When you don’t miss a shot for the first 11 minutes, that’s a good start. The middle and end were solid for the Cats as well, which is exactly what the title-hungry BBN wants to see: dominating performances for 40 minutes…you know, like National Champions do. Speaking of playing like a champ, Anthony Davis is clearly waiting for Monday, April 2nd in New Orleans to drop that elusive triple-double. He HAS to be, right? 18 points, 8 boards and 7 blocks(& 3 assists) tonight for the big guy, showing no ill-effects from the beating he took in Baton Rouge. The kid is tough. The kid is GOOD.


Terrence Jones(11, 6 &3) continues to be the man of our championship dreams, playing with the heart and desire of a leader on the hunt for a ring. Teague is steadily putting doubters in their place, running the team without trying to over-do it. MKG was MKG(16 & 8), put on a good show for Mamma. Darius had some nice moments, the guys are clicking. Tennessee was held to a season-low in points, UK shot 24 of 27 from the line, Randall Cobb was the “Y,” all is right with the world.


If the ladies can handle UT in Knoxville, that would be 5 in a row over the Vols in Men’s/Women’s bball and football. Here’s a fun fact from Twitter to marinate on while we get the postgame vids, enjoy.

  1. I do not like the grey uniforms. Go back to blue and white

    • Believe it or not Malcomb, the original UK uniforms were blue and YELLOW. Think old-school Rams of the NFL. While I prefer the traditional Blue and White, I’ll take grey, or “platinum,” over yellow. Right?
