Vandy with 4 straight off of Kentucky turnovers and now led 34-25 at the under 4 media timeout. Vandy is leading the nation in points off turnovers at a little of 23 per game. So far, the Cats have had 9 turnovers in just over15 minutes and Vandy has 7 points off those turnovers.

I can’t believe Pope gives any minutes to Chandler. Dude has been petrified to be out there all season. At least Noah is playing with some moxy.

Cedric Williams is too soft for SEC play. 

This first half offense is unrecognizable as a Pope offense. Dribble, Dribble, Dribble .. one on one, turnover, no passing 

14 point deficit at the half. Could easily be 20+.

Yep. There was basically nothing positive about that first half. Offense looked bad, and defense been the same as it has all year. The only positive thing I think from that first half was Noah gave some good minutes. 
 

On a positive note this team has been in this position many times before being down double digits. The bad side is they have had so many games down double digits. Hopefully they can find away to overcome another double digit deficit to come back to win. 

Cats trailing 41-27 at the half. The Cats were outscored 16 the las 7:49 of the half. They led 23-21 with 7:49 left in the half. It that last 7:30 minutes the Cats had 8 of their 10 turnovers.

Mark Pope is jealous of how Vandy played that first half. That is what he wants UK to look like. Vandy offense looks just like Pope's UK offense. UK got outhustled. Vandy played a half step faster than UK. Vandy out UK'd UK that half.

Exactly here is a stat that shows that the Cats have only 5 assists to Vandy's 15 assists.

Cats off to a great start in the 2nd half as they have outscored 8 straight in just 2 minutes and have cut the Vandy lead to 41-35. Timeout Vandy.

Vandy lead 49-44 with 14:57 to play. Media timeout.

Cats in just a little over 7 minutes into the 2nd half have tied the game at 51.

Excellent move by Pope putting the taller Robinson on Edwards. Robinson not going under any picks and not going for pump fakes has stymied Edwards.

Cats get their first lead since the 7:49 mark in the first half. They now led 53-51. In just 9:34 of the 2nd half the Cats have outscored the Commadores 27-10. The Cats have already scored as many points in the 2nd half as they did the entire first half.

58-54, what a run by the Cats!

Cats leading Vandy 58-54 at the under 8 timeout with 7:54 left to play.
