Tennessee Volunteers [E3] @ Kentucky Wildcats [E1]: Second Half Open Game Thread
It's a busy day today on A Sea of Blue, and a second Open Game Thread is in order.
The Kentucky Wildcats are up big, 32-19 at halftime over the Tennessee Volunteers. Kentucky needs a good second half to head into the SEC Tournament final on a roll. DeMarcus Cousins and John Wall having a big game, and the 'Cats are rebounding the basketball like their very lives depend on it, and given the animation of Calipari so far, they just may.

Waiting for the first post
to bring up “killer instinct”.
OK, I'll bite - we need a TO that quick
Where the killer instinct?
yeah, it is
Although I think my not-exactly-all-that-young-anymore excitement is cool too : ) Seriously, I love, love this about Wall—his animation and enthusiam on the court

You just had to go and get technical, huh?? LOL I'll buy some of that... ;-)

The spilt screen comments stream
is cool….but right now it’s not showing our side of the conversation… Did the switch to a new game thread confuse it?
Yeah...
I didn’t see it till just now…pretty sweet really
I look for
UT to come out with fire in their eyes because I am sure Pearl burnt their butts in the locker room.
stat tracker has UK at ZERO to's...
can that be right?!
only one rule in my house - uk has to be your favorite college bball team

Can't be... Ort threw one away after a rebound. That would have to count as one??

its not right....

After visiting Rocky Top Talk,
I am so glad that the refs are on our payroll. Otherwise, we would be losing. LOL.

how the HELL did he get that...

by UKalltheway2010 on Mar 13, 2010 2:21 PM EST reply actions
we are our own worst enemy
they keep colliding with each other causing the ball to bust loose
Slower Traffic Keep Right!
At least they are hustlin' to get to it! Would rather see that then them standing around...
If your wings don't sweep....
dont fight each other for the ball....it has cost them 4 points this half
Slower Traffic Keep Right!
By my count, approximately 211.
But I think only 1 or 2 have been called.
Not a Liggins
Fan better this year than last but not a UK type player

Even though we're not shooting the 3 really well, at least we're not afraid to shoot it
I use to love Happy Meals, now I love sushi, but I will always love Kentucky!
I think the refs
are letting the teams play rougher but Tennessee hasn’t figured that out, yet. I’m glad we’re adjusting because after watching the Big 10, Big East and Big 12 games they need to learn the physical game. Those conference games were slog fests and the NCAA Tourney will be. too.
i like when they let them play
seems to me like cuz is getting away with alot today

It wasn't that bad of a pass, PP wasn't ready for it

As much as I hate to, I have to blame Spider on that... Threw it too hard!
If your wings don't sweep....
Disagree.........PPAT was not ready and he knew it when he let out the yell after he dropped it
PP is not on all cylinders today
i am not saying the refs are bad but they have called a lot of fouls on UK lately
keeping them in the game

Calling it
like they bet on Tenn IMHO

The charge calls are getting ridiculous.
The referees seem to think that if JP Prince decides to lie down on the floor, he’s entitled to an offensive foul call.
As long as the refs are consistent I don't have a problem
When they call blocking during a critcal junction it will be a travesty with all the charging calls made thus far.
No one
Wants that other 1 seed

Chism is mentally frustrated after that nice 2 ft air-ball!!

this is wrong, and I know it's wrong
but it’s kinda nice to see a little fire inside, Daniel, you know?
Remember us talking about him getting some of Cuz's fire?? Looks like we're getting it!! LOL
If your wings don't sweep....
Just wait till the NCAA tourney
Then the rest of the teams will have to put up with SEC refs
Tony Green
sucks a fat one. I heard cal talking about how you only get top shelf refs in the tourney such as Tony Greene. top-shelf my arse
by jacobbleedsblue on Mar 13, 2010 2:51 PM EST reply actions
Didn't realize
Orton had the hot-head. Hadn’t seen that before – maybe a little attitude rubbed off from Cuz. Kentucky practices must be brutal with those two beating on each other…..with a attitude.
UT is done.
good. I hate those f***ckers

Double T's don't do a thing to settle down the guys
Make a call and stand by it refs!!!!
Sheesh, another great
refereeing job by Tony Greene! If you didn’t know he was calling the game you could guess by the game summary and box score. He’s a joke – they game is about the players, Tony>
we're 9-21 from the freethow line....we'd be ahead
by 25 if we’d hit our freethrows
You can't fix "stupid"!
a2d2 --
my bad. Sooo sorry about that, if you know what I mean.
But, I think that’s a great idea! And, for you, I would totally share. We’re awesome. : )
I didn't see a bad....lol
And YES ….WE are awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Blue... there is no other color to Bleed !!!
But you know we lost everyone else '-)
It’s all good though !!

If Miis St wins later - can you imagine how BLUE tomorrows game will be?
Even if Vandy wins I bet its BLUE
The season
is now a complete success. Destroying the Vols is #1 on my list. Every game after this, including the NCAA tourney is gravy.
Nice game guys...
That was Final Four form. Especially the defense.

I'm serious. The Vols are a good team. Beat you and the Jayhawks.
You just murdered them.

That's what happens when we come out with a good attitude! Now, can we sustain it?? That's the big question!

Attitudes take care of themselves in March, if you know what I mean.
This is what your guys have been waiting for all year.

You’ve got Garcia for two more years, buddy. And Alshon just hauled in another one-handed TD.
In all seriousness, I don’t know how we keep pulling out those close victories against you. I’ll keep taking them, though.

I think we might
be able to find a summer job for Alshon. Maybe – sharpening snowblowers (while running), feeding chipping machines, …… somethin’.
Maybe the next couple of summers. After that, I doubt he'll need a summer job anymore.
But I suppose you wouldn’t know what great football players do after they graduate, now would you? :-)

one dollar to the first person to find a UT post that blames division seeding
29 point loss ain’t tired legs
No matter where you're at, there you are
Thanks Joel...
You guys are gonna be tough in the Tourney, hope we don’t hook up again! Would like some time to pass before we meet you again… ;-)
If your wings don't sweep....
AWESOME GAME..KEEP IT UP...
I told my wife if the cats lose today, i won’t feel like cookin dinner, but w/ this win..its Prime Strip time baby!!! LOL….gotta go light up the grill now….
Congrats Kentucky
No other way to put it, you kicked our butts in the second half. The real difference, before it got out of hand, was UK’s ability to hit the 3’s. They shoot like that, I don’t see anybody hanging with them. Best of luck the rest of the way.
thanks bro....UT hit a wall or something (no pun intended)
this game got ugly in the 2nd

allright kids.....moms and i are going shoppin'
and you know I am hitting her up for some UK gear….talk to ya later
Slower Traffic Keep Right!
Quite the effort
Not even a nut check could deter these kids today. Liked the high five to Orton from Cal. That is the way to beat a team in the tournament, any tournament. Having played them twice already it was nice to see the focus on offense. I swear I see smoke trailing the ball with some of our passes, no wonder we sometimes look sloppy. You’d need a tracking beam to be ready for those heaters. rest, watch tv, play games, study and get plenty of rest for another gut check (no nuts!) at 1E on ABC.
GO BIG BLUE!!!
I have kleptomania,
