I thought KU was lucky to win this one, we don't come close without Harris draining his threes and some defensive adjustments.
This game will be a classic one day!! Kansas played great and so did Kentucky. Exciting things on both end and competitive throughout. Dillingham making 4 threes in a row then a big assist to Reeves was awesome. Dickenson with 20/20 and then the great ally oop from half-court for Kansas. All i can say is GO BIG BLUE!!!
KJ & Hunter can work together in paint? Interior passing, kicking out to open jumpshooters when double&triple-teamed? KJ can hit Free Throws? KU will be VERY HARD to beat by mid January 2024. KU showed 5-7 mins of a glimpse of what they will become by Mid January
Kentucky had this game. They get the defense worked out and the big 3 that are out and you’re looking at a title shot for sure. Very impressed by all four teams.
You was lucky our 3 7-footers were hurt, or waiting for the NCCA to clear them, 5 guards and 2 small forwards almost beat you ...throw in our 7 footers... different outcomes... we'd love to see you in the Big Dance.... they'd be playing then, and have teamwork down pat... the University of Kentucky...are going to be the NCCA CHAMPIONS '24...'25...'26...

He’s averaging 16.8 ( nearly 17) 4 and 4 OFF THE BENCH with half the minutes, to Wagner’s 8-2-2. This shouldn’t even be a conversation, as of now he’s the better guard there’s no way to spin it differently, the only complaint is he should be closing out harder. That’s it.
Kentucky shot 76 shots and 30 free throws!?!? Imagine them shooting close to the 40-50% and at least 70% a FT???? Can’t wait to see how the returning bigs are utilized in Cals offense. Kansas Dajuan a 1ppg player score 23 points 5-6 at the 3. Those clutch buckets at the end of game 8 straight wow. He’s a champion gotta respect it, Hunter did what was expected solid performance. Kansas should remain top 10 all season but the shooting is a problem.
Definitely, Harris was the reason my Hawks won. But UK is already scary with that smaller lineup, and will be able to go big/small when they get their bigs back. great game! If the Cats would have shot 40% from three, they would have won big! Great game!
Good game. When those young Kentucky guards get comfortable, especially Wagner, they’ll be a completely different team. Credit Kansas for weathering the storm and pulling it out.
Congrats to Kansas, But my hat goes out to Kentucky because they got some players that can Stroke it Kentucky shot the ball very well from behind Downtown. Kevin MCCullar had Jr had a triple Double he played good. And Hunter Dickinson played fantastic.
Good game both teams will be deep in tournament when March rolls around. Braun needs to get more Tenacious on the glass and defensing.

Kentucky needed this loss horrible execution at the end of the game only look to tie the game instead of taking the 2 getting a foul with a timeout left
Believe it or not Kentucky needed this loss. Too many poor decision making & bad shot selections in key moments that could’ve won them the game. Go under the screen on Harris was foolish, he killed us from 3 tonight. Cal needs to figure out the rotations quick because certain guys needed to be benched this game for longer periods. This team will bounce back but they still have a lot to learn. Massive performance from Hunter he was too much to handle for the Wildcats. Overall great game 💯

@@carsonc29 Bro..my point is I'm just glad he's doing something productive/steady. Especially "out of the gate." He is here to score. But? I mean what r u expecting? This Season out him? At best it'll be 8-11ppg. If we r lucky!
It’s the first time I’ve seen Kentucky have multiple guards that can shoot the 3 efficiently.!! But unfortunately they have no big man to defend the low post. And it cost them the game against Kansas.
Kansas had an early lead and then started unnecessarily doubling the post, which gave Kentucky shooters confidence. Good game overall. Experience won out.
I don’t understand the emphasis on defense of doing this and leaving yourself so vulnerable on the perimeter. What’s the strategy behind this? I feel like I’ve seen this in the NBA as well where teams will I necessarily double and risk wide open shooters.
Agreed but Kansas fans will kill you in the comment section for making “excuses” that’s why I didn’t even want to bring up the fact we were more talented. They just played smarter & had a point guard who understood the magnitude of each possession
And here come the lamea## excuses. Didn't take long, but it never does. They didn't need any bigs, they just needed one player to not be a massive ballhog gunner.
If you don't hit so many terrible, chucked shots after running a Mickey Mouse hero ball offense, you're the ones getting blown out. More 7 footers means less 3 pointers. Dickinson owns you and Kansas' bench will improve
Kansas with a 2nd W over Kentucky in last 11 Months. 89-85, KU beats UK...11•14•23. Kansas Jayhawks moves to (8-5) All-Time in the November Champions Classic 🏆. (Hunter Dickinson, 27pts/21rebs)
@@AbrahamIsUrFather They 2 big names they shouldnt be ranked as high as they are..Are yall not watching other teams play way better than Kansas or what??
Kentucky was up by 14 and lost.. 8-36fg from their 3 starters.. 32% fg as a team and still almost won.. I don't think Kansas is that good. Neither do I think Kentucky is good.
@glenosborne, of course they wouldn’t, but if it had been Kansas, Duke , n Carolina, big Z would already been approved, but the ncaa hates Ky, always has always will.
Bruh your naming all the blue blood schools basically implying that they get preferential treatment and I agree with you 100%. The fact is though that KY is one of those schools! KY had always gotten preferential treatment, just like the rest of those schools. Gtfoh
Kentucky Wildcats impressed me tonight tho. That young team could've folded after giving up a 14pt, 2ndHalf lead. They hung in there vs a experienced KU team, but a KU team that needs Nov/Dec fig out perfect rotation and how work with Dickinson perfectly. KU should WALK to a FF in 2024 with Hunter Dickinson & DaJuan Harris. Arguably the best PG & Center in country. (No argument here. I KNOW they r...)
Ha, this was the 2011 final four game vs. UCONN all over again, with Reeves as Brandon Knight. Poor coaching,...again. Can't let one player take 17 gd 3's, doof. Reeves was a massive ballhog. Hero ball gets you knocked out in the 1st two rds. of the real tournament. A truly great coach knows that.
Hats off to Kansas for the win. It was a good game for sure. But with that being said Dickerson would not have had the night he did if Kentucky had there three 7 footers playing. Come march uk will be scary and would love to see the matchup again.
Why did he force that shot at the end? They not to pass the ball a lil better for the right play instead of tryna stat pad .. rob should’ve took that last shot in my opinion & I say that because he was super hot earlier in the game
TBH; Kentucky looked good. No moral victory but just Lora of positives. They got beat up on height. That will be rectified after injuries and/or NCAA clearing (personally, I don't blame NCAA for trying to stop the charade of foreign players being amateurs, but NCAA has no power at all). It's only one big game, but I don't see at all how the NBA is salivating on Wagner. Looks like any other average freshman - no great range, no beat you off the dribble to the rack.
I knew that Kentucky would lose the game exactly the way they did: turning the ball over and taking low-IQ, low percentage shots. If Kentucky had a smart PG, the 6 point lead with 3 minutes left would have been insurmountable. That's UK's issue. Too much street ball and low IQ guard play over the past decade Why does Calipari keep recruiting those kinds of players? Insanity
Exactly I am a wildcats fan but it so the same every year with team come in overrated and they play that way defensive rotation was horrible not protecting the three point line same Ole UK"
@@wut-ox4vt 40 minutes last time I checked. Also? That's what probably bothers Cal even more Bill Self KU teams are never 💯 in Nov/Dec. Self doesn't care bout winning till January. Bill Self spends Nov/Dec trying fig out perfect rotation/player depth..
@@wut-ox4vt Welp...then Cal has fig out what kind team he wants 2023-24 Kentucky Wildcats team to be. After y'all lost? All I heard is "these 3 Shaquille O'Neals. Lol..apparently UK has coming soon." So UK can't play way they did last night if they are gonna be dependent on going inside? 😒 🤔 😒 🤔 I honestly think the way UK flowed Tues night? Is how y'all need to roll.
UK is gonna struggle in the paint. Reminds me of when they just had a skinny Nerlens Noel. Their only big player looks too skinny to dominate the paint.
16 of UKs 24 All-Time Ws over KU? Fr 1950-1984. KU has edged out Kentucky so far in the 21stCentury.(9-5) H2H Record. KU has won 6 of their last 8 H2H meetings vs UK, fr 2016-23.
This argument is so tired. do wins in the 20th century just… not count lol? we’ve still beat y’all more than y’all have beat us. That’s all that matters at the end of the day. But you can keep coping with that argument 🤣
Cal took rob out while he was hot and froze him on the bench until late in the game. I get rob can make some bonehead plays at times (esp on defense) but the team looks completely different when hes out there. Meanwhile dj, edwards, and reeves were puttin up bricks and getting full mins. Really messed up robs flow and you could tell in the second half

This team will bounce back but they still have a lot to learn. Massive performance from Hunter he was too much to handle for the Wildcats. Overall great game 💯
Too many turnovers for Kansas in the beginning
In a nutshell ku is a better team
@@ohb7517Kansas was getting outplayed in the beginning because Kentucky looked hungrier & Dilingham was on fire. The experience & coaching is the reason they were triumphant. Cal got outclassed by Self once again 🤦🏿♂️
@@ErickJanesAbsolutely. Kentucky was playing short handed but I don’t want to make excuses because we still had a great chance to win just lost composure at the end. Harris is too seasoned man. His leadership was on full display
Rock chalk
They had a big lead.
ROB DILL A MF BALLER
Jayhawks number one team!!!
UK BAAAAABY!!! This is YOUR YEAR!!!!
Rock Chalk!
Great game!
UK blew this game on poor shot selection in the second half. Great game between two historical programs
Nice to see Tyler Self at 8:36 in the lower left of the screen.
I really like Freshman Jackson for KU.
Love his composure and looks pass first
well KU gonna need him to do some scoring, not just passing...im glad Harris had a good shooting game, but if he is gonna need to be the guy to hit outside shots for KU they gonna have some problems...
@@carsonc29 Well that goes without saying...
"Jackson needs score"
But atm? I'd rather see our prized Freshman dishing dimes than going 1-8 fgs..0 assists.
@@jasonpeters9716 id rather see him score.....dont need him dropping dimes..already have good passers..he needs to be on the receiving end of those assist...this team I fear is gonna have issues hitting outside shots..im glad Harris had a good shooting game, but if KU has to rely on that on a nightly basis, they gonna get upset often this season
@@carsonc29 Bro..my point is I'm just glad he's doing something productive/steady. Especially "out of the gate."
He is here to score.
But? I mean what r u expecting? This Season out him?
At best it'll be 8-11ppg.
If we r lucky!
It’s the first time I’ve seen Kentucky have multiple guards that can shoot the 3 efficiently.!! But unfortunately they have no big man to defend the low post. And it cost them the game against Kansas.
You know how good of an offensive rebounder you have to be to catch a put back like that?
Kansas had an early lead and then started unnecessarily doubling the post, which gave Kentucky shooters confidence. Good game overall. Experience won out.
I don’t understand the emphasis on defense of doing this and leaving yourself so vulnerable on the perimeter. What’s the strategy behind this? I feel like I’ve seen this in the NBA as well where teams will I necessarily double and risk wide open shooters.
Kentucky had to play twice as hard with no bigs available. Probably would have blown Kansas out if they had all their players IMO
Thats not ridiculous to say
Agreed but Kansas fans will kill you in the comment section for making “excuses” that’s why I didn’t even want to bring up the fact we were more talented. They just played smarter & had a point guard who understood the magnitude of each possession
And here come the lamea## excuses. Didn't take long, but it never does. They didn't need any bigs, they just needed one player to not be a massive ballhog gunner.
If you don't hit so many terrible, chucked shots after running a Mickey Mouse hero ball offense, you're the ones getting blown out.
More 7 footers means less 3 pointers. Dickinson owns you and Kansas' bench will improve
@@dubcity2345well technically the game would have slowed down for Kentucky. It was too their advantage they played fast and loose.
Thank god we got our on the three

Rockchalk everyone!!!!
GAME OVER
Kansas with a 2nd W over Kentucky in last 11 Months.
89-85, KU beats UK...11•14•23.
Kansas Jayhawks moves to (8-5) All-Time in the November Champions Classic 🏆.
(Hunter Dickinson, 27pts/21rebs)
Rockchalk baby 👏🏽
We're better than #17. Go CATS. NCAA refused to approve one of our THREE 7 footers before the game.
Yeah yall like 10th because Kansas is like 9th not number 1..They look slow and stagnant..Both teams looked Mid
@@prepre1976kentucky looked great given they only played 8 players and had no centers
@@prepre1976 neither team is "mid"....smh
@@AbrahamIsUrFather They 2 big names they shouldnt be ranked as high as they are..Are yall not watching other teams play way better than Kansas or what??
Thanks Kansas for locking my parlay 🎉
Kansas totally got preseason OVER RANKED #1 !!! Duke should be the seasons pre-ranked #1 but hey, it will be fun taking it from Kansas!!!!
Self is Self... Kansas is Kansas.... #1 is #1....!!!
And Duke wouldn't be #1 now because they lost a game at home against Arizona.
Didn’t they loose to Tennessee ? They are gonna be 🗑️ until Cooper flag plays next year
Man... Start Rob!
why didn’t cal keep rob dillingham in!???!!??
Kentucky was up by 14 and lost.. 8-36fg from their 3 starters.. 32% fg as a team and still almost won.. I don't think Kansas is that good. Neither do I think Kentucky is good.
🗑️
Hunter Dickinson is a weird dude
What is wrong with the head coach not starting rob dillingham?
@glenosborne, of course they wouldn’t, but if it had been Kansas, Duke , n Carolina, big Z would already been approved, but the ncaa hates Ky, always has always will.
Bruh your naming all the blue blood schools basically implying that they get preferential treatment and I agree with you 100%. The fact is though that KY is one of those schools! KY had always gotten preferential treatment, just like the rest of those schools. Gtfoh
🎻🎻🎻
Dickinson hyped playing against 6’8” dudes. Wait till the bigs are healthy
Kensucky
Kentucky Wildcats impressed me tonight tho.
That young team could've folded after giving up a 14pt, 2ndHalf lead.
They hung in there vs a experienced KU team, but a KU team that needs Nov/Dec fig out perfect rotation and how work with Dickinson perfectly.
KU should WALK to a FF in 2024 with Hunter Dickinson & DaJuan Harris.
Arguably the best PG & Center in country.
(No argument here. I KNOW they r...)
R.J Davis and Armando Bacot >
@@jeremiahartacho Bacot? The big Center who lost KU when KU only had 1 Bigman when KU beat UNC for 22 National Title?
@@jeremiahartacho Harris was the PG and KJ Adams came off bench beat those 2
Ha, this was the 2011 final four game vs. UCONN all over again, with Reeves as Brandon Knight. Poor coaching,...again. Can't let one player take 17 gd 3's, doof. Reeves was a massive ballhog. Hero ball gets you knocked out in the 1st two rds. of the real tournament. A truly great coach knows that.
Absolutely, I thought Shepherd needed the ball.
Rob 🥶
Hats off to Kansas for the win. It was a good game for sure. But with that being said Dickerson would not have had the night he did if Kentucky had there three 7 footers playing. Come march uk will be scary and would love to see the matchup again.
They have height but do they got skills
dickerson is the best center in the country. stop making excuses bro it’s lame
@@will-zj5gqit's not an excuse, we don't have any size. We'll see who goes further in the tournament.
@@ohb7517hell yes. Two can handle like guards and shoot 3s.
@@26michaeluk excuses.
Does Dickinson have something goin on? Dude moves different
Why did he force that shot at the end? They not to pass the ball a lil better for the right play instead of tryna stat pad .. rob should’ve took that last shot in my opinion & I say that because he was super hot earlier in the game
Kentucky looks like they have guys that don’t want to take the last shot at the end.
why would cal pull rob out of the game he was torching them
Jesus loves you
TBH; Kentucky looked good. No moral victory but just Lora of positives. They got beat up on height. That will be rectified after injuries and/or NCAA clearing (personally, I don't blame NCAA for trying to stop the charade of foreign players being amateurs, but NCAA has no power at all). It's only one big game, but I don't see at all how the NBA is salivating on Wagner. Looks like any other average freshman - no great range, no beat you off the dribble to the rack.
I knew that Kentucky would lose the game exactly the way they did: turning the ball over and taking low-IQ, low percentage shots. If Kentucky had a smart PG, the 6 point lead with 3 minutes left would have been insurmountable. That's UK's issue. Too much street ball and low IQ guard play over the past decade
Why does Calipari keep recruiting those kinds of players? Insanity
Okay
Kentucky had less turnovers buddy
@@matthew-tz1mk That's an irrelevant statistic. It's about the timing of turnovers and whether they lead to points.
Exactly I am a wildcats fan but it so the same every year with team come in overrated and they play that way defensive rotation was horrible not protecting the three point line same Ole UK"
Maxey & Shai GA are arguably the two best point guards in NBA and both high IQ players.
HD's vulgar hand gestures isnt going to fly in the NBA.
Dillingham is nba ready 😢
Kansas beat UK 65-61, exactly 6yrs ago in same Champions Classic.

UK is gonna struggle in the paint. Reminds me of when they just had a skinny Nerlens Noel. Their only big player looks too skinny to dominate the paint.
Wait til them centers come back
@@HotTakesandMistakes.sportsandm Better hope so. They are mighty soft in the paint.
16 of UKs 24 All-Time Ws over KU?

This argument is so tired. do wins in the 20th century just… not count lol? we’ve still beat y’all more than y’all have beat us. That’s all that matters at the end of the day. But you can keep coping with that argument 🤣
@@basementfridge840cope harder
Cal took rob out while he was hot and froze him on the bench until late in the game. I get rob can make some bonehead plays at times (esp on defense) but the team looks completely different when hes out there. Meanwhile dj, edwards, and reeves were puttin up bricks and getting full mins. Really messed up robs flow and you could tell in the second half
Its called over recruiting
That dude adams has a turtle 🐢 neck!
Why would he pull that with 6 left on the board 😭😭😭😭
Cant wait to beat them in March ..Cats going win num 9😊
Don't hold your breath..Jayhawks chemistry and potential is at a higher level than everyone. Trust me, you don't wanna see us in March buddy💯
