The Double Deuce

Clearly, looking at the current poll results (33-29), everyone is expecting an absolute barn-burner on Friday night. Newport has had some very near misses in recent Regionals, and while I don't expect them to get his one, it is evident that many others absolutely do. Friday night should be a great night of hoops at The Bank.

Prayers Up, UKMF, I hope all goes well and the doctors do an amazing job -- may you have a long and healthy life following the procedure.

Anyone have results from the first two nights?

60ish to 45ish.

Cooper 7-10 point win.

I will be shocked if this isnt a double-digit win for CovCath.

Conner 29% from the arc, that isnt up to their normal standards. That is the potential issue, and NCAA teams playing in domes deal with it as well. Different depth than shooters are used to. Congrats to Newport. Have to love what Matt has going on out in Hebron.

Predictably, the Cru is really struggling on the glass.

I know liking a chain's wings is akin to insulting everyone's wing palates, but I like Quaker Steak & Lube's wings -- tons of meat and great sauces and combinations. I like the wings at Smoke Justis, no doubt. I think K-N-F is way overrated. FlipDaddy's actually has really good wings, which was a surprise to me. I miss Cassidy's in Fort Wright, not going to lie.

They have great smoked wings.

I don't live in Louisville, but I really like the wings at Joe's Older Than Dirt in Lyndon.

Great post!!

I think Conner is too dependent on the arc, and this is a new and different type of shooting background for them, so give me the team whose game travels. Newport by 11-14.

A little hard to paint this loss with other early losses when they faced the unquestioned best team in the state. Tough draw for Cozart & Co.

Life > Sports

Check. One rung closer to Rupp. In my opinion, the WORST match-up for Beechwood is the oncoming train from Union. I loved Sully's chance of winning halftime, he did, and Cooper exerted their will in the 2nd half. Solid double digit win for the Jags. Really good year for the Birds, and they will be back, great classes in the funnel.

BK is pretty good.

Hmm....someone called a double digit win AND then followed up that Sully would win the battle at halftime. Weird. Jags' trip to Rupp is one rung closer.

Full props to the Jags!!! Life is bigger than hoops, and if anyone is sadly aware of that, it is Cooper.

Bam! I see y'all, never a doubt! Ha...kidding...lots of doubts late.

Come on Royals, finish!!!

Quite a difference than the Beechwood Tigers putting up half a hundred in the first half. I LOVE Cooper's chances in the 2nd half with Coach Sully making the halftime adjustments.

Let's go Kirk and the Kirkettes. Go Royals.

Wow, Cards found another gear.

Here come the Rocks!!
