Big Blue Booyah on Tom Leach
...in 1993, your #2 University of Kentucky Wildcats absolutely destroyed #16 Wake Forest, 103-69, in the NCAA Sweet Sixteen to move one game closer to the program's first Final Four in nine years. Many experts thought this could be a trap game for the Cats, as the Demon Deacon duo of Randolph Childress and Rodney Rogers had run roughshod over the Atlantic Coast Conference. The '93 version of the Cats, (led by their own All-American, Jamal Mashburn) would have none of it, though, as Kentucky came out like a team possessed. The team couldn't miss, darting out to leads of 20-4 and 34-8, ultimately running the halftime margin to 60-26. The weirdest thing about the affair was the fact Wake hit six of its first seven shots also.
Some ridiculous stats include:
- Kentucky made 39 baskets (including their first eight three-pointers) on 23 assists
- Wake Forest attempted 44 shots and made 21.
- Jamal Mashburn scored all 23 points (5-5 3PM) in the first half.
- Travis Ford (10-11 FG, 5-6 3PM) scored 26 points.
- Kentucky was 16-24 from three-point range on the day.
- Kentucky was 9-17 from the free throw line.
- Freshman Tony Delk finished the game 1-7 for three points.
- Senior transfer Todd Svoboda
If you can watch this clip without the hair on your neck standing up, I take it your not human. Enjoy.
