Do you have beer muscles?
Apparently Kentucky coach John Calipari thought Texas A&M standout Elston Turner had those beer muscles last month when he scored 40 points in a win at Rupp Arena.
So how will UK stop Turner Saturday night?
“We could have done some different things. We could have trapped him and made somebody else beat you, but we had the wrong guy on him. So you have the wrong guy on him, the kid gets going and now the kid’s got beer muscles and all of the sudden he’s making every shot,” Calipari said.
What exactly are Beer muscles?
“Mean you’re a weakling but you get beers in you and you want to beat somebody’s brains in that’s a monster. That’s called beer muscles,” Calipari said.
Lexington Herald-Leader beat writer Jerry Tipton told Calipari he had “white wine muscles.”
Calipari countered: “I grew up in Pittsburgh, it was Iron City beer and a shot.”

I have to say that I’m enjoying Cal’s press conferences a little bit more each and every day. I check around on the internet to find the footage of his before-game press conferences each week, knowing that I will be totally entertained. His off-topic detour on “we are men!” was one of the funniest things I have seen. And his expression when he finally finished was absolutely priceless.
So, does Tipton have Zuma muscles?
Tip is just flat-out cut period
Don’t give Tex-a&m any chalkboard ammo. I think Cal has it figured out this time
If this guy destroys us again, I will start to think that this team is truly cursed. I don’t think any player has gone full on “beer muscles” twice against a Cal team (while he has been at UK). It just seems that there is always one player who has a career day against UK. It just proves Cal’s whole “Superbowl” theory.
And Tipton is still a total d-bag. No matter how funny he tries to be.
I am confident they will do a good job against Turner. They just need to guard against letting any other player for A & M go off.
