Title game =\= a Sweet 16 matchup against a team they clearly outmatched.

Would you suggest that every team would play as hard against Hampton when up double digits as they do in a close game with say Duke?

I think this thread proves otherwise. I mean, there are direct quotes from UK players.

Wouldn't have mattered, but WVU is fricking dumb to be talking shite knowing they were going to get their shite pushed in. Seriously, why even go there?

UK didn't bring their subs to their subs in until the last minute of the game even after being up 35+...

It actually seemed like they supported the content of the WVU player's trash talking. They're admitting to playing harder last night, which means they haven't been putting that same effort in for other games (which they obviously didn't need). That is what the WVU player said (minus the losing part).


I disagree. He suggested they don't play as hard as West Virginia and guaranteed a win as a result. They'd played hard enough to be undefeated when he made those comments.

What team do you know puts in the same effort in every single game they play no matter the quality of opponent?

Right, it'll be there no matter what.

Is there really a "Max" motivation level?
Yes, of course.

Of course they're motivated to go undefeated, doesn't mean that something like another team shite talking them can't still kick it up another level.
Well, I think it does mean exactly that, I don't think you can kick it up another level at this point. Maybe if it were game 3 of the regular season.

Your logic is killing me right now
Funny, coming from someone who thinks a team won't try its hardest at this stage of the season unless some random guy says he'll beat your team. How's that for logic?

A loss is a loss tho. Because cal didn't take his foot off gas doesnt mean a lack of effort would have been thete anyway.

A 10 point loss ia same as what they got

Disagree. If you're good enough to get to a 30-40 point lead, then you're good enough to take your foot off the pedal. It's called sportsmanship.

So you actually at least kinda agree with the WVU kid when he said they don't play hard.

So you don't worry about your team that you admit just plays hard enough to win? You can at least understand why this is all not making tons of sense right now to me, I'd hope.

And UK likely will because of the quality of opponent.

I think you're having a hard time keeping up.

No, what makes you think they did?

You don't think they could have beat WVU by 40 anyway? Really?

So bizarre. You admit your team doesn't always play hard, takes their foot off the gas, but aren't one bit worried about that, but I'm having trouble keeping up. Hilarious.

So if before next game, a guy says the same thing, won't they be extra motivated? NOw they won't? What?

Getting in the head doesn't mean your team has to go out and shite the bed.

UK should be focused on winning the NC despite what someone on the opposing team says before a game and if they aren't that is a major flaw.

not sure why you guys, all of a sudden, don't think UK is that great that they can't beat a team who can't shoot by a ton of points.

Seems like the only teams it's a flaw for is the team that runs it's mouth. WVU isn't the first team to do so this season.

So they can't be focused on winning it all while getting a little extra push from other players hating on their play?

Poor kids can't even multitask apparently.

this is so retarded and your arse is so chapped

this is coming from an outside fan's perspective fyi

the team with the flaw is WVU for giving Cal and UK some extra pep in their step. Pretty dumb move
