What to Watch for Against IU

The unranked University of Kentucky Wildcats (4-2) at #15 Indiana University (7-1)
Bloomington Indiana
TV CBS 4:00 PM est, Verne Lundquist and "The Lovable" Billy Packer

1. Battle of Super Freshman
Even though they play different positions, Indiana University's shooting guard, Eric Gordon will be in action against the University of Kentucky's power forward Patrick Patterson. Gordon is averaging 24 ppg and 3.5 boards a game. Patterson is averaging 16 ppg game and 8.8 boards. Gordon is expected to play after bruising his lower back against Tennessee Tech.

2. Brothers in Action
IU Freshman Jordan Crawford will be going up against his older brother Joe Crawford. Jordan is averaging 12.6 ppg, 2.6 apg and 2.6 boards per game. The senior Joe is averaging 18 ppg, 1.7 apg, and 4.3 rpg. Jordan was suspended for 3 games for violating team rules. He makes his return against the Wildcats. Playing for a coach with NO integrity, Jordan must have done something pretty serious to be suspended.

3. Billy Gillisie vs. "The Cheater" Kelvin Sampson
Two different coaching styles clash in this game on Saturday. The disciplinarian Billy G. will have to be on his game against prolific cheater Sampson. No cell phones allowed.

4. D.J. White vs. Patrick Patterson
These two big man should be going at it down low all game. White is the senior averaging 14 ppg and 8.6 boards, but Patterson will have the athletic edge. Or course Billy G. might send Perry Stevenson out there as the sacrificial lamb to absorb some of the banging and fouls.

5. Calling Alex Legion
Will he be there? Is he on the team? Did Jesus Christ talk to Legion's mother? All questions will be answered hopefully very soon. Latest word is that Legion (and the Lord Our God) asked to be back on the team, Billy G. has yet to render a decision.

Final thoughts
Indiana has a about a 6-8 man rotation. Kentucky has .............Well a variety of players who play sometimes. Coach Gillispie has yet to decide on a starting lineup or a steady rotation for that matter. Will the Cats be able to get into the flow of the game early or will they be unmotivated and fall behind in the first half. I am guessing they come out flat, fall behind and stay behind. IU wins easily 77 to 63.
