Exactly, Everyone is acting like they are not beatable...There a NINE SEED, this team can lose on any given night...

It's not really about their strength as a team for me, but more about the match up problems they present. They are good at what UK has problems with, and that's not the recipe you want to see when the teams are announced...

The Cats get helped, but hurt by being an 8 seed. They would've been much better off as a 10/11 seed, IMO.

Reynolds and Sumpter are a nightmare for UK....I'm not looking forward to this one at all.

I don't think we will make it past the 2nd round but if we do I think we can make the Final Four. We would play SIU or VT in the Sweet 16 I know we would beat them then UCLA in the Elite 8 we owe them after Maui. We get past Kansas in the 2nd round we will go to the Final Four.

Let's show our boys in blue some faith on here-- If they play together they can make it to the sweet sixteen-- Now I know this is so small feat, but I think it can be done

Meeks goes coast to coast and dunks it to SEAL the game.

 

UK-81

Nova-76

Exactly what I didn't want...

:thumb: I agree, I personally would rather had a 10 or maybe even 11. Imo we didn't deserve a higher seed than possibly a 7, but not really that.

UK can only point the finger at themselves. Finish against Vandy, Georgia, and Mississippi State and they are looking at a #5 or #6.

:thumb: Correct, we cannot complain. This may be a first. I actually wish that we would have had a lower seed.

No doubt about it. Cunningham is active enough to at least slow down Morris a little, and Nova does a good job closing on shooters. Reynolds has been on fire and Sumpter can score from anywhere on the floor. They better bring their A+ game for this one...

I will come up with my point spread/score later but you can Mark This Down: The Wildcats Will Win this game! :sssh:

Nova' is not "unbeatable" but I agree will be a very tough matchup for U.K.

The Sumpter injury last year coming back to bite the Cats.... thats basketball.

 

Still scares me we got an 8 seed with Morris leading the way, whats gonna happen when hes gone.

The flight leaving Lexington is at 9am (ET) and will arrive in Chicago at 8:55am (CT). Several players tell Tubby they aren't getting on a time machine and refuse to board, resulting in a forfeit.

 

 

 

 

 

From an old Bob Costas story...

 

Sorry, but the flight is over an hour.

I think Kentucky is too tough for Villanova, but I don't think they can knock Kansas out. I do think they will be in pretty decent shape if they can get by Kansas.

Where will the first 2 games be played at for the Cats?
