coachacola Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Game starts at 5pm. https://lamarcardinals.com/news/2019/11/23/mens-basketball-lu-set-to-face-no-9-kentucky.aspx Kentucky only beat Mt Saint Mary’s by 20 on Friday. They beat Utah Valley by 8. But with their talent they could easily have a break out game tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezer Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Yes anything from a Lamar upset to a forty point beat down of LU is possible tonight. I'm hoping for a similar game to what Utah Valley had with them. Utah Valley was hot from three point range against Kentucky and shot poorly against LU.

coachacola Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 Buster has made some monster threes but he’s been about the only bright spot on offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geezer Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I didn't get to see or listen to hardly any of the game today, but from what I did catch of the first half, LU had one of those draught periods through the middle of the half where Kentucky went on about a 20 -2 run over a five or six minute time span. That was a hole that was too deep for an inexperienced team to come back from. Neither Muoka or Nickerson scored and I will guess that had to do with the defense of Kentucky. Looking at the Box Score, Kentucky used 11 players tonight compared with only seven or eight available in their game with Utah Valley. At least one or two of them would have had a lot of playing time against UVU had they been available from what I heard on that broadcast. A twenty five point loss is not what I hoped for, but it is still better than it might have been. Hopefully the Cards can learn from this and have another really good game at UAB.

WildCard Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 If this were 1985 I'd be disappointed in the margin. If 2019 I'm encouraged by it. Just look at the women's score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
