UK has not been good on the road this year (3-7). That's mental (and SEC officiating).

The tournament should be fun as long as UNC, Duke or Michigan St doesn't win it all
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

If Bama can at least split the two remaining games (Uga and Arkie), and win one or two in the SECT, we should be in with our RPI, and wins vs top 50.

I hope, anyway. Would be a great achievement for Avery considering we were picked to finish last (or close to it) in the SEC. We are Retin Obasohan and the 7 dwarfs.

Duke can't win it this year. They aren't good and their win over UNC was one of our worst losses to them ever. Had no business losing that game, plus the ramifications it has/could have. Good news is, if we win the next two, we win the ACC. I like the fact that Duke is one of those games. We need to beat them and beat them bad in Cameron. If we lose that game, we should just refuse a tourny bid...

Duke losing by 20+ to a decent but not great Pitt right now. If we don't beat them next weekend, we need to be sent home and whipped...

Well at least IU has a share of the Big 10-4 title with a chance to win it out right with wins against Iowa or Maryland.

Neat.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

They'll give clappy a 10 year extension with a 20m dollar buyout

Best game of the season, by a mile.

People still want hick over Meeks including ROy and he just needs to watch the tape watch the team on O with Meeks in the game in the 2nd half and watch the D.

As soon as Meeks comes out the ball movement stalls and then they gave up 5 offensive rebounds with both Hicks and Johnson not being in the right position to rebound.

Roy as to see the tema is better when Meeks is in the game he aslos the best post defender, Plumlee did nothing against Meeks but dominated Hicks

Hate to be this late in the season with a "we'll find out something about this team after this game", but that's what the Duke game is going to be this weekend. Playing for the ACC championship at Duke, last game of the season, just win the game and we're ACC regular season champs. Pretty simple, and we should beat them by double digits. We'll see...

I'm actually surprised they got fined, that was about the most orderly "storming" of the court I've ever seen...

I didnt get why they would storm the court after that game anyway. Do they view Kentucky as that big of a rival?
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

I don't understand it. Certainly this isn't a Kentucky team that is all that much of a challenge
