Don't wanna see NC State early and Duke late.

 

"No way a Mark Gottfried coached team beats Kentucky in the tournament"

I'd take Nova and Zona as the two teams with the best chance to pull the upset. As MTGL pointed out, they both do things that could limit how UK dominates games and that would make things close. Both are well coached and have quality skill and talent across the board with guys that can hurt in the paint and on the perimeter, plus both have a toughness I think the likes of Duke and Wisky lack...

I am with you Villanova GT. That is who I have been saying watch out for. I haven't seen enough of Arizona to know about them.

I don't watch Zona but they strike me as a much better or legit Memphis team l.

I am probably in the minority here but I feel that UK could get beat. Reason I think this is because they turn it on when needed and off when they feel like cruising, defensively and offensively. This could bite them in the butt against a tough NCAA tourney team. I'll agree they have been able to do what I posted all year with much success in the regular season, however the NCAA Tournament is a different animal altogether.

 

Good points, however I don't see that type of play happening in the tournament. That is the one thing college players look forward to the most since they have to come to college. The effort in the tournament will be perfectly fine the whole time.

Truly think Arizona is the scariest of all the teams to upset the Cats. Tough, physical, and long at most positions. BUT, then again they have Sean Miller as a coach...so...nevermind...

Coach Cal scares me the most....not being able to coach during crucial situations that they for sure will run into....

No one team stands out but imo Duke, Wisconsin, Arizona would be the main challenger. I don't believe that Duke has a strong bench / depth, that ma hurt them. Arizona is Huge, talented. Wisconsin's big man is excellent and Bo Ryan can just flat out coach.

Should Anyone Beat U.K. then imo it is one of those three. Another very dangerous team imo would be Vilinova, they are very, very good and don't count them out.

 

Should the F4 Be U.K., Zona, Nova then we have three Wildcats pus one. I will pick the Wildcats. :thumb:

Kentucky would beat Wisconsin 8-12 points, if not more. I would prefer them be the No. 2 in UK's bracket. I would be ecstatic with Wisconsin or Gonzaga either one.

Wisconsin is the team that I am most worried about. The way they control the tempo of the game could give Kentucky the most issues. Kentucky does struggle from time to time with their half court offense. Kaminsky can also help stretch the defense out with his shooting ability.

Definitely agree that wisconsin is the most dangerous team on this list. I think they are the best team on this list that can win the national championship! If UK has to play them....look out for a great game!

I think that to beat Kentucky, you need a good physical heart, and a lot of spiritual heart. The Cats have too much depth, so you can't tire them out, you need to be in good enough shape to stay with them. Also, you need to play on emotions, you got to want to beat them with all you got.
