  I think Jared is as good as of a player as Barnes. BUt I think Harrison Barnes will get all the media love because of the type of position he plays. No one wants to give POY awards to big men.

  Kentucky with a huge 3 for the lead. Up by 4 now.

  UNC 9/16 from 3, and losing.

  I think they were 9/12 or 13 before they started going cold. UK is playing with determination now and Lamb hit a couple big 3's.

  Turnovers

  kinda crazy Jones and Davis arent doing much and UK is ahead.

  Huge turn of events there
• cats gone wild

  Huge 3 by UNC. Down by one. UK better not turn it over or miss a shot or UNC probably pulls it out.

  What was the foul?

  This has been a damn great game. What you expect to see when two teams ranked in the top five meet in a regular season game. Both teams going back and forth and making big plays, without one of them completely crumbling and getting blown out.
• karen lotz

  

  Wow.
• Midstate01

  

  Lol the dude traveled with like .5 left. Anyone else notice that??
• cats gone wild

  Freshmen beat the experienced team that wanted to come back for another season.

  I guess Carolina was ready to go home? WTF. Why no foul?
• karen lotz

  

  Why no foul?

  Nice awareness Henson. Don't bother fouling with 5 seconds left after you get packed.
  
  Zeller did well defensively, but he was horrible against the double team all game.
• karen lotz

  

  Best unibrow ever?
• reclegend22

  

  That was just weird.
• Tiger2003

  

  Did the Kentucky kid travel before time ran out?
• reclegend22

  

  Roy Williams is a great coach, but he needs to make sure his players are aware of time and score better than that. That should have been the key point made in the huddle that had happened just 10 seconds beforehand.
  
  As I said, that's one of the weirdest endings to a game I've ever seen. UNC easily had a chance left to win that game had they fouled.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Haha don't understand that ending...I was hoping for a UNC win for #1 to come to Allen fieldhouse next weekend
• stephen3108

  Total mind lapse by UNC. Great game though. Both teams will be tough and battle tested come March. Looking for both to be in the final four. Hopefully on the other side of the bracket from OSU. Haha.
• reclegend22

  

  Great athletic play by Anthony Davis, though. I wouldn't have been able to convert on that shot had a one-eyed monster levitated before me, either.

  Coach K needs to coach his team up so they don't get embarrassed on national TV leaving people like you and cc to make up excuses.
• reclegend22

  

  Yeah, all coaches make mistakes. Coach K certainly didn't coach a very good game at Ohio State, and his players, aside from Rivers and Plumlee, didn't bother to show up either. As another poster here said, Coach K decided to move on to the "next play" -- meaning next game -- as soon as he went to the zone. I agree.
  
  But the ending to the Carolina game was extremely puzzling. Whoa.
