Hope we shove a basketball down Cal’s gullet in the reverse direction and make Drake puke and Judd weep. Carry on.

I want this one really bad. Even more so than most years. This game can give our guys some confidence and maybe springboard them to a good run when it really counts. Im sure UK will be more focused after UT upset them. When you play a team as talented as UK it takes a real team effort not just a few playing well. I hope they hit on all cylinders today and play that 40 min game we all have hoped for this year.

Me too

We really need the win and Calipari always needs the loss.

Win this and we’re #2 in the SECT. Lose it and we could be looking at #5 if things fall the wrong way. Just win, baby.

Okay, do this Gators =

1) KJ, drive powerfully for 18 points. Get their star in foul trouble.
2) Nembhard fella, move the ball faster and slash for layups drawing fouls : sore 17
3) Locke in on your 3s to the tune of 4 of 6 plus other points to 14.
4) Scottie needs to control-slash with an eye to score or dish. Be alert teammates. Score 16 for us.
5) Mr. Blackshear, put it to them. Lead the team in scoring with 19.

Or else !! That was fun writing.

A not so great KY team coming into your place wounded, their SEC seeding already set and probably a 3-4 seed nationally. Where as our seed is not set, we are probably on a wider scale seed wise in the Big Dance so we have much more to gain. A good scenario for taking this game.

If we get 84 from just the starters, I’d guess we win comfortably. Not sure we’ve had that scenario the entire season though.

Guess my mind drifted into the realm of our preseason #6 Gators? Hadn't seen them ... What'd White do with our Top-10 players, anyway? Well they need to show up today, and right away.

Where does it say that Hagans is out for the game today? He had a terrible game vs UF in the first meeting. 7 points and 6 turnovers.

He got into with Cal last game. Cal told him to check back in at the 14 min mark of the 2nd half and he told Cal no. They got into it and he ultimately went back into the game and UK proceeded to blow a 17 pt lead in the last 10 min to Tennessee at Rupp and lose
