Man I was just on the Davidson board to get a feel for our upcoming game with them. They really seem to think they will beat us. Lots of talk about beating us wouldn't even be their best win. They don't seem that educated with basketball, talking about us like it was Dec.. Saying we play one on one ball, can't shoot the 3 and will struggle against their 3 point shooting. Doesn't sound like the team I have been watching lately. I don't know I only looked at 5-6 pages, it went on many more pages, like 11+ or so. They talk about academics like we are UNC and despise Cal, mentioned one and done over and over. They also mention here and that we are ********, etc... Plenty of non Ky fans and even Ky fans not giving us much credit over there. Typical, I guess. Man, Davidson with some **** talking, ok.

If we play like we have I hope we bury them. No doubt they are the best 12 seed and we need to have all focus on them as they mention we are over looking them. I don't think Cal will and hopefully the team gets you can't overlook anyone in March. I think they will come out with fire and the underdog spirit for awhile, but in the end if we play like we have I can't see us being close in the second half. Only real team they have beaten is RI, who I was never thinking was ll that great. I guess good to hear some **** talking and hate from them, I hope we destroy them. Here's a post from a non KY fan that they ate up and loved over there LOL.

Greetings from a UD flyer fan. I will be rooting hard for you guys Thursday night. Beyond the fact that we are conference brethren, I really like your program. After UD, Davidson is my second favorite team in the A-10. Awesome coach, passionate fans, teams that are always fundamentally sound and fun to watch. So it is a foregone conclusion that I am pulling for you.

The coup de grace is that i DESPISE Kentucky basketball. I mean I really really hate them. A hatred that goes back to the 80's. They have the most arrogant and ignorant fans in college basketball. Visit their board (Rupps Rafters) and you will see what I mean. Many are scoffing at the thought of Davidson beating them. They think their sh** doesn't stink. They are mostly ********.

Please please beat them. This truly is a game of good vs. evil. Luke Skywalker vs. Darth Vader. John McClane vs. Hans Gruber. Dora vs that swiper fox dude.

May the force be with you Davidson. You are my only hope.

I usually respect the smaller schools and i'm not looking pass DAV. I sure do hope we give them a rude awakening now. Sounds like they don't respect us as a program or their next opponent.

I think with the national media picks for Davidson it will motivate our team. They will have to play lights out against us. I mean they are going to have to throw the package on the table against ours

I saw that same thread after our local bet-hedger (HenryMuto) posted it.

That nafdu / UD fan has serious mental issues. Imagine caring so much that you post about loving IU on a UK board, and hating UK on a Davidson board. Get a hobby.

I wonder who we will put on Peyton Aldridge, who is a 6'8 senior who has averaged 20+ points the last two years. I would imagine he is a very crafty player.

Regardless of what some Dayton dude posts or what Davidson fans think, we all know UK better be locked in to this game. We have witnessed our team not locked in at least 10 times this season. Our younguns can’t afford to play to the level of their competition. If Davidson gets hot shooting the three and we keep them in the game until late bad things could happen.

After just redeeming themselves by winning the SEC tournament losing to Davidson would certainly take the luster off that accomplishment. A loss to Davidson would make for a very distasteful end to this season for many UK fans. We could tolerate a loss to Arizona but lose to Davidson? Ugh! For Davidson, they have everything to gain and nothing to lose. A win over a blue blood like UK in the NCAA tournament would be a huge highlight for their program. Stay focused Cats!

Well this board is full of a bunch of a$$holes, let a opponent fan come here and it is beat down. Don't want to be thought of that way don't act that way. Even if they come in talking smack take the high road, we are better and should show it JMHO

I feel very confident in beating them. Coach Cal just doesn't lose to teams like that in the NCAA Tournament. The worst team he has lost to was an under seeded IU in 2016 that was a 5 to our 4. He doesn't lose to double digit seeds. Can it happen? Sure it could in a single elimination tournament. Will it happen? I feel very confident it won't.

They just don't matchup well with us. To beat us you need to offensive rebound and force turnovers. Neither of those are a strength for them. They also don't get to the free throw line or foul much. So that tells you they will likely shoot about 30 threes and have to hope they get over half of those in the basket to have a chance to beat us. I think we win by about 12 because of Cal calling off the dogs and conserving energy for the next game.

I had nothing but respect for DAV before I read some of that post. They did call us the bluest of the blue bloods, but most were shots that don't connect. Shots against our academics, we are the ruin of college basketball OAD, etc... I guess it's good most of them expect to beat us, I guess you have to be like that. I'm not focused on ARZ yet, ready to stomp a mud hole in DAV's ***. Look if they were playing any other 5 I would like their chances with this field, but not against us. They haven't played anyone like us. Shooting 3's over GM and Richmond like teams is a tad different than shooting over us. Let's stomp some baby wildcats Wildcats!

Am curious what you expected? Their fans to be sniveling and whining? Let the build themselves up, it won't hurt anybody......and shouldn't bother us at all.

They'll lose by 20 and will barely be memories after that.

The highest form of arrogance is when a small program which has never done a thing nationally believes it has somehow earned the utmost respect from the winningest program in the history of the game.

Piss on Davison, and every little jackass turd like them.


Well I guess they can dream can't they?

They lost by 10 to UNC who I think is a good bet for the final four. We should win but it may not be easy.

As long as we play like we have I would think us by 10. The only way DAV can best us is if we beat ourselves. Although yet another way the NCAA screwed us, no rest in this game. Toughest of the 12's, but we are supposed to be the top 5 seed. I would pick them over any of the other 5's except WV. So we get the best 12, best 4 and overall 1 if seeds hold LOL. Also could have he best 3 waiting after that or a tough Cinni team just to go to the final four. How is TT a 3 and Witch St a 4?

You can't expect them not to post about winning on their own board. If anyone here posts about their low expectations they get blasted--I'm sure it is like that on all message boards.

The only worry I have is that teams tend to have their best 3 point shooting games in history against us. You know how it is--opposing players have the game where everything they throw up falls in. They are a good 3 point team who can shoot it from all positions. If they catch fire it might be an especially sad outcome for us.

The only way they could beat us would be hitting tons of threes. They are not athletic enough and lack the depth to compete with us. They can talk **** all day for all I care.

They connected on 26 threes against Charleston Southern earlier in the season. That is a helluva lot of treys.
