First half looked exceptionally well. Meeks really kept them in the game but it was his first game back in nearly 6 weeks so come 2nd half he was basically running on fuems. Too much atheleticism from Houston on both sides of the ball. They couldn't miss a shot they threw up and was physical on the defensive end. Rebounding killed UK, Houston had at one point 23 second chance points in the second half, UK got their first second chance bucket midway through the second half. Blocking out, its fundamental! Cats couldn't do that. You'd think with a 7'2 frame in Jared Carter that he would bring in the boards but he proved me and everyone else wrong. Crawford was the only one to keep us in the game and keep the score respectable. Would have been a huge difference if we had Patterson in the lineup, but thats the way the cookie crumbles. Congrats to coach Penders and Houston they are playing some good ball.
