Big test and no matter if it is 2-0, 1-1, or 0-2 for these two road trips, from what I've seen from Coach Pope, big data coming from the next couple of games for the coaching staff to digest and dissect. Go Big Blue!!
Two true tests this coming week....Clemson then Gonzaga. Hopefully this team will stay focused and not overlook anyone. If they do that, I think they can go far. Go Big Blue!!
It’s hard to say what has been the most surprising because everything has been so great from otega to Lamont and everyone else exceeding expectations but honestly the most surprising thing for me is how good the defense is. Now much of that translates to how good the individual players have been like the two I mentioned and Jaxson and Amari but everyone talked about the offense coming in and the defense has seemed to be pretty electric as well.
I don't understand why people are so surprised by this. THREE DPOY on this team with Amari winning it THREE years in a ROW! He charts out to the best defensive player in the country right now. The team has size, quickness and experience. Everything you need
First time since 11-29-1997 that Kentucky and Clemson play on a court in Men's Basketball. UK owns a 12-4 series advantage over Clemson in a series that dates back to 2-16-1922. UK won the first meeting 38-14 and won the last meeting 76-61. Go Big Blue.
I do not blame Calipari for the scheduling that he did. He did not want to go to a early season tournament and get a couple losses with his teams being so young
Trying to predict a game based on betting spread is foolish at best. Betting spread is an emotional gauge that sways depending on fan bases, nothing more, nothing less. It has nothing to do with the actual realities of either team.
@@terryrunion4282 spreads have nothing to do with actual probability. Nice try though. It is people opinions based on their own guesses. There is a reason there is no pattern to beating or losing to spreads and no pattern to original pre-bet spreads being correct. You just keep losing money on emotion though.

Kentucky hired the best coach for this job... Period!
I completely agree
I love our Coach Pope❤
Has never won any game in the NCAA Big Dance…
Especially after watching Hurley be a jack asss while losing three in a row, and Baylor looking awful
@@senorcougar7857 Yet. It starts somewhere.....look at Dan Hurley in the NCAA Tournament prior to the last two seasons.
We are gonna get challenged this week and I’m ready for the results good or bad!!!! BBN
Me too! I'm excited to see how we do at a true road game.
Fighting kentucky
Best thing about this team as we've said. They aren't scared, bring it!
We're with Pope!
Big week for Kentucky. Let's see what they are made of!

Number 4 in the country
C.A.T.S. CATS CATS CATS 💙💙💙💙
GO BIG BLUE
Our guy Torres is creepin up on 50k..BOOOOM
@EtotheFnD My guy! Was thinking today, goal is 50k by 2025. Can we make it happen 🤔🤔
@AaronTorres without a doubt buddy...👊
@@AaronTorres before 01/25/2025 50.000 subs. Sorry about UCONN bad refs. Thanks and love from Peru
I am happy with the way my Kentucky Wildcats are playing, and the way Coach Pope is leading them.
This is going to be the biggest week of the year for Kentucky. If they can get both of these... that will set them up for a 1-3 seed come march
what about that week when we play Auburn and Tennessee?
Definitely not..with the sec stacked there will be plenty of chances to build the resume

@Syrin23 For me it's because Pope had less than a full offseason to put this team together. And they've meshed beautifully.
@@ngarcia103 Shows the value of having experienced players instead of raw freshmen who played AAU style ball
This could be a big game for robinson almanor brea oweh
same as it has been...we played Duke away from home
What teams should learn from last game..... don't piss KY players off! They WILL make you pay for it.

Kentucky by 12+
We should be able to go on the road and beat Clemson ! LETS GO ! BBN
Thanks A-train Torres UK 86 75. Kenpom says we loose while another site Bart antylitics says we win.
Let's take it to their houses Battle Cats
Kentucky 85. Clemson 77
82-79 Cats.
Jaxon Robinson 5-3’s. 1 FT. =16pts
Love the specificity and reasonable optimism.
UK 81-70
UK 92 Clemson 74
Smash the over!
Im sure there will be an opening for a Blue Blood team for Maui next year
Marquette at Iowa State on Wednesday as well…
I do not blame Calipari for the scheduling that he did. He did not want to go to a early season tournament and get a couple losses with his teams being so young
I added up what i seen from uks players last year and made this conclusion. Before Christmas this team would receive 1st place votes
I know super early but is mark pope in your opinion a top 10-15 coach in your eyes and if so where on the list does he fall
Pope falls at #4
1 easy, he is smart, nice, had Larry Bird and George Karl. Listen to his post game speeches. Pitino also was his coach.
Close One I think 🤔
UK 82 Clemson 74
How's it going johngetsmoney😅 go on play that broken record so we can laugh at you again😂

Just say you don't understand how spreads work.

Go Clemson…
Lose big
The Arkansas fan has weighed in
@@Syrin23 The #36 ranked Arkansas
Love UK but way over rated at number 4
I agree. This week will be the truth teller. If they can get both of these games, then they deserve that 4.
Kenpom disagrees with you
What makes us overrated have you watched other teams UK & Auburn look the best to me because GROWN MEN WIN
These road games will be great to test this teams’ perseverance. Checked a lot of boxes, just more to explore. Go Cats
