To go undefeated, i recognize the plaid coat. Semifinal they defeated alabama. Regional final over marquette. Indiana defeated ucla in the National Semifinal and completed the run by ousting michigan 8668. 9 10 to go. Brian darden guarded by ulis. Pressley couldnt quite handle the pass to him.

Jim yeah i was going to say, finally the rim gets a little friendly down that end. Verne heres harrison. Jim towns continues to work just to get the position. Verne andrew harrison. Jim verne if they mix it up on their nights when theyre playing pretty well their interior theyre playing well offensively down low. If theyre shooting 35 40 not necessarily the threes but mid range jumpers if theyre shooting 35 theyll win. [whistle] verne held ball. Possession arrow. Wouldnt you know . Kentucky. Jim so you think theyre prime to win. Theyre up 32 points. The efforts still there. Look at the three guys coming total for kentucky to converge on the basketball. Jim eight to go. Verne eight to go. Oh my goodness. Willie cauleystein from a foot away. Jim a little glimpse of how hes improved his game. Used to be known just as a shot blocker. Oh dear watch out. Jim thats chievous again. Verne just doesnt know how to play any other way. Wow. Verne i sure admire him. Quinton chievous. Willie cauleystein. Ashley judd. Ernie Ernie Johnson in new york on tnt. The razor backs have had to fight against theriers. And harris, big bucket. Gives them the lead 5553. Meantime on trutv. A bucket for michael hopkins. They lead 5035 over eastern washington. Back to louisville. Verne . Verne thank you, ernie. Thats what we can refer to as a baby bracket. Arkansaswofford. North carolina held off harvard and won to advance. Chievous. Jim ernie just spoke about georgetown. Theyve had a funny year. Sometimes they come out and put it to the opposition. And other times they miss a few shots from the outside and had some struggles but looks like theyre starting to play better late in the season. Verne arkansas just won. 6939 7 40 remaining. Chievous has 15. Trapped. [whistle] jim here comes the show. Look at how tight they get. Its just upstairs. Very infrequently they have to dribble much to get their dunks. They just look for one another and thats a domination. 4018 in the paint. Verne darden backs away. Andrew harrison out to guard. Heres his brother Aaron Harrison crossover and guess whos there . And the foul is going to be called underneath on dakari johnson. Well, jim pick the team you feel is the best kentucky team. The 1954 bunch declared ineligible. Pitino led them to a National Time title. Jim im going with this team. I think depth wise, stacks up. Verne the point you made earlier is relevant. The game has changed so much. Jim uhhuh. You know going back years with some of those teams verne the way the game was played, i used to always refer to it as, you know you have to be fundamentally sound and athletic to play this game. You have to understand it, know it. Now i think the athletic side of it has taken an age. You still have to have the fundamentals but athletically its impressed me the last 15, 20 years how the kids have gotten bigger and stronger and faster. Theyve gotten away a little bit from the fundamentals and its hard to bring them back to the fundamentals. Thats half the challenge for john calipari. How do you get 10 high school allamericans to sacrifice for the team . And hes figured out how to do it. Verne four fouls on jervon pressley. [whistle] the foul is going to be called on Quinton Chievous number three. I beg your pardon. Harrison. I saw chievous wind of wince but it was from the pain. And now hes going to limp to the freethrow. Jim i like some of the expressions of the hampton players sitting on the bench. Verne well, they have, im sure enjoyed they enjoyed participating. Jim hampton will get a lot of mileage out of this, which is good. They deserve that. Verne student body of just over 4,000. Look at chievous get up. Jim just dont know what the word means. Verne loose ball. It will be hampton ball. Four fresh bodies coming on for kentucky. The second round continues tomorrow with the tipoff show. Thats on trutv at 11 eastern. 16 games across cbs tbs, tnt and trutv tomorrow. You decide the games to watch. Jim georgiamichigan state team to me on paper usually does. He had to get the guys ready for the end of the season. They gave them a little run for their money 10 days ago whatever it was. Verne here at the other end. Booker. Towns back to booker. Open three. Trey lyles goes for it. Cant control i. Jim that was a good example of their unselfish play. Booker got it to the post and a better look to take his shot. Verne chievous, jumper. Rattled it in. Jim the interesting part to me vernon, weve spoken about it guys at the ncaa level a College Level are just not used to turning on the perimeter and having this many tall guys to come out and really attack you on the perimeter and then can retreat if you go by them. They have one guy who is about seven feet tall and they let the other two taller guys in the front line go after people. Verne ulis answered a three with a three. Heres chievous. 7347. Chievous has 22. Hes actually a graduate student. [whistle] out of chicago. Jim, take a look at him. Jim hes limping a little bit right there. But look at the action. Hes not really concerned whos in there looking to block a shot. He comes out limping after that one again this guy has really put a courageous effort in the last verne he began his collegiate career in knoxville playing what will be his final game at hampton. Good and look at chievous limping over to congratulate his teammates. Jim johnson with the drive there. And its watch him try to attack the body also. A little bang to the floor. Overall the effort these guys are just banged up from the manhattan game really, especially chievous. Verne johnson. Rebound taken by willie cauleystein. Jim but they had to beat manhattan and manhattan was a Favorite Team against them. They earned the right to come here tonight to play kentucky. Verne never trailed in that manhattan win. Rebound, hampton. Chievous again. Very slow coming across the timeline. Four minutes to go. Jim im sure chievous isitying i is thinking i cant wait to put some ice on my body. Hes just been banged around. Verne 7349. 3 52 remaining in the ballgame. It will be 35 in a row. Five wins away from a perfect season. Verne 7349. After the win against manhattan, here was ed joyner grabbing a nietzsche cell phone. Coach joyner hey jesus first of all, they want to know how much of a mountain and what our odds are . Hello . Hello . I guess hell get back to me so ill get back to you. Its a heck of a mountain. So we know that. Verne well, theres more to this story. Lets check in with allie. Allie e. J. Coachs 9 yearold son, hes been watching the coverage. And yesterday morning he saw his dad on tv and he said, dad wow, youre famous. But i dont know if jesus will help you now. How about that for a line . Verne excellent and thats the other son andrew the 7yearold by his brothers side. Jim and the beauty of that story, is dad told us that story and dad was laughing harder than we were. Verne he said he got 297 texts and he answer every one offer them. Hes got a little bit on his mind. Deron powers. Three and a half to go. Jim im looking over at coach joyner too now, vernon. Hes not sitting on the bench waiting for this to end. He continues to applaud his kid. The effort, cheering for them over there. Verne that ball tipped. It will be kentuckys. Well chievous has had a wonderful final game. Quinton chievous. Jim he sure has just really active. And weve spoken about him a lot. 713. 78 from the line. Just 22 points. Just a terrific effort getting banged around for the last couple of nights but never shying away. Has 10 rebounds. Verne rolls around and drops early. Three to go. Verne Dominique Hawkins getting ready to check in for kentucky. Rebound. Aaron harrison. Off his foot. Whos going to make the most shots . Who has more points in the second half . If your bracket is already busted play the capital one ncaa tournament run game on ncaa. Com and in the march madness live app. Towns with a doubledouble. 21 points and 11 rebounds. [whistle] touched last by dakari johnson. Number 44. Chievous with the miss. Dakari johnson with the loose ball rebound. [whistle] harrison is fouled. I think its safe to advance kentucky to the next game. They have looked terrific after a sloppy start tonight. And they will meet cincinnati. A lot of the folks have left tomorrow and tnt West Virginia buffalo and maryland, valparaiso. Jim cincinnatis a team that weve watched earlier tonight. Theyre a team that just doesnt go away. They obviously have a challenge here. But i have jokingly said to a few of my friends. I looked at the matchups real fast. I said watch out for cincinnati. When they meet up with kentucky just joking with them but that part has come true. So well see what happens. But everybody picks a team. You have to pick the team next if youre against kentucky, right . Everybody who is against kentucky they say i hope cincinnati takes them down. And the kentucky fans are hoping they continue on this marvelous run. But its fun to talk about. Lawrence cooks on for hampton. Derek willis on for kentucky. Aaron harrison will take his spot on the bench. Heres hook for hamptop. Hampton. Tipped out. Andrew harrison number five. Willis they want him to shoot. He looks to pass. Looks in. Loses control. Offensive foul. Jim fans trying to get him wound up. He was looking to get on the scoreboard. Verne there are five more guys on this kentucky bench. What do you take to get them in the game . Jim thats a good question. Verne key. Breon key a junior out of hampton. Jim play as little football also. Like to see him in action with that score too. He missed twice. Nice defensive job. Wilsonfisher, number 31. Jim heres quee a nice pullup jumper over johnson. Heres key with a nice pullup jumper over johnson. Theyve hung together. Give them credit. Look at their bench and guys on the floor verne sure have. Heres another kentucky basket. Jim touched on by coach joyner and that piece we did. The mountain was pretty big. They tried to go over it. Verne lawrence cooks draw as foul. Here we go. Were shortly going to see a combination of sam malone, tod lanter, e. J. Floreal brian long. Jim seems just about every substitution. They do it in a wave of four. Verne thats right. Marvelous effort by Quinton Chievous. Last game. Sam malone with the head band. Floreal, number 24. Tod lanter who in his career has one start. Calipari gave him the start on senior day, number 21. Jim the right thing to do. Verne willis. Floreal. Stripped. This is hayden number 13. Jumper for three. Too strong. Willis. This crowd is urging willis to shoot. Shoot. Jim theyll do the right thing most likely and just watch the clock disappear. Verne yes they will. Jim that was almost headonhead just then. Verne 7956. 350. For the wildcats. John calipari. Jim you have to really admire the hampton effort coming in. Coach joyner and company gave it their best shot obviously overwhelmed by the depth and size and strength. John calipari gets ready for the next one. Verne the tournament continues live on tnt and trutv. It continues tomorrow at noon on cbs. For Jim Spanarkel and Allie Laforce, im Verne Lunquist saying so long from louisville.

Kentucky taking care of business in its opening round game beating hampton by a score of 7956. Up next for wildcats, the cincinnati bearcats. There probably was no better no more certain a winner than kentucky. Kenny without question. And even though they comfortably won theyre going to go back and see what they need to do to tighten things up because as you advance, you to continue to raise your level and kentucky will do that. Greg good day for the state of ohio. Bad day for the state of texas. Good day for the big east. Charles this is our fourth or fifth year. This is probably the best day as far as close games. We said there were three blow oiths and outs and the rest of the games how many games ended like the last minute . Greg five onepoint game. Charles it was a great day unless youre a fan of a losing team. The ncaa starts for kentucky. There are five less games possibly and each of these five games will be a real test. There was a scouting report on them. The margin of victory decreased but they are still the rabbit that everybodys chasing. Greg 350. After the game our Allie Laforce with coach calipari.
