I guess I'm different, because I'm not good enough to tell the difference at speed between aggressive defense and the "dirty low down hacking" that everyone talks about. A team that really slaps the floor and plays balls out defense is going to be physical. Kentucky was just as physical yesterday. Body bumps, hip checks, hands all over, elbows flying. Quit crying and play. It's up to the refs to blow the whistle if it's over the line. Now, there was a lot of acting on Louisville's side, but Harrison has done the "head jerk" all year too. Jones' flop was still one of the funniest I've ever seen, largely because of the jaw rubbing 30 seconds later. I'm sure the kid regrets it today.
Mark, watch the video of Stein and Harrell.
https://vine.co/v/OHx22OnngBn He didn't get pushed. He was hustling as hard as he could to get to the ball and fell forward. Loved the effort by both. I liked Harrell's emotion and I think he got a bum wrap from the media after the semi-punch following his gang rape by 3 Hilltoppers.
As for Andrew Harrison, he needed to go over in the corner and take a dump so that he could come back to Lexington and tell folks he did something there yesterday. LOL
Can't let the rivalry cloud your reality. Kentucky fans are convinced that Louisville is a bunch of dirty hack-attack thugs. Louisville fans are convinced that Kentucky is a bunch of cheating store-bought premadonnas. Both are baseless and void of truth. They're all kids playing basketball for iconic coaches at big time programs. Nothing more.
