    Kentucky or UNC

    Kentucky seems very tempting at -6.

    Neither, UNC is good enough to win this game by 5+ and UK is good enough to win and cover. UK is really really young and could easily fold up under pressure. Better games on the board today like Miami over UMASS

    Unc is the most overrated team in the country by a good amount. They have two guys who can score in Barnes and Zeller and everyone else picks up garbage points.

    I'm in on Kentucky but frankly over 153 is the big play.

    UNC is not the MOST overrated. Duke is the most overrated by far.

    Fair enough...that's true.

    But going into the season everyone had unc as the best team. Theyre not any different than last year and they weren't great last year. Why were they consensus #1?

    I honestly cant answer that, I could see how they would be consensus 2 or 3, but Ohio State is clearly the best team in the country in my opinion. I think it just boils down to Harrison Barnes being considered one of the(if not THE) best players in College, and the people surrounding him. All of North Carolinas role players are inconsistent, with the exception of Kendall Marshall, hes good for atleast 10 dimes a game on a bad night. They have the pieces, they just dont mesh right, or atleast thats what Im seeing.

    Calipari is such a terrible coach. Every other time they play a big game his coaching deficiencies are exposed. Kentucky should be absolutely dominating.

    Doesn't make his players box out (look at Jones, a player in his second year on Cals team) doesn't have his dudes set up sets after big offensive rebounds. That last exchange was a perfect example. You get 3 or 4 offensive rebounds and the dude just drives in where, literally, every player on Carolina is around the key and expects something good to happen. Reset the offense and run something with a decent chance of working.

    Kentucky should be dominating . Some of these posts are hilarious. You are talking two evenly matched teams here. Carolina has as much or more talent then Kentucky. But of course youth is on Kentucky's side. Good game so far sure the second half will be a good one.

    if thats how you honestly feel why didnt you take UNC ML? If you think its a 50/50 game and your getting 2.5/1 on your money how could you not love UNC ML? I dont understand people

    Carolina has as much or more talent than Kentucky
    You can't seriously believe that.
    Individual talent statistics, Offensive rebounds and turnovers. Players that are crazy talented at basketball get offensive rebounds and turn the ball over very little. Kentucky has more offensive rebounds and less turnovers.

    Kentucky is going to win this game if they box out and Carolina cools down a little from the 3 range.

    Perimeter defense is non existant, NC shooting damn near 70% from 3, only reason they are up imho.

    only reason they are up . You clowns don't know buckin much about basketball huh. Ask the majority of people that do know the game. They will tell you Carolina and Kentucky are pretty much even in talent. Elite 8 last year with everyone returning. Plus you add in a healthy Bullock and Hairiston and Mcaddoo. You Kentucky homers stuck on stupid or what?
