Aidoo is going to be a player!

 

[Voltopia]

Really wish UK could have missed that last 3

And every other three they ever take ever in history please and thank you.

 

[TomcatVolFan]

Good first half. I have to agree with Coach...we need to finish lay ups. We need to play 40 minutes guys. I smell blood. Let's beat these kittens to a pulp.

 

[walkenvol]

Like how Uros is leaning on Tshiebwe. Keep Tshiebwe in check and we win!

I thought the ball was in the cylinder end of Duke game.

 

[wmcovol]

Tennessee played 19:55 and only shot 2 foul shots from playing. They shot 4 total until KC last 2 but 2 were the technical foul on Cal.

Meanwhile Ky shot nothing but fouls for about 10 minutes.

 

[eVOLve]

Wow, what a half. My palms are sweaty.

Knees weak, arms are heavy..

 

[Creeker]

The expensive bottle has been broken out of the cabinet. Don’t make me regret it Vols!

 

[Namorto1]

That was a beautiful half of basketball. I think they forgot about Chandler late in the half on the offensive end too much but overall what can you say. Kentucky isn’t playing badly either. We were just impressive.

I saw that and agree. Duke gonna get all the calls

 

[orangejuice]

I thought the ball was in the cylinder end of Duke game.

Absolutely agree. Not sure how they came to the conclusion they did other than DUKE.

5 vs 8 will be huge in the 2nd half. Even bigger than it was in the first half. We had 4 non-technical free throws to their 9, even with us aggressively attacking while they play hack an arm defense.

 

[walkenvol]

Fulky looking good and Aidoo giving us some good minutes - The Dog must be howling!

I thought the ball was in the cylinder end of Duke game.

Thought so too, at least not definitive. Hard to believe there wasn’t part of the ball over the cylinder there

 

[Mr French]

I thought the ball was in the cylinder end of Duke game.

I didn't. The replay from the backboard made it look outside the rim

 

[vol94]

Feels like Tn should be up by 20

Yeah but I’ll take it. KY is able to get to the line against most teams. 2nd half will be tough as the Cat with two fouls will play most of the 2nd half. He is a hand full.

 

[AthensVol2007]

Stat of the night:

If we hold on, it’ll be the 2nd time we’ve beaten UK in Knoxville after losing the game at Rupp, while I’m in Mexico and unable to watch the game. That will officially make it a trend and will necessitate I go to Mexico every time we play UK in Knoxville.

Gotcha

 

[Voltopia]

I thought the ball was in the cylinder end of Duke game.

It was, not by much but it was. If they had an overhead camera they would have seen it. But some people struggle with spatial reasoning and depth perception, and some officials with Duke at home. So.

 

[Bigorange123]

Kentucky getting out benched

 

[Volstylexx]

Knees weak, arms are heavy..

Lol.

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

Uros can’t play vs anyone athletic. I love the guy too. Just isn’t athletic enough.

We are winning with shooting. I want to see us attack the rim in the second half.

Like I tell my wife, I’m not superstitious but I’m a little stitious!!! DO IT!

Can’t really tell by that angle. It was close

 

[wmcovol]

Absolutely agree. Not sure how they came to the conclusion they did other than DUKE.

The same guy tapped the ball in the cylinder then slammed it. That’s why I think it’s legal. If another player had tipped it first, then it was goaltending.
