KENTUCKY , BEST CHOKE OF THE DECADE !
- Thread starter Showenuff
- Start date
And Dan Dakitch said, pre-tourney, that they should cancel the rest of the season as UK would go undefeated "easily".
He was serious.
He was serious.
Going undefeated was a nice accomplishment. But the SEC sucks, and UK got way more credit than they deserved.
No offense but SCREW KENTUCKY....this is our day....we are in the national championship game monday night against a darn good Wisconsin team
THIS IS A BLUE DEVIL DAY
THIS IS A BLUE DEVIL DAY
I wish we didn't have 8 threads about them losing, one is enough, and this one is the original....
Welp, my bracket is officially ruined!

Looked like WCS walked off before shaking hands. Heard reports the harrison twins walked off also. Shocking.
Count me in as one of those guys who thought Kentucky would finish undefeated. Glad they lost though and it should make it much easier for Duke to win it all on Monday night!
I thought Kentucky would go undefeated and win it all before tonight.
They did have a great season and I give them respect for their post game press conference, they did it with class!
That being said I am glad they lost....
Monday is going to be fun!

I know UK can't control how good the SEC is, but I laughed when the announcers were talking about how the only teams that had that kind of lead on UK were Texas A&M and Columbia. Battling back against Wisconsin is a different animal.
38-0 was/is a great accomplishment. One L, especially in the FF doesn't erase that.
That said, SEC was extremely weak through and through this year. I thought all along that NCS and Miami would have been top 2,3.4 in this year's SEC. Of course they got us. Point is, Kentucky's near losses were to mediocre teams at best. Teams that just as much imploded down the stretch all on their own as much as UK just taking over.
To go 40-0 and win it all, UK was going to have to beat ND, Wisconsin, and Duke as it turns out. All 3 of these teams are far better than any of the teams that almost beat UK. In no way was 40-0 as forgone a conclusion as some of the experts predicted. UK was undefeated and very good, not perfect. Now if they finished out, that would really have been something special.

38-0 was a feat, but they never played any competition and it's not like they completely dominated the weak scedule they played, only a hand full of games were completely dominate. The only difference in their talent level was the bench, I don't really think their starting five was ever head and shoulders above anyone else's starting five
It's funny how that clown zoid stopped by within 10 minutes of them sneaking by ND but hasn't showed his face since last night. He's a coward.
UK was a very good team. The thing that bothered me most was them potentially going 40-0 because of the talk that would have surrounded it. They weren't close to being "that" good.
Put them in the B1G or ACC and they have multiple losses this season.

Come on buddy, choke?
A 1 seed losing to a 1 seed in the final four. I wouldn't consider that a choke. A 15,14,13,12 etc... Yes. But from a 1 seed. NO!
i do wonder where the h*** WCS disappeared the second half of the season. Still SMH over him.
Either way, congrats to making the NC game. Wish we could have met but we didn't take care of business. Good luck tonight. I respect K and Duke but you know I can't pull for them. But it wouldn't bother me at all that you,Neners,OAD,sky,Denn,DJ and my other buds and budettes here enjoy a Natty.
good luck my friend.
