Kentucky beat a ranked team on Senior Night and we did NOT rush the floor. We’ve been there.

HOT DAM WE WON BOYZ.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20132:05 pm

Will Yeguette is Ervin Walker’s human doppleganger

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20132:03 pm

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20132:03 pm

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20132:03 pm

Hits second. UK by 2

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20132:02 pm

Goodwin misses…shock

Jason Jason March 9, 20132:02 pm

Florida misses on Wilbekin forced drive. Under 30 seconds, UK ball. 10 seconds on the shot clock

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20132:01 pm

Now for the FT’s after Florida takes this TO.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20132:01 pm

Goodwin drives and draws the foul.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20132:00 pm

WCS with the rebound after Wilbekin drove like a wild man

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:59 pm

Nobody wants to score. Florida takes a :30, trailing Kentucky 58-57, 1:23 to play

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:59 pm

Archie with the stupid offensive foul.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:58 pm

Florida pitching a 0fer the past 5

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:57 pm

Harrow missed WCS AGAIN!!!! Good lord why doesn’t he ever see that!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:57 pm

Young missed the gimme. Weak.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:56 pm

Second is in-out. UK by 1.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:56 pm

WCS hits the first.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:56 pm

Stein with the lefty miss but is going to the line.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:55 pm

WCS is playing so smart with 4 fouls

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:55 pm

WCS draws the charge!!!!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:54 pm

Wilbekin to…the crowd with the lob.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:54 pm

Poythress barely draws iron with the 3 and WCS throws ther rebound away.

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:51 pm

Tied at 57. 3:58 left. Cats are fighting till the very end.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:51 pm

WCS has worked himself into the place where Noel was…when we lose WCS we go to shit on the defensive end. Noticeable absence.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:50 pm

And Florida turns it over!!!!!!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:50 pm

Buries the second. Tie ball game.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:50 pm

Harrow to the line. Hits the 1st. UK down by 1.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:49 pm

Follows up the great play with a stupid play. I’ll take both from Goodwin.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:48 pm

Goodwin with the steal and flush!!!!! UK down by 2!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:48 pm

Goodwin with the 2. UK down by 4

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:47 pm

Goodwin is 1/2 and UK down by 6

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:47 pm

WCS couldn’t help on the D but Poythress blocked anyway. Goodwin fouled the other way. Misses the shot. Probably misses the FT’s too.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:46 pm

Goodwin with the offensive foul. Not really a foul but it is what it is.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:43 pm

Murphy is etching up in the “Punch in the Face” category every time he screams.

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:42 pm

Wilbekin picks up 3rd foul. Cats still trail 57-50

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:41 pm

WCS is gifted a steal then throws a terrible bounce pass.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:39 pm

WCS is guarding Wilbekin like a guard. Eventually hits a 3 due to a double mismatch.

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:38 pm

Mays backs up his barking with a huge 3-pointer. Now 54-50 UF after Murphy cans a 3

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:38 pm

Murphy with another 3

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:38 pm

Mays ain’t having this ish…nails the 3! UK down 1.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:37 pm

Prather for 2. Florida up by 4.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:36 pm

Murphy with the white on white crime against Wiltjer as he buries the 3

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:36 pm

Great cut by Goodwin on the inbound score

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:32 pm

Polson’s hustle after the miss just got UK the ball back.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:32 pm

WCS back in. Bad call by Cal I think. Just need to work through the run.

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:31 pm

8-0 Gator run and UK 45-38 lead is now 46-45 deficit at 11:16. All after Willie went out with fourth foul

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:30 pm

And just like that, Young gives Florida the lead at 46-45

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:29 pm

Young over Poythress. Alex wants no part of him.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:29 pm

Florida with the 8-1 run.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:29 pm

I’m fairly certain Harrow and Wiltjer had multiple shots the failed to take.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:28 pm

Poythress blocked and Wilbekin for 2 the other way.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:28 pm

The refs screw everyone

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:27 pm

Cauley-Stein picks up fourth foul at 13:42

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:27 pm

Boynton walked. WCS called for a foul. Terrible call.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:25 pm

What the what??? WCS hits the first FT, misses the second but ball goes OOB on Florida!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:24 pm

Nevertheless WCS drives to the rim and draws the foul.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:24 pm

WCS with 3 fouls. Florida will be attacking him from here on out.

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:19 pm

UK leads 40-34 at 1st TV time of 2nd hal

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:19 pm

The Pick and Roll is the easiest play yet is the hardest to defend. We’ve got the personnel but not the mind set.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:18 pm

WCS with the sweet pass to the cutting Harrow with the “dipsy doo” whatever that is

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:17 pm

Poythress with the put-back. Will Yeugette shooting 2.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:16 pm

Why can Harrow not dump off when WFS rolls?

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:14 pm

Goodwin hit the first…but not the second

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:14 pm

Goodwin shooting FT’s. Crossing fingers

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:14 pm

WCS is all kinds of devastating to Young with another block

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:11 pm

UK opens the second on a 4-0 run to force a Florida timeout. Cats up 35-31 with 18:33 left.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:10 pm

Goodwin with the pass!!!!!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:10 pm

Mays poked away from Rosario

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:09 pm

Great move and lay in by Harrow but he needs to find WCS rolling to the rim!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:09 pm

Young wants no part of WCS

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:09 pm

Second half under way

Wayne Wayne March 9, 20131:05 pm

Mays is making sure he gets a proper send off

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:03 pm

Mays, who made 1 of 12 shots in last two games, leads UK with 8 points. Murphy leads Fla with 11 points

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:03 pm

Cauley-Stein had 3 rebounds, 2 blocks, played just 8 minutes in the first half.

Jason Jason March 9, 20131:03 pm

RT @KSRBEvans: Halftime: each team scoring 0.94 pts/possession. UK Effective FG% 43.5%, UF 45.2%.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:55 pm

Sounded like the buzzer went off before the half was over

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:53 pm

All tied up at 31 after one half of play in UK-Florida

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:50 pm

RT @KSRBEvans: Florida Effective FG% currently 43.3%. If that held, it would be its lowest in SEC play.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:50 pm

D was great that possession but Murphy just has it going

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:48 pm

We’re doing a great job of working through the ebb and flow of the game

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:45 pm

Goodwin steal and skying slam. It’s 30-29 Cats and Rupp is fully rocking again. LET’S GO CATS!!!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:45 pm

UK back up 30-29

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:45 pm

Goodwin with the rip and the smash!

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:45 pm

Great pass by Wiltjer

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:44 pm

Polson is a spark plug

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:43 pm

Ruh roh

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:41 pm

Kenny Boynton hits a 3, and Florida’s taken its first lead of the game. 27-24 with 4:25 left in the first.

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:41 pm

And Mays with the missle…missed

Wayne Wayne March 9, 201312:39 pm

Mays!!!

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:36 pm

Harrow and Cauley-Stein both now with two fouls and 7:43 left in the first half, Cats leading Florida 19-16.

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:35 pm

Cats barely keeping a lead after Mays cans a 3 and Cats lead 19-16. some pretty poor officiating right now hurting the Cats though. Gotta overcome it though if they want to play in NCAAs.

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:27 pm

UK is 0-for-2 with 3 turnovers since jumping out to an 11-2 lead. Haven’t scored in 3:30, but Harrow cans a 3 to end the drought.

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:22 pm

Rosario picks Harrows pocket for an easy layup. Its a 7-0 Gator run and Cal class a TO with UK still up 11-9

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:18 pm

11-7 now after Murphy 3

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:14 pm

Kentucky leading 11-2 at first media timeout. Unbelievable crowd right now as helped cause Florida to miss 6 of its first 7 shots.

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:12 pm

A gassed Willie Cauley-Stein goes to the bench

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:12 pm

11-2 after tough Harrow layup

Jason Jason March 9, 201312:11 pm

Already two blocks, two more “alters” for Cauley-Stein in 2:14. Cats lead 9-2.
