a differently called game the second half!!!

What a game! I am so proud of our Cats! There were some bad calls but we also gave a lead away, and our "stars" began to show up down the stretch with not enough time on the clock.
Looking forward to next year's squad, curios to see who comes back, if any. I hope Huphries after this game sees he has an opportunity to start next year-don't transfer, compete for a spot.

Happy for Coach Martin, I do want them to take out Gonzaga, but I'm rooting for UNC to win the championship because of what happen to them last year.

Why on earth would a Kentucky fan want those cheating UNC scumbags to ever win a title?

I hope they vacate wins, banners, and degrees.

thought when we went up 64-59 it was ours for taking.....let UNC score 11 points

It was.

I wonder what the halftime speech was like for the refs as they sure did a lot better second half.

[Jeff ROCKober]

Tough loss but loved the fight. UK had it's chances. The first half officiating completely sucked! Really bad.

[J.Jennings]

Hard to believe we tied it up only to have that kid hit a shot, i was convinced it was going to overtime..Tough loss

Well, I just finished reading this thread and I don't know whether to watch the game or not. I haven't seen a second of the game, but I will watch and evaluate the officials if you guys want me too, but only then. For those of you who know me, you know I will give an unbiased evaluation. So, just say so or no.

JMO, the team that won that game was going to be the champion.

First half was garbage. Bad enough to put us in a hole. We shouldn't have needed late-game heroics, but the officials made it so.

They should hang up their whistles and become meteorologists. It's the only other profession I can think of that allows the "expert" to go unpunished for being flat-out wrong.

I appreciate your opinion, but you didn't answer my question.

I'd like to see your eval. I'm curious about two things: Did more calls go UNC's way than ours? On on a subjective note, was the game called too tight for a regional final? I guess three things...was it consistent? Thanks, I know you will give an unbiased review.

You state that as if you know. For your information, the only people in an officials locker room at halftime are the 3 Officials. There is no halftime pep talk.
