Kentucky at Georgia: Updates and analysis

sethemerson

Greetings from Stegeman Coliseum. Very big game set to tip off here at 6 p.m. Georgia students have been lined up since this morning, and the line was down the block when I pulled up a couple hours before tip-off. There were, as always, the usual blue-clad fans walking towards the arena.

So it's going to be a raucous atmosphere, as it always is when Kentucky visits.

As for the actual basketball part of it, starting lineups haven't been posted yet, but if I had to guess I'd say Georgia goes with the same starting five as last game: E'Torrion Wilrdige at small forward, with Juwan Parker at the 2, and then the usual three of Frazier, Maten and Ogbeide.

As always, I'll have updates and analysis here on the message board. Feel free to chime in.

Frazier now up to 25 points. He's doing everything he can.

Big sequence: Diatta drilled a 3 to make it 64-61, Georgia. And then Juwan Parker drew a charge after an offensive rebound – which was Briscoe’s fifth foul. He leaves the game with nine points and six rebounds.

Back-and-forth the last few minutes. J.J. Frazier nails a 3 and Georgia leads 71-69 with 2:15 left.

Frazier now with a season-high 32 points. He's having the kind of night that everyone envisioned for his senior year.

Between the offensive rebound and the review, a very long possession for Kentucky, which ends with Fox making a running layup with 1:09 left, tying it.

It's Frazier vs. Fox now: Frazier hits a running layup with 55 seconds left to put Georgia back ahead. Then Fox drives and is fouled by Ogbeide - his fifth.

Diatta got the ball on the side and tried an ill-advised runner. It was blocked easily, and in the ensuing loose ball Edwards fouled Fox. He hits both, and Kentucky leads with 27.9 seconds left.

Frazier chose to shoot early rather than hold for the last shot, and it missed. Kentucky now with free throws and a chance to go up two possessions.

Yet another heartbreaker for Georgia, which falls 82-77. It walks slowly off the court, as students and fans give them a hand.

Now we await word on Maten.
