Kentucky 64, UConn 61
The Legend of John Wall continued with 25 points tonight, as he scored 12 of the last 15 points in the game. Kentucky is 3 wins away from #2,000, all-time. John Calipari's 9-0 start is the best start for a new UK coach since Adolph Rupp started out 10-0 in 1930, but even though the last two wins have been against top 15 teams, Calipari has hardly anything positive to say about his team. I love it, because we're KENTUCKY. This is how things are supposed to be and this is the way we are supposed to carry ourselves (as players and coaches) until we bring home #8. Everybody has nothing but praises to give about this team, and the second that Calipari starts to praise them too, our team will be feeling TOO good about themselves and probably lose a game. Cal knows the Indiana game on the road is another new test for this young team and he isn't going to let them feel overconfident.
As a fan, however, doesn't it feel great to finally be able to "pump our chests out and claim our rightful place atop the mountain of college basketball"?
Sorry I'm not able to post much on the game tonight, but isn't this funny? Just skip the beginning and click at the 1:34 mark on the video. Nice prediction there, Hubert.
I heard all the same non-sense from all my UK hating friends. It's funny how quiet they are now! haha
