Game Thread: Michigan VS. Kentucky

[TrollyMcTroller]

Tipoff: 5:05pm in Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis IN.

Pretty sure Nantz is on play by play. Greg Anthony and Tracy Wolfson along for the ride.

I can't seem to be able to find the officials for the game. Anyone know?

Either way you know they will suck..

Yeah, but I at least like to know who it is I'm yelling at. But I haven't been very impressed with the officiating in this tournament.

Sucks for UK that Cauley-Stein is out... he doesn't score a ton of points, but is one of the best defenders and all around players on the team.

Going to be a tough sled for UK.... I just hope they don't show Ashley Judd every 10 secs if she is there... can't stand her.

Also just a quick glance of the crowd looks to be a ton of blue with a spattering of yellow here and there.

Both teams are crippled and incomplete at this point.. So whoever wins all the more power even if they are huge underdogs the rest of the way..

Understatement of the year.

Between the Michigan game and the Zona game last night it has been turrible...

Who is out on Michigan for this game? Other than the big guy who has been out all year.... is someone in their core rotation out?

Yeah but he has been out for most of the season hasn't he?

Yes but I think Michigan was more of a legit team with him..

Meh, I think Cauley Stein is a goon. I'm sure if (and a big if) UM wins the talking heads will be blaming it on his inury.

A lot of people are saying they've been better without him. Other guys have been forced to step and play a bigger role.

I won't... unless it is very close. I still think Michigan blows them out (e.g. 15+)

If it ends up being a 1 pt game... then yeah, Stein could have been the difference.

What a shit call

 

[SEC Official]

Case in point... Michigan hit another 3. UK is slow at closing out and with Stein down, they don't have the same size / speed available.

Who is lee? I watched Florida play these guys 3 times this year... and watched numerous other UK games and haven't really seen his name called EVER.

Where did he come from?

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

I honestly don't think WCS is as huge of a loss as everyone is making it out to be..

 

[SEC Official]

Jesus... Lee again.

WTF... I watch a lot of SEC basketball and haven't seen him as a factor all year.

God why can't Horford be like his Brother?
