A Sea Of Blue: A Good Win That Could Have Been Great

SB Nation’s Kentucky blog, A Sea Of Blue, is thrilled with the win, but expected more after halftime.

For Kentucky, this represents a very good win that could have been great — not because of anything the Tar Heels did, but because UK did not appear to come out ready in the second half. Combined with John Wall’s apparent dehydration (I have no doubt he went to the locker room to take an IV), Kentucky and North Carolina literally swapped places at halftime. With UK at 43 points going into the half, who would have believed they would only score 25 points in the second half?

Truzenzuzex has plenty of observations on individual Wildcats, so be sure to head over and check them out.
