I've watched a lot of UK basketball this year and they are slightly above average. This Cats team reminds me of a poor man's Bruce Pearl coached team. Live and die by the 3 but they have a terrible defense and not the classic Bruce pressure. Make it a half court game, pressure the perimeter, make them space and beat you with the midrange and dribble drive and that's ball game. Tennessee does this better than anyone. They probably lose to Arkansas this weekend too.

When UK scores 90 points their fanbase is headed to the NCAA finals, discussion starts about who they will play and their victory margin. Then of course multiple championships back to back to back, all the while forgetting who their coach is.

With UK’s lack of defense, I expect DK to have 30. If they double up DK, then JJJ or ZZ will combine for 35.

UK can get hot, but unless there is some help by the zebras, I don’t see how UK beats us.

Total meltdown just 48 hours after they declared world domination
I was really impressed with LaMont Paris when he was at UTC. He almost got them to the Sweet 16. Would love to poach him from the Cockies when RB decides to retire. Of course if he beats UK very often they might poach him!:)

Have you seen Piggie play this year? I don't see UK losing to them.
