Game of the weekend: North Carolina at Kentucky
Here are some previews of this big game from around the net: A Sea of Blue has an early preview of the game, Jerry Tipton of Kentucky.com. CSTV's update discusses Ole Roy's thoughts on Tywon Lawson's injury, Greg Barnes of Scout.com previews the game from a UNC perspective, a local news channel News14 says that Lawson is doubtful, and so does the UNC Rivals page.

More coverage on the game: John Clay of the Sidelines Report blog and the Lexington Herald Ledger has an audio interview with ESPN's Andy Katz!. Check it out!

John Clay provides a scouting report on UNC, and a six-pack of related stories to this big game. And John Clay has a nice article on UK attendance records for non-conference games.

FireBilly.com has predictions of the game, and they "scout" Tyler Hansbrough.
