I'm pulling a dual channel DVR review, so
Vandy 23 - UK 6
Vandy is making it look easy, and the big white guy is busting Pat Pat's defense pretty well. Basically, there's been way too much Coury and Stevenson for UK to have a chance.

No HD feed.

indeed...
Unfortunately, the radio is about 5 seconds ahead (I thought it's usually more like 5-7 seconds behind?) of the TV. It's just too annoying to hear something I'll see happen in 5 seconds, I had to turn off the radio.
I was pissed it was delayed, then to have this pathetic excuse for a crew just made it worse.

Announcers...
Seriously, is this like the L team announcers? Are there any worse announcing teams for ESPN, and if so, what game are they doing?
Also, an update from Nashville -- its Vandy 28, UK 6....with 6 minutes to go in the 1st half. That's correct -- 6 points.
Think this is the right time to check catspause?

Whoever said...
It's like, we play our game, we get up by ~15, then we just kinda let up, mess around, the other team starts nailing threes and running, all of a sudden its a 6 point lead.
Feels like Seton Hall, although Depaul is much worse than Seton Hall. But they are certainly making 3s from all over the floor.
Also, Quinn1979 points out live from the game that we are getting creamed when DC is in...it looks like he's trying so hard to score and get the ball. My guess is that his minutes are down, he feels like he has to touch the ball every second he's in because he's about to get taken out.
by CardsFan922 on Feb 12, 2008 9:55 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, DC is regressing, trying tro hard to bull
and he has a nice little jumper
I was thinking Seton Hall too

We will all miss T Will
AP: Williams also grabbed eight rebounds and to say he fed off Padgett would be an understatement.
"How much do people eat off plates?" Williams wondered. "We feed off him a lot because he's our point-center, our point-forward, our point-shooting guard. He's everything because he rebounds the ball, he passes the ball, he leads us. He could lead us out of the closet, lead us to the ocean. He's just our everything."
