting two guys on him on the pass, we obviously designed the defense to LET HIM CATCH THE PASS without any pressure, and then hope we could keep him from getting where he wanted even with a full head of steam.

Look, props to him for the comeback, and keeping the team in it when it looked like it was over. But the fact remains, whenever a game comes down to one play, be it on offense or defense, it’s terrifying because he just never comes up with a plan that puts his players in the best position to succeed.

I can agree with this. Our struggles with end of game situations is well documented....
