I want a lot more of the same as well ... Darius with 3 fouls and MKG in slow mo ..like to get those two on track and then 20 more minutes of the same would be nice
What more can be said of Anthony Davis… The kid is National Player of the Year! Some tense moments, but these guys REFUSE TO LOSE! Great effort from M. Teague and T. Jones too… I love these guys! I had a house full of Big Blue fans, and we really enjoyed ourselves… Big, big VICTORY… We never , ever give up!
And I just knew that the second half was not going to be like the first. Vandy is a veteran team and they gave us all they had. We passed the test the Coach Cal wanted with flying colors. I don’t think anybody in the SEC beats us now… GO CATS!!!
I don’t know why it got under our skin today. Usually DM gets to that SEC logo and the zone collapses then dies. (Kinda hard to do that when he’s on the bench with 4 fouls)
with 1:18 left in the first Ezli basically punched Teague in the back of the head the ref was RIGHT there….sorry so late but I have not been on the boards as they seem (at least to me) to cause UK to play bad….wow that sounded retarded anyhow did anyone else see this and how did he not get ejected
next
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
Another 20 minutes...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Prepare for another 20 mins of war folks
jords - February 11, 2012
If JL's stats hold up, we should be better in the second half...
Wow!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
only on offense ;-)
But defense was so good that even a dip is still good
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Heh...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
I want a lot more of the same as well ... Darius with 3 fouls and MKG in slow mo ..like to get those two on track and then 20 more minutes of the same would be nice
ukcris - February 11, 2012
Vandy
will come out like gang busters I bet.

sweasyf - February 11, 2012
anyone see the BPI that ESPn published this week?
their version of the RPI
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
saw a reference to it earlier but haven't looked at it
That’s Dean Oliver at work I’m sure
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
I think its a fun way to work the numbers
not perfect by any means, but it seems moderately accurate…
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
They are even smiling in Heaven........
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
Oh man...miss that dude!
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
yes sir
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
RIP Mr K!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Prolly sitting right next to Cawood
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
At the end of the Kentucky Bench :)
blue oregon - February 11, 2012

Bluehound - February 11, 2012
Ya'all trying to make us cry?
Sniff sniff
jords - February 11, 2012
53%!!! That's amazing
twocee - February 11, 2012
Once again
no foul called on Vandy by the refs!
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
oh boy
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
time to quit celebrating and go to work
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
ditto
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
exactly - there are two halves
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
Actually, we started slow in the 1st half... I'll take a repeat, thank ya very kindly!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Thus, the TO
BarryM - February 11, 2012
need to step on their throat NOW
please don’t make me sweat this one, guys
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
They just want to make it interesting for us
twocee - February 11, 2012
I'd be interested in a blowout.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
amen
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
Couldn't agree more. Vandy is coming out much stronger (I think) in this half.
Fouls will add up fast on our kids now.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
seems this happens most games
Opponent comes out and scores a quick 4-5 points and Cal calls timeout with under 2 minutes played.
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
I'm sure you're tracking that, right?? LOL
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
not explicitly ;-)
Just something I’ve noticed
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Don't these Vandy students have some sort of Tort Reform test to study for ;-)
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Where's the Oh Snap video??? LOL
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
That was just awesome
jords - February 11, 2012
Teague
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
does Taylor think he plays for UK or something?
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
sorry, didn't mean that as a reply :)
My computer is being weird
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
he wishes
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
MKG having a bad time tonight
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
getting ready to see how we do with foul trouble
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
Important test pre-March
jords - February 11, 2012
3 on DM and MKG...
Could be a factor later??
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Not good. Not good.
twocee - February 11, 2012
Thats a BS call
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
4 on miller
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
Miller that was just just moronic
absolutely braindead
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012

Well shit!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Crap call.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
Took the words out of my mouth
twocee - February 11, 2012
C'mon Darius............pull your head out of your jersey
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
Miller just cant catch a break tonight....Wiltjer will have to take up his slack
SevenRings - February 11, 2012

ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
Foul issues
BarryM - February 11, 2012
his arm was trapped against tinsley
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
Davis that was MANLY
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Uni doing work!!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Davis is a bad "shut your mouth"
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
I'm just talkin 'bout Uni!
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
hehe
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Move clock - move.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
this is good....
we can see how we do in foul trouble
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
don't want to have to find out here.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
too late...
we are in foul trouble. call me mr half glass full
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
Oh I know we're in foul trouble; just really didn't want that.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
Smooth...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
that was really pretty by Lamb
I love a floater
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
MKG just not getting anything done
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Is there any way to stop Taylor?
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
Man, MKG......
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
That should be UK ball
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Are they going to call the moving screen by Ezeli ever!
BigBlueBrandon - February 11, 2012
no
it’s going to be lopsided, get used to that
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
settle down boys
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
Doron is pretty animated tonight
jords - February 11, 2012
we still need a 3
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
We still need a W
3’s don’t really matter
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
3's are very helpful for getting W's though
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
and keeping an awesome streak going...
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
Please please let it be Kyle
Erase earlier bad mojo
jords - February 11, 2012
MKG sisn't make the trip south
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Him and Darius are still on the bus..
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
sisn't = didn't
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Oh, how I
do NOT want to lose to Vandy! Make it tough for me to go to work on Monday in downtown Nashville!
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
Ouch!
BarryM - February 11, 2012
The 'Cats have to withstand this.
If Vandy doesn’t get there, they will fall.
Glenn Logan - February 11, 2012
we expected a run from them ... we have to answer
ukcris - February 11, 2012
Agreed, if we withstand and then open out a few more points we're fine
If they tie or go ahead it’s on.
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Fight
Vandy is bringin’ it, we need to get our swagger back
BarryM - February 11, 2012
Agree
Need MKG & DM to play w/o fouling.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
MGK not playing his best defensive game,
let alone offensively.
Grasslands1 - February 11, 2012
I still believe in our defense....It will win the night!
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Need a play out of the T.O. for a 3pt or lob.....
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
We REALLY have to watch fouls now. We are hurting bad in that department
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
shut up with your dire graphics, ESPN
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
agreee
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
Lamb missing too many shots!
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
I hope Uk doesnt have an adrenaline dump....with fould trouble more minutes will be mandatory
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Great board Jones
GREAT look Teague
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
great run ad
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
Way to run the floor AD
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
Guard the 3 boys...
Pretty simple in the end.
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Guess they didn't hear me??
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
You don't defend that shot...
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Obviously not
twocee - February 11, 2012
ordinarily I would say they can let them have that shot from that distance all day
But not when it’s Jenkins.
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
well crumbs
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Momentum...
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Yep
let them back in the game and the crowd will carry them.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
half court threes are next right?
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
That was insane
jords - February 11, 2012
indeed some of these are contested and rather long
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
oh woe is me
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
I gotta say it feels kinda bad right now
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
ARGH!
twocee - February 11, 2012
Dang 6 quick ones
what an equalizer. Make them come inside where we have wingspan man
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
OMG this is getting ugly
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
Vandy is
ALWAYS ugly!
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
Cal got his wish
They just went NUTSO
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
You could call this "nutty".
How do we respond?
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
+1
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Jenkins is feeling it
We Need to answer
BarryM - February 11, 2012
you think?
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
Time for a leader to show up
and take control
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
MKG heard you
jords - February 11, 2012
Lamb come one man....answer with some 3's of your own
Break their spirit
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
They're playing great D on the perimeter
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
we got this !!!
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
what are ADs FT number in conference play?
got to be in the 80s right?
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
MKG breaks the ice...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
MKG finally showed up!
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Band Bang....way to answer men
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Not sure we needed that shot
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Wow Lamb's 3's aren't close tonight
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
looked to me like that last one was teague
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
thats not what we need from teague
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
What has happened to our defense?
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
Guys.. we just need 2's
Viks - February 11, 2012
Where's the D
They barely made 20 in the first half, they have 45 at the 10 min mark
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Playing tentative on D...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
No travel there.....
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
shit. shit shit shit. shit.
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
Offensive rebounding would be so nice right now
jords - February 11, 2012
They tied it
It’s gut check time!
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
You got that right
Time to learn and take control
BarryM - February 11, 2012
wow
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
MKG is...trying to do too much?
Just take what they gave you
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
WTH? Where did we go?
twocee - February 11, 2012
Memorial Magic ... and a little disruption from the ref's
ukcris - February 11, 2012
this is nutty - i think
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
it is nutty
and I HATE it. Take it back, Cal!!
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
I believe this team..I'm sure they will come back
Viks - February 11, 2012
Cal's wish is coming true!
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
Very very true
they have a saying about what you wish for, right?
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Man, I'm sick
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
its way to early in the morning for this kind of stress
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
what time is it over there ?
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
0630
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
yep to early for stress
we’ll be fine
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
Sometimes you will give up open looks from long range...you just gotta hope they miss a high percentage
they arent
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
they did first hall
this ain’t the first half
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
kinda looked like MKG got tripped coming off the screen
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
been happening all night!
BigBlueBrandon - February 11, 2012
this is what we need
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
agree
memphis wildcat - February 11, 2012
We need to focus......make our switches on defense correctly and play our game....
nad we will be fine
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
I don't care about nad.
He’s our problem. ;-)
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
yes
Vandy made a run. Not terribly surprising. Just another chance for the team to grow a little more.
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
i agree
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
also a chance for our kids to get beat; still prefer blowouts
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
you're right
but I was really hoping they WOULDN’T ;)
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
Did good on D in front of Cal
Not good away from him
StLHugo - February 11, 2012 via Android app
Maybe their offence will improve?
gasrich - February 11, 2012
If Vandy played 4 10 minute spurts like that, they would break 100 (they still have a minute to go also)
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
CATS
are shocked
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
Now is the time to settle the game down and execute good offensive sets
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Truer words never written
jords - February 11, 2012
Vandy has gone to a zone, and with DM not on the floor, we're not flashing to the middle...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
how about play a little d?
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
This is sucking right now.
Need to slow these Vandy shooters down.
GriffinRC - February 11, 2012
And tighten up the D
BarryM - February 11, 2012
Go Big Blue!
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
I'd say they're nervous
lots of bricks on rather open looks
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Now this is how we play defense
Viks - February 11, 2012
We don't need MGK and Teague taking the 3's
Grasslands1 - February 11, 2012
amen
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Miller!
BIG TIME!
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
DM, HUGE!!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Miller thank you thank you
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
We needed that
twocee - February 11, 2012
DM!!!
Viks - February 11, 2012
Streak lives DM
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
Thank you Darius
jords - February 11, 2012
MILLER TIME
that never gets old
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
UK is taking some body blows....time to push them back against the cage
and take control of the fight (errr game)
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Thank you Miller!
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
silly foul davis
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
just reached out and slapped him on the back as he ran by......
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
Wow, absolutely idiotic AD
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Idiotic
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
I can only assume he's feeling peer pressure with everyone's fouls
jords - February 11, 2012
If Miller makes 4 3's.....
I will forget the four fouls……I promise
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
Uni got caught napping...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
yepp
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
Vandy struggles to finish games, we'll see
Grasslands1 - February 11, 2012
Taylor is trying to start something
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
he may start if but Jones would finish it ;-)
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Definitely a foul
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Finally!
Odoms has been pushing AD like a madman all night.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
why would you deliver the inbounds pass there?
Not a smart choice
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
DM, that was dumb
so many dumb dumb decisions – shooting ourselves in the foot
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
be lucky to get out of here alive.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
Got caught sleeping there.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
GRRRRRRR
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
Falling asleep on D!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Where's the D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
MKG was hanging his head and got beat
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
woops teague
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
Got a bad feeling about this
twocee - February 11, 2012
well, if this isn't nutty, I don't know what is
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
MKG is not around today.. and that is hurting us
Viks - February 11, 2012
Oh for heaven's sake
jords - February 11, 2012
3 on Uni...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Wow, they called it on Jones...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
sounds like they gave it to Jones
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
BS
that was a foul on Ezeli much more than on us
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
For. Realz.
jords - February 11, 2012
lol
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
agreed
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
road game!!
Viks - February 11, 2012
can't hit a danged thing and cannot rebound for nothing.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
sorry for the bad grammer - nerves shot.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
anticipation foul ....
ukcris - February 11, 2012
Vitale
Dick says Vandy wants it more
BarryM - February 11, 2012
Vandy has home court
I don’t worry about road games much anymore
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
cant stand Dicky V
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
Refs have lost control.
Blowing the whistle then deciding there was a foul.
And, our team is showing our youth a bit. Calm down, guys.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
Gotta get their heads back in this game
b4 it gets away.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
I hate the zone defense so much
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
UK apparently does as well
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
And that's the way you break it!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
they can beat it though
They’re getting good shots, they just aren’t going in. It happens.
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
We'd best figure out how to beat it, everyone is going to be throwing it at us
jords - February 11, 2012
take that!
KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
Yes! wow, that was fast
gasrich - February 11, 2012
nearly threw my computer in theair in that dunk
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
Somebody tell me AD
wasn’t fouled on that first replay.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
refs already told ya!
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Road game, 7 v 5...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Yeah,
AD should have gotten some pads from the football team before heading to Nashville. He’s been hung on, undercut, hacked and mugged.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
so whats new about that lol
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
ok....but I am lying
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
In the first half Teague was wheelin and dealin'
the zone has completely taken him out of the game on offense
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
I looooove good basketball.....
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
We got a good one tonight
Gonna be a barn burner
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Don't give up on this team and
no negative vibes!!
Viks - February 11, 2012
Yes Sir!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Not giving up
just want them to play defense and not give up 3s.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
same here.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
oh, we got this game
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
BTW..y'all can mute, if Dick V sounds annoying
part of positive vibe!!! :)
Viks - February 11, 2012
Bring it on!
Gotta love this….I am all jacked up, pissed off, and ready to beat this Vandy team. GO CATS!
Neutralchaos - February 11, 2012
Ditto!
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
welcome to the thread
we all are lol
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
What would it take to get ESPN to quit playing with the camera angle?
bob in bg - February 11, 2012 via Android app
I've been thinking that
we’ve had a lot of horrible angles tonight!
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Still trying to find a good angle
in this bizarre arena.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
There is no good place for
camera angle in that gym. Been there many times and it is built like a theatre.

Dicky V at Murray State
oh wow
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
Yeah! Murray State
is my alma mater.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
I didn't go there (GOOOO Hilltoppers!) but live about 20 minutes away
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
Kids there will be super excited.
Good for Murray State, they’ve earned the spotlight.
jords - February 11, 2012
Oh, poor Murray. They get Dickie V.
twocee - February 11, 2012
Good job UK
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Lamb diving to the floor to get a ball - that's the kind of effort they need
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Ok its UK's turn to start raining 3's
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Ask and ye shall receive!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
And Lamb answers your call
twocee - February 11, 2012
What a great coaching call there Cal!
A little heat to throw things around…
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
BOOM!!!!!!!!
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
good ball movement there: inside-out for the 3!
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
LAMB
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
YES
thank you thank you thank you Lamb
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
Doron.. my man!!
Viks - February 11, 2012
LAMB!!
We NEED Lamb to get hot from out there. Or Miller
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
good one AD.. way to go
Viks - February 11, 2012
I guess AD
was not fouled there.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
What a pair of blocks
gasrich - February 11, 2012
The refs are JOBBING us
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
even Dickie V says that was BS
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Horrible call!
Just sad…
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Very bad
BarryM - February 11, 2012
That was absolute BS
jords - February 11, 2012
Refs really want Vandy to win this down't they?
twocee - February 11, 2012
Any time Tony Greene
is refereeing, he will be for the other team.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
Straight up
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
you got that right. You'd think someone in the league could do something about him.
bluegrassgal - February 11, 2012
Green!?
Oh, I hadn’t noticed. Lord help us.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
Now they're blowing it
for both sides. Game will be chaos since neither team knows how the refs are calling fouls.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
yeah, exactly
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
its a damn mess
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
I dont buy that at all...even with the sketchy officiating
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
That's how it works
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Loveit!
GO BIG BLUE! My ref hubby said ref blew whistle & did not knjow what he had.
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
WOw.....if that had been a no call on UK....this place would have exploded
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
MT with the floater...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012

SevenRings - February 11, 2012

kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
that just shows how terrible these refs are!
BigBlueBrandon - February 11, 2012
Lamb is off
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Good D there MKG..
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012

KYGRLNNM - February 11, 2012
Damn straight we can
twocee - February 11, 2012
Defense would be good
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Where is Teague?
SUpposed to be on Tinsley!
ukkrazyintn - February 11, 2012
And down the stretch they come....looking for a closer
SevenRings - February 11, 2012

EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Thank you Lamb
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012

gasrich - February 11, 2012
If we lose, do we still deserve #1?
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
That will not be happening.....so there is no sense discussing it

Lob to Davis out of the TO......
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
Lamb
“Mama there goes that man!”
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
The offense needs to flow through Miller
He’s the only one making good decisions with passing the ball and getting to the middle of the zone without turning it over
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Yes Sir!
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
He's a good decision-maker
except for that one inbounds
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
Lost my voice today, and am reduced to hand gestures
Not pretty
jords - February 11, 2012
uhoh
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
Your name Stallings?
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Let's just say I'm being very visually rude
jords - February 11, 2012
My pets probably wish I'd lost my voice today.
I keep scaring them with my yelling
twocee - February 11, 2012
They can't hear you!
BarryM - February 11, 2012
big free throws coming up
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Before the shot
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
1 and 1 though, right?
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Oh, are we in the bonus?
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012
that is what I heard...tho they could be wrong
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
In the bonus they said
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
The Boss is pretty steady there...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Come on Gillie...FT's are of the upmost importance now!
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Anybody got a cigarette????.....lol
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
I quit over a year ago
I could use one

Nope,
Hey man, want one of these………..?
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
lol
Bluehound - February 11, 2012

Bluehound - February 11, 2012
Glad 2nd half
put the offense in front of our bench for Cal to direct.
hoboat33 - February 11, 2012
Man.
Knew this would be tough. And it is.
Glenn Logan - February 11, 2012
I hope we didn't use up all our giddy and happy at halftime
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Cream rises to the top, let's see what we got...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
Guys.. hang in there..this team is going to show us its toughness

Cal wanted a tough one
He’s got it
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Sweaty palms....more Vodka

No call, of course.

Good defense - they were dead set on the 3 and it hurt them
kcgard2 - February 11, 2012

Only thing left is the final score
JLeverenz - February 11, 2012
Defense got good again, just when we needed it.

How about Miller and MKG managing to stay on the floor without picking up any more fouls? Good for them.

He doesn’t act or play like one. Almost makes you forget

We needed a game like this...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
My game ball goes to Teague
He was a cool customer today. He is really starting to blossom and become what we all hoped he would.
sweasyf - February 11, 2012

AMEN! Eggs made to order, good coffee, real bacon. You have to fill up at
breakfast because supper is usually nasty. I love salad but after three weeks of that for lunch and supper, I’m ready for something yummy.

GREAT WIN!!!
What more can be said of Anthony Davis… The kid is National Player of the Year! Some tense moments, but these guys REFUSE TO LOSE! Great effort from M. Teague and T. Jones too… I love these guys! I had a house full of Big Blue fans, and we really enjoyed ourselves… Big, big VICTORY… We never , ever give up!

SevenRings - February 11, 2012
This is probably our toughest road test-
And I just knew that the second half was not going to be like the first. Vandy is a veteran team and they gave us all they had. We passed the test the Coach Cal wanted with flying colors. I don’t think anybody in the SEC beats us now… GO CATS!!!
iam4ukintn - February 11, 2012
Folks, That's how champions play.....
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
i love these cats
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
This game also exposed our weakness to zone defense
something Cal can work over before March.
Viks - February 11, 2012
We've seen tons of zone and know how to attack it
I don’t know why it got under our skin today. Usually DM gets to that SEC logo and the zone collapses then dies. (Kinda hard to do that when he’s on the bench with 4 fouls)
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
he really stepped it up
when we needed it
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
The point is when Miller is out
we don’t stand a chance…maybe MKG should step in?

Wondering how we would've fared if it was cuse
and this was a FF game!! Need more than a miller to help us break the defense.
Viks - February 11, 2012
Agreed
Cuse plays a 2-3 better than anybody in the country. They would have beat us tonight if we got into this much foul trouble with them
sweasyf - February 11, 2012
Ergo.. Cal has some work to do
Dores exposed our weakness and now the coach know what to teach these kids.
Viks - February 11, 2012
Has UK ever had the National Defensice Player of the Year?
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
they do now
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
I think that is a lock now
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Not that I'm aware of...
EagleTDL - February 11, 2012
I didn't know we had a shot to break the NCAA record for TEAM blocked shots ... awesome
ukcris - February 11, 2012
what is the team ncaa record for blocks and where do we stand after tonight?
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
UCONN set the record in 2004 with 315 .... by my count we have 243 after tonight
ukcris - February 11, 2012
wow we should get that early in the tournament
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
Rate were going we'll get it before the end of the SEC tourney
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
I think as a team we average 9 blocks per game
ukcris - February 11, 2012
12 tonight
ukcris - February 11, 2012
So if we do stay right at 9 it would be in the SEC.... that would be AWESOME
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
I knew our defense would carry us tonight ... Davis is national POY IMO
ukcris - February 11, 2012
How cool would it be to have him get the DPOY and POY?
Certainly showing he deserves DPOY and should be top 2/3 at least for POY…. let alone ROY
floundringaround - February 11, 2012
I think he deserves all three .. only working against him is that he is a freshman
ukcris - February 11, 2012
That would really cool ... Davis blocks a lot but Jones and the rest of the cats get their share as well
ukcris - February 11, 2012
that is a creative spelling ;)
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012
I blame the makers of Absolut Vodka
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
I've blamed shit a lot worse than creative spelling on them!
blue kentucky girl - February 11, 2012

SevenRings - February 11, 2012

SevenRings - February 11, 2012
I'd need a Taxi ... :)
ukcris - February 11, 2012

a2d2 - February 11, 2012
Going to watch that again right now
Grasslands1 - February 11, 2012

Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012

SevenRings - February 11, 2012

ukcris - February 11, 2012
Best idea yet ;-)
SevenRings - February 11, 2012
Don't forget Ashley.....
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
Not sure if this has been discussed but....
with 1:18 left in the first Ezli basically punched Teague in the back of the head the ref was RIGHT there….sorry so late but I have not been on the boards as they seem (at least to me) to cause UK to play bad….wow that sounded retarded anyhow did anyone else see this and how did he not get ejected
OvaDwayneBowe - February 11, 2012
BTW he did miss the chip in layup after punching Teague
OvaDwayneBowe - February 11, 2012
just played it in slow-mo
you are exactly rite, knocked him down
Bluehound - February 11, 2012
i just went back and watched. he smacked him hard in the back of the head. I missed it live
big-cuz fan - February 11, 2012
nice pickup.....
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
yeah,
I totally missed that. That really makes me mad.
What was Ezeli’s suspension earlier in the year for anyway? I missed it..
BigSkyCat - February 11, 2012
I want to say it was academics, but dont quote me on that
Greg Alan Edwards - February 11, 2012
I think that's right Greg and he tore his knee up as well - missed 10 games
ukcris - February 11, 2012
Not to bring up old shit but that was eerily
similar to a fellow named Laettner…..and a stomp
OvaDwayneBowe - February 11, 2012
Postmorem up.
