November 21, 20169 yr Kentucky Wildcats take over No. 1 spot in Associated Press men's basketball Top 25
November 22, 20169 yr Indiana is on top in college basketball power rankings on ESPN. Kentucky #2 on it.
November 22, 20169 yr I was hoping they would stay down a while...not that it matters one way or another.
November 22, 20169 yr Means ABSOLUTELY nothing. The only #1 ranking that counts for me is the one after the NCAA tournament.
November 22, 20169 yr Means ABSOLUTELY nothing. The only #1 ranking that counts for me is the one after the NCAA tournament. It'll mean something going into the NCAA seedings. You want to be a #1 or #2 vs a #3 or #4 IMO.
November 22, 20169 yr And if memory serves the Cats were number one about this time last year. Correct.
November 22, 20169 yr I think there's 6 or 7 teams with a good chance to win the NCAA title and after that group there's a drop off. UK, Duke, Villanova , Indiana, Kansas, UCLA, and UNC. I haven't seen Louisville to make a judgement on them. Xavier is a solid team but I don't think they can make it through the 6 games it takes to win it all. I also don't think Duke is as great as all the media let's on even when they get their whole team back. It's not like they won't have stiff competition , unlike the super dominant UCLA teams of the '60s. The UK-UCLA game should be interesting . I saw them play someone a few nights ago and they looked loaded to me. the Ball kid is extremely good. They've got depth at guard and plenty of front court size. UK will have to be clicking to beat them, and it will help that the game is at Rupp. Edited November 22, 20169 yr by The Professor
November 22, 20169 yr It'll mean something going into the NCAA seedings. You want to be a #1 or #2 vs a #3 or #4 IMO. You're correct maysville. What I should have posted was it means absolutely nothing this early until around NCAA tourney time.
November 22, 20169 yr Louisville definitely is not in that top group. Neither is Xavier. Xavier is VERY GOOD, but not top 8 good, in my opinion.
November 26, 20169 yr Over 1 Millon shirts have already been sold. Duke had better not count their chickens before they hatch. I'd hold back on those shirts. :popcorn::idunno:

November 26, 20169 yr What? :lol2: Just kidding with ya a little. You referred to a million shirts already been sold (I assume championship shirts by UK people) and I was acting naive by reversing it to Duke.
