Kentucky vs KU game thread

No way that should be a flagrant 1 foul. He wasn't trying to deceive anyone.

I think that was a case of the monitor hurting the game. In slow motion it looked like a hook and hold, but in real time it was nothing more than a common foul, IMO.

Wins over Kansas are ALWAYS good wins.

Great win, any win against KU is a very good thing.

That's the way I saw it. The officials have no choice but to go to the monitor because they are told to do so.

That is what you call toughing it out. We shot awful, but hit huge shots when we needed to. We owned the glass. 3 double doubles,

Travis was the man. Kept us in the game when nobody could throw it in the ocean. He was great all game.

Washington was just tough. Hit tough shots, grabbed boards. Terrific

Hagans continues to be the difference in this team. And git big shots.

Johnson was a quiet assassin.

Herro had an awful offensive game but it was his defense that got overlooked in this one.

Gritty win. I think we're better than them even on a neutral court.

Big time win. Herro completely took Vick out of the game and not many guys have done that. Richards and EJ both continue to give us decent minutes and Reid is back to Reid. It seems like we've figured it out.

He ruled the boards and played an outstanding game, but KU had no length to give him problems. Now if Travis can duplicate tonight's effort against a taller opponent, I'll give him more credit.

I agree almost totally. As you said, Herro had a great defensive game, and he only had 6 points. But he had 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 foul, 3 TO's and hit both his FT's. That's a fairly good nights

He's just a darn good basketball player. He isn't the type to let a bad shooting night effect the rest of his game. He seems to understand if he isn't hitting shots he needs to work harder at the other stuff to continue to help the team.

Reid kept us in the game the first half. We would have been way down at halftime if not for him.

Glad to see the W. We needed to beat KU. We owed them for a couple of years now. Happy that Herro had a bad game shooting but still did many things to help us win. Hope we keep it rolling down in Nashvegas.

The assist Herro got on that pass to Travis was a classic highlight.

Was at the Murray State game last night so wasn't able to listen to UK. No longer have cable so I can't watch. It does read like they played well. Go CATS!!!!
