Wildcats Will Need P Squared's A Game Tonight

Drexel v Kentucky


Patrick Patterson will need to be effective on both the defensive and offensive ends of the court for the Wildcats to pull out a victory in Gainesville tonight. However, it is his experience and leadership that will be most important to keep his less experienced teammates from becoming unnerved due to the wild environment that they will be presented with tonight. If the Wildcats can pull out a victory against Florida, the distance to the Indianapolis exit gets a little shorter - oh yeah, and it will give the Big Blue another reason to party.

Wildcats Win...Rupp is Like Hell?

Hell Is For Losers sign


Louisville guard Edgar Sosa (according to several media outlets) likened the Rupp experience to walking into hell. For me, the only thing hellish about today's game were the referees and the announcers. The anti-UK agenda was in full-court 'press' mode. In addition, when Seth Davis' panties got all wadded up at halftime, you just knew that the drama wasn't anywhere near being over.

In this year's I-64 clash, it is the Wildcats who come away victors, winning 71-62. Wall, Cousins, and Patterson are beasts. It has been a long time since UK has had warriors that simply refuse to back down to anyone (even when the referees spot their opponent a dozen or so points). For the Cardinals and their well-feathered fans, all the smack talk leading up to today's game bought them a lot of crow - happy dining!

Pluck That Bird!

NCAA Elite 8: Michigan State Spartans v Louisville Cardinals


I must say that I believe UK will win easily today. UL has lost some head scratchers this season, and I don't believe that they will get their acts together in time for a win in Rupp Arena today. Bottom line: UK's starting five is light years ahead of the starting five that Louisville will put on the court.

Another Record Night for Wall, Another Blowout Win for UK

Long Beach v Kentucky


Once again John Wall has shown why so many people (UK fans especially) are taking every opportunity they are presented with to do the "John Wall dance." The Wildcats crushed Hartford 104-61. Meanwhile, John Wall broke a record previously held by Travis Ford by dishing out 16 assists in last night's throw down. Our feathered 'friends' to the west enter Rupp on Saturday.

Reversal of Fortune

A broken fortune cookie


The UK football team falls to Clemson 21-13. Brooks & Co. just never seemed to be in the game tonight. The Wildcats got off to a decent start, but finished horribly. On a positive note, UK should be better next year and in the hunt for a 5th straight bowl bid.
