Wildcats trying to screw me out of some coin. Down 46-45 right now.

Stanford is terrible. Can't believe they're hanging in.

Cats look pretty bad. Lackluster effort, lazy defense and bad execution. The Cats may win, but it's NOT a good performance.

They're definitely a work in progress, but they just have so much talent.

Big 7-0 run to go up by 3. Not sure how Cousins shot went down.

Guys like Miller, Dodson and Bledsoe need to find their roles. Wall is amazing...Patterson is great, but more importantly, consistent. Cousins is a wild card...but you have to figure his skill and size will be a plus once he gets into the flow.

My biggest concern is developing the rest of the offense, and more importantly, the defense. Definitely a work in progress...but at the same time, it's enjoyable to watch something with great potential grow.

John Wall is clutch. Both of those free throws were pure. No hesitation at all.

Demarcus Cousins is not so clutch.

Stanford blew this one. It was theirs.

UK will probably take this one in OT.

On a night where UK pretty much didn't show up. John Wall did. The guy is unflappable. He's the only one who really has been in the game all night.

Mulva, watch UK cover now after such a HORRIBLE 40 minutes. I have them -10...

Just getting updates on CBS GameTracker.

Was Stanford up by 2 and at the line, missed both FTs, and then fouled Wall to send him to the line?

It was 63-61. Cousins got fouled, missed 2 FT's. Mann got fouled, missed 2 FT's. Wall got fouled with 2 seconds left and made 2 FT's. Stanford had it sealed if they could have made 2 FT's.

To Wall's credit, he made a great full-court run to the hoop and was fouled while shooting a layup.

He's good. Obviously.

LOL. Way to finish, Stanford.

The Cardinal are done now. No chance in OT, in my opinion.

This would be a good win for former Duke associate head coach Johnny Dawkins.

UK has really stepped up the D, but the O has disappeared.

I guess that -9 isn't going to happen for me. Meh. There goes my beer money for the weekend.

They only have 3 points in OT...so much for covering 10. Haha, Stanford has REALLY imposed their style on the game all night.

UK has a lot of young guys with big roles on this team. They may not be impressive at times, but a win is a win.

By March, this team is going to be VERY good, in my opinion.

You have to wonder if this team needs to be brought down a notch before they can really be what they COULD become. Anyway, it's late, I'm tired, have a great Thanksgiving everyone!

I didnt get this game on tv, so I had to watch the stats from yahoo sports as the game went on. I hate having to keep track that way. Bledsoe came up with the big shot when UK needed it.

There are numerous online streams of every UK game no matter what station it is broadcast on. Check them out cats_gone_wild. You won't ever miss a game. Even if you have to watch it on the computer, it's better than nothing.

How long will it be before the coach has this program in trouble with the NCAA?
