Game Notes

A WILL TO WIN - AGAIN

All you need to know about this one - which wasn't decided until the final minutes - is what Coach Calipari said to start his post-game radio show: "Welcome to the SEC, right?"

Indeed. We'll have some postgame video from Coach's radio show later tonight.

See you from Gainesville on Tuesday night.


Quote of Note

John Calipari

"When I read (the Sports Illustrated article on John Wall) I said, ‘That’s who he is.’ He has high expectations for himself, he is the last guy to leave our gym, he is the first one in there, comes with a smile, and picks up practice when it’s dying. That’s what he does in the game, when the game is dying, he picks it up. Just like he does in practice.”

- John Calipari

Pre Game Notes

Scott's Scout

The scariest part of today's game for Coach Calipari and the staff has been that Georgia was impressive in its win over Georgia Tech earlier this week. Does that mean they are better than their 8-5 record would indicate? Probably. Does it mean they can pull off the upset today? Probably not.

This will be a game that may be determined by the benches. If Kentucky is able to use its press effectively and wear out the Bulldogs, conventional wisdom says that the Cats have the deeper bench that will contribute more.

This morning's shootaround was another good effort form the team and Coach (and his special guest) emphasized the need to start things off well in conference play. The traditional halfcourt shot to end shootaround was hit by Darius Miller - on a bank shot.
