the next level with dimer Pro Kentucky taking on Ohio State on Saturday at Madison Square Gard there’s been a lot of college games at MSG lately and uh we’ve seen some entertaining ones hopefully this is one of another in that line Mark Pope’s team 10 and one on the season some Marquee victories over Duke and Gonzaga coming off the Rivalry win over Louisville all things look good for Kentucky right now you can’t say the same for Ohio State who has been uh kind of avalanching downward in the last three weeks they are two and three in their last five games two blowout losses and when I say blowout it’s generous they were down like 50 to 17 at half to Maryland and then they lost by 40 to Auburn last week uh in the middle of this Aaron Bradshaw was under investigation for a domestic incident and hasn’t been playing Mei Johnson your former guard has uh taken a leave of absence from the program I don’t know what’s going on there we obviously have thoughts and prayers with Mei for uh if something serious is going on personally but uh bottom line Ohio State’s down two starters from what they started the season with and things are snowballing they’ve got some young options that look pretty good but the results haven’t backed that up where is this Ohio State team at right now in your mind in danger of having the season bottom out like really in danger of things just going completely South I think this is the first time that people are really starting to wonder if Jake dor was the right guy you had the Texas win early in the season and obviously the way last year closed you’re like okay like yeah this this is good A&M loss is fine but then you lose to pit in overtime at the buzzer and then the blowout losses to Maryland and Auburn people are starting to to like really get some negative Vibes around this program in the direction that it’s heading because of those two blowout losses it’s one thing to have those vibes when you have the Personnel to be able to kind of get things back on track but as you mentioned being down Mei Johnson being down Aaron Bradshaw being down really any viable big man makes it virtually impossible to do that Marilyn dominated them in the paint forced a ton of turnovers Auburn dominated them in the paint dominated them everywhere quite FR quite frankly like this Ohio State team does not have size anymore does not have depth and Now does not have one of your better perimeter players M Johnson like I this thing’s in danger of Kansas State we’re like we’ve all like Kansas State’s oh you paid all that money and everyone sucks everyone doesn’t seem locked in I think Ohio State’s kind of in the same the same boat same vulnerability of having things just completely unravel yeah yeah it’s scary so for Kentucky fans watching this that don’t know Jake debler is Ohio State’s head coach first year head coach he was on Chris Holman’s staff the last two years and he was named the interim head coach when they fired Holman in February last year Ohio State immediately went from like a a very bad three-point shooting team to like the best three-point shooting team in the country for the final month yeah and everybody gave debler all the credit for that instead of realizing it was shot making luck uh they hired him this off season he his first move was to bring back Mei Johnson who played at Ohio State years ago and was part of some bad teams in Ohio State uh and it just in general the whole vibe of this has been very off and iffy the issues for Ohio State the last couple years have never been Talent they’ve had lottery picks they’ve had uh like Malachi Brandon Bryce sensah they’ve had great players come in I even think Bruce Thorton and Ry Gil are very talented players um this issue is not Talent this year here John Mobley shooting like 53% from three is a freshman Thornton’s still there Devin Royal has emerged it’s just it doesn’t feel right something just is a sour taste when you watch this team whether it’s effort whether it’s togetherness cohesiveness I don’t know but uh you don’t lose like the bottom line you don’t lose a half 50 to 17 if things are fine like it’s just not that’s not possible and Ohio State keeps redefining the impossible um I made this joke on Friday on the sleepers podcast but I love the comp so I’m going to do it again for this game uh hiring Jake debler is like being at a restaurant and like ordering like a Pepsi and they bring it out you take a sip and it’s flat and you’re like ah and then the waitress comes back you’re like hey this Pepsi was flat can I get a Pepsi and the waitress is just like isn’t it flat and you’re like yeah I’ll take a Pepsi like you just exchanged one of what was the problem for another part of the problem right like debler was on the staffs that made Ohio State bottom out he recruited the players and then his first moves were to bring back the players he recruited and retain guys and it’s it’s like watching the same horror movie again on a flip Kentucky Universe alternate universe here it would have been like running Cal out to hire Orlando Antigua like what’s the point of this right and I think Ohio State’s got to come to terms with that I think their fan base has come to terms with it the the report was the Val perzo game this past Tuesday was the second lowest attended Ohio State home game in like decades so yeah you know that’s sort of where this program is at I guess the question is is there anything profile wise that they can do to hang in this game with Kentucky because you know Ohio state has been a really good three-point shooting team they’ve been a really good three-point defense and Mark Pope’s out here saying his team needs to shoot more threes the analytics say this is going to be close game like is there anything team profile wise that jumps out that makes you think Ohio state has some staying power in this matchup the only thing it’s a very narrow needle to thread is the fact that Kentucky for the most part is not going to try to bludgeon you inside particularly with Mark po putting the emphasis now on the perimeter so your lack of size is not going to get totally exposed if you are Ohio State I think it could be a huge game for Mario Williams see what happens there but the the needle is that that’s not an issue and then you make more threes than Kentucky does yeah okay it’s and it’s it’s not I hate to make you like well make more shots than them but that is kind of like your only your only thing your only chance is to outperform Kentucky I think Kentucky does the best at yeah which like I guess if you’re making the argument I think Ohio State’s semi comfortable with that but I don’t know the flip side for me like I’m I’m not trying to talk anyone into Ohio State I think this is going to bottom out but to me like they are 11th in the country in three-point shooting percentage they are 22nd in the country in three-point percentage defense that is such a good split and you’re seven and four with blowout losses mixed in like that you know who’s 12th in three-point defense you know who’s 12th and three-point defense who is it Kentucky Kentucky yeah right but I guess like sometimes shooting especially in the first month like you expect regression right it’s like the flip of Ohio State last season they couldn’t make a shot then they made it the final month maybe the inverse is coming this year and it would just terrify me that the results don’t back up how good of the shooting splits are for Ohio State at least with Kentucky it’s like our percentages are great we’re winning the games Ohio State it’s very ominous that that’s not happening uh who’s the best guard in this game Jackson Robinson actually sorry it’s Lamont Butler fresh off of his historic performance no I think it’s Jackson Robinson you wouldn’t take Bruce Thornton first in a draft if you were kuy’s coach I think Bruce Thorton is a very very good player he has not been a part of winning teams to the point where I would take him over either Jackson Robinson or Leon Butler fair fair to question the intangibles there for sure um yeah and if you’re not buying Bruce thoron having an advantage in the back court like I I think Kentucky has the better Wings better bigs very clearly in this game yeah uh is this the match up between the two best Shooters in the country John Mobley and Kobe Brea both historically efficient starts could be I hadn’t really thought of that but could be yeah neither of them does do a ton else but could be I’m intrigued by that I uh it’s try tweeted this out but it’s it’s handshake line season by Mark pop maybe I uh he little little handshake hug with John Moy for the Kobe BR role at some point especially given the Vibes on Ohio State right now I think moob would be more apt to listen just saying there was I think it was cart who made this point but the only argument I would buy at all for Ohio State is that losing Mei and Aaron Bradshaw is actually a good thing for this team um because Devin Royal has been Sensational he’s a breakout sophomore that can kind of do everything Wing type I do think that’s a scary matchup because you probably put Andrew Carr on him and yeah I don’t know Deon Royal can do some things John Moy though 30 for 56 from three he’s just one of the most pure shooters true freshman shooting guard and uh I don’t think he has an NBA future necessarily but if he’s going to shoot like this he’s got quite a big portal bag future in front of him somewhere so yeah interesting not no NBA this year the only thing with like missing Bradshaw is that there’s nobody behind him there’s no size yeah for Ohio State without him and that that’s from the issue you’re running out Shawn Stewart at Center and he is showing all the reasons why he couldn’t consistently crack the rotation at Duke yeah uh one note quickly the Kentucky bigs mark Pope has been talking about Amari Williams a lot of stuff came out we did a short on it they’re they’re cutting film of his body language Brandon Garrison played more minutes than him in ky’s last game uh do you trust Amari Williams right now because to me if you get good Amari Williams in this game he dominates this is a game to get his confidence back for that reason so I I think they’re gonna have him on a relatively short leash but I think there’s a chance that this is a bigar Williams game yeah okay all right dimer Pro are predictive analytic model is uh our partner for all things college basketball this season promo code

from the sportsbooks yet so diers Pros Hub is not out yet but it’s t back in Friday night to see exactly what they predict for this game for now we’ll use the cpom line cpom likes Kentucky 83-78 fivepoint win what do you think the final score is here Kentucky by 25 yeah like I I don’t think this is close and it’s probably a game that gets up to 35 and goes back down the 25 it’s going to follow I think a similar track to some of those blowout losses for Ohio State KY is just so much better and Ohio State this is where I think people are like yeah this is this is done this is cooked that’s where I’m at that as well we’ve seen Ohio State have huge slides in January the last couple years this just might be a couple weeks early uh the only thing that scares me is I think the public and everyone’s going to agree with us and there is a spot conversation about like well Kentucky off the Rivalry win Ohio State back against the wall it’s it’s a little bit of a like too obvious spot but all indications to me point that Kentucky should win this by at least 15 points so several teams have backs against the wall cuz they stink Ohio State may just stink that’s a very good point we’ll
