Due to the fact that Paul still recovering from surgery, the Thunder claimed a 98-83 home victory while David West scored 33 points considering that no other Hornets player had more than 11 points.

"We've got to execute better on offense and push the tempo. That's my fault," Paul stated. "I pushed it in the first half and I guess I didn't in the second half and they were able to get their defense set. I've got to pick up the pace."

The Thunder reunited from an 8 point halftime, but Kevin Durant missed a short jumper just before the buzzer. "We battled back and no one on our team gave up and we had a shot to win,'' stated Scott Brooks, the coach "Kevin's shot was on line but just a little short.

While performing the star was in wonderful spirits, outstanding guitar god poses for his solos and breaking into the dance workouts. Begging from "Baby I'm a Star" and up to "Kiss," the 52-years-old star "re-explored his vintage catalogue as if playing the songs for the first time."

The Kentucky Wildcats' season was very interesting because of several reasons: from the one hand, it included beating SEC-West Champ South Carolina and from the other - a 2-6 SEC record, but their decision kept solid due to their top score passing offense headed by the duo of quarterback Mike Hartline and all-around player Randall Cobb. Mike Hartline threw for over 3,000 yards and 23 touchdowns, and Randall Cobb being a supposed wide receiver, ran and caught twelve touchdowns and ranked second in the country with 2,192 all-purpose yards.

An opposed to Kentucky Wildcats the Pittsburgh Panthers’ season was a bit disappointing: running back Dion Lewis rushed for 956 yards and 12 scores while wide receiver Joe Baldwin's 15.6 average yards a catch have him included loudly in the list of players led to the NFL draft the current year (together with Kentucky's Cobb).

The team of Ohio State had a good year in the Big 10, considering their only loss to Wisconsin during the regular season.
