    Kentucky vs UCLA thoughts

    UCLA Bruin fan here. My main thought is that I'm so glad that Kentucky and UCLA are playing head to head more as a result of the CBS Sports Classic than the teams previously did during the prior few decades. In my interactions with different fan bases, I find Kentucky fans the most...

    Condolences From Rival Teams

    Condolences from Westwood. Tragic news from what already has been a tough year for Kentucky faithful. Seemed like a really good kid.

    Good luck the rest of the way

    Thanks. Of all of the various forums I've been to, the Kentucky fans here have proven to be some of the most knowledgeable college basketball fans I have encountered. As far as a possible rematch in March, I kind of hope my Bruins don't have to face you guys again (at least not this year). I...

    Scouting UCLA

    I have to agree with you that Kentucky will likely be fresher towards the middle to late second half. At full strength, UCLA would have a 9 man rotation, but will be missing two key players due to injury. Prince Ali, who provides depth an athleticism in the backcourt (had a pretty nice drive...

    Scouting UCLA

    Very, very impressed with the knowledge shown by the Kentucky fan base on this forum. Great discussions going on here about tomorrow's UCLA-Kentucky game and other college basketball stuff. I think UCLA will come out firing early and hit some 3s, but I think Kentucky's D will be the...
