I had Tenn winning the SEC before last night.
Never thought too highly of UK.

Ya I was very surprised that got talked about during the games. I kind of thought they'd take it easy on us and kind of let that die off as much as possible...playing Bills statement where he's reading from a piece of paper made me cringe.

Those of you dissing UK.
After one game do you feel this Kentucky team will finish the season more like the 12-13 Kentucky team or the Kentucky 13-14 team?

I don't care to look up those teams. I think this Kentucky team is going to lose 6-8 games before the tournament, and then people will throw a goddamn fit when they're a #2 or #3 (or Lord help us, a #4) in someone's bracket.

I agree. They'll lose a handful or so of games and struggle. They'll be a 2 seed. They'll be really good come tournament time and they'll advance far.

If Kentucky played in the ACC, they’d lose 10+ games this year.

Something will have gone quite haywire if we see them before the Final Four. This is a two-team season.

and as is usually the case with Self teams, the game KU played last night was nowhere near its ceiling
come January, we’ll likely see a different (and better) KU team

Nah. In late January, we'll drop two in a row, and Doyel will kick his dog as he bitches about how this is Self's worst coaching job evAr.
By February, though, we'll be winning everything by 20+.
Until we go to Stillwater.

* EDIT! Damn! DC beat me to it!
I agree but in the last 7 seasons we had a period in January and/or February (maybe early March too) where we lost....
2 out of 3 and 3 out of 6
2 out of 4
2 out of 3 and 3 out of 5
2 out of 3 and 3 out of 6
2 out of 3
3 in a row
and 2 out of 3
Hard to deny some/many people didn't get just a tad bit panicky.

That's why they call them "the dog days." Happens to almost everybody at some point in the season.Gutter wrote: ↑Wed Nov 07, 2018 1:28 pm * EDIT! Damn! DC beat me to it!

Could be, I’m going to have to see if UK is that bad or Duke is that good. Barrett and Zion are amazing players. I think the only chance a team may have is slow it way down and play some zone and mix in some junk defense. Hope they are not hitting. They got the top 2 picks and very possibly 3rd one in the upcoming draft.

As much as I hate Duke, they were impressive.
