    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Big Nasty:</div><div class="quote_post">KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- One of Kentucky's winning streaks is still alive.

    Chuck Hayes scored off his own miss with 3:49 left in overtime to lead Kentucky (No. 8 ESPN/USA Today, No. 9 AP) to a 69-68 victory Tuesday night over Tennessee.

    Erik Daniels had 19 points and Hayes added 18 points and 16 rebounds for the Wildcats (12-2, 3-1 Southeastern Conference), who had a scare after their 19-game SEC regular-season winning streak was ended Saturday by Georgia.

    Kentucky extended its winning streak on the road in the SEC to 10 games.

    "It was exciting to get this win because we overcame a lot of obstacles. This team showed a lot of heart," Kentucky coach Tubby Smith said. "Against Georgia last week, there was no toughness and we looked worn down."</div>

    Tubby has done a great job replacing Pitino. He is a proven winner and a class act.

    Congratz.

    yeah,that he is. And to think 2 years or so ago the Cats fans were callin' for his head on a platter...well maybe I could see it a little,he played his son alot(who sucked)over a couple more talented point guards...but regardless...good coach.
