9 3's from nd is about their average for the season. that's their game. i by no means expect nd to win. it will take nds best game and one of Kentucky's worst for nd to have a chance. they are going to get destroyed on the glass.
The biggest problem every team has with Kentucky is their length. You need multiple guys that can create their own shot to have a chance. I think they said Kentucky's field goal defense is one of the best in NCAA history.

I want Kentucky to keep hitting outside shots like crazy. get that great shooting game out of the way and pray they play horrible on saturday

Booker is just now coming out of his shooting slump. Look for a great outside shooting game along with good boards against Notre Dame. I'm hoping for an even better game against Notre Dame than they are playing tonight!

And yeah I know...."UK hasn't played anybody. Wait until they meet {insert team name here} and then UK will be shown up for the average team they are!"

Their length is ridiculous. It's a game changer. As Cincy showed, though...you need to SLOW. THE. GAME. DOWN. Don't be pussies. Don't take any shit. Hope to hit some shots. As I've said before and I'll keep saying....Cincy lost by 13. It's a lot closer game with their coach. It's actually not a game til a later round if they had their coach because losing him cost them several games.

When these clowns are hitting shots (tonight) they are unbeatable in college.

Cincy had a better post player last year in Jackson and a better scorer in Kilpatrick. Unfortunately, that's all they had.

If Kaminsky had half the heart Jackson had he'd be the #1 pick in the NBA draft. He's soft. Don't be mad. It just is what it is.

Right, guy goes from 2 high-major offers (Wisconsin and Northwestern) and 2 PPG in his first two years to NPOY and he has no "heart." But the guys who lost in the first round to Harvard do.

You can keep your heart, and the humiliation that comes with it. I'll take the wins.

Man, if someone breathes too hard in this UK game they get called for a foul.

How could it possibly get better? Please, don't go full, crazy homer on us.

Xavier ties it up. Arizona looks really lethargic.

Are you trying to argue Kaminsky being a better player than Kilpatrick? Hahahahahahaha! Please.

I expect Kentucky to double team him like they did last year, and he he'll have a "quiet" game. But when they did that Frank just found open teammates and we scored 73 points on 62 possessions.

Also, the guy had 28 and 11 to beat the #1 defense last year. If he's a siss, then I love "siss." Sissy is gonna be the NPOY. Cincy would kill to have a guy half as good as Frank.

and that's what's messed up. They have 8 or 9 guys that are 7 feet tall and they'll just keep subbing em in and out. There's nothing anyone can do. UK is just too big and too deep this year.

Same here. But he is NOT a lottery caliber player. He just isn't physical enough to be anything more than a role player.

Fuck.. I like Wisconsin. Who else if putting 4 or 5 white guys on the floor and competing?

Kentucky's starting lineup is six total inches taller than ours. Put in their toughest matchup at PG, and we are taller than they are. The depth scares the crap out of me, but the height? It's scary, but nothing we (or Arizona, or Duke) can't handle. We aren't West Virginia.

interesting tweet.

Controversy at the D-II Final Four, where officials aren't letting a player with 4 fouls back in the game bc they say he has 5. Insane.
