#5 Kentucky 102 - Sam Houston State 92
#10
Glad to see Kentucky get the win!! But there were some GOOD things and some BAD things in this one!

Good things:
Kentucky was able to score over 100 points in a game for the first time in a while.
DeMarcus Cousins 27pts, 18rebs, 10-15 shooting, 2blks and only 1 foul. Career highs in both pts and rebs for Cousins early in his career.
John Wall 21pts, 6asts, 4rebs, 7-13 shooting
Patrick Patterson 20pts, 9rebs, 8-9 shooting very impressive!!
Eric Bledsoe 19pts, 6asts, 2stls, 6-10 shooting, 5-7 from 3, and 2blks, Mr. Bledsoe has got some MAJOR HOPS!!
Darius Miller 15pts, 3asts, 5-10 shooting, and 3-6 from 3.
Shot 55% as a team.
Very impressive stats from the starting lineup!!

Bad things:
Kentucky allowed 92 points.
They had 22 turnovers.
The benched scored 0 points.
Corey Allmond went 11-16 from 3 with 37pts. Which sets the record for the most 3 pointers made by anybody at Rupp Arena.
Sam Houston State was able to shoot 18-38 from the 3point line which sets the record for the most 3pointers made by an opponent at Rupp Arena.


I am very impressed with the production we got from our starters considering that they're the only ones that scored and we scored 102 as a team.
I personally would like to see the bench contribute more so we know that the starters don't have to be relied on to win the game for us. I think that Coach Cal needs to start focusing on the defense now because i was AMAZED! When our guys were defending the perimeter tonight they weren't even raising their arms, which is one of the most basic things you are taught to do in basketball! We're gonna have to work on that if we wanna beat the good teams this year. But, i do wanna say again that i am glad that we WON!! Go Wildcats!!
