Kentucky vs. Santa Clara

[SLINK]

With the U of L game over, time to move on to the next game. UK can't be too giddy with the Broncos coming to Rupp at 7-3. Kentucky will play fairly well, IMHO, and win 77-60.

"HOLY NAME"... who the heck is that?

[ladiesbballcoach]

UK could go on a nice run here.

 

Won 3 in a row presently.

 

Santa Clara

UMASS

EKU

Houston

Ole MIss

Auburn

Miss State

South Carolina

Vandy

 

Only Ole Miss and Vandy is away.

 

Till the at Georgia then Tennessee game.

 

That would be a 12-game winning streak and put their record at 16-3 and probably somewhere in the top 25.

Beware of UMASS. Do not overlook them.

Don't know much about the Broncos, other than Kurt Rambis played there but in visiting their website, looks like they don't score a lot or allow many points, so I would presume game in the 60's or low 70's.

 

Sean Denison - 11.2ppg

Danny Pariseau - 10.5ppg

John Bryant - 6±rpg

 

Style of play, seems to be in UK's favor and shooting from the perimeter, will need to be much better.

 

UK - 69

Santa Clara - 60

A UMass win wouldn't surprise me, neither would a Vandy or SC win.

 

The Cats need to dominate some of these teams to get their confidence and their ranking higher, while developing some more depth.

Don't forget Steve Nash and that great upset of Arizona (with former UK player Chris Mills)

[BaseballIsLife]

I think Santa Clara will pull off the upset here:cry:

 

Santa Clara 72

Kentucky should beat Santa Clara. The thing I'm worried about is that it wouldn't suprise me if Travis Ford has been preparing for an upset for a month now. Especially with Tubby leaving/fired talk! Do you know what people would be saying if UK loses to UMASS!

[SuperB]

Santa Clara beat North Carolina in the Tarheels championship season a couple of years ago. I think it was the first or second game of the season.

Yes... In the game Felton was suspended..

[Augger]

I dont know if this UK team is capable of running off 12 straight. But I dont see any problem with Santa Clara.

 

UK by 15+

Probably the same thing we here after every loss. Blah, blah, blah......
