The SEC is garbage, but where I think it helps us is that teams absolutely body the **** out of us and play uber-physical to hide their shitiness. So when we see it in the tourney, it's not a big deal.
Yes sir. There's a reason why Indiana was the toughest game for us in 2012. They chose to basketball against us after 30 straight games and 19 straight SEC games of teams doing mostly wrestling with a hint of basketball, which we had become the best in the country at doing.

Thought after Monk hit a few jumpers in the 1st half the team started really focusing on playing defense.

If only they'd open up with some full court pressure...ah, what am I thinking? o_O

The 2014 Kentucky team only had one more loss than 2017 Duke heading into the conference championship game. That team featured a number one recruiting class and started the season ranked number one just like this Duke team. That team was flirting with the bubble and ultimately ended up an eight seed. This Duke team is flirting with a one seed and will end up no lower than a three seed.

Duke actually picking up traction as a 1 seed if they win tonight. With 8 losses. As the 5th place team in the ACC. Jesus Christ.
I mean, did you read GYERO last night? There's your traction.

Now if they got the 1 seed and lost to a 16...

I will believe it when I see it on Duke being a #1. More likely its just dumbasses like Seth Davis and other Duke blowhards overreacting and trying to drum up interest. Think Lunardi is correct in that the #1s have been locked in since before the conference tournaments.

Cats/Hogs... love the matchup if only for taking a turn down memory lane from '95. Monk is due for one of those nuclear type games and tomorrow fits the bill.

Just take care of biz tomorrow and then try to make a little noise in the dance. All that I really ask out of these guys.

This guy will have something to say about Duke being a 1 seed.

Yeah, tomorrow could be one of those "Get **** right" games where the backcourt finally clicks into place after struggling in one way or another for two and a half months.

Fox seems to be getting back into shape. Briscoe is doing much better about knowing his role. Dom is filling in admirably. Monk could be ripe to explode against Arkansas.

We already kicked the **** out of those guys once this year, why not a second time?

Iowa State is having no issue with WVU outscoring them by 14 since the first 6 minutes.

Now Iowa State is a dangerous guard heavy type team that isn't a real threat to win it all, but could bust a bracket as 5/6 seed.

- Cal: "Now if your going to lose do it today! If we win and are here another day you better win!"

I know he hates these conference tournaments, but use your UK power to try and move the title game to Saturday instead of having that attitude toward it.

Mitch has a phone, right??? I mean FFS, he better be texting Cal or Peavy or someone and letting them know what the hell is going on...

M: "Yeah, you have no shot at the 1..."
C: "Great, thanks for being there for us...[eyeroll]"

The scary part of WVU is that we have one of those **** the bed starts, we're looking at being down 22 instead of 12.

Well, UConn just got knocked out of their conference tournament. They've got a losing record, but that's a nice little run to the semifinal and you know they always get hot in the tournament. I'm thinking a six seed.
