Transcript

00:02 - I'm starting to think that maybe Calipari
00:06 got through to his kids there in Kentucky
00:10 as they do play defense.
00:13 They're actually capable of playing defense here, coach.
00:15 They've also gotten a little healthier.
00:17 It's a bigger lineup that they've been rolling out there
00:20 with the big seven footer here,
00:23 but they're gonna have to do it again here tonight
00:25 against an LSU team.
00:26 They should have no problem scoring more points than.
00:30 The question is, do they play enough defense again
00:33 to limit what LSU can do?
00:35 - And I think that is the key thing, right?
00:37 I think Calipari, and think about this folks.
00:40 How about Calipari?
00:41 We talked about Patino just before.
00:43 How about Calipari on Saturday after meeting August?
00:47 Basically challenge the reporters to come after him.
00:52 That's what a coach does.
00:53 You take the bullets for your team
00:55 and then you take care of it in the background.
00:58 And here's the reason why.
01:00 Why am I liking Kentucky?
01:02 One, they're playing defense, right?
01:05 Number two, LSU comes off a big win
01:10 off of what we're starting to see to be a fraudulent,
01:13 possibly South Carolina team.
01:16 They lost two of the last three games at home.
01:18 So there's no home court advantage.
01:19 Who's better?
01:20 Kentucky.
01:21 Who's better, coach?
01:22 Kentucky.
01:23 Who's deeper?
01:24 Kentucky.
01:25 Who's more athletic?
01:26 Kentucky.
01:27 Who needs a game more?
01:29 Kentucky.
01:31 Take Kentucky, minus the points at LSU,
01:34 I think they win by double digits going away.
