February 12, 200719 yr Kentucky is a 4 seed. It lists the SEC as having 7 bids but I only counted 6 teams in the bracket http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/bracketology
February 12, 200719 yr I think they forgot to edit. How about that 5/11 and 6/12 matchup? I doubt Virginia and Georgia Tech will play in the opening game.
February 12, 200719 yr The book on UK: Kentucky I'm not dropping the 'Cats for a loss to the nation's juggernaut. This can still be a Sweet 16 team. Why seeded here? UK is still a very healthy 12-6 vs. InsideRPI Top 100 competition. May change because: UK still needs that "can you believe it?" win. Good Wins RPI 1-25: Indiana, Tennessee RPI 26-50: @Arkansas Bad Losses RPI 101-200: None RPI 201+: None UK currently is the #3 Four Seed, ahead of only Georgetown in that respect. A win over Florida would have been HUUUUGE. Would've put UK 3-3 vs. RPI Top 25 teams, and might have even boosted them to a 3 seed in the projections.
February 12, 200719 yr This one just for RP. I'm kinda with you on the whole Duke/Bubble situation, but from the horse's mouth: Duke There's not enough room here to cover the evolving Duke situation. Suffice it to say the Blue Devils are drifting dangerously close to the bubble. Why seeded here? That's four straight losses (and counting) for Coach K & Co. May change because: And the schedule gets harder, if you can believe that. Good Wins RPI 1-25: N-Air Force, Indiana, Clemson RPI 26-50: Georgetown, Boston College Bad Losses RPI 101-200: None RPI 201+: None
February 12, 200719 yr Good to see Virginia wasn't punished for that brutal loss against Virginia Tech. The Cavaliers winning streak was going to come to an end and they were going up against a Tech team that looked awful in their previous game. I like the matchup with Xavier and then possibly Butler in the 2nd round.

February 12, 200719 yr :scared: :confused: , the real :scared: should be that the ACC has nine teams...I am not afraid for UK to face any ACC team except for the Tar Heels...what a joke of nine teams...:scared:
February 13, 200719 yr How about a possible Duke/Florida matchup in the 2nd round? Duke would be going home first weekend, for the first time in a decade

February 13, 200719 yr UK won't get a 4 seed... Probably not...their closing stretch plus the SEC Tourney will be brutal.
