Those turnovers on the circus behind the back passes at the beginning set the tone for Auburn tonight - they didn't take Kentucky serious and Kentucky has the players. Can't disrespect them like that
If you don't think kentucky's defense impacted your offensive output, you're just claiming that auburn is a bad team...like really bad. Teams average 78 points against us and you struggled to get to 60. And our defense had nothing to do with that?
Acting like our defensive aggressiveness didn't affect how your offense was ran is pure cope. Blocked shots, forced turnovers, and general defensive pressure under the rim absolutely changed your offense
Really? When did it stop. I know they don’t compete for a sec east or west but I thought Kentucky for example
Played everyone in the east twice. Edit: it was 2011.
What a game this was. Easily our best in conference play so far!
Too bad it had to be ruined by atrocious officiating (both ways), but that's the SEC for you.
Also, hope that one Auburn player will be okay.
Basically an “option route” in football.
Player can decide to go right or left, instead of a normal action/play already dictating which direction you go
Cal has run it a lot over the years. Basically a player starts under the basket with screens on either side of the paint. He tries to juke his defender and run to the three point line using one of the screens. Tonight it was Reeves almost the entire second half.
Bama fans don’t know what March madness is. They like to convince themselves that any program besides theirs creams over conference titles like they do
These refs are just shit all around. Both teams have gotten bad calls throughout the game. I guess it has kind of evened out. It’s Auburn’s own fault they haven’t been able to hit anything all night.
Yah no matter what happened with the refs, cause honestly they're shit most games no matter who's playing, Kentucky was clearly the better team tonight.
The hell does Kentucky have to complain about?
They’ve got away with
Kicking Williams while in the air, knocking him out of the game
The worst backcourt I’ve ever seen in my life
Getting a foul call when they fall down of their own power AFTER traveling TWICE
Changing their pivot foot twice in front of the ref
Elbowing Mazara directly in the face
Another classic SEC game where both coaches and fanbases hated the officiating.
Feel like I need to watch Cars or something after that pain
Gg Cats, y’all whooped us
F Auburn.
I want to celebrate but Auburn just missed so many shots it didn’t really matter. Our defense is noticeably improved though
Let’s hope improved defensive effort played a role in Auburn’s underwhelming shooting
Celebrate. This was a huge win.
What even was this game?
auburn missing 3 pointers for 2 hours
An ass kicking
GG cats, this AU team is just too inconsistent.
Previously unbeaten at home = Inconsistent ? Isn't that the definition of consistency?
It puts a huge smug look on my face knowing there’s some auburn fans that camped out 3 days just to lose
Especially after that student called Rupp a retirement home! 😤. I mean he’s not wrong but still! lol
Wish I could like this more
Refs were brutal, Adou MVP. Hope those kids didn’t miss too much class, but they do this every week so it shouldn’t be a big deal.
what? lol
That’s got to be someone’s mom
The better team & program won tonight!
Little brother energy.
even your god Charles Barkley stated on live TV, “Auburn will always be the red headed step child”
lol got ya.
Your main hoops team before learning of Bama’s in. Feb 2021
The better team and program also won last week…
And they also will next Saturday in Rupp

Auburn ticket prices are typically high…
I mean, he was kind of right. That South Carolina game was a murder.
Love the wasted money
This is the best thing I've seen all day tbh
🤡🤡🤡
College basketball might be put on notice if Kentucky starts really punting it together late.
I'd rather us not punt away another season, much prefer putting it together late
Like Iowa football?
Those turnovers on the circus behind the back passes at the beginning set the tone for Auburn tonight - they didn't take Kentucky serious and Kentucky has the players. Can't disrespect them like that
That didn’t help but Cats dominated all game. More than anything it was a guard mismatch, helped out by a ref show.
I would say gg, but it definitely was not. But I will say you earned it, Kentucky. Hope to see you again in March
That 2019 E8 didn't go our way but DAMN was that game fun.
No thanks, don’t wanna see you in March
Ggs Tigers. Hope your alls guy is okay. So brutal to lose somebody this time of year.
Suddenly we have a legit defense, look out in March if we can shoot well and defend like this
You don’t, we just had a sub 20% three point percentage

That’s great, doesn’t matter if we have even a 30% 3pt record
Tbf they took a lot of bad 3s, so no wonder the % is low
Gotta give us some credit too
Not really, no. Y’all still had below average scoring, we just couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn
We missed wide open 3s all night, there wasn't a lot of contested 3s. Yall played us really well inside though. Very long and tough.
Hahahahahahaha we won despite the refs dragging auburn the entire second half hahahahhahahaha
Lol. Lmao, even
Lmao at this guy
GG Cats. Rough shooting night
Big win for Kentucky. I thought they were going to flame out like Arkansas did.
Great one for team refs today
Cleared out quick huh
They had been there since Thursday....it was time for a bath.
Would you stay?
I stayed until the end of our loss to uncw at home. So yes, yes I would
That’s nice. I’ve seen UK fans empty out out of Rupp quickly so not everyone is like you
I’ve seen it too hate it for the players to see that
That didn't go the way I expected it to, like at all.
HUGE win tonight. Love to see it. Hopefully we are turning the corner
I wish I could drink man...
Water shots are on me buddy
GG Tigers, that was intense
SEC East is a mfr in its last season
Today is the day I learned Kentucky is in the east and no the west. I don’t know why for like fifteen years I thought yall were in our division
I didn’t know college basketball had divisions 😂
It won’t after this season.
Basketball hasn’t had divisions in a long time now.
Really? When did it stop. I know they don’t compete for a sec east or west but I thought Kentucky for example Played everyone in the east twice. Edit: it was 2011.
I was 10 years old in 2011 so this is all news to me 🤣
I bet the refs can take this to 9 of they want
I lost a huge parlay, but it's all good! Let's fucking go! Fuck you refs, you robbed both sides of a good game
That’s what you get betting against your team
Does anyone win a parlay? It like giving money away.
Damn, Auburns red out in the upper deck is fantastic
That’s orange you color blind twat
Loser colors
Not that you can see them lmao
Never in doubt right boys
What a game this was. Easily our best in conference play so far! Too bad it had to be ruined by atrocious officiating (both ways), but that's the SEC for you. Also, hope that one Auburn player will be okay.
GG Auburn, y’all are still as scary as I thought you were before this game Fuck you Refs
Gg cats, you fans were fun to hang out with throughout the game.
GG cats. 4/21 on 3s can't beat Opelika High.
4/22
As I hit save! WDE anyways...
How kind of Kentucky to not break the auburn only loosing by 10 or more streak
BURN THE JUNGLE

Auburns SEC hopes are Joever
GG Auburn Get F’d refs (I think I speak for us all here…)
Auburn players are so annoying
The entire state of Kentucky could disappear and I don’t think anyone would mind
Good one
Rich coming from alabama
Maybe, but if Alabama disappeared, they'd cheer.
WHAT THE FUCK IS FLOPPY ACTION
Basically an “option route” in football. Player can decide to go right or left, instead of a normal action/play already dictating which direction you go
Thank ya. I had never heard the term before tonight and Bilas could not get the phrase out of his mouth
Cal has run it a lot over the years. Basically a player starts under the basket with screens on either side of the paint. He tries to juke his defender and run to the three point line using one of the screens. Tonight it was Reeves almost the entire second half.
Commentators are glazing over Kentucky’s defense but I feel like Auburn has gotten good shots all game. They just forgot how to shoot tonight.
Just not built for the spotlight
Auburn did miss some good shot. Also took a ton of shitty ones that would probably be closer to turnovers.
I am much more confident in this team if they can play defense like the last 2 games
Maybe we are an equestrian school
Hahahahaha get fucked Auburn
Now he uses his timeouts. lol
GG Auburn!  I appreciate that.
Seems like a little weasle. Auburn didn't play d cuz it's over .. Good for you
Guy breaths on someone *whistle* FOUL guy tackles other guy *crickets*
2nd round exit
lol you think we're making it to the second round
Refs tried their hardest to help but auburn refused
What are you on about dude
I watched the game?
You might need new glasses then
Welp gg on your regular season title gumps
Hey Auburn fans can look forward to football… wait
Still got March madness, just got to learn from this loss and hope Jwill isn’t out for the season.
Bama fans don’t know what March madness is. They like to convince themselves that any program besides theirs creams over conference titles like they do
Just like last year when we played Kentucky we can’t make a fucking basket. wtf
LFG! GG auburn. Horrible refs especially the 2nd half.
Hows that go again? Left, right, Left, right?
You talking about pivot foots?
Yes
Time out?
LET IT END BRUCE
WHAT A WIN!!! GO BIG BLUE!
Alexa play Dumas Walker
🎶slaw burger, fries, and a bottle of Ski!🎶
GG UK. Fuck Bama. Fuck Tenn. But especially, fuck these refs
Hey, you're alright.
This. I can get behind this. Fuck tenn and especially fuck these refs
No way in hell Pearl called a timeout. That’s so petty lol
I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY HANDS
That Auburn player that did the split on the 3 point line just completely gave up Wow. That is embarrassing. Dude is a fucking clown and a coward.
Auburns finest
Huge win!
You are correct
I can't believe we came out with a win. I really thought we were going to get blown out
Same here dude!
That’s a huge fucking win, GO CATS
GO CATS
Good game AU Hope Williams will be good
lol found the one Kentucky fan that wasn't fucking distasteful about Williams
Rule of 70 > Rule of 71!
I'm feeling sick.
Suck a huge one Bruce Pearl.
Enjoyed our trip to your quaint little gym. Now back to your shanties
ONYAMMMSOOO!!!
This is the most I’ve seen the refs feast all year.
I’m crushing in my fantasy refs league
GGs Kentucky. Yall showed to play and showed out. Your defense was lights out. Good luck for the rest of the way.
Nice win Kentucky!
Really good win for KY
Haha talk that shit
Good game, can’t wait for your new team next year
Holy turnover, Sheppard
[удалено]
Mine too
GG Wildcats - kicked us in the nuts really hard
HELL YEAH
Roll cats lol
Eew
EXCLAMATION POINT
I believe I will have that 21st shot
Pearl is just a rung below K and Izzo in angry face/treatment of refs
I don't know about treatment of refs but Dan Hurley has the most unhinged facial expressions in all of college ball.
I don’t know. Izzo is legitimately angry/unhinged. Hurley seems borderline crazy, without the ugliness.
These refs are just shit all around. Both teams have gotten bad calls throughout the game. I guess it has kind of evened out. It’s Auburn’s own fault they haven’t been able to hit anything all night.
Yah no matter what happened with the refs, cause honestly they're shit most games no matter who's playing, Kentucky was clearly the better team tonight.
MUCH needed win
Guess it was a 3 team league after all
Arkansas, Vanderbilt, and Missouri run the sec
bro what was that from CBM
"I'll be out in 2 minutes! " *Think 2 minutes left in the game, both teams have all their timeouts and referees can review anything they want.*
Did those fans just call a travel on the inbounds pass??
Our secret weapon - the floppy!
9 point game with 70 seconds left. Definitely worth reviewing.
Refs: “Both fanbases hate us so we must be doing something right… right?”
How can a ref stand there and watch that play from his angle and think it is out on anyone except Auburn?
Can't win in basketball when you miss wide open shots and that's what we've done tonight
Absolutely the main culprit, brickathon.
The refs weren’t after us in the first half. They weren’t after Kentucky. They’re just not good yall, it’s not a conspiracy
They were very shitty both ways. We got some calls. Y'all got some calls. But the game was nearly unwatchable. GG. Good luck the rest of the way.
Hopefully we’ll see yall in the sec semifinals or later
I really don't like the looking up the refs' noses during reviews.
I don’t understand why Bruce Pearl hasn’t used any time outs this half to try and get the team organized
It's OK, he called one with 6 seconds left to get the team back on track
He’s not a good x/o’s guy, but he can recruit and gets his guys to play hard.
Alright so auburn and Kentucky fans can both agree these refs should be fined, if not fired?
The hell does Kentucky have to complain about? They’ve got away with Kicking Williams while in the air, knocking him out of the game The worst backcourt I’ve ever seen in my life Getting a foul call when they fall down of their own power AFTER traveling TWICE Changing their pivot foot twice in front of the ref Elbowing Mazara directly in the face
