Well oblioman I hope you have a great time enjoying all the things they have there at the stadium but I still hope you go home a loser lol...... Not much threat of that though I am losing faith each day in Kentucky's hopes this year of even playing in the NIT lol.

Seriously though good luck and I hope you have a wonderful time at the game!

after our performance last night against Ole Piss,,UK should handle us rather easily. Coach Cal has a young team that needs to mesh a bit. By March, I think UK will win enough to make the dance. The only real threats to them in the SEC is Florida and Ole Miss. We hung with ole Miss so UK should handle them. Florida is playing some good ball. Donavan is one hell of a coach.

Well last night is the first game this year I have been impressed with Kentucky in the way they handled the game. That Ole Miss crowd was very hostile ...it's really something what a little winning can do for a school as far as getting fired up, as I can never remember an Ole Miss crowd being that fired up. I thought Kentucky was in trouble early but they were recovered and regrouped and come out and took care of business in 2nd half. Even though Noel struggled with offense he stepped up huge with the record setting 12 blocks. So I'm really hoping that UK will build off of this win, because you gotta start somewhere.

Then there are those of us that hope UK goes completely down the drain.

Yeah I know a lot of people like to see Kentucky fail but I just can't help but root for them and even though this system that Calipari has brought of the 1 and done players has taken a little bit of getting used to but it's all okay I guess and I also understand there's going to be rough seasons like this occasionally no matter how highly touted the recruits that we bring in are .
And the reason I can't help but root for UK is they are 1 of only 2 teams that my family all agrees to root for & other than that we are a seriously divided family when it comes to sports lol..... The other team we all agree on and love to root for is the Cincinnati Reds

My dislike of some teams is often tied to their coaches and this is exactly the case with Kentucky. I think Calipari is as sleezy as they come and I highly doubt there is not a lot of cheating going on under his regime.

My family were all raised in Colorado and are Rockies and Broncos fans and I'm a diehard Giants and Packers fan (like the Rockies, hate the Broncos). They are understanding though as I got a World Series cap from my daughter and an official Packers (no. 12) jersey from my son for Christmas.

We are all Colorado and Air Force fans, though. My Buffs are coming up fast in Bball, both men's and women's teams and will be heard from in the next few years as they are both very young now.

Normally don't root for UK but last night was whooping it up. Ole Piss was getting to big for their britches. They tried to play aggressive and intimidate the young Cats but the cats came together. Should be a great game between the cats and those F&$ng gators this weekend. Ole Piss will be burned out by tourny time,,me guess is that the cats will be fresh. Cal is one sneaky coach.

If UK makes it to the tourney. I'm still holding out hope though.

If UK doesn't collapse, I think they will get a tournament bid, maybe a 7 or 8 seed. I don't think the team has any chance in the tournament, one win at most.

Early brackets put UK at a 10 seed, and yes, agree that they won't get far in the tourney. This weekend is a big test for the cats. Me Vols play Arky but, meh,,,SEC BB sucks this year.

[oblioman]

Damn,,me Vols choked on a pig today. Oh well, it's sports. Big game tonight - Ole Piss vs the Gayters. Don't normally root for the gayters - ever - but will be rooting for them tonight. Something is stinky in Oxford. Not just in BB but in football. Hugh Freeze is pulling in 5*s like kiffie is out west.

I wished I could talk to the people who run Fox Sports Cincinnati right now because I would scream at them! lol
I'm kicked back here watching Oregon play Cal and Cal ties it up with about 2 minutes left and all the sudden the programming changes to the Columbus Blue Jackets pregame show I thought I was going to cry .....never have I seen that happen before and don't understand it happening either that sucks

[Chris Gerhard]

Number 1 down the toilet again. It will be Duke or Michigan on top next Monday. Curry has been playing hurt for Duke all year and doing a pretty good job although inconsistent, it is remarkable he can do as much as he is, got to give the guy some credit for effort.

[drbrosco]

Well a boring Saturday night turned out to be a special one I don't think I will forget as I was lucky enough to be watching the Louisville/Notre Dame game that went 5 OT's with ND winning 104/101....The only reason i was watching was I had UL picked on my ESPN streak picks & I gotta say at first I was rooting for UL but after about 1 OT I was only rooting for the game to be tied so I could see another OT lol

And how about that Wisconsin win over Michigan! That was game of the week until the ND/UL game was played.

Looking forward to hopefully another great game Sunday with Indiana @ Ohio State....OSU struggled a lot first 2 months but seem to be playing better I think.

I think Kentucky is finally playing better but they are still not coming together as a team in these games imo. But I am holding out hope they keep coming together as a team the rest of the way & peak for March madness & win back to back titles! lol
