Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down: UK vs. UGA
- Rating: No Rating
Thumbs Up
First half - Great first half
Darius Miller - He continues to play very well
Liggins - doing his thing
Lamb - very good game on both ends of the court.
Overall a really good win!
Thumbs Down
The Refs - The Refs were horrible. The refs dictated the play in the 2nd half. I thought teams were suppose to battle to determine who dictated the game but I guess the refs thought that was their job.
Nothing really thumbs downs. Fans are going to say a horrible 2nd half and over analysis it. I really thought the difference was the officiating. I never say that but they really stopped UK from being aggressive because they wouldn't call obvious fouls.
UGA is a good team and we beat them playing an overall good game.
GOOD WIN!!!

It was a bad second half. The intensity was down, and shot selection was much worse than the first half (which was a very solid half of basketball). Miller did play well today, as did Lamb and Liggins. What I really did not like the second half most of all was our composure in the last 3 minutes. We seemed like we were trying to give the game away, and Georgia just made as bad of mistakes as we did.

missed easy shots in the 2nd half. if the refs arent going to call fouls, need to focus more and finish plays.

Nothing really thumbs down? Second half we coulodn't hit the ocean from the beach. We got out rebounded, especially on the offensive end. We were sloppy trying desperately to close out this game, same as USC.

There are really only 6 players on the team on a good day. When starters get into early foul trouble this really hurts. These guys (3 freshmen) are playing a lot of minutes. By the end of most games, they are worn out. The guys on the bench really need to step up their game. Vargus, oh my goodness!! What was coach Cal thinking. The Cats need help or they won't even make it to the elite 8 in NCAA tournament.

I would throw the defense on Thompkins in as a Thumbs Up...
Free Throw Shooting would be a definite Thumbs Down for me...
Yes the officiating was horrible...we breathed on Thompkins it was a foul..
The last five minutes of the game I would give a different finger to...but that is just me...too many stupid plays.

I like that UK's defense held Leslie and Thompkins to a COMBINED 14 points.

Officiating in the SEC is laughable. I hear people say all the time that the refs don't determine the outcome of games. Every call factors in the outcome. I don't think refs come into the game with a pre-conceived notion of how they will make calls, but there is no doubt they are swayed by the dynamics of the home crowd, unless they are working a UK home game.
I think it's time to add a 4th ref. Put one on each base line and let two float from the mid-court line to the foul line. That way you eliminate the need for a 50 year old fat guy to run the length of the court. I also it would help if the refs were equiped with ear plugs and mics so they could talk to each other and confir on questionable calls during the flow of the game.

Defense was a thumbs up. Leslie/Thompkins way below avgs.
Energy & Execution in the first half-thumbs up.
Playing not to lose-thumbs down
Bench contribution other than Lamb-thumbs down.
Jerry Tipton needs to be enemy #1. Reporting actual basketball he does bascially nothing. However, when there's a hint of controversy he turns into Columbo. His agenda is similar to him OLD. Sorry, had to get that off my chest.
