You said "remember those days?", like you were there. That's what I was referring to. Trust me. I understand EXACTLY how well you utilize the Internet. ;)

They will be good, but without Moore and Johnson, they wont be better.
I'm doing AWFULLY in the Southwest bracket. I've gotten 8/12 games wrong. I've got Kansas winning the whole thing, but if they lose before the final four, that'll mean either the 10, 11, or 12 seed makes it...
It's official. Don't know how I feel about it yet...

He's a lying cheater that made his team and the University into a joke and made the whole SEC Conference look bad !! Just be glad he got the boot because if he stayed the NCAA would've really stuck it to UT big time.... And now just hope they go a little easier on you guys since that moronic AD Mike Hamilton (He should get the boot too) got rid of Pearl. I'm sure that's why Hamilton fired Pearl.
Well now that my good start finished off badly, I'm not worried about my bracket anymore, worried about Kentucky/OSU, I know one thing for sure, with the outcome either way my life will become ****, hoping it's because Kentucky beats them :P. I really think we have a good shot at beating them, Lamb's ankle will be doing better, he hasn't been the same since the ankle injury, Jones won't have his cold, and with Jorts(Harrelson) and Miller playing amazing lately, and Knight being Knight we should do very well. Our key to winning the game is not stopping Sullinger because most likely that's not going to happen, we'll have to keep out of foul trouble, and limit his offensive rebounds, if we rebound well I think we'll win the game. Rebounding by far is our key, especially since we've been VERY up and down at it, other than that Kentucky matches up well in every aspect of the game. The one thing that is driving me insane is that the OSU fans think they have it locked since they blew out the first two opponents, Kentucky blew out their first two opponents and look what happened last year, that's not always the case, actually in my opinion the 5 day layoff could cool them down. A 6 day lay-off is going to help a team that's beat up way more than a 5 day lay-off is going to help a team that's hot especially, giving Calipari that long to gameplan for you. Go Big Blue.

You're right on everything but I just want to add more to the Sullinger part...YES let him get his because UK can't afford for Harrellson to get in foul trouble and don't make the mistake of doubling down on Sullinger...he's great at finding the open perimeter shooter/shooters. Perfect examples of this is the four games they played vs. Purdue and Wisconsin...The first game in Columbus, Purdue was too busy trying to stop Sullinger by doubling him and they ended up getting smoked thanks in large part to OSU's perimeter shooters/shooting and Sullinger finding the open man... Craft, Lighty, Buford, or Diebler (They are really good at three point shooting, but really only when their open.) The second game was the exact opposite, Purdue let Sullinger get his and stuck on OSU's shooters like white on rice and Purdue won and by a pretty good margin too. The two Wisconsin games ??? The same exact scenario as the two Purdue games.
UK will be by far the best, quickest, and most athletic team OSU has played all year. Foul trouble could really be a problem for BOTH teams as both teams only go 7 deep. If UK can hit their jumpshots/threes and lock down the perimeter on defense I really like UK's chances. It's all about matchups, especially in the NCAAT and UK matches up really well with OSU.
70 3's???!?!?!?!?!!! Are you kidding me? How can these coaches be paid so much to run the same offense that is run in every church league across america.
It was an exciting game, but not very pretty...not very well executed. Jimmer makes one 28 footer and then takes 5 bad shots in a row, with a few turnovers.
this is all i have to say

Zona pulled it off. I am not sure what would have been worse in my little world, Duke winning as they should have or U of A slaying the monster.
These are literally the two teams I hate the most in college basketball (although UNC does come in a close 3rd.)
Even if UK gets to the final four...those wins will be revoked by the NCAA sooner or later. Thats what happens when the **** of the earth is your coach.
[QUOTE=Adrian!!!!!!;242008]bump for UK win !! Bring on UNC !!![/QUOTE]
Really great game! I don't even care if my bracket is completely ******* up now and that I had OSU winning it all. OSU has it rough, last year taken out by Tennessee and this year by Kentucky, ouch.
As a Buckeye, I'm completely saddened by tonight lol. That's what happens when you shoot 30%, barely rebound, and let the other team block 11 of your shots. *****

Not while he's at UK...won't happen, not with UK's AD and their Compliance Officer (Sandy Bell...she's as good as the come) ect.. They will not allow any questionable athlete(s) into that school and if they do, they will go with the proper procedures just like they did with Enes Kanter (Who was ruled ineligible by the NCAA this season) this year, they just won't tolerate/allow that stuff... UK is not Memphis or Umass.
Also, according to the NCAA, Calipari (as crazy as it might sound) was found of no wrong doing at all while he was at Umass and Memphis.

Thats true. As much as I hate Calipari, it would be pretty cool to see UK get to the final four with Harellson(sp?) as their Center. I have always known Cal. was a good recruiter, but based on this year I am coming around on him being a good coach as well. I kinda do hope the crash and burn next year with that ridiculous class they have coming in.
