So far so good. On pace for 92...and the way KU plays/wins at home we may need 90+ to hang on in this one. Gotta keep being aggressive.

Get those boys some fluids. Don't want anyone cramping in the 2nd half in that hot gym.

Also, shooters be ready because we will see zone in the second half. They absolutely can't stay in front of our guards in man to man.

We could be up double digits if we didn't have those 3 or more careless travels and a double dribble.

6 point Kentucky lead at half. I didn't hear anyone say they saw that coming. Although games aren't won at the end of the first half, they flat-out out-played KU on their home court that first half, I know that much from what I just saw.

It will be the most interesting second half of the season in any game I've yet seen coming up. Should be for all of us.

Stay strong and poised, Cats. We can win this one. Let's stay tough and strong and keep workin' hard and try to pull off yet another amazing win in Lawrence !!!

Go Big Blue !

That is all

When it is obvious that the opponent can't stop you, you tell your teammates to get out of the way because you can score whenever you want.

Ulis had plenty of help too. Poythress has nine points. Murray and Briscoe have eight apiece.:clap:

I just wish Dakari had stayed he would have made a big difference for this team.

Make no mistake, the second half will be a dog fight.

That being said, we had 3 or 4 careless walk turnovers, Brag and Diallo hit 4 outside shots for KU, and we are still up 6 at half. I do think Ulis will need Murry to step up and help in second half. KU's halftime adjustments had to focus on Ulis.

Anybody else cracking up at Bilas acting like getting the first possession in what'll be a 100 possession half is some major advantage? I think he's been watching too much football.

Yeah normally Jay is good but I did find that a bit odd.

The game has been back and forth the majority of the half and the last two mins is somehow gonna decide the game? lol Maybe but I doubt it lol

LOL at people complaining about rebounding . When you shoot over 60% there aren't many rebounds to get. We are playing great beyond a few dumb turnovers.

In a game of this magnitude, going up by another two or three to start the 2nd half could be huge.

I just wish Lee would find some way to provide some positive contributions. He looks lost on the floor even more so than Skal.
Lee simply gives us nothing on either end of the floor. All he really does is gives another big a breather, nothing more.

What's up with Lee? He's borderline unplayable now
Over reaction much? He has had a bad 2 game stretch since he has gone to the bench which is understandable but Skal has played better so it has evened out . Lee just needs to find his confidence again no biggie.

True but it's not the offensive rebound DIFFERENTIAL, but the fact they've gotten so many on their side

Need to stay in front and make some stops
