No Bama-Creighton talk?

I have IU over UK also.
Sure, I could have stayed in the past. I could have even been king. But in my own way, I am king.

I was toying with IU over UK, but I wanted the glory of having picked UNC to beat UK in the Sweet 16, which we will if we meet...

THAT would not happen if they met
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.

Strange that you should post this.... I'm reading your post with my AARP T-Shirt on right now that I bought at a used clothing store last year. I bought it to wear when I play Monday Night Volleyball at our local community center.... mainly with guys younger than me.. figured it would get a big chuckle and maybe they'd take it a bit easy on this old geezer. You must have ESP(N) bud... :D

Indiana is more motivated to play this game than Kentucky.... Can't see UK winning this one.

Apparently not since LSU didn't make him go to class. At least UNC would have required some work to be done.

Are there flood waters coming soon????????

I have not seen Kentucky fan sandbag so much in my life.

IU will have to WIN their game first in order to get the chance at UK who has beaten down fools and gave Kansas all they could handle.

UK is my sleeper pick if you can call them that in one bracket i am getting in on that has around 1k payout.
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.

The SEC tournament was a home game for UK

From the Kawhi Leonard profile:

"He is happy to sponsor Wingstop, which sends him coupons for free wings, so he can feed his Mango Habanero addiction. This winter, after his $94 million contract kicked in, he panicked when he lost his coupons. Wingstop generously replenished his supply."

Replenished...

I'd like to think if I had $94m I'd be the same way

yo man, Adidas wants to talk to you

do they sell wings?

I don't know much about Indiana (or Kentucky, for that matter), so I don't know who would be the better matchup for us. Wins/losses are about the same for all three, although UNC doesn't have any really bad losses (six losses by a combined 22 points), while UK has three double digit losses and IU has two. Seems like UK has the big men to compete with ours, although this year it seems like it's their guard play that's carrying them. I'd much rather lose to IU than UK, but I feel pretty good about our chances in either case. Of course that's assuming somebody (including us) doesn't lose in an earlier round...
