I'm going for the hat trick here!:D Gimme the cocks by 9. Wait a minute, that sounds bad.:D I'll take SC by 9 points.

Uk looked terrible Wed. night. When Sparks has almost as many turnovers as he does points and gets player of the game, you know it's bad. SC has played well as of late. If you can't tell, I've lost faith in UK this year.

I've not heard of anyone this year who claims that UK's play will make them NOT want to drink.:D

If the guys have any heart left for the game, or the season,they had better show it today! They know it's crunch time, I am an optimist, I think they have a little heart left.But of course......I want them to win!

They showed a little heart! And Sparky really lit it up the second half! Beautiful second half! Finally!

Well, I screwed up this one. I didn't expect UK to have their best half of the year at this point in the season. If the history of this team is any indication, we'll get the crap beat out of us the next game.

They are gonna need their best halves to keep going...next 4 are ROUGH. But I did see some awesome defense today accompanied with ....whats that?.....heart.....effort.....wow. Sparks' game was obvious....but Morris, Perry, Crawford, and yes....Thomas played well. Finally, a win on Sat!

You're still hangin on to the dream huh.. Yeah, Bradley didn't play well but he didn't play bad. Hell, he barely got in the game and didn't even take a shot. Add that to the 4 minutes he got last game and yeah, he ain't gonna put up real impressive numbers. I guess we'll just to wait until next year when he gets to play to see what he can do if he's allowed to play 35 mintues and shoot 20 times.;)

Had to record the game, and just finished watching.... I had a good feeling something good was going to happen as soon as I seen the whole team wearing knee socks.... Wonder if it was the team shrink's idea? I think every week they should wear the throw back jerseys... Although, I would have liked to have seen some Chuck Taylor's....

You know its a sad day in Kentucky basketball when people are excited over a win against SC. I don't have a clue what SC's record is but I know it isn't that great, so that means UK still only has 1 quality win this season unless you count the U of L game. At least they still have some games remaining on their schedule that can help them, but I would say they have to win at least 3 out of the 4 to have a chance to make the NCAA tournament. Going to be kinda different watching the selection show just to see if UK made the tournament instead of to see where they are going to play.

very true, although i really believe that by that time they will definately be in.

it wasn't so much that uk beat SC that has fans excited. imo, it was the WAY that we beat them. first win all year that was really never close in the 2nd half. OBTW, although SC isn't a great team by any means, they are really tough to beat at home.

SC beat Florida TWICE this year mind you. Any win in the SEC should be exciting. Maybe there is not the talent that the Big East has, but still, almost every game is now a "rivalry".....bring on the Gators and Vols :D

The NCAA tourney is all about money. If there is ANY way the selection commitee can get UK in, they will. The amount of money UK fans generate will be the deciding factor to the commitee if we are on the bubble. At this point, I think if UK can beat either FL or TN they will get in for sure. If they lose both and bomb out in the SEC then we might no get in.
