...and that game the super-intense rivalry match-up with Louisville which absorbed all the Cats' focus, then I would suspect was followed by an enormous psychic exhale and a time to get away from the pressures. Some of us predicted rust, but in retrospect it was more than that -- a certain degree of mental flatness was inevitable.
With Ole Miss hitting shots NBA teams pass on as low percentage, having three guys playing very well offensively, and with the whole team exhibiting remarkable looseness and energy, it is a testament to the Cats' unwillingness to fold that the team got out with a win at all.
Make no mistake, despite not playing perfectly by any means (missed foul shots, some defensive lapses) the Harrisons won this game for Kentucky.
All-in-all, lots of positives to take away and use going forward. Kentucky needs the Harrisons to be leaders and I think they were that last night.
