We're in some trouble again. Kentucky took the early lead 11-0, but Cincinnati fought back and now has the lead 35-33 at halftime. Rondo is looking good with 10 points and 2/2 from beyond the arc. Sparks has 8 and is 2/3 from three. Nick Williams is really tearing us up from three by going 3/3 with 11 points. We were playing great offense early, but once Hayes and Azubuike went out due to foul trouble, Cincy took advantage. We are rebounding good as well. Now, let's just go out in the second half and beat the heck out of them!
This game keeps going back and forth. I wouldn't be surprised to see it go into OT. I thought Kentucky would breeze through the Bearcats, and after they went up by 11 I was expecting a blowout. The Bearcats got back in the game by getting to the charity stripe. They have the edge 15 to 4 in that category.
KENTUCKY WINS IT 69-60!!!! The starters came up big tonight, baby!!! Freshman came up big! Rondo 16 points/7 assists and Morris had a double-double with 11 points/10 boards!!! Next we'll play Utah Thursday!!!
Talk about brickcity, Cincinnati seemed like they missed their last 13 shots. They couldn't buy a bucket. Looking forward to see Mr Bogut match-up against the Kentucky frontline.
Your right Allnet, Cinncy just went ice cold at the end. Absolute horrible time for them to stop hitting shots.
Well, I definitely am not complaining...haha I expect Morris and Hayes to double down on Bogut most of the game with 7'2 Shagari Alleyne coming in to help out as well.
LMAO!!! I was just watching the local news and it had Eric Hicks on there and he said that it's a shame that he had to lose like this, and he said that Cincinnati was by far the better team. haha Why does Cincinnati want a piece of us so bad? Are they jealous of us or something?
This was a great game. It is most likely being overshadowed by the game that followed it. Kentucky led early, but they never seemed like they wanted to put it away. Did anyone find it funny that White and Azubuike both missed wide open dunks? I mean, those are two great dunkers, and they both just bricked them. Sigh, too much air. Rondo came up big for Kentucky in the end, and that was what put it away. And yes, Cincinatti was ice cold nearing the end.

The refs reallyy stubk it up tonight and when the refs called a bad play Coach Thuggins would find a way to make them reverse it. Tubby didn't work the sidelines one time, but we had to fight and claw to win this one, and it definitely makes me feel good! We shot 51% against the best defensive team in the nation and weshut them down when needed! Utah, here we come!
