if Kansas had any kind of production from beyond the 3pt line they'd be a completely different team
If no one comes from the future to stop you from doing it, then how bad of a decision can it really be?

UK still up 12 with under 7 to go. I have to admit I thought UK was going to blow it open in the second half, but they haven't given up any ground. Time is running out for KU. Tick-tock, tick-tock...

I guess Pitbull stopped partying in the club with Dr. Pepper and has embraced Bud Light.

"if Kansas had any kind of production from beyond the 3pt line they'd be a completely different team"

Shooting better than 50% from the ft line wouldn't hurt either. Not that they've shot a ton, but if they'd hit a few more, they might at least be within single digits, which at least would give them a psychological boost. It was going to take more than psychology for them to win this one, but they don't even have that...

UK came up off the throttle a bit, though, too. They are not pushing as much, but also running good sets in the half court, for the most part. It's a false closeness.

Kansas are bumbling oafs. UK could walk off the court at this point and still win

Kansas has hung around here in the second half, but when you're down 14 at the half, hanging around ain't gonna get it done...

Jones would've hit that shot if he had a chin...no question.

UK fans must now endure a moment of angst. Until Gilcrest or Lamb hits a 3 or Davis gets a dunk. Nobody is going to remember or care that it wasn't quite the blowout that it was looking to be for awhile, UK is going to coast into a national championship but nobody can ever take it away from them. Doesn't matter if you win by 1 or 100...

That's the game right there. Down 7, you can't turn the ball over there. UK scores here, it's over...
