Softcore chicken porn. Ohhhh yeahhhh.
Tale of two games last night, right? Vanderbilt, still slightly hungover from their loss to Kentucky last Saturday I assume, had their hands full with a scrappy Georgia team that pushed them to overtime. I saw most of the game, but then Kentucky came on TV and I sort of caught the overtime part by way of highlights. As I predicted, Vanderbilt had to tough this one out thanks to the heroics of Trey Thompkins et al. Georgia outshot and out-rebounded the Dores by a pretty good margin, requiring Vanderbilt to ultimately rely on the nerdiest of offensive weapons, the free throw line. Good win for the Dores, but they'd better remember they have to bring it every night if they want to improve their NCAAT seeding.
Kentucky, on the other hand, more or less dismantled South Carolina, although not in the "kill you dead" fashion that I had hoped. People (John Calipari) have sort of complained all year about this team's lack of a killer instinct, and it almost reared its head in the second half. Kentucky was up about 16 at halftime and managed to lose ten of those points for a good stretch before really putting it away at the end. Downed, as I predicted, got his, making some absolutely ridiculous shit. I don't care how closely you guard that guy, he could make 15 footers with a mosquito net hanging over him.
/Shot still goes in.
Still, all was not lost. Patrick Patterson has finally found his offense again, which is awesome. Cousins had another double-double. Darius Miller had what I think was his best game of the season. There was a Krebs sighting. All of those things were good. Yay Cats.
A little bit later today I'll do some short and almost unnecessary previews for Tennessee and the Devil Pigs, so keep an eye out for that. Go Cats and Go Dores.
