    * Play KSR Game Contest: Kentucky v Texas A&M *

    It's "keep it rolling" time as the Cats attempt to build on the victory over Tennessee, and an outright battle for 2nd place in the league, as Florida (4-0) holds a 1-game lead over Georgia (3-1), Kentucky (3-1), Texas A&M (3-1) and Ole Miss (3-1).

    1. Predict the Kentucky margin of victory. If you believe that Kentucky will lose, make sure that you make it clearly known with a -- [minus sign], or something else.

    2. Predict the game high scorer, AND the total number of points he will score in the game. NOTE--it does not
    have to be a Kentucky player for this KSR point.

    3. Keep it rolling, Harrisons -- the Harrison twins scored 40 points on 10-20 shooting, 4-7 from 3-point land, and an outstanding 16-17 from the FT line. Predict the following "Yes/No" questions correctly--and then answer the mini-tiebreaker. All answers are combined for both Andrew and Aaron.

    a) Will the Harrisons beat their average again in combined points scored (they average 26)? Yes/No?
    b) Will the Harrisons shoot better than 50% from 3-point range? Yes/No?
    c) Will the Harrisons shoot better than 50% FG (including 2-point and 3-point attempts)? Yes/No?
    d) Will the Harrisons shoot better than 90% FTs? Yes/No?

    Tiebreaker--which Harrison will score more points, and how many points will the "leading Harrison scorer" score?

    TB: Keep it rolling, team--predict the UK free throw percentage for the game.

    Good luck!

    I should note--the Harrisons average 25.65 combined points per game. So scoring EXACTLY 26 would be a "Yes" vote.

    First KSR point goes to dual winners who nailed the margin on the nose--surprised me, but I'm kinda like that guy who is continously surprised when I open the refrigerator door and a light goes on.

    No 2nd KSR point awarded, as Alex-the-great was game high scorer with 16 points, and nobody picked him.

    The four "no's" has it...kudos for knocking this one down for the 3rd KSR point.

    Re: * Play KSR Game Contest: Kentucky v Texas A&M *

    And we move to the tiebreaker....Cats hit 66.7% from the FT line, not bad, not good.

    Doc said 75%, Krank said 71.5%, and UKFlounder said 60%, so the tiebreaker goes to Krank!

    Nicely done!
