Interesting that the portal opens today and not later in tournament schedule. With that being the case, I am surprised there aren't more teams opting out of the NIT.

The 3 teams that were not in the top 6 - who were they and what were they in KenPom?

UK Final Four? What team have you all been watching this year? There are four teams in UK's bracket that are ahead of them in the net rankings, including Houston, who is number one in the net rankings. And you guys think this is an easy bracket and an easy path to the final four? If UK doesn't make the Sweet 16, go at Cal and this team with both barrels blasting. But anyone thinking this defensively pathetic team should walk to the elite 8 or final 4 has me bewildered.

I am hoping for a 4 seed for UK. -

Texas AM believed from the jump. They already beat UK once. Now twice. Are they inferior? Seriously. If I am Texas AM I have no doubt I beat UK if we meet in the tournament. Bad matchup for UK. -

Nothing snowballed. The game was played in a close range all night. I do agree on the starting lineup getting behind being an obstacle. The problem last night was no lineup was able to outplay Texas AM. -

And both were in the floor almost all of the last 12 minutes. UK down 4 and they didn't get it done. How many times did Sheppard get beat on drives to the basket? He MUST get better in man defense and stop getting beat on drives to the hoop. Dillingham was better than Sheppard on defense last night. But Dillingham had 7 turnovers. Half the team's turnovers were by Dillingham. I am not sure UK can go with Dillingham and Sheppard on the floor together in the last 8 minutes of a close game. -

This is true and tells the story. For all the defensive shortcomings, this was an even game except turnovers. Just make the simple plays. UK lost turnover stat 14-5. It was 5-8 plays in the game that made the difference. UK did not have the level of defensive intensity needed to win that game. Same problem as all year, too soft. Every game needs to be a brawl. In every game I want to see the defensive intensity UK showed when they beat Auburn Go to battle men and the talent will get you the win. -
What did Coach K's last 7 years look like? One final four. Lost 8 or 9 games a year most of those seasons. My take on this is the model doesn't win titles. Duke and UK are in the same boat. With NIL and the transfer rules, experience is winning over the most talent. If half or more your rotation are freshmen, only a lot of luck will win a title. UK will test that this year if they keep playing how they are and better. But my thought now it is the one and done model that is the issue.

I like it. I believe he is the DT for Houston that dominated Alex Cappa last year. He put Cappa on skates and pushed him into Burrow's lap multiple times in that game. -
Probably gets them to first 4 out level. I think they have to win the tournament to get in.
