IT'S A WINTER WEEKEND

 
So gangsta.
Kentucky has Game Day in Rupp tomorrow but the game is not until 9 pm.  That's late.  I have a bunch of friends who are going to the Game Day thing and the actual game, which means they will not remember any of it because you have to be in Rupp by like 9 am for the ESPN bonanza, which is over by noon.  Then what do you do?  You definitely don't go anywhere on Nicholasville Road, so my guess is those screwballs will go up to the Keys and drink John Wall shots, LITs and Miller Lite all afternoon and night before stumbling back down Limestone to the real showdown against Tennessee.  Man, I miss college.

Speaking of the actual game, UT's in a bit of a quandary.  Lose tomorrow (they will) and there's no chance they get back to the 2 slot in the East.  They'll take a big dive in the rankings.  Their fans will wonder when football practice starts.  These are all good things, except for the fans thinking part, which will probably be very painful and difficult for them.  You won't get that kind of in-depth pre-game analysis anywhere else, folks.

LSU is visiting Vanderbilt in Memorial tomorrow at 1:30 pm EST on SEC Network.  Not sure what that means for Kentuckians, but we'll see.  LSU is absolutely terrible.  Storm Warren's pretty good, and Tasmin Mitchell is old.  Vanderbilt will cruise and tighten their grip on an NCAA tournament bid and a bye in the first round of the SEC Tournament.  "Good show, indeed," Vanderbilt fans will say as they count their money and sip cognac from Waterford crystal snifters.

Have a good weekend! Go Cats, Go Dores, and go watch the Olympics.  TV coverage starts today at like 1 pm, I think. USA! USA!
