That half needs no exposition. It was one of the most dominant halves against a high-quality team I have seen in quite some time.
I want a lot more of this.

But defense was so good that even a dip is still good

seems this happens most games
Opponent comes out and scores a quick 4-5 points and Cal calls timeout with under 2 minutes played.

I had a house full of Big Blue fans, and we really enjoyed ourselves… Big, big VICTORY… We never , ever give up!
"You are what you are and you ain't what you ain't"
This is probably our toughest road test-
And I just knew that the second half was not going to be like the first. Vandy is a veteran team and they gave us all they had. We passed the test the Coach Cal wanted with flying colors. I don’t think anybody in the SEC beats us now… GO CATS!!!

This game also exposed our weakness to zone defense
something Cal can work over before March.
We've seen tons of zone and know how to attack it
I don’t know why it got under our skin today. Usually DM gets to that SEC logo and the zone collapses then dies. (Kinda hard to do that when he’s on the bench with 4 fouls)
The point is when Miller is out
we don’t stand a chance…maybe MKG should step in?
Wondering how we would've fared if it was cuse
and this was a FF game!! Need more than a miller to help us break the defense.
Agreed
Cuse plays a 2-3 better than anybody in the country. They would have beat us tonight if we got into this much foul trouble with them
Ergo.. Cal has some work to do
Dores exposed our weakness and now the coach know what to teach these kids.

How cool would it be to have him get the DPOY and POY?
Certainly showing he deserves DPOY and should be top 2/3 at least for POY…. let alone ROY

Not sure if this has been discussed but....
with 1:18 left in the first Ezli basically punched Teague in the back of the head the ref was RIGHT there….sorry so late but I have not been on the boards as they seem (at least to me) to cause UK to play bad….wow that sounded retarded anyhow did anyone else see this and how did he not get ejected
nice pickup.....

yeah,
I totally missed that. That really makes me mad.
What was Ezeli’s suspension earlier in the year for anyway? I missed it..
I want to say it was academics, but dont quote me on that
