Jones did not have a very good game (only 7 points and 7 rebounds), mainly because he spent much of the game in foul trouble. But everyone else played well. Lamb (19 points), Miller (15 points), and Harrellson (13 points) all stood out. I also want to give credit to Knight. He was 0-6 from 3-point range and only 5-15 from the field, but he still scored 17 points (7-10 from the line), and he did a great job of dealing with all the ball pressure that had given him so much trouble down at Oxford.
Kentucky was fortunate, I thought, that Ole Miss made only 8-30 three's -- including a lot of open looks I thought they would make. But we were probably due some luck.
This is not a team that can win the national championship. And they won't have any more easy games. All we can hope is that they keep surviving and advancing. Today they did.
