I had not seen this particular video. It is a good one that shows almost every shot Rex made in the game. That was a fun game to watch live. :thumbup:

Oh how I soooo remember that game. My red hubby and I had only been married about a year. We were at a game party. I almost felt sorry for him. Most of the people there were UK fans. I think that deepened his already hatred for UK and the fact I was a fan. I kept very quiet during the game. It was all I could do to contain myself.

As great as that game was, the thing I will always remember about it is that I had tickets to the game and didn't get to go. I was living in Louisville at the time, had tickets and planned to go. My now ex-wife insisted that we go to her parents house in South Carolina for the holidays.
The folks to whom I gave my tickets raved about how great it was to humiliate UofL in Freedom Hall.
I don't think I ever really forgave her for making me miss that game. Maybe that's why she's my ex-wife.
On a more substantive note, I believe Rex is probably the greatest Kentucky High School product in my lifetime.

I was at the game and we were one of the few fans left in our section at the end. It was great to hear the UL fans mumbling to themselves as the came down the stairs.

I loved this game. I was 12 at the time growing up in Indiana so we didn't get all of the games. That was one of the 2 must wins for me, UL and IU. Rex is my favorite UK player of all time.
It would be really amazing to beat them that bad this year :) I guess thats pretty easy to say, bit harder to do :) GO CATS!!!!!
