-jumped in the shower after the travis travel...so as to change up the mojo. Got out and saw that the kates won. You're welcome. Just doing my part.

 

[Irish Beck]

The best part of last night is that Luke Maye can finally retire and spend time with his grandchildren.

 

[catlanta33]

Guys, need some help. I see the games/times but can't find when UNC plays Sunday. Any idea?

 

[catlanta33]

Found it.

SUNDAY, MARCH 31

• No. 2 Kentucky vs. No. 5 Auburn | Midwest Regional | 2:20 p.m. | CBS | Watch Live
• Sprinkles
• No. 1 Duke vs. No. 2 Michigan State | East Regional | 5:05 p.m. | CBS | Watch Live

 

[BleedBlueCats21]

Ian Eagle and Brian Anderson are dope.

 

[wildcat1973]

When are we going to start holding White Tyler accountable?

 

[DoubleSecretProbation]

So you all think UK is going to go ahead and give Tyler the keys to the Theta house now or wait until the team gets back from Kansas City?

 

[WynnDuffy]

I achieved a state of pirate drunkenness last night such that by the final two minutes I had to cover up one eye in order to eliminate the double vision.

 

[BKH34]

Wofford and Houston had top 20 offenses according to most metrics. Neither cracked 60 against Kentucky. There's some stuff I don't trust with this team, but right now defense isn't on that list.

Scoring on 6 of 7 trips to end the game will work too.

Saw something on Twitter where a guy from UVA did a 10-year, 1,000-game sample of times where a team played another team for the third time after winning the first two. They won the third game 72% of the time.

It's doable, and it will be done.

 

[UKRob 73]

God, clean it up. Pirate drunk or not.

Pretty bold talking to your boss like that. Might be getting called into his office first thing Monday morning

 

[catlanta33]

They'll be rallying and expect them to come out farred up for Okeke. Fully expect a fouled 3 pt shot in first minute and a quick foul on Peej or Reid.

We really need Hagans to figure shit out. Trust IQ way more right now. He's cool, calm and collected and will be fine to set up the offense against a team that literally watched UNC blow past them over and over.

But, that's not Cal.

How is that relevant again?

Hope CBS has the sense to stagger it with the Vols tip-off..

 

[wildcat1973]

At least we're not trying to beat a team for the 4th time to make the Final Four...a la 1986 vs LSU.

 

[TCPUKChamps]

So some local Columbus anchors brought up that Columbus has hosted the first 2 rounds 5 times since 2004. No team that's advanced out of Columbus won their Sweet 16 game.

2004:
#9 seed UAB confused lost to #4 seed Kansas 100-74
#5 seed Illinois lost to #1 seed Duke 72-62

2007:
#4 seed Southern Illinois lost to #1 seed Kansas 61-58
#5 seed Tennessee lost to #1 seed Ohio State 85-84

2012:
#1 seed Michigan State lost to #4 seed Louisville 57-44
#11 seed NC State lost to #2 seed Kansas 60-57

2015:
#5 seed West Virginia lost to #1 seed Kentucky 78-39
#3 seed Oklahoma lost to #7 seed Michigan State 62-58

2019:
#1 seed North Carolina lost to #5 seed Auburn 97-80
#2 seed Tennessee lost to #3 seed Purdue 99-94

I bet that guy is a delight at parties.

 

[BKH34]

Just trying to take the cliche of "it's hard to beat a team three times in a season" out back and shoot it, that's all.

 

[UKRob 73]

We win that game last night?

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Watched the game in a hotel room... in the dark... with the game on mute... with young children and my wife in the room that were trying to sleep. If we had lost that game I'm pretty sure I would have put the remote through the wall.

This is maybe the most pathetic thing I’ve ever heard. Good lord Wayne. What a pussy.

How did we win that game? Just terrific play from our stars in the clutch.

 

[BleedBlueCats21]

When the hell is someone going to make a video of the PJ block and Herro dagger set to titanic music? It's been nearly 2 hours for crying out loud.

KY Clips came through.

 

[VernHatton52]

<— hung out with Rudy Macklin on Friday. Good dude.

That's because he's from my neck of the woods. My dad and uncles played with him in the neighborhood growing up. He went to Shawnee High School, same as Tom Payne. His jersey hangs in LSU's rafters alongside Pistol, Petit, and Shaq.

What would you have done in that situation Mr Toughy?

 

[Hankshaker]

When are we going to start holding White Tyler accountable?

Ahem, he's an ally.

 

[_Chase_]

No hotel bar, Wayne?

 

[cawoodsct]

What would you have done in that situation Mr Toughy?

He would never be in that situation.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

What would you have done in that situation Mr Toughy?

Told them to deal with it? Gotten another room. Watched it at a bar. Watched it on my phone outside the room.

Any number of things, really. Just cannot fathom watching a game of that magnitude like that, different strokes I guess.

 

[catlanta33]

That's definitely a not a vet move, Wayne. Clean that shit up.

 

[UK_ENGR1]

Not gonna lie, I love these...

 

[SAECATFAN]

Wayne grew up a UK fan in the cradle of Tobbaco Road, attended UK and stuck around in Louisville to raise his family.

Have always respected that about the prick.

 

[WayneDougan]

Extenuating circumstances....

• 7AM flight the next morning
• Not within 5 miles of a bar
• Assumed I’d be able to watch in lobby

 

[wcc31]

Hate to pile on, Wayne, but there are some things that are nonnegotiable.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

I don’t consider other people’s feelings/situations when it comes to UK sports. That’s probably not good, but I’m fine with it, as anyone who’s important in my life already knows the drill.

See if you can clear your schedule tomorrow around 2 bud, it will be worth it.

 

[OnUK]

I feel like EJ had a huge impact in the first half. His length threw off a lot of shots.

 

[catlanta33]

Wife's friend staying here for the weekend. She was looking at an earlier flight out tomorrow after last night.

 

[wcc31]

Quick has his limitations but that dude has some intangibles, too. Program guy.

 

[catlanta33]

I feel like EJ had a huge impact in the first half. His length threw off a lot of shots.

He did exactly what was needed. Stepped out on 3's, didn't leave his feet early and got the ball to the guards.

 

[krazykats]

I was on edge pretty bad yesterday and the wife suggested I go elsewhere to watch the game and gambol because the nieces and nephew were coming over.

6 kids running wild and my pregnant wife knew that wasn’t where I needed to be, and knew none of these people needed to see me like I get.

Ended up going 4-0 against game spreads, but lost the halftime UK +2, clearly going against my own gambol logic.

Had a blast except that 2nd half collapse.


PJ————>Herro—————>Next!

 

[BristolCat]

Can't stress enough how much more I enjoy Nick and EJ when they're peppered in for 2 minutes here and there instead of playing 10 minute stretches. No more stumbling around like they learned to walk yesterday. They come in, get a board or block a shot, go back to the bench where I assume Cal gives them a treat and they can sit down next to Color Me Bradd for another half hour.

 

[wcc31]

When are we going to start holding White Tyler accountable?

He’s shooting 18% from three in the tournament. Huge shot, excellent D and great overall game. I think he busts out tomorrow.
