Around SBN: Kentucky Wildcats 66, Alabama Crimson Tide, 55: Postmortem

Who cares about all the bias...

The best way to shut them up is to just win.  I love how everyone is calling this game ugly- and I'll be the first to admit, it wasn't a beautiful, free flowing game, but look at the results.  We shut down a high flying, athletic Memphis team with stifling defense and intensity, and what do we get?  Comments like, "ugliest game ever", "ucla played less poor", "this is no espn classic"...

In fact, only Dookie V gave us any real credit for our defense, depite his own unchoosing of us from his original bracket.

LSU-TX regulation score 52-52.  Um, how is that so much better than 50-45 with us missing 20 fts?  Yet, that was a great, exciting game with the way all the MSM people are talking about it.

At this point, I'm just enjoying the ride, regardless of how we are portrayed.  Hopefully in the end, they'll have no choice but to talk about us.

Go Bruins!!

Nothing fancy
No style points but whatever it takes to advance.  

If they want excitement or an ESPN classic, I'd recommend they check the TiVO for that Gonzaga game.

This upcoming LSU game will likely be another down and dirty grind it out game like in the 2nd round vs. Bama.  We'll need Hollins to stay out of foul trouble and EVERYBODY to hit the boards- Memphis had too many offensive rebounds and 2nd shots.  Another thing- free throws ('nuff said).

Tyus- shoot the ball!
