Also sitting directly behind Jamal Mashburn today. He's tall. Still vividly remember watching him as a kid.

Before maybe Anthony Davis, the best UK player of my lifetime IMO.

Mash is tall and wide. If he stands up, Matt May not only won't see the game it could be a solar eclipse.

No worries about UK being tight for this game. During early warmups they had their own slam dunk fest, lobs left and right. Typically don't see that.

With the way Florida wore them out last week I'm surprised the coaching staff would allow something like that.

I think Florida is the better matchup for UK as opposed to Bama. I think Bama would have tried the rough and tumble approach that LSU tried to employ yesterday.
Gators too soft for such things
Plus, I think Florida doesn't have anyone that can handle Terrence Jones, as he proved in Gainesville.

I was hoping Florida wouldn't try to speed this game up but that soundsl like the game plan. Cal better use the bench early and often.

Darius Miller promised me that Marquis Teague will be much better today.

That jumper by Teague is the worst shot UK can take in the halfcourt. No business shooting that shot unless the shot clock is under 2-3 seconds.

Teauge stil doesn't get it. He took on the entire Florida defense, one on five and of course clanked it.

Cal said on pregame Teague's big mistake yesterday was not keeping LSU honest, and that he wants him to shoot a little more. Maybe a product of that.

Defense is slacking so far. It's in the half court too, UK is usually solid there.

Miller's first shot is a miss for same reason he always misses. Line drive with little arc. He usually corrects it as game goes on.

Real good pace to this game early. Coaches will probably bemoan the D, but this is better basketball to watch than what we usually see.

Kyle Wiltjer just made SportsCenter for all the wrong reasons. Cal losing his mind over poor 3 pt defense. Florida shooting lights out. Due to have a game like this vs. UK.

Florida making shots. When they do that they're dangerous. But can they keep it up? Always the question with them.

As good as UK is on offense it's equally as bad on defense so far.
