Next up for the Cats are the Sooners of Oklahoma (11-11) (1-8) travel to Rupp to take on the Cats of Kentucky (15-7) (6-3) in an SEC battle. These teams are heading in two different directions the Sooners will be more than a month since their last win which was on Jan. 3 a 16-point win at home vs. Ole Miss. Since then, they have lost 8 straight. The Cats on the other hand come into this one winner of 6 or their last 7 games. The Cats like Oklahoma have on lost 1 game since their 15-point loss on Jan. 3 at Alabama. The Cats are coming off a hard-fought road win at Arkansas. This one unfortunately will be a Wednesday 9:00pm tip on ESPN2. Go Cats!!

It’s the same thing, but I think of this game as less must win as I do must not lose. Kentucky cannot afford to drop games against teams they should beat. That loss to Mizzou still haunts. 

The "unpredictables" take the floor again.  They need this win!

Cats 81

Sooners 67

This didn't used to bother me that much. But I'm now guy in his forties, with a seven month old at home.  He prefers to go to bed at 9 o'clock and I really try to sleep when he likes to sleep and for that reason alone, these late starts suck.
