SCAR at Okie State at 9:30 EST on ESPNU
Kentucky at Baylor at 10:00 EST on ESPN

Eta: SCAR has already played at Baylor losing by a point, so we should expect Kentucky to blow them out.

Okie State is going to be a tough game for SCAR, but we'll see how far Frank Martin has come with his seven freshmen and a transfer sophomore, although Bruce Ellington does rejoin the team and is expected to play tonight.

How did LSU pick up Baylor tonight?

Damnit ... still hungover from last night after getting a shipment of Lemoncella in from Naples. Dang near drank an entire bottle by myself.

Right, Kentucky at Baylor. My bad.

UK's men is playing at 10 pm because UK's women is playing Baylor's women at 7 pm in Arlington. The women's game is a Top 10 matchup. It got scheduled as a doubleheader.

Scrooster, I love your optimism…but Okie State is going to lay a smack down on the Cocks tonight.

I can see Smart having one of those nights.

Didn't South Carolina almost beat Baylor this year?

Yeah, I know, me too really ... but I'm hopeful. I suspect it may get ugly but I gotta Gamecock until the bitter end. Who knows, stranger things have happened. We're playing decent defense and we've got some solid young talent, but this is going to be a major challenge for them, no doubt about it.

Yes, but Baylor had a good game vs the Cuse.

Baylor matches UK in length and athleticism…going to be a tough game for the Cats in Jerry's World. I imagine the shooting for the game is going to be Gawd awful because of the sight lines for the players.

I think the Cats win in the end…maybe by 5.

Lost by two ... we were fouled in the final second and thought we were going to get a chance to go to the line to tie, but the instant replay official determined time ran out 1/100th of a second before the shot was put back up.

We've got to hit the shots from around the basket to stay close.

This team is pretty frustrating to watch because they'll work the ball down low and get a quality shot but botch it

He must have been a Big 12 official.

Yes he was. You would think the tie would go to the shooter ... but in this case it did not. They took almost ten minutes reviewing it, and Martin just laughed and shook his head when they called it in favor of Baylor.

Admittedly, it was bang bang.

We need to hit above 60% of our shots tonight to win.
