March 5, 201412 yr They're probably going to be about a 6 seed, and that means a tough first round matchup. In most years there's always upsets with the 5 vs 12 and 6 vs 11. They've struggled the last 2 games with teams that's only won around 10 or 11 games this year. One of the unknowns may nail them in the 1st round of the Big Show. No efficient guard play in the NCAA tourney = Early Exit. I agree, was thinking more like a 7/8 seed unless they Win the SEC tourney but am not looking for that to happen. Funny, ironic thing is that if they play like they're capable of playing, up to their potential this team could win it. I don't think that's going to happen though. I do hope that we are playing on Sunday in the SEC final but who knows ?
March 5, 201412 yr If Cats can manage to hit a few more threes the lanes will open right up. A lack of 3 point shooting kills the offense. It always needs that threat. Agreed, that's the point I was making in my earlier post, I think that they need to run some stuff to set up an open shooter.
March 5, 201412 yr Agreed, that's the point I was making in my earlier post, I think that they need to run some stuff to set up an open shooter. When James hit his one 3 they did just that. They passed it to Young he passed it to Polson(I think) he drew the defenders over and gave it right back and bam!
March 5, 201412 yr BTW.,,,,,, Congrats and THANK YOU to John Hood and Gerald Polson :ylsuper::ylsuper: !! Two Great Young men that grew up Dreaming of being A WILDCAT and Made that Dream Happen !!!
March 5, 201412 yr If Cats can manage to hit a few more threes the lanes will open right up. A lack of 3 point shooting kills the offense. It always needs that threat. And they're getting wide open looks for the most part because most teams are packing the lane with zones. They just flat out can't hit an open 3. This team's like reliving the shooting woes of the 2010 West Virginia game over and over.

March 5, 201412 yr That was an awful game!!! I hate to see Releford have to put up with this his senior year. The Cats did a good job of shutting him down in the 2nd half. Engstrom actually scored (to go along with his 40 screens) and Randolph didn't show up as expected on "Super Tuesday". I can't understand why Bama didn't extend the game down 7 with 1:40 to go in the game. It is time to move on and get rid of Grant... Edited March 5, 201412 yr by KY Thorobred

Grant is a good coach and Babma is lucky to have him. Babma is a hard place to recruit.

Video: John Calipari Postgame Press Conference | Kentucky Wildcats Basketball | Nation of Blue | The Home to UK Fans Worldwide Loved his jokes and comments. Knew he was having hip problems. Looks like he is going to have to have another hip replacement.
March 5, 201412 yr I think the Cats force it to much and expect to get bailed out by the officials, and I'm really not referring to Randle. The Twins and James Young try to drive it into defenders to often, get some contact, and expect the call. Officials aren't going to reward you for that type of play. Glad they got the win.

It has gotten sad and predictable. This goes back to a lot of the discussion we've had about these guys not understanding or having a good feel for the game. For the bulk of the season UK has actually been efficient offensively, but they have no confidence at all now.
