Gotta like a bet on Kentucky to win it all, won't do it because I want to see Butler or VCU win it all. Kentucky is by far a better Team in this game and with 4 guys that can create plays and score and a big man that has shown he can score and create havoc inside. My worry is the lack of depth (despite what Sir Charles thinks) UK goes 6 deep so foul trouble could hurt them but don't see that here.

How's that fade been working out for you the last month, oh, how many bankrolls I've seen reduced to ashes over these words "they are due to lose"

**babyjesus** · 04-02-11, 08:31 AM

God is telling me to take Uconn since they haven't lost a tournament game all season.

**babyjesus** · 04-02-11, 08:33 AM

Great write up though. you've got skills.

Basically beating Arizona and San Diego st on there home floors. Come on kids Calipari doesn't have enough money to buy off the refs in this one. Uconn blows out the cats again kids.

Hmm, Cincy+SDS+Arizona = tougher road than Clemson+Ohio State+UNC. No way!!! That's crazy talk!!

Beat SD state and Arizona?? Not without a lot of help from the officials. Did you notice that when SDS when up by ten early there best player happened to pick up his 2nd cheap foul. Did you notice the cheap fouls on Derrick Williams when Arizona was up by 9...not to mention the free throw advantage UCONN has had so far in every ******* game. As physical a team as UCONN is, they do not get called for shit. Yeah, maybe UCONN will win and maybe I will bet them tonight but its only because these ******* refs have been riding Kemba'a and Calhoun's nuts since the big east tournement. Maybe things change in Texas tonight.

Nice write up, loving KY as well, UCONN has overachieved and should of lost to zona, ill be on that side as well bol

Was at this game and no Zona should have not beat duke it was a fluke how ever UCONN has been hot and it seems that fatigue has no issue and dont forget about lamb. This is a toss up game in my opinion.

I got UCONN Vs, Butler in the final. Two years in a row for Butler. Would be pretty impressive.

**lolguy999** · 04-02-11, 11:41 AM

yes you're right Kuntucky is the play. This could be Calhoun's last season so that should add motivation to the team to move forward

**cadillac pete** · 04-02-11, 11:42 AM

I've been riding Kentucky since the WV game...No reason to pull off now.

**knelson** · 04-02-11, 11:46 AM

Just like everyone else said, great write up. I've been back and forth on this one all week. Still have time to change my mind once again but right now I'm leaning KY.

**Badgers13** · 04-02-11, 11:50 AM

Il take Kemba in the clutch over Knight everytime.

**elchampion33** · 04-02-11, 12:30 PM

yep I'm with Kentucky also, Kemba is long due to have an off game in my opinion

Don't believe the media, Calhoun ain't going anywhere.

Kevin Ollie isn't ready, when he is, Jimmy will hand off this baby to him, but Ollie needs two more years.

He'll leave when Oriaki and Lamb leaves.

**dlightner** · 04-02-11, 01:03 PM

Like Uconn but good luck

**StanleySharp** · 04-02-11, 02:08 PM

Great write up man... I like Kentucky as well... BOL tonight

**HR Paperstacks** · 04-02-11, 02:15 PM

Kentucky is breaking all the trends. UK was 0-5 in the ncaa tourney against OSU and beat them. 0-2 vs UNC in the tourney both games were in the elite 8 as well and UK beat them to move on to the final four. Cats have also gotten revenge on every team they lost to when they got a rematch this season.

Weak draft class this year, could def see him going first round if not lottery.

**t-wizzle** · 04-02-11, 04:53 PM

Thanks for the kind words everyone... Really looking forward to the games tonight.

**Lumpy81** · 04-02-11, 05:32 PM

**CreaturE** · 04-02-11, 07:34 PM

**t-wizzle** · 04-02-11, 10:55 PM

Tough one. Kentucky was a different team than they had been in the previous tournament games and I think the biggest difference was Harrellson being in foul trouble. Still, they missed way too many open looks and also I need to give credit to UConn for playing some great defense. Even though Kentucky missed a lot of open shots, they weren't able to get to the basket. UConn got to the rim with ease for most of the game (especially with Harrellson in foul trouble) while Kentucky shot jumpers.

I won a lot of big plays this tourney and thought this would be a winner as well but it lost. At least I had the Under

**No coincidences** · 04-03-11, 12:42 AM

It was a good game that could've gone either way. Not necessarily a bad call, t-wizz -- Kentucky just dug itself too much of a hole and got gassed down the stretch. These teams are pretty even, but I think Kentucky's youth showed a little today. Plus, like you said, they really missed having Harrellson on the floor down the stretch of the 1H.

**HR Paperstacks** · 04-03-11, 12:59 AM

Tough game, if you told me UK would hold them to 56 points before the game Id have better ever dollar i could get my hands on with the cats. Bad shooting night especially at the charity stripe doomed us. Brandon Knight had a bad game offensively going 5-22 from the field and took some bad shots. They cant win big games when they only get 14 points and 7 boards from Miller/Liggins/Harrellson.

Sucks to lose but it was a great season for my wildcats, just didnt get it done tonight.
