Mike DeCourcy of the Sporting News, points our how Davis’ early foul and Kidd-Gilchrist getting his jumper going really impacted the way last night’s game against IU played out.
Here’s an excerpt;
[LEFT][COLOR=#000000][FONT=sans-serif][I]In a game Kentucky won 102-90 to advance its third consecutive NCAA Elite Eight, how could two sequences possibly mean so much? There were 133 field-goal attempts, 54 free throws, 14 turnovers.

UK played most of the first 20 minutes without a true center, with 6-9 Terrence Jones forced to defend Zeller while he remained in the game. The Wildcats were fortunate that only a minute after Davis went to the bench, Zeller followed with his second.
