I'd say Vegas didn't have UCONN and KY in thier final last year either though

Good article and think they have done their homework. I think the ACC will have a couple of teams in the final 8 for sure and maybe in the final 4 too. Wisconsin has a very good chance to make it to the finals too. It's hard to pick this early because of the seeding's but Wisconsin, Duke, Virginia and the Cats would be my pick to make the final four.

Matchups are key

Wisconsin would concern me the most . Bo Ryan teams are known for their patience and I doubt we would rattle them as much as some other teams.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-27-2015, 11:38 AM:

Bo Ryan can do more with less than any coach and has done for years.

I am with Handy, that is one team I wouldn't want to play.

VILLINOVA IS A TEAM TO WATCH IMO

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-27-2015, 01:15 PM:

You might be right. There are several "good "teams out there, how many great teams are there?

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-27-2015, 01:52 PM:

Big difference in great teams, and so far there isn't a team that stands out like we do.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-27-2015, 01:54 PM:

The ACC has a number of talented teams but they keep beating up on each other. It will interesting to see how they do in the NCAA tournament against teams outside the ACC.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-27-2015, 06:56 PM:

Yeah, I agree ACC is kinda strong but I'm not sure they are WILDCAT STRONG!!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-27-2015, 11:03 PM:

Heavens no, we are Kentucky but as a league (SEC) I think we can be competitive with anyone in the country except for the ACC.

Normally the Big Ten is a very strong and deep league I think they are down this year.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-28-2015, 09:08 AM:

Last year we had 2 SEC teams go deep into the tourney when they only predicted 1.

Every year it seems like the NCAA tournament has surprise teams and last year was not any different.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-28-2015, 11:20 AM:

I'm hopeful that we don't have any surprises on our way to Indy!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-28-2015, 02:32 PM:

It could happen but with the players we have I doubt it.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-28-2015, 02:48 PM:

Just have to remain focused!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-28-2015, 03:25 PM:

That's a given MH and the coachs will get it done.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-28-2015, 03:25 PM:

Cal is one of the very best for getting players up for a big game.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-28-2015, 03:27 PM:

I think the worst thing that could happen is if the players are to jacked up. It's a fine line when it comes to getting your team ready for a important game.
