SLOW PASTE GAME!!!!

I love it..it ain't a VNism, but it should be..

 

[Ron Swanson]

SIAP...last 3 minutes of the game...

 

[Jackcrevol]

Well said, Cucker.

 

[COOKEVOL]

Extra point for using lexicon in a sentence.

In the words of Tom Cruise in "Taps"...

"It's beautiful man!...Beautiful!"

Shouldn’t you be preaching somewhere?

 

[CAVPUT]

The biggest concern I have is that this team played its "championship game" yesterday. Such a huge win, but it's 3 hours from tip and it's UK everywhere. Can this team refocus all that energy and intensity toward auburn or will UK reach out after losing to us yesterday and take us down today? It's as if beating auburn is a foregone conclusion and we're only focused UK.

Or did Kentucky close down due to the loss.

 

[Billy Antrim]

One good thing is Kyle A. should be well rested.

No excuse for him not to play well today

 

[Jackcrevol]

No excuse for him not to play well today

unless we need to go small, and fast with two guards.

 

[Vol464]

Thanks for asking, means a lot.
Having a rough go right now in and out of the hospital but I'm scheduled for April 3rd.
Fingers crossed the first attempt works.

Praying for you as well. Need you hanging around for those kids of yours.

Still grinning eat to ear

 

[bignewt]

Id say work the shot clock today make them defend and chase through screens and picks that will work in our favor.

 

[jakez4ut]

Ok I've been mad at Jay bilas for most of the last 24 hours.

Just listened to him again and I'm gonna cut him some slack.

He would be making the same argument about us if we were currently on the 1 line.. He's not necessarily advocating for or against any particular team as much as he is advocating against any 1 single game suddenly meaning more than the other 30.... For any team.

Which I agree with.

 

[jakez4ut]

Kentucky fans realizing we're better than them..... At everything this year.

But one (actually, three games if we win today) game does make a difference when resumes are pretty close. Although honestly our resume is much better than Gonzaga’s.

We beat another potential 1 seed yesterday. If that game happened in December it absolutely counts towards seeding purposes.

I’m coming to see you in early June

 

[eVOLve]

Another thing to consider.. Refs will probably call a more consistent game. We are the best chance for the SEC to get a #1 seed.

Stay strong. You've got this. You may be an ornery old sob but you're tough as an old boot.

 

[BJHSVol]

I would rather be a 2 seed in the South than be a 1 seed in the West

So if two teams are up for a number one seed and one beats the other head to head, you’re agreeing with him that one game should not make a difference? I know it’s not college football where one game can totally knock a team out of contention, but every game should still matter. It seems especially ridiculous to ignore these conference tournaments altogether. Which, if UT wins today yet still misses out on a one seed, is exactly what’s happened.

 

[LA Vol]

And that's the committee's way out-- give UT a geographically desirable spot while moving the Vols down a line.

It is now!

No... That's not what I'm saying. Abd I don't think he is either. He's not arguing merit.

Just saying that if after 30+ games you believe teams a, b, c, d are the top 4, how does one game change that all the sudden.

The merits of who those teams should be is a different argument...
