Dawson Baker was with KY in the post game press conference and he was asked what caused the team to play so much better in the second half and he specifically said that Dallin Hall hyped up the team at halftime and challenged everyone to step it up.

That Houston loss had to be really tough for the players. To think they lost to

Starting five came out flat and scared. Set the tone. Good learning experience

You are way over thinking it. I bet the team is already moved on

You’re probably right. I’m just saying it must have been a gut punch.

My concern is that we didn't or couldn't make adjustments from the last game.

We adjusted offensively. Keita played so good in the 2nd half. Defense - not so much

We ended up scoring less points than before.

Sometimes there are physical limitations you can’t overcome. If shots don’t fall

I do think we could get a lot better at setting screens to get guys open.

We didn't seem to have that many great looks though like we usually do

I don’t disagree. But go watch the Hall during KY’s post-game locker room

You actually proved my point even more. That sounded like it was a spirited

They played much better in the 2nd half and essentially played even with UH

True. Go back and reread my post. Wasn’t my point.

JUST MOTIVATION! So many teams go on a run in the tourney, when they lose in

Hall’s defense was bad. He gave up 5 3 pointers with his lax defense

No shame ending the losing streak to #2 team in the country

Facts are a thing. We lost by 31 or so to Houston last time. Our 9 game streak

that's what wimpy passing and hesitation on your shots gets you vs UH

We spotted them about 15 pts and never recovered.

2nd half we outscored them which offers some encouragement.
