Kentucky vs. Tennessee (Second Half Comment Thread)
Kentucky leads Tennessee 36-30, but I doubt I’m alone when I say that first half was pretty meh. Let’s circle the wagons and hope for a more lively second half, shall we?
Something to keep an eye on: Derek Willis was limping slightly at the end of the first half, and that limp is apparently more noticeable in second half warmups…

here we go
Come on Cayts
Skal starting in place of Marcus Lee
Wake up and smell the second half!
For those who lack the capability to smell, it smells a lot like the first half but a few minutes later.
Willis again
Skal! He’s alive!!
Eat it Drew!
EAT IT DREW!
Solid podcast debut TT, I’m down with OTT
Thanks!

What is wrong with Lee
Come on Cats. Let’s bury deez snitches!
So,is Lee hurt?
What’s up with Lee?
This half of basketball is brought to you by Skittles candies.
Skittles candies: Better go get some or you wont have any.
Tyler is 1 – 8 tonight. Very un-Ulis like
Did Willis make that shot before half? The box score had him for 6 points and he made 2 three’s?
Briscoe shooting J’s don’t work…
Lee having back spasms?
Marcus Lee getting a lower back injury worked on
Must have pulled it when stretching for that lob
Questionable to return
Trainer is gloving up to work on Lee.
I envy Marcus! massage time!
we got this
Can Matty tell us if Punter is a real punter???
All it takes to be a punter is to have a desire to punt. In a sense, we are all real punters.
But no. He probably isn’t.
We look discombobulated
REFS SUCK
Marcus Lee lower back injury according to Uncle Matt
What you talkin’ bout Willis?
Derek!
Me too Alex, me too.
Came on here just to request that gif. OTT already on it.
Why isn’t that a travel?
Murray!!
I just don’t understand why they don’t teach free throw shot routine to Briscoe. He never prepares the same way 2 free throws in a row.
MUR AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MUR AAAAAAAAAAA
Willis block! Ulis3!
D Willis
Oh Canada
Ra Ra Ra roolin’ on the Riva
ugh. I’m like a minute behind on my feed, so forgive me if I chime in about something from 4 plays ago…
No sweat Chew
Drew, did you think the NASCAR HOF was kinda lame? I mean it’s OK, but once is enough.
OK Isaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak if you’re going to foul him get your money’s worth.
The Scoefield Kid.
I sure do enjoy a good car insurance commercial. Makes me want to buy a couple more policies for my car. You can never have too many policies; that’s what my grandpa says.
Hump!!
Ulis hurting his scoring avg. tonight
Willis again!!
Just imagine if Humphries had all of Lee’s and Skals minutes?
Oh wow! Willis! 20 points
Willis is the assassin tonight.
the stat line on this game probably keeps Ulis from any real consideration for POY, damn shame.
Doin’ the Humptey Hump!
FLOP!!!!
TERRIBLE call
What’s the major roadway in Bullitt County? Just go ahead and rename it after Derek Willis.
WHAT YOU TALKIN ABOUT WILLIS????????????????????????????
Humphries doesn’t have to run to get out of his way and he doesn’t have to have his feet set. He had position and the UT player accelerated into him.
IZak did not foul him
He’s on FIY-AHH!!!
Tennessee is over the back on every rebound.
Fun Fact: The University of Tennessee has always been in the same place. Nobody ever felt like there was any reason to move it, so it just kinda stayed where it was.
Murray working like crazy to get free on offense
Surviving no Poythress, Lee hurt, not a great game by Lee but still going to beat the spread.
Six away
Good to see Derek hitting buckets
Career-high 20 for him
Skal!
Sweet touch Skal
Drew…..
Grab a spoon Drew
Is Drew supposed to eat something?
every single year they talk about “cleaning up” the game by calling hand checking and physical play down low. If they really want to make the game better they’ll stop calling fouls initiated by the offense. Running into a defender who is standing still and throwing up a wild shot or dribbiling into a guy just to create contact is not basketball. Offensive flopping is killing it…but I digress
Won’t let me write Haitian Nation again? I live in South Florida. It is not a bad thing to say. It is a compliment.
Haitian Sensation!
MT98 for President…
Skyhook Skal!
Tyler sitting
One of the most underrated aspects of Derek Willis’ game is his desire to wear the proper equipment and follow the rules. He has also been throwing the ball at the basket good.
cmon Skal
Skal needs to take ballet lessons. Football players do. It would help his coordination tremendously
Derek gettin’ some love from the WWL.
Doesn’t feel like we are up by 20 for some reason
ref waited to see if it went in first…
Briscoe taking 3 is bad idea
UK 18 free throws UT 25 free throws. Tired of getting jobbed by officials.
UF shot 20 to our 14 and UGA shot 27 to our 22…both at Rupp
Yep AND they are shorter than us in all but one position so how are they guarding so effectively without fouling?
We can’t even get a home called game. Sad.
damn
Confession: I’ve still been in the first half thread.
Ha Ha Ha come on Drew
Sometimes we all need some alone time. It is perfectly healthy.
we have shot way more three’s, hence the disparity
I thought all y’all went home.
It’s a lonely place Drew….
I don’t want to bash Skal, but if he stays next year, I hope he does nothing but weight train in the off season.
He needs ballet lessons!!!!! Someone tell Coach Cal. I know these things.
And eat peanut butter and jelly sammiches.
Just call the morning show and tell Matt to tell Cal, he loves that. Matt is Cal’s go to man for strategery
I think Murray should not be the out of bounds guy for a while…
I really don’t want to be heading to T AM all banged up
And on short rest.
Maybe Cal will practice some out of bounds plays now…….Hate to lose #9 on a turnover.
Yea that great Texas A&M tradition of 52.7% wins all time and a grand total of 3 visits to the sweet 16.
and that has what to do with this year’s team?
It has to do with Seth saying he always is excited to visit schools with great tradition.
Put some Derek highlights on the front page: http://kentuckysportsradio.com/basketball-2/derek-willis-surpasses-his-career-high/
Bullitt COunty Bomber – Tom Leach
Did Willis get a little hurt? It looks like he has been limping a bit.
UK Hoops whoopin’ Mississippi State tonight

I usually mute so I totally get it LOL
Popping the shit back into place….ouch
Little Rickie winning tonight?
Hump! dang
What
.
ugly possesssion
Dang!
TU 2-13 from field
Some people think basketball is all about hitting each other with sticks and stealing people’s scented candles. These people are wrong and I’m not sure how they came to believe such things.
Murray
71!
Willis again!!!
Willis gets more!!!
Haha, good for you, Derek Willis.
7 threes … beauty night. Get him the record.
Murray is amphibious
Ulis!
Willis gettin’ buckets Drew!
Murray!
Team needs to get plenty of treatment and sleep between today and Saturday
Murray’s heart rate hasn’t gotten above 17 all night.
Drum guy
Is Rick Flair there? I keep hearing him during the free throws…
I did my part for National Drink Wine Day, but now I’m sleepy.
When the announcer said he brought a chianti all I could think was “some fava beans and a nice chianit”.
Drum guy is a cool dude
I credit Willis’s success to his girlfriend…(and his Dad). Success is a choice, She chose success for Willis…(My impression<TheG)
That and some interesting trivia he learned from Matty. 😉
the only thing that elevates a Canadian’s heart rate is playoff hockey
Fun fact: that drummer is the one who was “Gif’d” here on the site after Aaron Harrison’s big shot when we beat the Dirty Birds in the tourney 2 years ago.
We need it back
That was a GREAT moment and a hilarious gif. If only we had won 1 more game. *sigh*
Get these wine contemplating A holes off of my TV
Briscoe with 10 rebounds tonight
OMGMattyG is the new Seriously of the comment thread.
Just doing my part to provide hard hitting insight and analysis.
crap
Got to get ready for bed. XOXO
beat the Aggies!!!
later cane!
Ulis stuck on 9?
IF Briscoe could shoot, he’d have about 15…
Humphries has to weakest fouling giant I have seen in years.
Willis, getting his points the hard way!!
********************scratch that!! Ulis
Makes em both
Ulis strip
Humphries has to weakest fouling giant I have seen in years? English translation?
He is big. He fouls like a little girl, i.e. weak. Every time he fouls the foulee has no problem getting the ball up to the basket.
I spy with my little eye one Lonny Demaree on the sideline
If that guy on the radio commercials is Captain Obvious, Matty is a 5 star general!
Ugg Briscoe
Crape, i wanted a 20 point win…..Win and move on.
I think that’ll do it, folks. Enjoy the rest of your night
Not a popular opinion, but this is my favorite TV broadcast team outside of Bill Waltons. SEC love is nice.
bye guys!
The victory cigars ladies and gentlemen.

Cats will lose this unless they come out with more energy. Ulis is playing his worst game of the year so far.
I am serious, this guy has issues.
