For the second straight time this season, Kentucky comes back from 14 points or more down to win against Tennessee and sweep the season series. Another absolute thriller as the Cats win 7471 I met Jones 8, 5, 928-02287. Ryan Lemon is in Lexington. I am in San Francisco. So we literally. I have Billy and Mario and Drew waiting outside my room because we are about to go to this super bowl party tonight. But I couldn't leave here without talking a little bit about this game. Ryan. It was an exciting victory. Yet another one where we fall way behind. Yet another one where we have a ton of grit to come back and yet another great night for Kentucky in a really bizarre but fun season.

Liam Tomlinson (3:27)

I guess we should get to the point where we learn. We should learn that. Hey, they got a lot of fighting in that second half. Don't give up on them because once again at halftime I found myself okay, they're good. They're about to get run to. Tennessee was hitting everything. They're down 14 points at home on their home floor. But once again they showed a lot of fight. Bring it back. Get that win.

Matt Jones (3:46)

It was unbelievable. I mean I. First of all you got, you got to give the credit to this team for its heart.

Liam Tomlinson (3:52)

I mean they are.

Matt Jones (3:53)

I do not think this is not the most talented team in the world, but this is a team that plays hard and has since they've had all these injuries, they've had to find their roles, they've had to find exactly what they're going to do. All these guys that play and you know, now it's basically down to a nine man rotation. A lot of the times it's kind of down to seven and the seven guys that play, they each play play through their weaknesses and I give them a lot of credit. They have completely sort of outperformed where I thought they would be after the injuries led to three players going out and you 18 and 7, 8 and 3 in the SEC, two wins against Tennessee, one at Arkansas. So I just want to go over a few things before I hand it to Ryan to take everybody's calls. We were going to have Ryan's guy, Carl Ravitch on he vaugh he wanted to come on but we went too late. You would have been excited. Ryan, that's your guy.

Liam Tomlinson (4:53)

I love Carl Ravage. I was so excited.

Matt Jones (4:56)

Let's go. Well, he said it got too late. I understand they the 96 team went a little while so he couldn't wait anymore. But let a few things to talk about. I think the key to this game was down the stretch. Obviously Kentucky fell down early, came back. You know, it was kind of a dog the rock fight in the middle of the second half. But guys play. So you start with Ortega away You know, in the first half, he, even though he had 12 points, I kind of was disappointed in how he played, especially defensively, not in the second half. I mean, I thought the way the decisions he made, the reverse layup to take the lead and then the past to Colin Chandler for that three. Obviously Chandler huge making the shot. He's made big shots and big plays all year. But that pass, there is a time away. Would have taken that to the basket, maybe got maybe to drawn a foul, maybe would have gotten blocked. He made the right read and also clearly had trust in Colin Chandler to give him that opportunity. And Colin was buckets. And then on the very next play, he runs back on defense, guards Nate Amen, makes him take a tough shot in which he is in his face, and he misses. And that starts the process that leads to Kentucky winning the game. You got to give away a lot of credit. There are times that sometimes I sit there and go, man, I know you can give more. But then there are times that he gives more than as much as anybody that's played here. It's not always 100%, but he comes through in the clutch. And I was really proud of him tonight in how he performed. Obviously, Colin Chandler hits a shot. Huge three. One of the, you know, you get a look like that if you miss it, the team probably loses the game. I mean, if he misses that shot, Kentucky loses. He makes it, they win. Massive shot. And like I said, you go back to the Tennessee game in Knoxville where he got the steal the pass against lsu. He's done this all year long. I thought Aberdeen was good again, making good decisions. They. They now will put the ball in his hands at these end of game situations. I think so far he's done the right thing and he made free throws, okay? He made the free throws that cut the game to one, and then he made the free throws that basically put the game away at the end. You, you know, you need guys who make them. And some of the other guys had struggled. Malachi Moreno, I thought had a couple big plays. Diabate's rebound, I don't know how Tennessee lets him get that rebound. That's a huge rebound and the presence of mind to get rid of the ball because he's not a great free throw shooter and to get it to Chandler, who ended up missing. But still, that. That is a massive rebound that Kentucky might not win if he doesn't make. So all of those guys making plays down the stretch, Ryan, you know, without having the star power. And I think I said at halftime Kentucky doesn't have a guy like Nate Amen who can go for 29. They don't have a guy like the game before we saw with Caleb Wilson. All these guys have to contribute if they're going to succeed. And tonight they did.

Liam Tomlinson (8:10)

I'm glad you mentioned no Way's pass because I put a big star by it on my notes because we're all going to remember Colin Chandler hitting that shot.

Matt Jones (8:16)

Wait a minute, you took notes?

Liam Tomlinson (8:17)

I've got game notes here for.

Matt Jones (8:19)

Oh, I love it. I love a ride, love a show prep, but go ahead.

Liam Tomlinson (8:23)

You know, he drives down in traffic, it's underneath the basket, he's kind of in trouble. And yet that pass he made kind of a backhanded pass to find a wide open Colin Chandler. You're right, that was amazing. And he doesn't get enough credit for what he did defensively against Acuff, against Arkansas. And then the second half today against Gillespie, they swear they made the switch at halftime. Put Chandler on.

Matt Jones (8:43)

Yeah, those guys, I mean, yeah. Oh, we did a great job on Gillespie. And then I thought Chandler held his own on Amen. You wouldn't necessarily have thought that was a matchup that would have gone Kentucky's way. And even though Amen scored, I thought he, he limited. He made him took take hard twos. Now he made a couple, but he made him take difficult shots. And Ryan, I think when you consider he had 19 in the first half, if you told me at halftime, okay, he'll only get 10 in the second half. You take that all the time.

Liam Tomlinson (9:12)

Yeah, it wasn't working away on Amen in the first half, so he made the switch. And to Colin Chandler's credit, he's got a couple big defensive stops. I think it kind of frustrated Amen a little bit. And Gillespie was a non factor the whole second half, so.

Matt Jones (9:26)

Oh, wait, he really just completely disappeared. And it was weird because Kentucky got completely out rebounded and physical through most of the game, but they scored more points in the paint, which is a weird dichotomy, but it worked out. I thought the RUP crowd in the second half was, was amazing. I mean, I, I, the only thing that has bummed me out about this trip is having to miss that game in Rupp arena because I am sure it was an awesome environment. You know, it's hard for these games to sound loud on ESPN because the way they put the mics in rup, I never think it sounds loud. It actually sounded loud, Ryan, a few times tonight and it looked like the crowd was into it and I think it made a difference. You could see a couple of Tennessee guys, especially the non ament guys. When the other guys had to shoot. You could just see Ryan.

Liam Tomlinson (10:17)

Yep.

Matt Jones (10:17)

The environment I think was having an effect on him.

Liam Tomlinson (10:20)

KS bar has always been a good barometer for we think what the crowd's gonna be like at Rup. It was packed at 2:30 this afternoon and was packed all the way up until tip off. And usually we have tickets kind of floating around. People want us to get away.

Matt Jones (10:31)

No tickets.

Liam Tomlinson (10:32)

No tickets.

Matt Jones (10:33)

No tickets.

Liam Tomlinson (10:33)

None today. Everybody wanted to go to that game.

Matt Jones (10:36)

This is what you want. I mean it's a Saturday night game against your rival. They brought obviously brought out the denim. I like the denim. I thought they looked really good. I thought it was great that they made that comeback in front of the 96 team. It was cool hearing.

Liam Tomlinson (10:49)

Yep.

Matt Jones (10:50)

A lot of those guys right here on the, on the, on the post game show. Just an awesome night, you know, an awesome Kentucky basketball BBN kind of night which is what you want at the end of the day you, we are Kentucky fans for nights like this. I still, I don't know how good this team is in the bigger picture. They still have weaknesses, they still do things sometimes that'll drive you crazy. You keep thinking you can't keep falling down by these huge margins and coming back. But even with all that said, I love the way they fight. I love how hard they play. I love that they don't quit. And I also love that. I mean this is a group who you go back to the non conference, there were all kinds of issues at play in seem to like each other. You never knew who was going to play in a game.

Liam Tomlinson (11:47)

Yeah.

Matt Jones (11:48)

Then you had these injuries. It was this and that. It has now shifted to a different thing. And I think you can say that virtually every player on the team is playing better now than they were then. And that's what you want, that's what you ask your coach to do. Can you get the best out of what you have? And when you consider who's on the floor for Kentucky in these situations, Ryan, I think Mark has done an amazing job at getting this team to play at this level. Do you wish you had other players? Sure. Do you wish these guys hadn't gotten hurt? Sure. But that Denzel Aberdeen, who's not a point guard, be your point guard. To have Colin Chandler regain his confidence, to have Malachi Moreno develop into an NBA prospect before your eyes, to have Yellow Vich go from not playing to end up being A starter and making big plays to find a way to demote Diabate and Garrison, but still get productive stuff out of them. And then away to go from kind of what was a disappointing first half into the season. We had hoped he would have. I just think it's been. It's really. I give Mark a lot of credit. I mean, I thought it was a poor performance coaching in the first half of the year, but to flip it around and to be 8 and 3 at this point in the SEC, you got to give him a salute.

Liam Tomlinson (13:12)

And I think to continue your narrative, you know, Trent Noah, a guy that didn't even play, like the first three SEC games, I think. And now he gets Tennessee, doesn't he? He does. You're right.

Matt Jones (13:21)

He is a. He is a Tennessee killer. You grow up in Harlan county, that's.

Liam Tomlinson (13:24)

What will happen, I think, you know, they now know who their roster, who it is, who they are, whether, you know, they know the responsibilities. I think they just go out and just playing now and not looking over their shoulder, thinking they may get. Especially for Aberdeen. Aberdeen's a guy that. I told you he's one of my least favorite players in a long time now. I love the guy.

Matt Jones (13:41)

I do love him. I love the way he plays. I love. He has, I think, not worrying about having to do something to keep from getting pulled, has made it to where he doesn't force the issue as much as he did. And. And he's a very good defender, and I think that's made him be really, really effective. So it's an awesome win. Bigger picture. Seven more games left in the regular season. You know, there was a time three weeks ago that I didn't think it was assured they would make the tournament. Now, absent a complete collapse, they. They will make the tournament. As long as they win one or two more, I think they'll be fine. Now, the schedule's hard. These last seven games, you play Florida ice, okay, you play at Auburn, you play at Texas A and M, you host Georgia. This is a tough, tough stretch coming. But you look at those games, and I would say, all right, there might not be many games that I could say we're definitely going to win. But I also don't think there's any games you can count this team out on at Florida will be difficult, but the rest of them, why not? If you keep playing like this and you keep playing hard and then you get in the tournament and you see what the matchup is and whatever the matchup is, if it's the right one, they'll have a chance to fight and be in it at the end. 859-280-2287. Ryan, we are about to get in the car and go to this Sports Illustrated party. I am exhausted, by the way. I don't have this, this, these young guys.

Liam Tomlinson (15:16)

Mario.

Matt Jones (15:18)

Well, not Drew so much, but Mario and Billy. We've. Drew and I've been like the parents having to babysit them over the course of the last 48 hours. But I'm gonna let you handle it for the rest of the night. And congrats on to the BBN on a win. And Ryan, real fun evening.

Liam Tomlinson (15:36)

I gotta ask you one question. Apparently you've been quite the topic on a Tony Basilio show tonight. Any comment?

Matt Jones (15:42)

Yeah, I listened to a little bit of it. You know, good for him. Listen, he, he said that I didn't have any talent. That's fine. I, you know, luckily he's not in charge of deciding these things. The audience is in charge. And I think those numbers speak for themselves. But I like that he, he gets worked up. I appreciate the passion. He did say he was going to kick Jimmy Dykes in the crotch. I think that's a little far. I don't think he should do that.

Liam Tomlinson (16:11)

I think half the people listening are bbn because I'm getting all these messages. Oh, he said this about ksr. He said this about.

Matt Jones (16:17)

Yeah, listen, he's. What?

Liam Tomlinson (16:19)

What?

Matt Jones (16:20)

It's fine. I, I got, I got no problem with Tony. Go do your thing. Tony Basilio and you all do your thing. Ryan, thank you for coming in. Enjoy the rest of the evening. And big shout out to Liam, who's filling in there, who's done a good job tonight as well. We'll take a break. When we come back, Rylemon will take your calls.

See t mobile.com for details. Welcome back. The Loco Total Leaders KSR Postgame show the Cat's a 7471 winner over those stinking Tennessee Vol. My goodness, when are we going to learn not to give up on this team? Down by 14 in the first half again. We, you know, they were down by 17 down in Knoxville, came back to win, down 16 in Arkansas, came back to win, down 14 tonight, come back to win. It's the largest halftime deficit. They would come back for a win in UK in Lexington ever. Not just Rupp arena in the old historic Memorial Coliseum ever. They've never been down by more than 14 and come back and win the game. They did it tonight. But come on, Liam, they're going to win tonight. The 96 teams there, they're wearing denim uniforms for crying out loud. Pope's daughter's dancing with the dance team. Of course they're going to win tonight, right?

Ryan Lemon (20:51)

It was magic in the air tonight, Ryan. You could feel especially when they came back in the second half, they slowly chipped and chipped away at the lead and then eventually when they were able to take the lead again, I had faith. They went down three points. It didn't feel like the end of the world. It really felt like this team was still ready there. I was confident even when they were down three late in the game.

Liam Tomlinson (21:09)

Like Matt said, just the heart and the effort and the fight in this team is really kind of come out of nowhere. You know, you we're not that far away. When they started the SEC, oh and 2. Now they've lost. Now they've won 8 out of the next 9. They started 0 and 2. They've won 8 of 9 in the SEC. Amazing what they've been able to do. But they got a tough one. Like Matt said, some tough games coming up. Kind of got a bye week this week. They don't play during midweek. One week away to play Florida. They just, Florida just dismantled Texas A and M tonight at Texas A and M. It's going to be tough going to Florida trying to win this game. But I like where we are. I like my chances and I like my team. Now. I couldn't have said that About a month or so ago. But I like my team, so Phone lines are open. 859-280-2287. We already got a full bank of callers right now. We're going to get through as many as we can. So who we got first? Liam?

Liam Tomlinson (22:02)

Appreciate it. All right, what you got tonight?

Caller/Listener (22:05)

I. I think that I was the good luck for the game. I proposed my now fiance today. She said yes right before the game.

Liam Tomlinson (22:13)

Oh, Jelly, well done. How did you do it and where did you do it?

Caller/Listener (22:19)

We. We live in Cincinnati now, so. Right. We actually went to Northern Kentucky for the proposal, but on an overlook over the skyline. And it was great.

Liam Tomlinson (22:31)

Wow.

Caller/Listener (22:32)

Watch the game one.

Liam Tomlinson (22:36)

Well, are you gonna get give her a chance to say anything.

Caller/Listener (22:40)

Yeah. Here she is right now.

Liam Tomlinson (22:41)

All right.

Caller/Listener (22:43)

Yes.

Liam Tomlinson (22:44)

We want to hear from you. You do accepted the pro. What. So what's your name? His name is Jelly. Are you Peanut Butter?

Caller/Listener (22:52)

No, he's Kelly. I'm Leslie.

Liam Tomlinson (22:53)

Kelly. Well, congratulations, Leslie.

Caller/Listener (22:57)

Thank you.

Liam Tomlinson (22:58)

I guess you're a UK fan for life now.

Caller/Listener (23:01)

Yeah, married into it.

Liam Tomlinson (23:02)

There we go. Well, congratulations. Appreciate the phone call. So there we go. Liam, what a night. You win the you be come from behind to beat your rival, Tennessee and Jelly and Kelly and Peanut Butter all got engaged today.

Ryan Lemon (23:15)

Love is in the air.

Liam Tomlinson (23:16)

Love is in the air. Valentine's Day's next weekend. Valentine's Day is a week from today. Well played, Jelly. Nice job. Right. Who we got next?

Ryan Lemon (23:24)

Lee.

Liam Tomlinson (23:24)

Lee. Go ahead, Lee.

Caller/Listener (23:27)

Hey, Ryan, what's up?

Liam Tomlinson (23:29)

What's up, Lee?

Caller/Listener (23:31)

How awesome was that? Go Cats. I love it. Matt kind of addressed a couple things I was going to say at first and not being critical, nothing but everything. But I've been hearing y' all say the last week or two weeks, I don't know if this team is good. I don't know. Well, I think you're finding out some pretty daggone good. And I think people find out that Mark Pope is a pretty daggone good coach. And what he's done with this team with all his injuries is pretty daggum remarkable. And. And I don't ever feel like we're out of a game. We're 8 and 3, second league. I mean, what do you say? How do you feel about him now?

Liam Tomlinson (24:11)

Appreciate it. Lee, you're absolutely right about a couple things. All the questions people were having about Mark Pope, people wanting him even gone after this year, gone right now, he's not the man for the job. We need to get rid of him. I hope they're reevaluating that right now because what this man is able to do, not just this year, but two years in a row now, adjusting his roster, his style of play the way they play because injuries just decimating some of his star players, it's been amazing. And what they've done this year, yeah, the Gonzaga game was awful. The Vanderbilt game was awful. But you're right, they're now they're sitting here 8 and 3 in the SEC, have a legit shot to, you know, get that first, that double buy in the SEC tournament, which is kind of what you want anyway. So I think Pope does deserve a lot of credit. What do you think, Liam?

Ryan Lemon (24:55)

I had a lot of doubt at the beginning of the year.

Liam Tomlinson (24:57)

I think a lot of people did.

Ryan Lemon (24:58)

But year one, Mark Pope accomplished what I wanted to see. We were tired of losing in the first weekend. We wanted to see the second weekend. We got to the second weekend. You play a team three times, it's hard to beat them three times. I'd hate to play Tennessee in the tournament again this year because I'm not sure I'd be as confident. But hey, we grinded out two wins in the regular season and we are where we're at right now. A lot of positive momentum right now building each week. The team has really just gelled. It's the energy, the team, everything was a total collapse at the beginning of the year. Nothing felt right plugging triangles and circles. But now it just feels like a well oiled machine. People are finding their roles and I think that's the biggest part, the roles players have on this team and to.

Liam Tomlinson (25:35)

Back up something else. Lee said. Mark Pope owns Tennessee. He's played him five times now, won four of five, swept them in the regular season last year, swept them in the regular season this year. Of course like you said, they did lose to him in the sweet sixteen. But Lamont Butler got hurt. Didn't even play that game. He got hurt like right before that game. So yeah, Mark Pope deserves a lot of credit and I hope the people that were so anti Pope or coming back into the canoe a little bit. Who we got next?

Ryan Lemon (26:01)

Dave?

Liam Tomlinson (26:02)

Dave, go ahead. Dave.

Caller/Listener (26:05)

How you doing fellows?

Liam Tomlinson (26:06)

How are you Dave?

Caller/Listener (26:08)

No good, right? Just up here at MC Suites and just got to watching the game. Went to the game and enjoyed it. It was great. One of the best environments I've seen in college in UK in a long time.

Liam Tomlinson (26:20)

We mentioned that, you know how there were no tickets available. Usually Matt and I get tickets to kind of give away to fans that they're not going. So they want to put in the. In the hands of somebody who can go. But even Jack Givens after the game, Tom Leach after the game, everybody's talking about the environment inside Rupp arena was awesome. That's what makes Rupp arena special. It's a big game. It's rocking like nowhere else.

Caller/Listener (26:41)

It was really crazy. I mean, I've been to a lot of games with Billy Clyde and all of Rick and this right towards the end there, that when everybody was yelling, that was probably one of the loudest sides I ever heard. It was really, really an exciting. I have a lot of health issues, so I'm just glad that I could go there and enjoy this and love the cats and go. And we're going to go. So thanks for taking my call, Ryan.

Liam Tomlinson (27:02)

Appreciate it, Dave. Yeah, a lot of, A lot of people that went to the game kind of talking about how the environment was just great. Like I said, man, the 96 teams there, one of the greatest teams in the history of college basketball. You're honoring that team. You're wearing denim uniforms. Of course you're going to have a good crowd. You want that crowd to play a part in the game tonight. And it did. Who we got next?

Ryan Lemon (27:21)

Claire.

Liam Tomlinson (27:22)

Claire, Go ahead, Claire.

Caller/Listener (27:25)

Hi, Ryan. First time, long time.

Liam Tomlinson (27:28)

All right, Claire, bring it tonight. What do you got for us?

Caller/Listener (27:32)

So I was born and raised an Ohio State fan, but my fiance converted me to a wildcat. And I have two questions for you.

Liam Tomlinson (27:42)

All right.

Caller/Listener (27:42)

You are his landlord. At one point when he was in Lexington. No way to ask you what is your favorite wild eggs menu item.

Liam Tomlinson (27:54)

The wild eggs menu item is the breakfast tots. It's the potato head casserole, but they cut it up into like little tots. And it's not only think it's on the menu, you got to ask for it. Breakfast tots. That's what you want to get.

Caller/Listener (28:06)

Okay, so I'll try that the next time we are in Lexington. All right, my next question for you is, do you think Collins is going to be our star the remainder of the season?

Liam Tomlinson (28:19)

Okay, I'll answer that question, but don't before you hang up, what's your husband's name?

Caller/Listener (28:22)

If I was his landlord, his name is Dave Holmes.

Liam Tomlinson (28:27)

Dave Holmes.

Caller/Listener (28:30)

Yes. He looks die hard Kentucky fan.

Liam Tomlinson (28:32)

Well, we appreciate you calling and good luck in your marriage. You said you're engaged, so good luck. All right. Colin Chandler. The man has become Mr. Clutch. We know. We've talked ad nauseam. About it. You know, he made the pass at LSU to Malachi to hit the shot. He made the steal against Tennessee and then drove, dribbled and found away for the layup. He hit the big shot against Arkansas. He hit a big shot tonight. He has become our go to Mr. Clutch Guy. But yet he steps to the free throw line tonight to put the game away. And he missed the free throw. A 90% free throw shooter and he missed it. Thank goodness Mohammed Diabate got the rebound. Aberdeen didn't hit two free throws to put the game away. But I mean, Collins, a guy I think that struggled early, lost a little confidence and now he's got as much confidence as anybody. He's a, he's a killer out there right now.

Ryan Lemon (29:24)

Yeah. Goose said at the end of the when he missed the free throws, he's going to have to have some words with Colin because he already put two down on the scorecard.

Liam Tomlinson (29:31)

Well, yeah, he's 90%. You think? Okay, this is, this is. Who we want at the foul line is Colin Chandler. But yeah, he's become a superstar. And one guy we haven't mentioned yet provided a great spark was Jasper Johnson. Came in, made a three, made a tough shot, made a couple great passes, dove, stuck his nose, dove on the floor a couple times after loose balls. He provided a spark in that first half when Tennessee was like starting to run away with the basketball game.

Ryan Lemon (29:57)

That's what I'm meant talking about when I feel like these guys are finding their roles. Last couple of weeks, him and Garrison are really finding a spot on the team. They're not the star player, but they're stepping up and making big time plays and big time moments. The little things diving on the floor. You hit a bucket here and there. Don't let the lead get out of hand. You keep chipping away, chipping away by making the little plays. Rome wasn't building a day, you know, brick by brick. Ryan.

Liam Tomlinson (30:18)

Oh, my goodness. Philosophy by Liam Tomlinson right here. Who we got next?

Ryan Lemon (30:23)

Badger.

Liam Tomlinson (30:23)

Badger. Go ahead, Badger.

Caller/Listener (30:25)

Hey, guys, how's it going?

Liam Tomlinson (30:27)

How you doing?

Caller/Listener (30:27)

I want to come in, dude. I mean, awesome. Awesome. After this, right? 4 and 1 against Tennessee under Pope. It's always a great day when you beat them, especially Chris Austin being in the building. And that's. That's my old Mason county classmate. Love you, bro. But everybody that played tonight contributed to the team. It was a complete gritty team win. Of course we got out, rebounded. We had, I think we had a big foul disparity at 1.2 I think it closed the gap. But you know, Noah came in and actually, you know, he rebounded. He didn't hit a shot. He rebounded. He played actually really good on ball defense. Everyone contributed. We rebounded when we had to. When we had to get a stop, we got to stop. We got a block. And that was just a complete, complete victory. Go Big blue. Go Cats. Cast by 90. Love my team, love my squad.

Liam Tomlinson (31:29)

Appreciate it, Badger. I think there's a lot of team are like that. Maybe we're a little doubting this team now. We're falling in love with this team because of the heart and the fight coming from behind and all these wins. Of course you're going to fall in love with this team. So a great night to be. Downtown Lexington, by the way, was rocking. It took me a little while to get here because, man, there are cars and people walking everywhere because everybody stayed to the very end of the game. No, nobody wanted to leave that game to see how it's going to end up. So I hope everybody's partying safely tonight because here we are at one o' clock in the morning. It's still crowded and crazy outside. All right, we'll take our take a break, we'll come back. We'll go back to phone lines. 859-280-2287.

Jules all right, the big game is.

Matt Jones (33:46)

Almost here and with a full day ahead, let's take talk about something people forget.

Caller/Listener (33:52)

Hydration.

Matt Jones (33:53)

Hydration may not get as much attention as snacks or drinks today, but your body knows the score and may show signs of dehydration. Exactly.

Liam Tomlinson (34:02)

Because dehydration sneaks up on you and.

Matt Jones (34:05)

Most don't know these seven signs Thirst, Nausea, Fatigue, Headaches, Irritability, Brain fog. Don't forget to look at your pee. That could be your body throwing a penalty flag on hydration. By the time you notice the signs, you may already be playing hydration catch up.

Liam Tomlinson (34:23)

Good thing Liquid IV is clinically demonstrated.

Matt Jones (34:26)

To hydrate faster and more effectively than water alone. They've got options for everyone from hydration multiplier to Sugar Free, which has three times the electrolytes of leading sports drink.

Liam Tomlinson (34:39)

Plus Sugar Free comes in great flavors.

Matt Jones (34:42)

Like raspberry lemonade and rainbow sherbet. And it's an excellent source of five essential vitamins like B3, B5, B6, B12 and vitamin C. Enjoy victory today by staying hydrated.

Complete Disclosures available at public.comdisclosures the Cats a winner 7471 over Tennessee over at Rupp arena after being down 14 points at halftime. What an amazing, amazing, amazing comfort behind win again for this Kentucky Wildcat basketball team. They've now won eight of their last nine SEC games, which just blows my mind, and are now 8 and 3 overall in the conference. Now there was another comfort behind win tonight. Liam and I were sitting here watching it. North Carolina came from behind on their home floor and Seth Trimble hits a last second shot to beat Duke. Then the North Carolina fans storm the court. Now we would. UK fans, I think are ingrained from the time they're born. You never, ever, ever storm the court at Rupp Arena. You just don't do it. North Carolina, the Dean Dome is kind of in that category in that conversation at least. And the fans stormed the court like crazy when they hit that last second try to be Duke. So I guess the spontaneity of it I can kind of see. But still, even if, like Colin Chandler, if, let's just say that shot he hit was the last second shot and they came from behind to beat Tennessee tonight, Kentucky fans still would not have stormed the court, would they?

Ryan Lemon (37:14)

I don't think in my lifetime and your whole lifetime this court has ever been stormed.

Liam Tomlinson (37:19)

Never. Never. Not in Kentucky, not at UK ever.

Ryan Lemon (37:23)

Go to jail for like a year here for that.

Liam Tomlinson (37:25)

Now we do it at Kroger Field. You know, that's a little different. You just don't do it. At Rubber, you're expected to win every game. And I think at the Dean Dome you're expected to win even when it's Duke on the other side.

Ryan Lemon (37:38)

Yeah, I mean that's, it's exciting. The moment's exciting. You should be hugging everybody around you, maybe like a mosh pit in the crowd. But getting onto the court, I mean, I get the emotions get to you. I've been. I was at West Virginia when they defeated Kansas. That's a place where you storm the court.

Liam Tomlinson (37:50)

Sure, yeah. Most places you do.

Ryan Lemon (37:52)

It's a top 10 matchup.

Liam Tomlinson (37:54)

Now the crazy thing is they had to get everybody off the court and put.4 seconds back on the clock to finish the game to give Duke one last chance. And then they stormed the court a second time. So he's actually stormed it twice tonight. So I don't know. I just don't think the Dean Dome and Rupp arena and Cameron Indoor, the Kansas arena, you just don't do it there. You're expected to win those games.

Ryan Lemon (38:21)

They're called blue bloods for a reason. I don't think even Yukon, the new blood, I don't think they're storming the court.

Liam Tomlinson (38:26)

You're right. You're right. That's. You're expected to win. All right. 859-280-2287. Let's line up some more phone calls. Who we got? Liam.

Ryan Lemon (38:34)

Darlene.

Liam Tomlinson (38:35)

Darlene. Go ahead, Darlene.

Caller/Listener (38:38)

Hey, guys. I mean, it's kind of in the middle tonight, but I'm so pumped about the game.

Liam Tomlinson (38:44)

Can't go to sleep.

Caller/Listener (38:45)

Big UK fan, Harlan county, proud Trent Noah and just happy to be a part of something so special. Kentucky beating Tennessee again, a sweep. I love it.

Liam Tomlinson (39:01)

There's something about Tennessee that Trent Noah likes because Trent has played well in both games this year against Tennessee. Yeah.

Caller/Listener (39:08)

And I mean. I mean, we have some great players, but I'll be honest with you, I was having tears at 141 because we were behind one. I wanted that game so bad. And celebrating just in the middle of the night celebrating with you guys. Such a special night. Thank you.

Liam Tomlinson (39:28)

All right, darling. Appreciate the phone call. Stay up all night with us, why don't you? Why not? Because, hey, Kentucky, another come from behind winning. Now, you know, you got to think every game now. When they get down, you can't give up on them like our boy Andy. Everybody knows Andy. Our caller to ksr, he gave up at halftime and actually fell asleep, went to sleep. He woke up after the game to find out they'd won. So, Andy, thank you. Learned a lesson tonight, pal. You got to stay up the whole game with this basketball team. Who we got next?

Ryan Lemon (39:55)

Terry in Shepherdsville.

Liam Tomlinson (39:56)

Terry in Shepherdsville. Go ahead, Terry.

Caller/Listener (40:00)

Yeah. Guys, I know something that may have got lost at the last of the game with Chandler's three. That pass by owe was unbelievable. I mean, it seemed like he was kind of caught up. If you've ever played the game, you get caught, you jump, and you don't know what you're going to do. And he throws that pass out there. Just great. Great pass by. Oh way. Of course, I know Chandler had to make the shot. And like everybody else, I. I was shocked that Chandler Missed the free throw but Diabate with. With the rebound and then and Aberdeen money at the line. Just a great, great win. I know. I, I'm glad we got the week off. Going down to Florida. That's going to really be tough. So I hope the fans understand that's going to be almost an impossible game to win.

Liam Tomlinson (41:04)

Yeah.

Caller/Listener (41:05)

Down there at Florida. But we just, just great gut check by the guys night and I'll hang up and listen.

Liam Tomlinson (41:11)

I appreciate it. Terry. Yeah we did talk about that pass and it was just an amazing pass to feel he got to kind of get caught up and no man zone and no man land down underneath the basket and he. It's almost like he had a backhand two handed pass out to find Chandler out there. So Terry's right. Chandler hit the shot but that pass was just as important. And then the Mo's offensive rebound after Chandler missed a free throw, I mean he was on the left side of the lane. Got the rebound on the right side of the lane. That's just, that's just drinking the want to juice that just fight and heart right there going after it got it to Aberdeen who got fouled and hit the two free throw shots. So. Absolutely. But it is going to be tough going down to Florida next week. Florida just dismantled Texas A and M tonight at A and M. It's going to be tough. It's one of those games ride pencil before the season that's in loss, you know. But you got a week to get ready for them. So you never know. Liam. You never know.

Ryan Lemon (42:00)

Every game in the SEC is tough and we should celebrate this win against Tennessee tonight because you're right, we're all looking ahead a little bit.

Liam Tomlinson (42:06)

You're right.

Ryan Lemon (42:07)

Every game's tough. You can't overlook Georgia after Florida. You can't overlook Auburn. Auburn's been having a great season.

Liam Tomlinson (42:12)

Yeah, if we.

Ryan Lemon (42:13)

We're on fire right now. We're a hot team. If you play against anybody in the country right now we're going to battle and fight it out. We're doing the little things right. We're winning these close games. We're winning these rock fights that everyone's saying right now this team. I really like where this team is at. As some coach would say we're peaking at the right time. I just love the energy these guys have. Like it all just felt so discombobulated and that was the issue. But it really. You can feel the camaraderie with the team and I think so energy is just contagious. It's Like, I. I did not have a doubt when they were down 65, 62 today. And then you get the Moreno hook shot. That was to make it 67, 66. But they made it. It was a garrison put back to make it 65, 64. It just felt like they weren't out of it, at least in my opinion. I viewed this team so much differently today than I have earlier in the season, and I just had so much more confidence in them. I don't know where it's coming from. I mean, it's because the results are proving themselves.

Liam Tomlinson (43:04)

Yeah. Well, defense, they played so well the second half. They limited Tennessee to 6 of 30 shooting. They took 30 shots and only hit 6 in the second half. That's because of the job Chandler was doing it on. Amen. And the job that away was doing on Gillespie. They had zero three pointers in the second half. They had eight in the first half. Tennessee did zero in the second half. That's because the defense and the changes in the adjustments they made at halftime. All right, who's next?

Ryan Lemon (43:32)

Jerry.

Liam Tomlinson (43:33)

Jerry. Go ahead, Jerry. Jerry.

Ryan Lemon (43:39)

Dustin.

Liam Tomlinson (43:40)

Dustin. Let's try. Dustin, are you there? Dustin?

Caller/Listener (43:44)

Yeah, Ron.

Liam Tomlinson (43:46)

All right, let's go, Dustin.

Caller/Listener (43:49)

Yeah. We came down here from Kentucky for my little brother's birthday, and we're in Knoxville, and we went to Market Square to a sports bar to watch the game. And I'm telling you, when Colin Chandler hit that three, you've never heard a more silent sports bar. It was so awesome to watch them Tennessee fans after chirping the whole game being up 14 at halftime. It was so awesome that I just. You can't say anything more about Colin Chandler. Like, he's so clutch. It was fantastic.

Liam Tomlinson (44:23)

Well, we appreciate it. Just be careful when you're leaving because the women might chew tobacco, spit and spit it on your shoe as you're walking out of there. So just be. Be careful when you're down walking around in Knoxville. 859-280-2287. Colin Chandler. Yes, he is the. He's Mr. Clutch right now. Out of all the guys on the team, always may be the best offensive player, but if I need one guy to shoot a bucket and we need a bucket, it's him. He's a guy. I want the ball in his hands.

Ryan Lemon (44:48)

Tom Leach was calling him Captain Clutch today.

Liam Tomlinson (44:50)

Oh, is that his new nickname? Captain Clutch? It might be found out. Matt said on the pregame show that Colin Chandler lives. Is living in Matt's old apartment. Maybe there's something for that apartment. Little mojo that Matt Left over there for him.

Ryan Lemon (45:06)

The old apartment.

Liam Tomlinson (45:07)

Matt's old apartment, yeah.

Ryan Lemon (45:08)

Naked Ladies.

Liam Tomlinson (45:10)

Is that. Is that a Bare Naked lady song? Yeah. I didn't know that. Bare Naked Ladies also has the theme song for Big Bang Theory, and I found that out this week. All right, let's get one more, then we'll take a break. Who we got?

Matt Jones (45:23)

Bones.

Liam Tomlinson (45:24)

Bones, Go ahead, Bones.

Caller/Listener (45:27)

Man, let me tell you, Captain Clutch is the killer, first of all. And second of all, I just want to put it out here on the radio. I work with the Tennessee fan, and he has been talking trash all week. And I want to say, who is your daddy?

Liam Tomlinson (45:44)

Mark Pope is their daddy.

Caller/Listener (45:47)

That's right, Mark. Poster daddy. Kathy Quest is the captain of the ship. And Go, Cats, baby.

Liam Tomlinson (45:54)

All right. Appreciate it, Bones. Yeah. Mark Pope owns Rick Barnes in Tennessee, beating them four out of five times. Prime. Face him again in the SEC tournament, maybe the NCAA tournament. Bring it on. You know, you look at it on paper, it's not a great matchup for us because, like, who was really going to guard Nate? Amen. Going into the game? We had, you know, that. That question came up, you know, he. Dude is 610, 611. We have nobody that can guard him. Yet Colin Chandler somehow found a way to disrupt him and make him a little uncomfortable. Where he had a bad will. He had 10 points, but it wasn't like he had the first half.

Ryan Lemon (46:30)

He was hitting.

Liam Tomlinson (46:30)

He was hitting everything in the first half. We got time for one more before we take a break.

Ryan Lemon (46:34)

Tj.

Liam Tomlinson (46:35)

Tj. Go ahead, tj.

Caller/Listener (46:39)

Hey, Ron. How you doing, buddy?

Liam Tomlinson (46:41)

All right. How are you, tj?

Caller/Listener (46:43)

Good, man. Hey, look, I just want to say this real quick. Tennessee. There ain't nothing sucks like a big orange. I tell you that. Mark Pope is your daddy, and I tell you this. He's six and over, y', all, as a player. He's four and one against y' all as a coach. And y' all might say, oh, we got the one that counts. We beat him in the sweet 16. But what did you do the next game? Y' all still ain't got no Final Fours. Y' all still ain't got no titles, and y' all still suck like a big arm.

Liam Tomlinson (47:21)

There you go, tj. Appreciate it. You know, I do need to tell this story. Rick Barnes actually called and asked KSR to come play in their Tennessee Golf Scramble fundraiser. Golf Scramble. But Rick Barnes said, you guys, you know, it's not like it's going to take all day. We only play 14 holes. We never play the Final Four. We'll take a break. Come back. 859-280-2287.

Final Segment Local Tail Leaders KSR postgame show Cats a winner over Tennessee tonight. Those stinking Low Life Tennessee Volunteers 7471 over at Rupp Arena. You know there are certain things in life, Liam, you can count on. Death, taxes and the rule of 71. It hit again tonight. Kentucky got the rule of 71. That's always a winner. Most of the time it's a winner and it happened again tonight. But I do need to make a correction. Big Blue History on Twitter has reminded me and he's reminded me this before. He I'm gonna read his tweet. Ten years later and I still have to remind Ryan Lemon that UK did indeed storm the cord in the past back in 1973. Although he's correct, it hasn't happened at Rupp Arena. It was at Memorial Coliseum back in 1993 when UK beat Tennessee 8681 in Memorial Coliseum to win the SEC. So what's happened in Lexington never happened at RUP. There you go. From big blue history and I believe him.

Ryan Lemon (52:41)

Have they stormed at Alumni Gymnasium or Barker Hall? Do we have any information on those venues?

Liam Tomlinson (52:46)

You know, it's, it's, it's something that's, I can see like, like, let's just say Colin Chandler, the shot he hit was at the buzzer and it beats Tennessee. That come from behind win. I can see like the students, the eruption zone just kind of spontaneously spilling on the court. Although that's probably a big no, no, nobody else should do it. But I can, I can kind of see it happening in that situation. It's just something that shouldn't be done at Rupp Arena.

Ryan Lemon (53:10)

Yeah, the setup at Rupp makes it a lot more difficult to storm the court. So I think that's true a little bit too.

Liam Tomlinson (53:14)

That's true. Got to climb over some of those folks that sit there in the big, in the expensive seats on the front row. All right, our final segment. So who we got first? Blake. Blake. Go ahead, Blake.

Caller/Listener (53:27)

Hey, what's up man?

Liam Tomlinson (53:28)

Blake. Go ahead, Blake.

Caller/Listener (53:31)

Oh, key and pill. Hear that all the time at work. CD Boys. I bet I actually had the chance to go to the game tonight.

Liam Tomlinson (53:41)

What'd you think?

Caller/Listener (53:43)

And I turned it down.

Liam Tomlinson (53:46)

You turned what down?

Caller/Listener (53:47)

Can you hear me?

Liam Tomlinson (53:48)

Yes.

Caller/Listener (53:49)

To go to the game.

Liam Tomlinson (53:52)

Oh, you had a chance attorney. You had a chance to go to the game and you turned it down? Yeah. Oh, shame on you, my man. Oh, that's bad.

Caller/Listener (54:01)

That's tough luck, you know. Yeah, I'm, I'm very, very upset with myself. Shout out. CD Boys probably would have better seats with AJ but you know, maybe look.

Liam Tomlinson (54:17)

At it this way.

Caller/Listener (54:18)

I'm proud. I'm proud of the boys.

Liam Tomlinson (54:19)

Maybe the fact you didn't go is a good luck charm. Maybe you need to stay home and watch all the games. Maybe you're helped the team that way.

Caller/Listener (54:27)

Man, I stood up from the 11:50 mark in the second half at a boy. My wife looked at me like I was crazy.

Liam Tomlinson (54:33)

There we go. All right. Well Blake, we appreciate it. Thank you very much.

Caller/Listener (54:36)

Very quiet. I had a 20 month old sitting in the bed.

Liam Tomlinson (54:40)

Yeah. And I appreciate it, man. These, these late games are tough, man. 8:30 tonight we had a 9:00 clock game. I think there's another 8:30 game coming up. I don't know, I don't think it's next weekend, but it's coming up. There's another 8:30 Saturday night game I think we got coming up. Who's next?

Ryan Lemon (54:56)

John.

Liam Tomlinson (54:57)

One John one. Go ahead, John one.

Caller/Listener (55:01)

All right, I'll make it real quick. I'll make it real quick. You know how, like, I guess as fans, we like to name these Kentucky teams.

Liam Tomlinson (55:09)

Oh, yes.

Caller/Listener (55:12)

My favorite right here is for me, this is maybe personally, these are the cash Money cats. Because every time they go down, I hammer that money line and they always cash me out, dude, they always cash me out. I've made so much money on the last five or six games, it's not even funny. I love these boys. I don't care what anyone says about him. It's my favorite Kentucky team of all time. And, Ryan, I still owe you some women'sburg Dairy Queen.

Liam Tomlinson (55:40)

Oh, you're that guy.

Caller/Listener (55:41)

You come up here. I come up here during the wintertime. We can get you some chili.

Liam Tomlinson (55:46)

I remember that. It was like 10 years ago. We made some sort of bet or something. And you owe me Fleming's Dairy Queen meal from there.

Caller/Listener (55:55)

On a UFC fight. Yeah, we did.

Liam Tomlinson (55:57)

Okay.

Caller/Listener (55:58)

And then you won.

Liam Tomlinson (55:59)

All right. Appreciate it, John. Appreciate it very much. You know, Liam, there's two of us in this studio. One of us also put some money on the cats when they got down by three on Money line and won some money tonight. It wasn't me. Must mean it must have been you.

Ryan Lemon (56:14)

I told you I felt good. When they were down 65, 62, I felt like a weird sense of this team's going to pull it out. This is just felt different. We're at home. We've been clamping the. Clamping them up the whole second half. We held them to, what, 24 second half points. I mean, water always finds its level, in my opinion. You can't keep shooting that. That hot the way you were in the first half. I was kind of worried, though, with Kentucky in the first half, they weren't making free throws, but they just kind of locked in. And this team, this team, it's. We're having fun right now, Ryan. This is a fun win. It's a fun night. I'm excited for next Saturday against Florida. We got beat up a little bit tonight. You're playing big, big teams down low. Rest up because you got more. You got to face next week against.

Liam Tomlinson (56:51)

Florida, you know, but good for you because now you made some money on the game. Then also a little extra money in your pocket for coming all the way down here to do the show for Valentine's Day. For Valentine's Day. You did mention free throws. If there was one negative tonight, Kentucky was only 13 of 22 from the free throw line and I think didn't they miss like their first five? They missed like their first four or five free throws to start the game. 13 of 22. Got to clean that up. You know, you pull it out tonight, but you got to clean that up, especially with these tough games coming up. All right, who we got next?

Ryan Lemon (57:21)

John 2.

Liam Tomlinson (57:22)

John 2. Go ahead, John 2.

Caller/Listener (57:25)

Thanks, Ron. Thanks for taking my call. It's always a good night when you beat Tennessee. Matt shared the link earlier on the Tennessee postgame show. That was some of the funniest stuff I've ever heard. All they could talk about was ksr, which was great. It's all rent free, Nate. Amen. Tonight was awesome in the first half. Second half, not as much. But will that replace Chris Lofton is the best performance ever in rep arena for you?

Liam Tomlinson (57:52)

No comment on that. I got my. Got me in trouble one time when this. They mistook something that I was trying to say. But yeah, Nate, amen. The first half was. He was the best player in the country. He was awesome. He could not miss. And I saw the second half of his game. The who they're playing now, but he had like 24 points in the second half of his last game. So the dude is definitely one of the top players in the country and he's just a freshman, but Colin Chandler totally did the job on him in the second half. What else you got?

Caller/Listener (58:23)

He really did. And I'm actually re watching the second half and I just saw his Last shot with 16 seconds left and missed the. Kind of ended the game. And yeah, overall, just, you know, what a comeback this team, you can never kind of count them out. You know, it's. It's been awesome. But you know, when Chandler got the ball and you kind of knew it was going in, he's that sharpshooter. And you know, I think his. His new nickname should be the super Soaker. I think he's great.

Liam Tomlinson (58:49)

Appreciate it. John too. Yeah, you know, the nicknames will start coming. You know, everybody wants to rename this team the Comeback Cats. We've already had Comeback cats. That's the 98 team. But there'll be enough suggestions. We'll maybe figure one out. All right, who's next? Nick. Nick. Go ahead, Nick.

Caller/Listener (59:07)

Hey, Ryan. Nothing sucks like a big orange that color is right. And Colin Chandler, if he'd have made that free throw at the end, he'd have hit my parlay. But since he didn't, it. Yeah, it's one of those nuts. But hey, these cats are on to Something, I forget what they've won how. So many games out of so many. But they are on to something. Credit to Mark Pope. Let's go beat those nasty Gators down in the swamp.

Liam Tomlinson (59:35)

There we go, Nick. Appreciate it. Yeah, they've won. Kentucky's won eight of their last nine. The guy mentioned about, you know, the free throws at the end. The over, under, I think, was a 146 and a half and it ended 145. How do they do this? How are they so on top of it? How can they name an over under on a game two days before they even play it and then it's almost exactly to that number every single time? How do they do it?

Ryan Lemon (60:03)

Well, they have those towers for a reason, I guess, these analytics. I'm not a big analytic guy. I mean, I'm an analytic guy. I believe in analytics in a way, but they. They have all these numbers. They're crunching. It's. They just know. They've been doing it so long, it's insane.

Liam Tomlinson (60:14)

I thought for sure they'd be over. So I bet the over. Nope. 1:45. He was the under. All right, Take another phone call. Who we got?

Ryan Lemon (60:21)

Chase.

Matt Jones (60:22)

Chase.

Liam Tomlinson (60:22)

Go ahead, Chase.

Caller/Listener (60:25)

Hey, Ryan, how are y'? All?

Liam Tomlinson (60:27)

What's up? Chase, it's our golfer from Lindsay Wilson College.

Caller/Listener (60:33)

Just careful, late night thoughts here. Will Colin Chandler or Elway make a bigger shot in the NCAA tournament? Or will Denzel Aberdeen next week have revenge game at Fort on his mind? And there's nothing like beating the Tennessee Volunteers and meeting them twice in the same season.

Liam Tomlinson (60:58)

Appreciated, Chase. Yeah, I hadn't thought about that. Aberdeen going back to his old stomping ground next Saturday at Florida. Usually those games don't ever work out. Usually the player doesn't have a very good game because he presses too much. You know, Diabate didn't have his greatest game against Alabama. They just don't seem to play that well. And I say that. But yet, whatever reason, Ortega always seems to thrive against Oklahoma. You know, he had the two game winners against Oklahoma last year. Played well against Oklahoma earlier this week. So maybe Aberdeen is mature enough that he can handle that going back to Florida because they're going to need him. Florida's. Florida is definitely the best team to conference and they proved it tonight with their big win over over A and M. At A and M. All right, who's next?

Ryan Lemon (61:41)

Stoney.

Liam Tomlinson (61:41)

Okay. Is this the guy that just got married? Stoney, are you all right?

Caller/Listener (61:45)

Ryan, you just got married, right? Ryan, you got married today on the Night. Getting married. Biggest comeback ever at Rupp Arena. Unbelievable. Let's go, Cats. C A T S. Cats. Cats. Cats. Let's go.

Liam Tomlinson (62:06)

Stoney, where aren't you supposed to be on your honeymoon right now? If you just got married today, why are you calling the postgame show?

Caller/Listener (62:13)

Because we're sitting in our family room after we watch the Cats beat those dip spinning girls tonight.

Liam Tomlinson (62:21)

So you got married, cut the cake, went home to watch the game.

Caller/Listener (62:27)

It was kind of. I needed insurance. Got laid off earlier in the year. I needed some insurance. So we got married for that we have. The honeymoon's a little bit later down the road. Ryan.

Liam Tomlinson (62:35)

Gotcha.

Caller/Listener (62:35)

I know about that. You've been married a couple times.

Liam Tomlinson (62:37)

Yeah, I'm so good at it. I've done it twice.

Caller/Listener (62:41)

See, you know.

Liam Tomlinson (62:42)

Well, look, we had.

Caller/Listener (62:43)

We had jail dash. Like you have to, man, you know, you gotta make. You gotta make ends meet when it. When it comes down to it.

Liam Tomlinson (62:50)

We had Jelly Kelly called earlier who just got engaged today. And then Stoney comes in, our last caller in our last segment, and stumps everybody. He just got married today.

Caller/Listener (63:00)

Thank you for that.

Liam Tomlinson (63:01)

Got married today. Well, congratulations to you. Put your. Put your wife on the phone here for a second.

Caller/Listener (63:06)

She's on the phone. Michelle's here.

Liam Tomlinson (63:08)

Michelle. How are you, Michelle?

Caller/Listener (63:11)

I'm good.

Liam Tomlinson (63:12)

What you think about getting married and then hustling home to watch a basketball game?

Caller/Listener (63:19)

It's like any other day. We just got married and watch the Cats.

Liam Tomlinson (63:25)

Well, congratulations. A good way to celebrate is watching a big win like that for sure. So now hang up with us and do the things you're supposed to do on your honeymoon.

Caller/Listener (63:34)

Well, absolutely.

Liam Tomlinson (63:36)

Congratulations. How about bow, Bow, Bow, bow. Man, I tell you what, that's a perfect way to end it right there. Can we end it right there?

Ryan Lemon (63:44)

I think so.

Liam Tomlinson (63:45)

I think so too. The dude just got married, went home to celebrate by watching Kentucky beat Tennessee. And then they win in a dramatic fashion towards the end. Stoney, go buy a lottery ticket, dude. Today's your day. So now you gotta. Now you gotta work on getting that honeymoon coming up because Michelle's gonna hold you to that. So look, that's it. Kentucky a winner, 74, 71 over Tennessee. They've now won eight of their last nine SEC games or seven games left. And there's some tough ones. They got Florida twice. They got Vanderbilt at home. They got Georgia at home. They got the South Carolina on the road I think at Auburn. So, I mean, there's some at A and M. So you have to go at Florida, at A and M at Auburn yet. I mean, there's some tough games coming up, but with this heart and the fight this team's got, I don't doubt them at all. Not anymore. I do not doubt this team. You shouldn't either. Liam. Good job, man. Good working with you tonight.

Ryan Lemon (64:37)

The honor's mine, Ryan Lemon.

Thirty years ago, Scream changed horror forever. Now it's all led to this. In Scream 7, Sidney Prescott thought she'd finally escaped the nightmare of Ghostface. Raising her family in a quiet town far away from the horrors of Woodsboro. She was wrong. And this time, the target isn't just her. It's her teenage daughter, Tatum, who's the same age Sidney was when the terror began. Neve Campbell returns in her iconic final girl role as Sidney Prescott, facing the most brutal and psychological ghostface yet, joined by franchise favorites Courtney Cox, Jasmine Savoy Brown and Mason Gooding alongside terrifying new blood including Isabel May McKennie Grace, Asa Gurman and more. Directed by franchise creator Kevin Williamson in his directorial debut, Scream 7 is packed with edge of your seat scares and shocks for everyone, with references and callbacks for screen fans everywhere. Ghostface is the terrifying horror icon alongside Freddy Jason and Michael Myers. And after 30 years, the mask still means one no one is safe. See Scream 7 in theaters February 27, because screams are always better when you hear them together.
