His hands are letting him down. If he could catch the pass clean he could go right up with it.

Thad Matta was the best thing to happen to OSU athletics in a long, long time.

I think Mich. State must be going for the #1 RPI in the nation with no wins

Who's next on their schedule...the Dallas Mavericks?

And they have yet to set foot on their homecourt.

My first time seeing this Kentucky team.

They're really going to have a hard time in the tourney with their lack of outside shooting. Athleticism will take you far but gosh, can they shoot?

Don't tell me Davis is their best shooter.

^they don't have a lack of outside shooting. They've got 3 guys that could realistically shoot 50% this season (Miller, Lamb, Wiltjer) and the rest of the team except for Vargas could shoot at a 30-35% clip. Don't know why Davis is shooting those long shots, it's supposedly a big part of his game but it's not what they need from him

50% from the field??

I'm talking 3 point range.

That's been UK's downfall the last few seasons. They'll out athlete everyone, but when a team locks down the paint and forces them to shoot long range, they can't.

^Me too.

Lamb shot 48.6% from 3 last season and Miller shot 44.3%. they could both very realistically improve, especially Lamb who's only 1.4% off.
