With Bradshaw picking up two early fouls an Therio still out we have to finally get a good game from Edwards and hopefully a few good minutes from Burks but I am not holding my breath. Our course everyone gets up for the Cats they are shooting 56%^ currently and only shot 39% at Auburn. A&M leads 25-18 at the under 12 timeout.

31-27 A&M at the under 8 timeout. The Cats fastbreak points are keeping them in it and A&M is dominating on the offensive boards so far our guards are going to have to hit the boards harder. A fun game to watch so far.

A&M leads 46-45 at the half. Overall as well as A&M shot the ball and controlled the offensive boards they are in good shape only being down 1 with Bradshaw playing less than 5 minutes. The Cats shot the ball very well to keep it at a one point deficit. Texas A&M in their last home game last Saturday vs. LSU shot 15/59 for 25% and 5/28 from 3 for 18%. They already have six 3's in the first half and 2 of those were off of offensive rebounds.

Kentucky is 4-0 when losing to A&M at the half since 2014.

Kentucky could really use Thiero in these SEC games.  The terrible play by Edward's right before halftime is an easy dunk for Thiero because he doesn't play small and Edward's decides to dribble to the basket and pump fake. You would think he's closer to 5'8 instead of 6'8 the way he plays sometimes.

Love that stat I hope it holds today.

Cats lead 54-52 at the under 16 timeout. Bradshaw picked up his 3rd foul 5 seconds in. The Cats have to stop the straight line drives to the basket besides hitting the defensive boards harder. Now Wagner has 3 fouls as well. We need big and good minutes this half from Dillingham.

My goodness another offensive rebound for A&M that leads to another 3 that is the 3rd 3 for A&M off of offensive rebounds. Cats lead 65-61 with 11:23 to play. That could be big the Cats could have had the ball coming down up 7 instead they are just up 4.

Tied at 68 at the under 8 timeout. Bradshaw plays another :15 seconds and gets his 4th foul. Onyenso is getting winded this may be a good time to put Bradshaw back in and try a little zone and let him get some reps in. I know it is highly unlikely for Cal to play any zone but it would keep Bradshaw and Wagner safer and cut down on straight line drives that the Cats guards are giving up. We can hope he will try a few trips of zone not holding my breath however.

Tied at 74 with 4:42 to play. That would have been a huge momentum swing if that Sheppard 3 had went. I personally had no problem with it and would say nothing to him about it.

This is a game!  T up by 2.

Cats trail 79-76 with 3:49 to play.

Doesn't look like it is going to be the Cats day. Texas A&M  has 11 made 3's today and in their last 3 games combined they have 11.

Cats down 4 with the ball with 2:23 to play.

Reed Sheppard fails to block Radford out and gives up a big basket. A&M leads by 3 with 1:05 left.
