Did Pitino flip off Kentucky fans?

The series is still in the Wildcats’ favor, 33-15, and they’ve won the last three meetings – including a battle in the Sweet 16 two seasons ago that ended in a 74-69 victory. You’re welcome anyway this game was absolute horseshit. He scored 13 points in 26 minutes, hitting 3 of 4 3-pointers, while Briscoe sat out with an ankle injury. Nope. Pure dampness from three just moisture from the promised “3” land.

Kentucky (10-2) led 75-70 and then held on for the win as a 3-pointer at the buzzer by Louisville guard Damion Lee fell short.

Pitino gave United Kingdom credit for the win, in particular for some long-range sharpshooting.

When Louisville and Kentucky play basketball, it’s always intense. Lee scored 14 points on 5-of-10 shooting in the second half and gave the Cardinals their high point of the second half with a 3-pointer at the 5:34 mark to pull within one point. If he wasn’t 5’9 he would be a lottery pick no doubt. “I wanted to go for the kill, knowing we were down two”. Kentucky gets their buckets from starters, and with another injury plaguing the Wildcats in the layup line, they needed a big push from their bench. The game starts at 8 p.m. For my money, last week was one of Calipari’s best as Kentucky coach. That is a pretty incredible record and tough to compete with. The Cardinals (11-2) had a chance to tie or take the lead with less than a minute left but Trey Lewis was called for traveling.

Against Kentucky, they fought back from a 16-point deficit after being outscored 22-6, including an 11-0 Wildcat spurt bridging intermission, to close within one point late, but couldn’t close the deal. I still believe Louisville is a unsafe team and will only get more risky as the year goes on due to Pitino having a knack for getting his teams to peak at the end of the year.

Yet in his six tournament-eligible seasons, Pitino produced five Elite Eight teams, three Final Four squads and the 1996 NCAA champion. I think we’re going to be really, really good. I’m nearly certain that the UofL coaching staff did not plan on Hawkins beating them from behind the arc, due to his 17 percent three-point percentage.

Saturday brought up yet another edition of one of the best rivalries that college basketball has to offer, Kentucky vs Louisville. His shooting has been poor and he has look out of sorts running the team, his performance in the loss to Ohio State probably the worst of his Wildcat career. I didnt realize I had that many points, ” Hawkins said.

While it was a good game on the court, it was something after the game that has some fans talking.

Morehead ranks first in the nation with 96 blocks and second with 7.4 blocks per game.
