    Who beats Kentucky?
    Florida has the best shot in the SEC IMO and here's why. UK hasn't faced ONE team that ranks in the top 50-60 in defensive rebounding percentage. Florida was the best team they faced and should have been beaten in Gainesville. Just a tip when your filling out your bracket/betting your money. Arkansas is the second best team in the SEC apparently, but they rank near the bottom of the NCAA in defensive rebounding percentage, obviously they were beat up and demolished by these man kids at UK. Even Texas, Kansas, Louisville, UNC weren't any good on the defensive glass this year by the numbers

              too many close calls against average teams for UK to go undefeated IMO.

                      The only team with any shot would be Wisconsin, but if they played NBA style best of seven Kentucky would win in 5 games

                          Nah... I'd say maybe 3 teams have a shot once that tourney starts... But in all honesty, I think Kentucky runs the table.

                            So Ole Miss wouldn't have a shot after taking them to OT? Texas A&M after taking them to 2OT? LSU after losing by only 2? Georgia after controlling them for 30+ minutes? Florida for doing the same?

                              Why did you skip over the ranked teams that they stomped out by 30+? The UCLA team they held to 7pts in the first half? The TRUE 2ND team in the SEC (not Florida like you called to win today) who they absolutely demolished, Arkansas? Once those brackets are filled out, Id say Virginia and Duke scare me... Other than that, I think its gonna be the Big Blue show...

                                Arkansas matches up terribly, like I already covered. UCLA was awful early season. They beat ONE ranked team by 30+ and that was Kansas. Texas, Louisville, and UNC all put up fights and none of those are even top 15 teams

                                  And Florida matches up "perfectly"?

                                  Honestly this is kinda an inane argument. We could both be right or wrong... Fact is they haven't been beaten yet.

                                    neither had FSU before the playoffs. I said Florida matches up best with them in the SEC

                                      Well I think it's a bit obvious we both are a little biased... Guess we will sit back and see.

                                        It seems Kentucky just has too much height for everybody and as we all know height wins

                                          The one team that could beat them is West Virginia because of the press but they probably dont play. Kentucky is big but not really a lot of ball handlers. I think Arkansas gives them a better game in the tourney though.

                                          Arizona maybe just because they are the one team who might be able to lock down Kentucky on defense but I dnt really think Arizona has enough firepower to score on Kentucky either. Duke a chance because of coaching but I dont really think Okafor will have a good game against Kentucky's big men.

                                              Hot team on any given night. Then everyone will say "yeah, I saw that one coming" LOL

                                              I still reminisce over Kentucky undefeated at -130. Next day it was -210 and I never got in on it.

                                                Wisconsin can easily beat Kentucky because their shooting keeps them in any game.

                                                  The refs can and will beat anyone they choose in college basketball.
