Billy Gilespie wasn't wearing green on this wonderful St. Patrick's Day afternoon at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky.
But the Ags had the luck of the Irish by staying alive as one of the top 16 teams in the nation.
It was essentially a home game for Louisville and it was pretty much officiated like one as well. Sosa (no, not the bat corking, steriod taking baseball player, but rather a more annoying one, at least on this particular day, that held the Cardinals in it. Pitino even said after the game that they would have lost by 20 had Sosa not had the game of his life.
"It's an amazing feeling. I don't have any words to describe it," Acie Law IV said. "It's huge for this program."
I didn't make it to the gym today, but I still got my cardio workout this afternoon. I had an appointment at 2:30 and had to TIVO the game. I was screening my calls, sure that someone was going to call me and spoil it, like what happened earlier this season when I TIVO'ed the TT game.
I love TIVO, it's one of the best inventions in the last 10 years! But every once in a while, it comes back to haunt me (like the above scenario). Occasionally it will cut-off if a game goes into overtime, extra innings, etc. but I learned my lesson early and have set the recorder to record an extra hour or hour and a half. So I guess the moral of this story is don't ever call me to discuss any Rockets, Astros, Chicago Bears or Aggie game unless it is at least 4-6 hours past the end of the game. Don't be a spoiler! ;)
Hope your St. Patrick's Day is exceedingly green.... and maroon! ;)
Gig'em Ags!
