You guessed it. We have a Final Four Crew calling today's game.
Tony Greene, Pat Adams, and Doug Shows !

Doug is back and running the baseline in Rupp!

We may be in trouble with these officials. Shows is not going to give UK any calls and even though Tony Greene is normally a good official, he can be wishy washy sometimes. I will take any official before Doug Shows.

The one thing we have going for us is we have the home court advantage and playing in Rupp with our fans is huge. I like our chances whoever the refs are.

I'd dare say this will be the loudest crowd, maybe all season. Students have been lining up since Thursday morning. They've been camping out for front row seats in the Erruption Zone!

North Carolina in Rupp is always a highlight game and always will be.

I'm just thinking, with the exception of Florida, it's probably the last big GAME of the season!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-13-2014, 11:17 AM:

I think Cal would say every home game we play is a big game and that's the way it should be.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-13-2014, 11:20 AM:

TO be a successful team you have to win a minimum of half your road games and all of your home games.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-13-2014, 11:22 AM:

I think Cal might disagree with that statement. Winning half your road games wouldn't hack it.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-13-2014, 11:22 AM:

For our Cats, I say win all of the home games and lose no more that 2-4 road games!
Remember, this is an exceptional year!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-13-2014, 11:24 AM:

Hope your right except I sure hope we do better than 4 loses with talent we have.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-13-2014, 11:33 AM:

Unless I'm mistaken, and we completely fall apart, we shouldn't lose 4 games this year. But who would've guessed we would lose double digits last season and still make the championship game?

JOE HALL USED TO SAY IN ORDER TO WIN THE CONFERENCE YOU MUST WIN ALL YOUR HOME GAMES AND SPLIT ON THE ROAD, HE USED TO SAY U COULD NOT LOSE NO MORE THAN 5 SEC GAMES TO WIN CONFERENCE, THAT DONT WORK NOW U CANT LOSE THAT MANY AND STILL WIN SEC.

Posted by SCWC (Member # 2464) on 12-13-2014, 04:34 PM:

The only conference team I have seen that could possibly match up with us for a while is LSU but I clearly expect our depth to wear them down. They are big inside and play a lot like Texas.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-13-2014, 09:05 PM:

I haven't see any SEC team play but with the talent we have there is "no way" that any of them can match up with us. They may play us close but it won't be because of their talent.

I watched Florida play Kansas last week. I think that's who they played. Had a huge double digit lead at the half and then lost the game in the second half.
Florida isn't nearly as deep and doesn't have the shooters they normally have

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-13-2014, 09:16 PM:

It's hard for even teams like Florida to have good teams year in and year. Billy does a good of job in recruiting most every year but this year it's down a little bit. I wouldn't sell him short as his teams always seem to improve as the season goes on.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-13-2014, 09:22 PM:

Oh, I'd say by the time we play Florida they will be twice as good as they are now!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-13-2014, 09:28 PM:

Wow, that will make them a decent team.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-13-2014, 09:30 PM:

I do see they lost to Kansas by 6 at Kansas.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-13-2014, 09:33 PM:

Oh I think they will be a decent team. We are talking about a Billy Donovan coached team.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-13-2014, 09:50 PM:

Billy D is a heck of a floor coach and all his teams will not back down.
