Gerald Fitch Trying to hit a 3 pointer against LSU

Welcome to Kentucky Wildcats Page
No. 3 Wildcats Pick Up 20th Win; Defeat LSU, 68-57
Keith Bogans scored 20 points and Gerald Fitch added 15 as No. 3 Kentucky extended its winning streak to 14 games with a 68-57 victory over LSU on Saturday. Chuck Hayes had six points, 10 rebounds and a career-high six blocked shots, and Erik Daniels added nine points and a career-high 10 rebounds for the Wildcats (20-3, 10-0 SEC). The winning streak, the longest active streak in the nation, is Kentucky's longest in a season under coach Tubby Smith.

The Wildcats' offense then began to click.
Bogans swished a 3-pointer from the corner with 11:31 left to give Kentucky a 41-31 lead, its first double-digit advantage of the game.
The Wildcats' defense, as it has throughout their winning streak, controlled the game from that point.
The Tigers missed 15 of their first 20 shots in the second half, including five of six from 3-point range.
"The second half, we played well," Brady said. "We missed some shots we normally make."
Ronald Dupree, the SEC's seventh-leading scorer, had only four points on 2-of-7 shooting with six minutes left. He finished with 10, his lowest in an SEC game this season.
Kentucky extended its lead to 20 points before LSU rallied, cutting the lead to five by the final minute. But Daniels made two free throws with 36.1 seconds left and Bogans hit two more six seconds later to put the game away.
Fitch said the Wildcats were disappointed with how they finished.
"We kind of let the lead slip away," he said. "We could have made a 20-point lead a 30-point lead. We need to work on that."
