Did they ever look at that? Didn’t get a good angle on the replay.

I’d love to hear his thoughts on the second half

TN fans finding out that The Sec's "It Just Means More" don't mean much in Big Ten country. Vawl Fans inconsolable...

I heard this morning from a coworker that Anthony Brown Stephens was our 5th highest paid player? Can someone please get me the answer to that? I haven’t laughed like that in a long time and I told him he was FOS, but he swears he’s not. If that’s true, that tells you all you need to know about how poorly this staff did the past year.

The March Madness Power 37
​

1. Tennessee (Prev. 3, 8-0): The Vols take a turn at No. 1. Chaz Lanier has been dominant of late. He’s led Tennessee in scoring in the last four games with 26, 25, 18 and 26.
2. Auburn (Prev. 1, 8-1): The Tigers shouldn’t drop more than a spot after losing at Duke.
3. Iowa State (Prev. 6, 7-1): The Cyclones beat Marquette at home by 11 — one of the best wins of the season, thus far.
4. Marquette (Prev. 4, 9-1): The Golden Eagles followed up the loss at Iowa State by pulling away from Wisconsin behind 32 from Kam Jones.
5. Kentucky (Prev. 5, 8-1): The Wildcats split the week by following up the loss at Clemson with a thrilling OT win over Gonzaga in Seattle.
6. Duke (Prev. 8, 7-2): The Blue Devils had quite a week with a win over Auburn and then a comeback win at Louisville to open the ACC.
7. Alabama (Prev. 11, 7-2): The Tide went to North Carolina and blitzed the Tar Heels.
8. Clemson (Prev. 37, 9-1): The Tigers had a season-changing week by knocking off Kentucky and opening the ACC with a road win at Miami.
9. Florida (Prev. 9, 9-0): The Gators will get tested mightily against ASU and North Carolina in the next week.
10. Michigan (Prev. 16, 8-1): Love this Wolverines team. They are the surprise of the Big Ten and won at Wisconsin and outlasted Iowa.
11. Purdue (Prev. 10, 8-2): The Boilermakers split their Big Ten games, losing at Penn State and knocking off Maryland.
12. Kansas (Prev. 2, 7-2): I’m not ready to completely drop Kansas. They had two very difficult road games at Creighton and rival Missouri. Let’s wait another week on the Jayhawks.
13. UConn (Prev. NR, 7-3): The Huskies are back. We had to wait and see after the 0-3 in Maui. UConn beat Baylor and then won at Texas.
14. UCLA (Prev. NR, 8-1): Welcome back to the Bruins, who shocked Oregon in Eugene Sunday on a Dylan Andrews buzzer-beater after beating Washington at home to open the Big Ten 2-0.
15. Michigan State (Prev. 26, 8-2): The Spartans have finally found their groove, starting the Big Ten 2-0 with wins at Minnesota and over Nebraska.
16. Gonzaga (Prev. 13, 7-2): The Bulldogs lost a heartbreaker to Kentucky in OT in Seattle. They have a few more tests with UConn at MSG and UCLA in LA in the next few weeks.
17. Oregon (Prev. 7, 9-1): The Ducks lost their first game of the season to UCLA after winning at USC.
18. Oklahoma (Prev. 19, 9-0): Porter Moser has his best team in Norman. Huge tests coming up against Oklahoma State and Michigan.
19. Ole Miss (Prev. 20, 8-1): The Rebels knocked off Louisville on the road and are quietly cruising in the non-conference.
20. Illinois (Prev. 15, 6-2): The Illini shouldn’t get punished too much for an overtime loss at rival Northwestern.
21. Penn State (Prev. NR, 8-1): Mike Rhoades may have one of the sleepers in the country after the Nittany Lions knocked off Purdue and look like an upper-division Big Ten team.
22. Texas A&M (Prev. 24, 8-2): The Aggies have won four in a row with all of them coming against power schools, including former rival Texas Tech.
23. Maryland (Prev. 28, 8-2): The Terps nearly got Purdue Sunday in West Lafayette after blitzing Ohio State.
24. Missouri (Prev. NR, 8-1): Say hello to the Tigers, who were 0-18 in the SEC last season. Missouri beat rival Kansas Sunday to send a strong message to the rest of the SEC that they have returned from the abyss.
25. Arizona State (Prev. 21, 8-1): The Sun Devils beat Saint Mary’s and have just one blemish — at Gonzaga.
26. San Diego State (Prev. 22, 6-2): The Aztecs appear to be one of the two teams to beat again in the Mountain West.
27. Baylor (Prev. 18, 5-3): The Bears were injured at UConn but could have maybe pulled off the win if healthy. They’ve had a brutal slate with Tennessee and UConn in two of their last three games.
28. Wisconsin (Prev. 12, 8-2): The Badgers lost a tough home game to Michigan and then had to go to Marquette. Rough week after an 8-0 start.
29. Creighton (Prev. NR, 7-3): The Bluejays are back after winning three in a row, including Kansas.
30. Dayton (Prev. 30, 8-2): Love this Flyers crew. Massive test for them coming up when they host Marquette.
31. Mississippi State (Prev. NR, 8-1): I shouldn’t have dropped the Bulldogs last week. And the convincing win over Pitt was a strong indicator of why that was a mistake.
32. Drake (Prev. 23, 8-0): The Bulldogs haven’t lost. Yes, I dropped them based more on competition, but they don’t appear to be going anywhere.
33. West Virginia (Prev. 32, 6-2): The Mountaineers got a good draw in the Big 12-Big East Challenge with Georgetown. They won’t get tested again until playing at Kansas on New Year’s.
34. Saint Mary’s (Prev. 33, 9-1): The Gaels won at Utah for a quality true road win.
35. Utah State (Prev. 29, 9-0): The Aggies have the win over Iowa in KC but the tests will come soon enough against Saint Mary’s and San Diego State on the road.
36. Georgia (Prev. 36, 8-1): The Bulldogs have one blemish and it's against one of the best teams in the country in Marquette.
37. Rhode Island (Prev. NR, 9-0): Archie Miller told me in the preseason that he thought this would be his best and most competitive team. He was right. The Rams beat rival Providence and will be in the A-10 title chase.

Dropped out: Cincinnati (14), Memphis (17), Pitt (25), Texas (27), Louisville (31), Xavier (34), Butler (35).
Under consideration: Houston, UC Irvine, Texas Tech, St. John’s, Washington State, Loyola-Chicago.

I don't understand the negativity towards ANY of these guys. Kriissa, Williams, Carr, Jaxson...I've seen various posters lambasting all these guys at one time or another.

If you haven't noticed.. this ain't Calipari ball...it's about the team being greater than the individual rather than 'oh he needs to be the only shooter'.

Ease back and enjoy this new style rode as far as it takes us.

We don’t have to stress about our playoff position or making plans for a bowl game

Watching Kansas get beat at Mizzo was awesome but the fans rushing the floor, makes me feel indifferent about the victory.
Would UK ever rush the court at home after a victory?? Iv been to a whole bunch of great victories at Rupp and never even thought rushing the floor. Maybe go down after for pictures, 😂.

Does anyone know where I could get the sweatsuit Lamont Butler had on last night?

Thanks

After he went down the trainer came over and straightened his right leg out while bending his foot backwards also. Indicating trying to relieve a cramp. My question is why was the trainer grabbing his foot with what looked to be little to no concern for the foot if the foot had a fracture in it? I was just watching the replay of the 2nd half and thought this was odd. Seemed like that would be painful as hell and Kerr would be telling him to turn loose of his damn foot if it had a fracture

How likely do you think SEC officials are rethinking the idea of going to a 9 game league schedule? I mean the top teams cannabilized each other this year because of how difficult their schedules were. Only Texas has less than two losses and that's because they had a fairly manageable schedule.

If the SEC goes to a 9 game schedule they could be screwing themselves in the playoffs by only getting maybe 3 or 4 teams in instead of 5 teams that it deserves. Plus it will be rare they ever get the one seed because they will almost always have more losses than the B10 champ.

Slow down otega. Quit progressing so fast and becoming a dominant guard every night you take the floor, we wanna see a senior Oweh. That play in the 2nd half where we were making a run, think we were down 6-8 at the time and he caught a pass from krissa then drove baseline and tried to tear the rim down had me more fired up than any other play in the game and gave me confidence that we weren’t just trying to make it a respectable score, we were going for the kill.

The next 3 teams have 2 losses and the last one has 3. I can't recall this many teams doing this well to start the season. Still about 3 or 4 head scratching losses, but not nearly as many as the conference used to lose.

Definitely going to be a huge battle this season. Losses to each other won't hurt near as much with how highly we are all ranked. I could see a number of 7+ loss teams get high tournament seeds and a few 10+ still getting bids. I'm guessing the conference champ will still have around 6 or 7 losses.

we played to many teams that was no good and beat a Duke team that can be average going to be a long season

Conference play is going to be a war.

We might be lucky too make the field. We can’t rebound play defense and can’t shoot.

Buffet is open for some of you bums!!! Go Big Blue!!! We got our coach AND team!

This is just a ball park estimate based on the following data estimates:

1. Average cost of a season ticket package with K-fund donation is about $1000.
2. Suppose half of the season ticket holders decide not to renew
3. There were 40,800 season ticket packages sold in 2024

$1000 * (40,800 * .5) = $20,400,000 lost revenue


This does not include lost revenue from individual ticket holders, concessions and license merchandise sale as well as parking pass revenue.
You might conservatively estimate these revenue could mount up to at least $5 Mil more.

The point I'm making here, is major college athletics is a business, when you have a coach in a situation like this, considering what it will cost to keep that coach as opposed to the buyout, the cost doesn't look to be quit as much of an obstacle as one might think.

Mark Stoops has done nothing but chatter. He has avoided his last radio show of the season and is not being very visible. He needs to lead. He can do it and he could endure himself to his players, his recruits, his coaches and UK fans everywhere. It is very simple. All he has to say is this one thing. "I love Kentucky and I am really pissed off about what has happened to OUR program under my leadership, I want everyone to know that I am committed and I will work my but off to get it fixed!" I want to announce that I will ask for my salary to be reduced and cut in half - as I admit I have done a half ass job recently. I ask that the other half be put in the NIL fund to help our players and our team achieve our goals. I want it to stay this way for the next 2 years. If we don't have a winning record by the end of year two. I will offer my resignation. I love Kentucky and Lexington is my home - I want to be here and watch UK play as long as I am on this earth!

Go Big Blue!

Is that good?

The second matchup is between the number five seed, Home Alone, and the four seed, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.

When bratty 8-year-old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) acts out the night before a family trip to Paris, his mother (Catherine O'Hara) makes him sleep in the attic. After the McCallisters mistakenly leave for the airport without Kevin, he awakens to an empty house and assumes his wish to have no family has come true. But his excitement sours when he realizes that two con men (Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern) plan to rob the McCallister residence, and that he alone must protect the family home.

As the holidays approach, Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase) wants to have a perfect family Christmas, so he pesters his wife, Ellen (Beverly D'Angelo), and children, as he tries to make sure everything is in line, including the tree and house decorations. However, things go awry quickly. His hick cousin, Eddie (Randy Quaid), and his family show up unplanned and start living in their camper on the Griswold property. Even worse, Clark's employers renege on the holiday bonus he needs.

The first matchup is between the number one seed, It's a Wonderful Life, and the eight seed, Scrooged.

George Bailey has so many problems he is thinking about ending it all - and it's Christmas! As the angels discuss George, we see his life in flashback. As George is about to jump from a bridge, he ends up rescuing his guardian angel, Clarence - who then shows George what his town would have looked like if it hadn't been for all his good deeds over the years.

In this modern take on Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," Frank Cross (Bill Murray) is a wildly successful television executive whose cold ambition and curmudgeonly nature has driven away the love of his life, Claire Phillips (Karen Allen). But after firing a staff member, Eliot Loudermilk (Bobcat Goldthwait), on Christmas Eve, Frank is visited by a series of ghosts who give him a chance to re-evaluate his actions and right the wrongs of his past.

Alabama and SEC can't be happy. ACC with 2- shocking.
