4-22 vs Phillies -- No Griffey again

[jmac]

I think you are remembering the UK-Notre Dame game at Southbend. It was before the shot-clock, either 1982, or 1983. Digger had no chance to beat us in a regularly played game and he knew it, so he tried to hold the ball the whole game.

Including the final score.

Kentucky 24, Cincinnati 11.

It was 15 years ago today, Kentucky vs. Cincinnati in the building then known as Riverfront Coliseum. In 40 minutes of basketball, the teams attempted just 31 shots and made 15 field goals. Mostly, they dribbled and passed and stood on the court.

They set basketball back 50 years and maybe moved it forward, as well. It was a game that had a lasting effect on the sport and on the UK-UC rivalry, such as it is, and still is debated as often as any of the 467 games the Bearcats have played since.

Kentucky brought in 7-foot-1 Sam Bowie, 6-10 Melvin Turpin, 6-8 Kenny Walker and 6-7 Winston Bennett, all of whom played in the Final Four later that season and in the NBA after leaving Lexington. First-year Bearcats coach Tony Yates looked at his squad, which went on to finish 3-25, and determined the Bearcats would play a stall game


To the mods: original statement was comparing this game to reds offense so not trying to deviate off topic.
