SEC officials should not be allowed to officiate ANY NCAA tourney games.... Absolutely pathetic bunch.

If UK runs the table and wins it all they have to be considered as the best team ever.

I know its tradition to sand bag - and UK has alot going for it in this run

1. The sites will be Louisville, Cleveland and Indianapolis which will fill up with Cat fans easily
2. The players raise their game when the competition is better so I expect them to play better
3. Experience - 3 starters on a title game last year along with 3 bench players

that said, I'm scared this team will think they can come from 10 points down against a team like Duke, not be able to get the stops they have had easily all year long against inferior competition and then panic - you'll know they're in panic mode when the Harrison's start forcing shots trying to get fouled.

The only team that can beat them has a couple of guards that can light it up from three and some guys that grab defensive rebounds. I don't know who they are, but that's the field's only hope.

My alma mater drew Notre Dame in the first round. Kentucky's bracket looks brutal.

UK fans -- Will Arkansas put us out of our misery in the round of 32? Or will my Heels tease the fanbase into believing again, only to collapse vs. Wisconsin in the round of 16?

That would be an amazing accomplishment and Calipari would deserve all the kudos coming his way. But best of all time? The UK fans I work with don't even think they'd beat the 2012 Kentucky squad. And Rat, don't get caught up in the hype of what happened most recently is the best thing ever, man. We grew up in the greatest era of college basketball. Several teams in the 1980's would've run the table this season.

Again, not taking ANYTHING away from Kentucky. I think they will finish 40-0 and perfection cannot be topped, no matter who your competition was at that time.

Tark's UNLV squad with LJ, Augmon, Moses Scurry and Greg Anthony are the absolute best in history. I'm only saying that because I never saw those Indiana teams in the 70s. It's hard to get that claim in a "one and done" environment.

TAK-unc is better at pg and match up well with portis on the blocks. The wing with qualls may be arkys only advantage. I believe unc plays wisky

I agree with UNLV and would have to say the UNC squad of 82 is close.

If Phi Slamma had a half decent coach...

The best team of all time IMO is the UCLA Alcindor/Wilkes team.

She doesn't seem too thrilled with the smooch..... Doubt if I would either.
