Final. That just erases the good win at Auburn.

You teach your team not to go that early for a reason.

Especially the way we guarded, rebounded, and went after loose balls tonight.

What an ending.

And that was better than some national championship celebrations after the game.

Kentucky deserved to lose that game for multiple reasons.  Wagner needs to sit until he's healthy.  I know Calipari is trying to shorten the rotation but Wagner shouldn't be a part of it right now.

That was a fun two games while it lasted. 

Defense was crap in the second half, as was most of our team.

If we guard like we did tonight and turn it over like tonight Bama will score 115 points on Saturday.

Give credit to LSU for making the play at the end. And on a play that Kentucky defended well. They got the block, LSU just got the loose ball and made a great play in the scramble. But that’s why you don’t give them 12 seconds.

In general I agree but that shot felt right.

I don't have a problem with it.  We were down one.  And we scored.  And did a decent job defensively, for once.

Obviously it was a good shot and he hit it. They got the look they wanted. But it’s textbook sequence - you don’t go that early so that if you do hit it, it isn’t wasted.

You ain't wrong.

Going to be hard to sleep tonight.

Ugh well that sucked. Only good thing to take away from this is this team is starting to learn how to play at the end of tight games. They made plays tonight the last minute on both ends to put themselves in position to win. Just unfortunately the LSU player made a great pass after a getting blocked to get the game winner. 
 

This team is looking to be a team that could get up to as high as a 3 seed depending how they finish, or down to a 6 seed. I don’t think many teams will want to play UK. UK is a scary team in regards they literally could lose in the first round, or make a deep run.

That is why I brought up UK playing 4pm to 7pm.  If the Cats win, it will be a great night for all, if not, you have time to bounce back and go on with life. 

This is the same for me as the Bengals playing at 1pm.
