Year after year, I have the same impression of Kentucky: poor half court offense. Oftentimes, four players are just standing around watching the fifth player dribble. No movement. No cuts. Statues.
OSU is Ruckerball.
Landers is an excellent studio analyst. |

Agreed with those praising Landers. He's insightful and makes everything easy to understand. You don't win 900 games if you're stupid but some people have a harder time transitioning to the studio role than others.

Harper's passes were sweet and yes, Landers is great in the studio.

Tough layup made by Epps.

I think your last point is the biggest thing. He knows the game inside and out, but he doesn't talk in coach speak, nor does he oversimplify things. He makes really good insightful and actually rather complex points, but he delivers them very conversationally. Most ex-coaches can't pull that off and end up delivering platitudes or clichés.

The renowned Dee Kantner, one of two women to have reffed the NBA, looks darn good for 57.
Matthew Mitchell's voice is similar to Bill Clinton. |

Cann passed up what looked like an open layup, dribbled in a circle, made the lay up and got fouled.
Kentucky was on a run but Mitchell just hit a big bucket and drew the foul. She gets down the court so quickly.

I have seen some bad and missed calls on both teams. Me thinks that some want the home team to win. We will see.

As good as it seems like Kentucky has played this quarter, they have only been +3, so OSU has to be feeling good because they've handled a UK potential run.

Waterman fouls a UK player 90 feet from the hoop when they are in the bonus. Can't just concede easy points like that to a team trying to come back.

Maybe that's why Fortner doesn't coach anymore.
Her advice " they need to just clear out and let Epps take her shot."
Or, you know, they might run a play, or set a screen or drive and dish, or do something other than play 1 on 5.

How does Calhoun drive into Akhator and nothing is called. I don't get how you can avoid a charge or block right under the hoop like that.

Still in the 3rd quarter and Akhator already has 19 rebounds.

Well that was kind of a late call on McCoy. Sort of like the ref was waiting to see if the shot went in before deciding whether to call it.
