GOG 2009-10 #23: Alabama
Kentucky is about to enter the most difficult stretch of the season with 2 games against Tennessee, @Miss. St, and @Vandy. While Alabama isn't quite on par with those squads, this is a much improved Crimson Tide team with some solid wins. It should be a good test for the Cats.

This is the 134th matchup between Alabama and UK. UK leads the series 98 - 35 and has won 3 in a row against the Tide.

First time I shot her, shot her in the side.
Hard to watch her suffer, but with the second shot she died...

It's frustrating when you know all the answers, but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.

It is not worth an intelligent man’s time to be in the majority. By definition, there are already enough people to do that.
