Kansas, I do not want my bracket to burst in flames.

**Skip Towne** · 03-17-2007, 10:29 PM

Has anyone seen the betting line on this game?

Silock · 03-17-2007, 10:35 PM

I'm betting it will be close for a while. All the other games this round have been.

It probably will. Part of KU's advantage is that they go 9 deep with no dropoff. And we run you to death. That takes awhile.

Imon Yourside · 03-18-2007, 12:36 AM

KU by 20, UK simply does not have the horses this year, and Tubby is on the hotseat. Interestingly enough on the ESPN bracket contest only 1 person has picked everything correctly and he picked KU to win it all. On the negative side Digger Phelps picked KU tomorrow and his track record proves he's worse at predicting than the SI cover jinx so UK fans you have that going for you.

KU by 20 is laughable.

any idea what happened last year? 73-46 KU and it wasn't that close. I figure UK lost Rondo who was better than anyone they have this year. The crowd should be Pro KU, what's not to like about a 20 pt margin?

Kentucky don't scare me. And I'm not being cocky. Last year, I was man enough to say that Bradley and our draw scurred me. Not Kentucky. Only team in our bracket is UCLA, they are tough, hardnosed, and don't take no shit.

They took shit from Iowa. I have a feeling they'll go down to Pittsburgh, who, after their performance against VCU, really doesn't scare me, either.

UK, though, scares the hell out of me.

KANSAS by 6 ...

RP_McMurphy · 03-18-2007, 08:12 AM

Kentucky's last 8 outs in the NCAA tourney.

UCONN-87 UK-83
Mich State 94 UK-88 2OT
UAB-76 UK-75
Marq-83 UK-69
MD-78 UK-68
USC-80 UK-76
Syracuse-52 UK-50
Mich State 73 UK-66

In all of these games Kentucky was in the game with a minute to go except 03 and 02. So those Kansas fans that are anticipating a calk walk today are mistaken. Kentucky is a much different team this year with Randolph Morris down low. It's biggest problem has been poor execution in the last 5 minutes of games. I see both Self and Smith as exact opposites of each other. Smith is a great in game coach and questionable recruiter. Self is a questionable in game coach and great recruiter. Both coaches have major heat on them in today's game. Tubby has to proove he can still win the big one and Bill has to proove he can win the big one. I see a game going to the last minute and the team that executes best in that last minute will win the game.

Well, yeah but......

"I'm sure their staff will use it as motivation," Kansas coach Bill Self said Saturday. "But bottom line, it's two different teams. And it was played in Allen Fieldhouse and (Randolph) Morris didn't play. So we're not going to put much stock in it. I don't think either team will get much out of it, to be honest."

StcChief · 03-18-2007, 09:24 AM

KU by under 10 pts.
