Consider this your second half open game thread.
First half tidbits: UALR has eight steals and only three turnovers. UALR's Chuck Guy is 4-of-8 from the field, 3-of-5 from long-distance, giving him a game-high 11 points.
Kentucky has 13 turnovers (five by MKG) and is shooting 39.3% from the field (11-28). Terrence Jones, Anthony Davis, MKG, and Darius Miller are a combined 9-of-15 from the field (60.0%), the rest of the 'Cats 2-of-13 (15.4%). UK is +10 in the rebounding column.

NEW THREAD MOJO!!!
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
See above! :-)
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
above!?
check the time buddy – I got there first ;-)
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
You are right! Sorry Eagle.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Dang it! LOL
It showed up first in my browser…
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
the team needs all the new mojo they can get ;-)
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
New MOJO!!!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
+10
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
yes you can lol
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
hahaha
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
A fresh board for a fresh half
needed
sweasyf - January 3, 2012
MKG on the bench
He wasn’t himself in the 1st half.
sweasyf - January 3, 2012
I think Cal sprouted a few gray hairs tonight
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
Cal's doctor is probably on speed dial for games like this
jords - January 3, 2012
needs some dapper dan :)
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
DM: Thanks for the follow Smooth...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Miller steal, good thing Lamb trailed
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Jones with an absolute stuff
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Teague is money from 16 feet at the key
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Come on guys!
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Miller - his game has gone backwards recently
I don’t understand
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
1000 point curse?
jords - January 3, 2012
What happened Teddy, swallow your whistle there??
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Flabbergasting!
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
I'm seriously starting to get worried.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Teague needs to be tougher
If he had stood his ground he would have drawn the charge.
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
It was still a horrid call
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
I'm surprised at how late it was
but it was an obvious blocking call.
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
There was virtually no contact
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
on the drive?
there was – if Teague had stood his ground he would have taken it in the chest and drawn a charge, but he bailed out and clipped him in the side instead
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
What is with all of the late calls against us?
The plays move on and then they bring it back? Ridiculous.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
15 seconds later.....
floundringaround - January 3, 2012
I refuse to lose to a team whose star player looks like a backup for Kid n' Play
jords - January 3, 2012
This must be green!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Thank you, I'll be here all night.....
Tip your webmasters….
jords - January 3, 2012
I hope our guys feel that way
They still don’t look like they do
sweasyf - January 3, 2012
We excel at turning the ball over
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
Yep
like we’ve been practicing it
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Bunches...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Wow..seems like all of the 'Cats are trying as one-on-one to make something happen...
play team ball guys, you all know how to.
kentuckyrules - January 3, 2012
Team ball. Great idea.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
I only heard of it working, in "theory"
:)
kentuckyrules - January 3, 2012
I'm disgusted!
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
kick the TX fan lol
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
That made me smile!
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
What part of NM??
Spent some time in Clovis in a previous life…
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Alamogordo, the AF sent me.
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
No other reason to visit Clovis or Almaghetto... :-)
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
That is a true statement.
Hoping for orders to Florida the end of this year.
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
Did some Eglin time, really liked it there.
‘Course, from about November to March you have to watch out for the little blue-haired ladies in their Cadillacs but other than that it’s all good…
EagleTDL - January 4, 2012
good lol
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
So when is the run coming?
or is it coming at all?
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
if we lose, the run will be back to Lexington
stray cat - January 3, 2012
As fast as their legs will go! Don't look back; Cal is
catching up…….Run….
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
With Cal driving a monster truck behind them yelling "Faster!" ;-)
jords - January 3, 2012
What are they doing????
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
Getting their A$$ beat because there are 5 very cool guys on the floor
Instead of a TEAM! Grrrrrr!
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
Well said
jords - January 3, 2012
Can I get it greened?
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Consider it done, my friend
jords - January 3, 2012
Greened?
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
Huh. Thought it only took 2 recs?
If it takes 3, my bad.
jords - January 3, 2012
Your comment gets two recs and it turns green. With a thumbs up.
Refresh your thread page and you will see it.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
If you hit the "actions" button it will give you a choice to "Rec" or "Flag" a comment.
With enough “Recs” it turns green…
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Very nice. I see it now.
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
Welcome! :-)
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Uni!!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Man, I'm not blaming them
but every tacky call has seemed to go to UALR
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Oh me oh My!
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
MKG just isn't getting it today
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Smooth!!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Is this the run?
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Hahaha, that looked like the start of a cool dance routine maybe
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
School these Fools!
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
ok folks
its over now !!
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
MKG!!!!
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
40-34 UK for those without access.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Wow, terrible terrible call
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Really???
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
wow
There was no push at all there
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
If so, it was certainly ticky-tack...
2 games in a row now… We piss somebody off??
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
it's hard to tell for sure from the angle
But it didn’t look like Teague even touched him at all
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
I think he gave him a little shove, but I don't know if it was worth calling a foul over based on some of the things I've seen tonight
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Thanks, the stream is behind, not complaining but I see 34-35 Cats
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
that's just inexcusably bad
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
This is absurd
it’s like two different rules for fouls depending on who is playing offense
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
I've never seen so many bad calls.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Ok, who's playing point now?
jords - January 3, 2012
Doron
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
AD it seems. ;-)
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Uni with some range!!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Davis hit a long jumper
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Davis made a 3! or was it a 2?
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
2
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
two
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
1002!
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
Bang! Bang!
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
Miller, PRETTY
1000
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Darius makes 1000!
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Maybe that is the trick, there.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
Now DM, that was a 3!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
miller finally gets his 1000!
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
Up 10!
Finally!
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
looked like cal told him about time
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
Finally, some hope
I was about to go buy an orange shirt so I could hit myself
sweasyf - January 3, 2012
hahaha
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Sweet!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Miller gets his 1000th point
And still gets glared at by Cal in the huddle. Come on, Coach….1 little smile won’t hurt you….
jords - January 3, 2012
Cal is worried about team performance right now,
not individual achievement.
kywineman - January 3, 2012
Good point.
jords - January 3, 2012
So was Darius, when he threw the lob instead of shooting. He was open. Just an observation.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Also a good point
jords - January 3, 2012
guy is one bowlegged fella
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
Ha! He is!
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
UK up by 10, time out
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
My ESPN3 has cleared up some.
Neighbor must have been watching a Netflix movie or something.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
wonder how New Mexico girl is doing with her feed?
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
lol
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
It's awesome just behind a little.
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
Read slowly, then it will seem synchronized... ;-)
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Ha!
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Between Kid n' Play and his buddy Dreads....UALR is sporting some interesting hair
jords - January 3, 2012
Follow it, TJ
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
i wish Twany would get up to speed at PG, we need it.
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
I would like to see him get some time.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
Smooth does a good job at the point...
No complaints from me!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
I want more depth, that's all.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
K, I can see that...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
well that was a weird foul
but fits right in with the rest of this game
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
33333333333333333
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
MILLER!!!
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
33333333 for DM
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
I want TJ to go back to scowling and posing.
He was fine before he got all the flack.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
I agree and have thought that for some time. Let the kid
express himself – everyone else on earth can.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Awakening the sleeping giant
ukcris - January 3, 2012
Both awesome and historic
jords - January 3, 2012
Take that Lilliputians!
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
even a 6'10" lilliputian ...
ukcris - January 3, 2012
Jones rewrote the traveling rules there ;)
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
haha, yeah, and doing it in slow motion
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
TJ coming around, having a decent little game...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Suddenly, UK up 17
there was that run
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
we'll all look back at that 1st half and laugh
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
My mood has improved substantially.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Ah, no.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
Smooth looks good shooting layups!! :-)
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
can doron dunk?
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
Yeah, but 99.9% of the time he does a layup on the break...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
cameraman is sloooow!
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
Order is restored to the universe
sweasyf - January 3, 2012
Truly
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
There walks Arkansas Little Rock...the dummies that thought they were gonna beat UK
;-)
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
if you don't think you're gonna win
why play?
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
TV $$$
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Agreed
if you gonna play, play hard. They had my serious respect about 3 minutes into the game.
sweasyf - January 3, 2012
They had me scared about 3 minutes into the game.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Now, this is the Jones I love...
he’s very intense this game :)
kentuckyrules - January 3, 2012
9 mins since UALR has had a FG
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
That's quite a while.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Was the LR player outside the arc there?? Sure would like to see a replay of that charge...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
I want a replay too
but that was probably a charge for real
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
he was outside the arc
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
definitely outside the arc and looked set....just rewound it
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
Thanks Bro!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
I thought he was outside the arc.
The call was not as bad as some I have seen. He was maybe still moving when AD went up – but it takes him a while to get all that body up.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
was that really a charge on AD?
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Ok, my ESPN3 feed just froze
AD with a charge? Really?
jords - January 3, 2012
UK on 23-1 run since the 17:12 mark
Ken Howlett - January 3, 2012
UK really gets framed for a ton of offensive fouls...
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
UK 35 boards, LR 16
Ken Howlett - January 3, 2012
Davis with a man board!
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Jones and Davis playing ping pong
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
chuck guy sounds like a witness protection name!
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
lol
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
Mmmmm, I'm not sure that was a great choice by AD
despite what the announcers say
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Cal acting like it was a practice! LOL
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
hope he has a live stream for the next practice lol
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
UK 10 blocks
Ken Howlett - January 3, 2012
Finally An AD Post Up
Wild Weasel - January 3, 2012
Your wish comes true!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Cal seems a bit more animated this year.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Wow, horrible call in our favor that time
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Davis 13 & 13
Ken Howlett - January 3, 2012
Ok folks, gonna watch the Sugar Bowl....later
SevenRings - January 3, 2012
Take care - good night.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
See ya Bro!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
over this???
ukcris - January 3, 2012
He couldn't wait a few minutes. :-)
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
got to do what you got to do ... cats got this one
ukcris - January 3, 2012
enjoy
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
Back to sleep for the kitty cats
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Why was that guy left out there all alone?
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Teague forgot to switch...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
They said Cal was mad at Lamb for that...
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Smooth was guarding somebody, Teague wasn't...
Assumed it was MT that goofed up but could be wrong…
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Breakfast Club Not Working
All that well as far as communicating goes.
Wild Weasel - January 3, 2012
there we go with AD
cat stevie - January 3, 2012
Uni!!!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
What. A. Finish.
by Davis
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Based on the way they are calling I thought that must have been a charge?
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
TJ was just waiting on that shot!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Think he practically mugged the guy too!
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
I bet Glenns
write up will be interesting lol
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
It will be, because I'm writing it, LOL
Ken Howlett - January 3, 2012
lol.....
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
Indeed!
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
bet yours will be too
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
Nice finish by Teague there
might be the first good thing he’s done tonight
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
How did MT not get fouled there based on the calls earlier??
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
UK 51% fg, LR 29%
Ken Howlett - January 3, 2012
Here's hoping that this is the worst game they play this year.
kywineman - January 3, 2012
Worst half, for sure...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Amen!
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
Seton Hall up 18 with under 3 to play against UConn
Huskies can’t lose enough
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
Amen Bro!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Would like to see Syracuse lose to Marquette on Saturday //
ukcris - January 3, 2012
ditto that
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
Entirely possible... Marq has a good-looking ball club!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
I agree totally
ukcris - January 3, 2012
From what I've been reading on La Twitter, UConn having the same kind of start the Cats did tonight
Difference being: we hope UConn doesn’t shake it off. like, ever.
jords - January 3, 2012
SH has a pretty good squad this year
Herb pope has been terrific
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
If they lost every game they played it would suit me right
down to the ground. (UConn, that is).
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
Crashing the glass, like it!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
TJ and Davis do work on the glass
did they say MKG has the flu or something?
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Speculating, I think.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Miller STRONG!
kcgard2 - January 3, 2012
Wilt needs about 20lbs of muscle...
He’ll be a machine when that happens….
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Agreed. He needs the kind of bulk-up summer TJ had this year.
jords - January 3, 2012
I love Miller. And I love Kyle Macy
but to suggest that Miller is their best post player is silly.
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
I wanted to marry Macy when I was a little girl.
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
LOL
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
You weren't along in that! LOL
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Inane is the word of the day... :-)
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Miller!
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
How come we never seem to beat the spread?
We are usually close, but seem to rarely beat it. Even with UL we gave up like 8 points in the last 2 seconds to drop to 1 UNDER the spread.
GriffinRC - January 3, 2012
I think Miller's stroke is back...
/understatement
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
he's shooting >40% since the UNC game
JLeverenz - January 3, 2012
I think you just redefined the word "understatement"
jords - January 3, 2012
OMG, Darius. That was GORGEOUS!
jords - January 3, 2012
Easy there Sister... :-)
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
But....it was so pretty.....
jords - January 3, 2012
LOL Just razzing ya gal...
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
The team is in trouble when I (finally) get o see them live in March
I might huggle them all to death in my mind. :-)
jords - January 3, 2012
comin down to watch em ?
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
SEC tourney baby!
Blue Orleans!!!!!
jords - January 3, 2012
good for you !!!
I think the FF is ther too, you can go back
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
SECT and the NCAAT in Nola? I didn't realize that.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
I knew the FF was. Wow!
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
we'll be used to the place lol
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
yes, they're both in Blue Orleans.
it gave me the excuse I needed to get tickets for both.
jords - January 3, 2012
Wiltjer with the hack
ukcris - January 3, 2012
turrible call
ukcris - January 3, 2012
just turrible.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
really turrible
ukcris - January 3, 2012
Well, ESPN3 says our event has ended and thanked
me for watching. So,we’ll wait for Ken to sum it up for us. Night all.
bluegrassgal - January 3, 2012
See ya!
I’m out too Gang, have a great evening!
EagleTDL - January 3, 2012
Later folks.
Until we meet again.
a2d2 - January 3, 2012
Glad that one is over.
All’s well that ends well.
sweasyf - January 3, 2012
I am very glad that game is over.
Can we all just agree to remember that Miller made his +1000 point tonight and never speak of this game again?
jords - January 3, 2012
I'm in
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
grazi!
jords - January 3, 2012
Good night from NM.
Thank heavens I can show my face at work tomorrow. Work with a couple of rabid dUKe fans and the were brutal after Indiana. This would have been MUCH worse.
KYGRLNNM - January 3, 2012
really kick them !!!
Bluehound - January 3, 2012
