Biggest Game at MemGym

Was he there for the biggest game in Mem Gym history?

The response to the new poll has been a relatively resounding "no" as to if tomorrow represents the biggest game in Mem Gym regular season history. So, what is the biggest regular season game in Commie history? This one? If so, I'd argue that this one is a bigger deal because it is later in the season and could position the Commies to win the regular season championship. Also, we look back at that Kentucky game as big only because the Commies won.

Here is one of my favorite games in the "BARN"

1/14/03

Still reeling from the drubbing at the hands of Pitino and an outclassed Louisville team, the Cats were in a familiar position: struggling in Memorial Gym against a pesky Vandy team and seemingly veiled in a lifeless haze of TubbyBall purgatory, trailing by 12 at the half. Then, something happened…what exactly, we may never know. Maybe Tubby Incredible Hulked his French cuff or bit the head off a bat, but something just snapped at the intermission and catapulted one of the best runs in school history. Kentucky would go on to win the second half 46-16, displaying defensive intensity that would make Nick Saban erect, then ran roughshod over the SEC, becoming the first and only team in school history to sweep the SEC regular season and conference tourney. Of course, we didn’t know what was to come at the time, but in those 20 minutes you could see this team’s newfound thirst for blood.
