Elite 8: Kentucky vs. UNC predictions 3/27

[UKYBBALL]

What do you all think about the rematch?

[CatsCatsCats]

Tough matchup for UK. I do like the possibility of having Liggins and Lamb guard Barnes. Henson could be tough as will UNC's depth. But if UK plays smart, plays hard, with no injuries/major foul trouble they should have a shot. A shot is all you can ask for IMO.

Cats fall one game short of the Final Four yet again.

I feel much better now.

[Lucky Charms]

I think both teams matchup REALLY SCARY well aside from JORTS. If JORTS can stay out of foul trouble and rebound UK is in good shape. T.Jones is going to be a HUGE, HUGE player in this game IMO. These guys want this more than anything. Its a driver now! Go CATS!

Put me on the homer wagon... 'Cats win this one and make it to their first Final Four since '98.

North Carolina isn't that great. Problem is calming down and getting back to business after big win.

That's my biggest fear.

Agree. This is part of the coaches job. Believe Cal will have them ready.

Yes. Plus, I think Carolina is playing as good (and maybe better) than anyone. Zeller & Henson will give us fits--perhaps negating the penetration baskets. Picking the Heels & hoping I'm wrong.

I agree with you and what the other guys said. Hopefully he can calm us all down by then too!

They certainly did tonight, but they have struggled dating back to the beginning of the ACC tournament.

[Blue Magic]

I hope not but I think they'll still be fired up from this win and won't be as focused. Coming out flat will be detrimental. UNC by 8.
