Even the national media agrees:

Despite John Calipari's whining, Kentucky has historically easy path to Final Four

our leading scorer will play in 2-3 minute spots according to weber.

with this tournament so far, you can't count on any favorites.

Hell, look at Kansas, they are a #1 seed and survived the first weekend.

That true, but this is from that article I posted yesterday:

"The team that eliminates Kentucky likely won’t be Kansas State, which has the No. 75 offense in the nation per Pomeroy — that’s the 15th-most efficient of the 16 remaining teams in the tournament. K-State has been without its best player, injured Dean Wade, though he may be back Thursday night.

And the team that eliminates Kentucky doesn’t figure to be Nevada, which at No. 109 has by far the worst defensive ranking in the Sweet 16. The Wolf Pack has come back from major deficits each of its first two NCAA tourney games, and that’s a risky way to keep advancing.

Loyola might be the longest shot of all, in terms of seeding (11th), conference affiliation (Missouri Valley) and stature (Kentucky is fourth nationally in average height, per Pomeroy, while the Ramblers are 225th)."

Minstrelsy style!

If Kentucky was a 2 seed like they probably should have been given UNC was a 10 loss team as well, no one would be talking about them playing a higher seeded team. The discussion would be solely focused on Virgina tanking.

I guess I'm going with UK and Nevada from this point on. UK because they are a sorta Cincy team not being so far and this city is full of alumni and Nevada because they knocked Cincy out. I know I just jinxed them both but whatever. My bracket is toast anyway. That region is a mess.

Michigan is doing to TAMU what TAMU did to us last weekend. Hey aTm, sucks when the other team can't miss a shot, isn't it? And your team can't seem to hit one? Don't worry, I already know the answer...

He knew this was coming. I don't even think he enjoyed the win over Carolina because he was aware of the eventuality that comes with being Aggie

This game looks different because Belein knows whats hes doing and actually implement a plan to beat A&M and isnt an arrogant spectator with no answers on the bench like Roy was. Yeah there are 15+ extra points in there because UM is unconscious shooting, but Michigan clearly knew what they were up against and had almost a full week to be ready.

hedge · Post by **hedge** » Thu Mar 22, 2018 9:25 pm

He's not an arrogant spectator with no post players, either. 15+ extra points b/c TAMU was unconscious (well, close) didn't help either...

Roy worked with what he had this year. Guys had an off night at the wrong time, it's happened plenty of times to Duke, too, I don't think that makes Ratface an arrogant spectator (well, arrogant maybe, but not in the way you're implying). Anyway, I'll take Roy over anybody TAMU has ever had or is likely to have. 3 national titles, numerous FF's, come talk to me when TAMU makes the FF one time. Does't look like it'll be this year...

hedge · Post by **hedge** » Thu Mar 22, 2018 9:34 pm

Hilarious that you imply Roy doesn't know what he doing after he just went to two national championship games, won one of them and almost won both with no lottery picks and only 3 first round (barely, in the case of two of them) picks in the whole bunch. Yeah, that's more than a lot of teams have, but hardly the recipe that most championship teams have followed since I can remember...

Go Kansas State!

eCat · Post by **eCat** » Thu Mar 22, 2018 11:28 pm

it would appear that technical was the turning point to doing us in

Kansas St ain't skeered, playing like they are on a mission

One down, one to go

eCat · Post by **eCat** » Fri Mar 23, 2018 12:11 am

that was ugly

Saint · Post by **Saint** » Fri Mar 23, 2018 12:12 am

That's the first time I've seen Kentucky play this year. They aren't or weren't very good. Are any of those guys going to stay in school?
