Kentucky Can Blame Obama

South Carolina fans swarm the court to celebrate the Gamecocks victory over Kentucky and first win ever over a top ranked team.

The Wildcats received a phone call on Tuesday from Barack Obama to congratulate them for their fundraising efforts toward relief in Haiti.
When the conversation swerved to that night's game and Obama was told that the opponent was South Carolina, the president replied, "You should be all right."

Motivation for South Carolina to upset top ranked Kentucky?

30 point scorer Devan Downey: "I'm scared to say anything. That's the president.
Somebody might be knocking on my door in the morning."

"Giddy fans came up to South Carolina athletic director Eric Hyman, handing him dollar bills to pay the anticipated fine the SEC levies for swarming the court."
