Wenyen just air balled a free throw, JWORLD.

Its a W but a hard fought one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vegas nailed the line.

We win, but it's tough to feel good about it. Definitely didn't convince anyone that we're deserving of a one seed (maybe not even a two for the people who still have us on the three-line).

Just can't get too excited about the tournament when we're starting games in fifteen-point holes.

I have not seen a miss like that since 6 year YMCA league! I am not sure you can shoot it shorter?

And maybe the best thing about that game: the way Fox played in the second half. Total stud and makes this team very hard to beat.

If Monk is Good Monk and Fox plays like that, this team could make a run.

Optimist, meet pessimist.

Yeah, the slow starts have to change.

But outside that first 4 minutes or so Kentucky did some good things. Defensively this team has made some strides in the last two or three weeks.

Honestly, the only positive I got from this game was the win and we won without Monk.

We are now in one and done games and playing pretty awful on offense.

We started again down by 15?? I firmly believe this team needs to come out and press for the first 5 minutes of the game, something has to change. Florida, Vandy, now this game??

Press........ Start off the game and get after like we did against Vandy in the second half, something has to give...

Then we aren't we? Not being snarky; serious question, because I know we can, too. Did it the first time to the tune of a 48 point win.

Because Cal choses to grind. I hate the grind.

[Jeff ROCKober]

Kennedy had a great game plan. Monk had some open looks in the second half but they just would not go down. Texas A&M really played Monk well in the first half. Hawkins with a great first half and Fox scored well in the second. Fox's assists are way down but Briscoe with a solid game everywhere except on the freethrow line.

Willis had a nice day today.

Another gritty win. I do like that this team seems to be getting tougher. But still not looking very fluid so I am cautiously optimistic of the play for this coming weekend.

It's tourney time now. Hopefully these guys don't think these starts are OK....

[TrueblueCATfan]

wasn't pretty...but a win is a win.......GO CATS!!!!!
