Halftime of the No. 8UK Hoops vs. No 13Georgia Bulldogs gamemay not be as talked aboutMonday as the spectacleBeyonce bestowed uponus during intermission ofthe Super Bowl.
However, what tookplace on the court at Memo-rial Coliseum was some-thing Americans should ap-preciate just as much as a

OnNationalGirls andWomen inSports

Title IX was drafted toextend equal participation ineducational programs forwomen. Although the legis-lation never even mentionssports, Title IX has becomesynonymous with women’shigh school and collegiateathletics.
Once the first half wasover, the big screen playeda video where former ath-letes and coaches detailedwhat Title IX meant tothem. For example, UK’sjunior guard Kastine Evanssaid, “Because of Title IX,I get to play in front of thebest fans in the country,”which rated well with thosein attendance. Dozens ofwomen to compete for UK,both past and present,spilled onto the court, re-ceiving rousing applausefrom the fans.
The Sue Feamster Trail-blazer Award, named afterthe first head coach ofwomen’s basketball at UK,was presented to the originalcoaches of the women’s ath-letics programs: Sue Feam-ster (basketball), SuzieStammer (field hockey),Betty Rider (golf), Leah Lit-tle (gymnastics), DelphineNemeth (volleyball), Clau-dia Young (tennis) andHarold Barnett (track andfield).

Goingdown to the wire, the Catswere defeated, 75-71, inthe closing minutes as theycouldn’t hold onto severaldouble-digit leads.
“You have to givecredit to Georgia today,”said UK head coachMatthew Mitchell. “Theyjust played really, reallytough. They were in somereal tough spots today andfaced some deficits todaythat a lot of teamswould’ve folded (under),and they didn’t.”
After the Cats took a10-point lead into halftime,the Lady Bulldogs foughtback and took their firstlead at 49-47 seven min-utes into the second half.UK pulled away again, butGeorgia climbed back intoit to take a 74-71 lead with1:12 left to play. As theseconds trickled away, theCats turned the ball over inthe final second and putGeorgia at the foul line,where the Lady Bulldogsput the Cats away.
“I just think that wewere both fortunate andtough,” said Georgia headcoach Andy Landers. “Idon’t know how good wewere, but we were tough tohave beaten a very goodKentucky team today ontheir court.”
Georgia’s two leadingscorers, seniors JasmineJames and Jasmine Has-sell, were held to 16 pointscombined, while James

LOS ANGELES — Mother’s Day hascome early at CBS: Its veteran comedy “How IMet Your Mother” will indeed return next sea-son — and it will be the final one for the series.
The entire gang is set to return for theshow’s swan song. And patient viewers of thelong-running comedy will finally learn theidentity of the enigmatic mother in the title.
CBS and 20th Century Fox TV made thenews official Wednesday after much specula-tion about the show’s fate.
The series, from Carter Bays and CraigThomas, premiered on CBS in 2005 and be-came a strong performer for the network amongadults 18-49 and among total viewers. This sea-son it is bringing in around 10 million viewers.
“Through eight years, ‘How I Met YourMother’ has mastered the art of leading-edgecomedy, emotional water-cooler moments andpop culture catch phrases,” Tassler said in astatement. “We are excited for Carter, Craigand (executive producer) Pam Fryman andthis amazing cast and to tell the final chapterand reveal television’s most mysterious moth-
er to some of TV’s most passionate fans.”Last September, Bays and Thomas had
said the uncertainty of the show’s future hadthem planning out the eighth season as its last—and expressed needing a firm “yes” or “no”soon so they could adequately resolve storylines.
“It’s going to be more and more work thatwe have to throw out if this isn’t our last sea-son,” Bays said in September. “We’d like toknow as soon as possible. If this is the lastseason of ‘How I Met Your Mother,’ it’severything we’ve dreamed of and more —thatbeing said, do we have a ninth season withinus? Absolutely. We could do a ninth season, ifit was possible.”
What might fans expect in the final run?“We have a plan to bring back many peo-
ple we’ve had on the show,” Bays said. “Notto steal their idea, but I loved the ‘Seinfeld’ fi-nale where you saw everyone that’s ever beenon the show. We have a way to do it that sortof fits in with the universe of our show.”

“At halftime I told(James), ‘Why don’t yougo out and get a coupleof quick fouls so I can setyou down and moveKhaalidah (Miller) to thepoint, because I’m feel-ing threes from her,’ ”said Landers in jest.
In the face of the loss,four Cats scored in dou-ble figures. The startersended the night on thecourt together, while sen-
ior guard A’dia Mathiesand sophomore guardJennifer O’Neill led theCats with 18 points each.Junior forward SamarieWalker added her seventhdouble-double of the sea-son with 12 points and 11rebounds, while juniorforward DeNesha Stall-worth tabbed 10 points,five steals and threeblocks.
“I just really wish wecould’ve got the win,”Mathies said. “Everytime we go on that court,we want to get the win,and I’m just down thatwe came out with the losstoday.”
The defeat ended a34-game home win streakthat spanned almost threeyears. Had the Cats won,they would have climbedto first place in the SEC,but the loss will likelyleave the Cats scrappingfor third place, sharingidentical records withGeorgia and South Car-olina.
With one home gameleft on the season, theCats will play Arkansasand Vanderbilt on theroad next weekend beforereturning to Memorial toplay South Carolina onFeb. 14 at 7 p.m.

And perfectly indicativeof the impact of Title IX wasthe game bookending thathalftime ceremony.
UK and Georgia battled
mercilessly, neither team sur-rendering until the finalbuzzer when a 75-71 Bulldogvictory was assured. Thematchup was something to be-hold: Two of the top teams inthe country displaying a vastarray of skills, making for athrilling barnburner.
If not for Title IX, thisgame couldn’t happen. Theyoung women on the UK andGeorgia rosters wouldn’t be
suited up for their schools,maybe not even enrolled.Without Title IX, their liveswould quite possibly be radi-cally different, perhaps in thenegative direction.
But because of Title IX,these women can create op-portunities to enhance theirlives that may not exist other-wise. Because of Title IX,7,016 crazed fans could cheertheir hearts out for their team.
Because of Title IX, thou-sands more could follow thegame’s broadcast on radio andtelevision.
In the 40 years since TitleIX became law, women’s ath-letics have grown exponential-ly and will continue to flour-ish.
And that’s great for all thesingle ladies, as Beyoncewould say, and even the mar-ried ones, too.

Now that we all knowwho brought home the bigprize in football, movie loverscan finally look forward totheir version of the SuperBowl, the 85th annual Acade-my Awards. In just under
three weeks,we will getto witnessall thatmakes theOscars, well,the Oscars.Host SethMacFarlanewill try toland somecracks on acrowd that isnotoriouslytough,
wardrobe malfunctions andslurred acceptance speecheswill warm our hearts, and thesound of Leonardo Dicaprio’steeth grinding through forcedsmiles will all but tie togetherAmerica’s favorite awards cer-emony.
Here are my picks for the
top four categories in thisyear’s Academy Awards.
Best Picture: “Argo”Even though Ben Affleck
was snubbed for the Best Di-rector nomination, this pow-erhouse picture has receiveduniversal acclaim while at thesame time pulling in a fat$118 million purse at the boxoffice. Every dimension ofthis film was created with anincredible attention to detailthat flowed perfectly withChris Terrio’s up-and-comingtalent for writing.
Best Director: Steven Spielberg (“Lincoln”)
This could very well beSpielberg’s third time bring-ing home the golden baconfor this category. Much likehis work in “Saving PrivateRyan,” Spielberg is workingwith a cast as stacked as theMiami Heat. With stars likeTommy Lee Jones, DanielDay-Lewis and Joseph Gor-don-Levitt, posting up as thebig three, Spielberg is morethan deserving of this coach
of the year award. Best Actress: Jessica
Chastain (“Zero Dark Thirty”)This will be a close one.
Anne Hathaway’s short, butbeautiful, role in Les Mis-érables could just as easilycome out on top. What givesChastain the edge is the emo-tionally draining yet authen-tic journey that she took au-diences on. The developmentof her character from a jitteryrookie into a stone-cold CIAveteran should definitely berewarded.
Best Actor: Daniel Day-Lewis (“Lincoln”)
Daniel Day-Lewis issomewhat of an enigma. Hedoesn’t make very manymovies, but when he does, hecompletely blows you away.Being tasked with portrayingone of the most importantfigures in world history wasno easy task, especially whenthere is little to no footage ofhis mannerisms to go off of.This win should be a cake-walk.

UK hockey (9-21-0) fellin both games to No. 9Michigan (15-10-0) thisweekend, 8-2 on Friday and6-5 in overtime on Saturday.
Because of a lazy start bythe Cats, the Wolverines exit-ed the first period on top, 2-0.
The laziness whichplagued UK that first periodwould plague the Cats thewhole game. At the end ofthe second, the Cats had yetto find the back of the cagebehind junior goaltender Bri-an Burchman.
UK’s junior defender PatWittman was the first personto net a goal in the third peri-od, cutting into the Michiganlead.
After sophomore defend-er Jacob Cohen was whistledfor roughing, the Wolverinescapitalized on the power playto regain a four-goal lead.
Michigan senior forwardAustin Murtland was whistledfor the hook on freshman de-fender Alex Townsend andthis time it was the Cats’ jun-ior forward Matt McLaughlinwho was able to score a powerplay goal. With 10 minutes re-maining in the third, Michiganheld a 5-2 lead.
The Wolverines wouldnever relinquish the lead andwould go on to win the game,8-2.
On Saturday, a very dif-ferent Cats team skated ontothe ice at the Yost Ice Arena.
“We were passing a lotbetter. The forecheck was alot better. All out hustle thewhole game,” MattMcLaughlin said.
About halfway throughthe first period, Michiganwas whistled for too manymen on the ice. Junior de-fenseman Jeremy Schmidtfired a shot on sophomoregoaltender Ryan Hayes.
Hayes’ rebound sprung rightto the stick of junior forwardRyan Thomas. Thomas’ shotbeat Hayes to create a 1-0Cats lead.
After coming up withseveral huge saves for theCats’ defense, junior goal-tender Aaron Tenfelde was fi-nally beaten by senior for-ward Robbie Fulton. The twoteams would exit the first tiedat one.
“We did a lot better onthe defensive end,” Townsendsaid.
Shortly after the start ofthe second, Matt McLaughlinfired a backhand shot thateven he didn’t see hit theback of the net.
Junior forward NickHouser would see to it thatthe Cats would not have aneasy time of it as he wouldfire a shot that would go topshelf behind Tenfelde to tiethe game once more during a5-on-3 power play for the
Wolverines.“We’ve got to stay out of
the box,” junior forward MattHudzinski said.
Sophomore forward An-drew Baron would put thepuck behind Hayes to put UKback on top. After that goal,Michigan would pull Hayesto favor Burchman once morein net.
The Cats would exit thesecond period ahead ofMichigan, 3-2.
Ten minutes into thethird, the Wolverines hadscored three unansweredgoals to take a lead of 5-3.The Cats weren’t going to godown as easily as they didFriday night, however.
On a penalty to sopho-more forward KeatonSchwarz, senior forward Dy-lan Rohar would find the netbehind Burchman to pull theCats within one.
Shortly after, Hudzinskiwould net the tying goal for
the Cats.Regulation ended with
the teams tied at five apiece. A minute and a half into
sudden-death overtime, theWolverines would nail thecoffin shut on the Cats, get-ting the puck behind Tenfeldeto seal their victory.
“We need to play smarter(in the future). Five on fivewe were killing them, butshorthanded they got us,”Matt McLaughlin said.
The Cats are back homethis Friday against D-I Indi-ana before traveling to Indi-ana on Saturday.

Hockey drops 2nd game to Michigan in overtime
PHOTO BY JAMES HOLT | STAFFUK captain Sean McLaughlin unloads a hard slap shot at the Toledogoalie in UK’s game on Jan. 13.
The blow-out win atAuburn was an apparition.Head coach John Calipariwas right three weeks agoafter the narrow win overTennessee — a cellar-dwelling team in a reelingleague.
These Cats aren’t goingto “whomp” many teams.
“I can’t imagine thisteam being up 20 on any-body, because you get up
12-15 andsomeonewill try tosteal a ball,they willfoul orleave theirfeet,” Cali-pari said af-ter the gameagainst theVolunteerson Jan. 15.“We are go-ing to be in
dogfights. This team is notcapable of that (beatingteams by big margins).”
They did enough lastweek, however, to close outtwo crucial conference roadwins.
Tuesday night in Oxford,Miss., the Cats piddled awaya 17-point lead in one fellswoop, allowing a 16-0 OleMiss run to turn a whomp-ing into a nail-biter.
The big run has been thebugaboo of this team allyear. Louisville, Vanderbilt,Texas A&M, Alabama andnow Ole Miss have executedgame-changing runs againstthe Cats.
When the Rebels’ runwas just 6-0, Calipari calleda timeout to stem the tideand set up the offense. Cali-pari likely didn’t draw up aplay to set up a contested18-foot jump shot by fresh-man guard Archie Goodwinwith nearly 30 seconds lefton the shot clock during thattimeout.
If the Cats get a betterlook at the basket out of thatbreak in play, and connecton the front-end of some 1-and-1 free throw attempts,the 16-0 Ole Miss run be-comes more of a 12-6 “run”and the Rebels never getback in to contention.
Freshman forward Ner-lens Noel was the saviorTuesday, however, erasingshot after Ole Miss shotdown the stretch despitehaving four personal fouls,setting a UK record for mostblocked shots in a game (12)and salvaging the Cats’ sig-nature road win.
Saturday evening in Col-
lege Station, Texas, the Catsled Texas A&M by nine atthe half and had a chance toemphatically exact revengefor the upset home loss ear-lier this season when theAggies’ Elston Turner Jr.dropped 40 against them atRupp Arena.
Although the Cats nevertrailed, they also never ex-tended the lead to put theAggies out of their misery,allowing them to stay withinstriking distance the entiresecond half.
The Cats turned the ballover six times in the final2:07 of regulation to give theAggies a chance to get all theway back in the game.
“That’s where we areright now,” Calipari saidabout the turnovers. “Theyweren’t pressing. We werejust throwing it away. Wehave a ways to go. Everyexperience for this team isto learn and move on.”
When Turner made amid-range jumper with onesecond remaining in regula-tion, it sealed a Aggie 10-2run and sent the game intoovertime.
“Every game is a dog-fight. The biggest thing isthat when teams make a runat us, we just don’t have a
swagger about us,” Caliparisaid. “As a matter of fact,we almost look defeated.”
The Cats executed de-fensively in overtime andmade enough free throws tocome away with the win.Turner scored 21 against theCats defenders (primarilyGoodwin and Julius Mays),but he worked hard for it,going 7-of-23 from the fieldand 1-of-7 behind the arc.
“We just played four orfive on the road with thisteam. We survived and wesurvived without Willie(Cauley-Stein) playingmuch,” Calipari said. “Wemade many plays down to-ward the end that were in-credible. Julius did a greatjob on Turner.”
The Cats failed to pul-verize two road opponents,but they did pick up twomuch-needed victories. OleMiss began the week at No.16 in both polls, beforedropping games to UK andFlorida, giving the Cats theirfirst win against a rankedopponent this year.
Next up for the Cats arehome contests against SouthCarolina and Auburn, teamsthat have a combined 4-12record in the SEC.
Is it whomping time now?

“I’m proud of what wedid tonight,” Harrison said.“We had mistakes that werenot usual for us. It’s rare tosee those happen. But it givesus hope for the future.”
The Cats are still averag-ing more than 195 points butare continually looking to im-prove.
“I know we have it in usright now, today. I just thinkwe let our heads get in theway,” Harrison said.

kernel editorial
The first step is admitting there is a problem.Then after much consideration of opinions on campus as well as off, hearing all
sides of the issue and figuring out the best course of action, UK will be ready tomake a change in its alcohol policy.
Or not.But at least officials, most notably President Eli Capilouto, have started the con-
versation.Dialogue on such topics is not always easy to start, or easy to perpetuate. Many
feel strongly about the issue — whether alcohol should be allowed on UK’s campus,outside of a handful of exceptions that exist already — because it affects the waythey live.
Take exhibit A: the students. While many living on campus are under 21, someare of the legal age to consume alcohol. Restricting them from doing a legal act intheir homes is a hard policy to argue, especially when they could drink in an off-campus apartment.
But would a policy change unintentionally lift the restrictions for minors on cam-pus as well? Would it endanger their safety or send a message that drinking underageis OK?
“Let’s face it, students are going to drink,” 3rd District Councilwoman DianeLawless said in Thursday’s Kernel article about UK revisiting its policy.
Whether that drinking occurs on campus or a few steps away in surroundingneighborhoods might not make much of a difference to UK’s students.
But it could affect exhibit B: the community surrounding UK. Officials said theimpact drinking has on areas off campus has been a concern expressed in recent con-versations, especially as UK updates its master plan. Some residents think that UK’s“dry” status pushes student drinking — and problems associated with it — intoneighborhoods.
The discussion over this policy, which has been in place since 1988, likely won’tbe simple, and it will involve more than the aforementioned groups. But alcohol oncampus is an issue that affects UK’s students directly and that many of them careabout.
So as the conversation continues, UK needs to reach out to its students especiallyto get input for its decision.
No harm in lettingideas flow aboutalcohol on campus
