I don't think Andrew is going I get many oppurtunities to drive. His passing is going to have to be perfect for UK to win. I see UK passing the ball to Randle a lot down in the post and having him facilitate the O from down there. I'm more nervous now than any other tourney game this year. Just finish the dang thing and make it the perfect storybook ending

Remember this is the same Uconn team that beat Florida twice this year, the same teamthat beat us 3 times. Never take them too lightly.

 

They also got run out of the gym by Louisville... It doesn't matter at this point

You got that right. Every game like a snowflake. I think the CATS are on a very special journey and win another tight one. Will go down as greatest run in history.

Kentucky needs to pound the ball to Dakari and Julius. If they shoot more than 5 triples, it's not a good sign IMO.

 

I'd like to see them shoot about 10 tonight. Good and well timed shots. Hit a few of those and stretches the defense a little. But it worked for them against Wisconsin.

I really think this is the Louisville game all over again. 2 guards and a Forward is really all they have. There is going to be a lot of ball swings and ball screens tonight.

And people say these players don't care about the program after they leave (not counting Patterson and Miller).

They are all family. That's what Cal is all about. Anybody read the great story about Dakari's grandfather on KSR? These kids are loved by Cal. What a tremendous person he is.

I read a comment by Brad Stevens today. Said Rondo talks so much about UK that Stevens just puts on his headphones when it starts.

^Good stuff.

Don't forget Terrance Jones was there Saturday night as well.

 

For guys that many would have you believe don't care about the school, they sure do love tweeting and talking about the Wildcats.

As a guy that has propped up UK all year (even though I am NOT a fan), when the UK fans were cliff-diving after LSU, Arkansas, and South Carolina, because of their offensive rebounding (nice to see everyone nationally is now beating that drum...finally), I actually think UConn is a bad match-up for them.

 

The UConn back-court are going to be a real problem for the Harrison twins, are going to force a LOT of turnovers, and as we know, won't be forced into many on the other end. I think UK needs to have less than 12 turnovers to win this game, and honestly, I just don't see that happening. It will be fun to watch Boatright and Bazz get up under those twins and really make life hard on them.

 

UConn by 6-10.

UK sticks to its currently game plan. Pounds the UCONN defenders, gets them in foul trouble and puts it away late.

 

UK 69

UConn 63

Is this the first time that two teams have squared off in the Championship with neither being in the tournament field the year before?

 

1966 was the last time
