From IC:

"CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – No. 5 North Carolina will tip the ball off against Kentucky at noon on Saturday with hopes of increasing its NCAA record of most wins against a No. 1-ranked opponent to 13.

** Lean your head back, close your eyes and try to imagine this scenario: Roy Williams creates his own website and not only actively blogs on the site, but seeks out feedback from his fan base on how to handle his team’s affairs.

Williams’s love for those “Internet people” notwithstanding, that image is difficult to grasp mentally.

But that is how Kentucky head coach John Calipari operates, and on Sunday, he offered his opinions about the difficulty of scheduling tied to conference expansion.

“This program is too important to over-schedule based on the roster turnover that I believe will continue to happen,” he wrote. “You cannot put this program at risk, not with our turnover and roster. You CANNOT over-schedule and put yourself in that position.”

The blog post was followed with a poll asking fans to vote on which opponent series needed to be canceled or postponed – North Carolina, Indiana or Louisville.

When Williams was asked about the poll on Friday, he responded: “The good thing is we get to vote, too. They’re not the only ones that get to say yes or no.”

Welp, like Christmas, it's finally here. We've been thinking about this since April and now, in two short hours, a future lifetime of sass shall be determined. To paraphrase the bard:

But, gentle heavens,
Cut short all intermission; front to front
Bring thou this fiend of Lexington and myself;
Within my sword's length set him; if he 'scape,
Heaven forgive him too!

I gotta give credit to Henson - I like his style - he just plays, doesn't talk shit and gets in there to do what he has to

UK came out running on adrenaline and Carolina answered. We should work to keep it close to the half and let Cal make some adjustments.

Hate to be goldie about it, but that was not a foul on Zeller. After Miller got his shit packed once, though, I guess the refs had to call that one in Rupp...

Davis isn't having quite as much defensive success against Zeller and Henson..

Not sure, but I gotta say it's nice to see us hitting some outside shots. It ain't like we're torching the nets, but at least we're making some. If you can't do that, you ain't gonna win shit...

Davis has two fouls now so he'll sit. That was my biggest fear.

Lamb and Teague are going to have to step up

Damn, Harrison. This is scarily like last year when Henson picked up his 3rd foul in the first half. We won't see Barnes again this half...
