But both of these teams are obviously #1 seeds. This is one of the best games I've watched all year. If anyone can take their blue tinted glasses off it's easy to see that these are two of the best teams in the nation.

No they're not. They are both a top ten team

RJ Barrett trying to go hero ball and it's costing Duke. He got lucky that the ball went right to Goldwire when it was stripped and then chucked a 3.

I don't know what anyone else thinks, but Duke looks VERY vulnerable heading into the tournament. I wouldn't be shocked if they get upset before the Final Four.

This probably keeps Duke away from us.

But I’m afraid it knocks us out of Louisville if we end up a 1-seed.

Yep . Duke and UNC are not built to beat this UK team as it is today. Gonzaga , FSU and LSU are the 3 teams in all the land that have the best shot at stopping us from winning a title as basketball is about match ups.What do all 3 of those teams have ? Length , shooting and great guards.

Nothing shocks me in college basketball. We’ve seen so many juggernauts lose that no one thought was possible.

Definitely not afraid of any team as I think any team is vulnerable. As long as there’s not an unbelievable cake walk region like Gonzaga got in 2017 and Duke got in 2015, I’m okay.

I don't have blue tinted glasses on..I think UK vs. Duke would be a problem for Duke now..Zion or no Zion. UK is much much MUCH better now than than they were over 4 months ago. Duke ? Not so much.

A good analogy for this would be 2011. UConn and Kemba Walker smoked us in Maui and in the Final Four they only beat us by a mere point because we couldn't shoot in that awful dome and missed a bunch of free throws.

It was a good game as much as I hate to say it, but some ugly 3 point shooting from both sides. 9 of 47 combined.

It doesn't matter anymore to me what happens to any other team, really, except that we simply take care of business and win the rest of our games here on out, we can do it, we've proven we can.

Win this damn SEC tournament, since we got to win games to add to our all-time total, and then the national tournament. So let's simply get out there and get it done. We know what we got. Take the officiating, coaching, players, fans, all of it, and simply beat the world.

I have great confidence in this team (and coach, who should be CoY this year)

Go Big Blue!

that is all

No we win out we are in the South regardless . It does make UNC our 2 seed in that region though.

You really think the committee ranks us ahead of Duke if we win tomorrow?

1.) They’ve lost 1 game with a full roster
2.) They beat us by 34
3.) Louisville is closer to Durham than Kansas City

Exactly..and we win that Final 4 game if we just shoot 6/12 from the free throw line instead of 4/12. And 2019 UK > 2011 UK..and 2019 Duke doesn't have a Kemba Walker or Shabazz Napier.

So we get to enjoy Krhsgsvdski whinging about all the UK fans in Louisville booing his team.

Zion’s fouls could carry over from game to game and he still wouldn’t foul out in a 7 game series.
I was wondering about something similar. So last game Reddish had 4 fouls and I think 2-3 other guys were in foul trouble, but don't think any fouled out. I wonder how many times they have had a guy foul out this year that isn't named Bolden.

Did you know we beat North Carolina?

Unfortunately unc cheat is the best team in the Country “right now” imo. They don’t have a lot of beef inside and yet they still rebound well, have scorers out the wazoo, score in the blink of an eye and pass the ball beautifully. And they have seniors.

The rivalry is just amazing. May not have the most hatred but the games are just magical
