I think if you look at the actual matchup rather than a computer formula, most would say the @LSU game is the toughest game after Louisville for UK...
Y'all couldn't even beat Clemson

If we can get cauley-stein to derp as hard this year we'll win

While a valid point, it was in the Virgin Islands and you could tell we were just not mentally prepared for that game. Plus it was our 3rd game in 4 days for a team that only plays 6 players.
You could also point out that we beat #16 West Virginia on the road as a reason we are dangerous... At least West Virginia uses high pressure defense like UK to stop opponents...
But I still think UK goes 40-0
EDIT: And USC lost to Akron.... Throwing a stone in a glass house man...

I would pick the 5 worst scholarship players on UK to beat SCAR starters

You would lose, too.
But I agree with your premise, I don't see the Cats losing this year.

You don't think WC-S remembers that he derped and won't allow it to happen again? The man is well past the derping stage of his career.

Since Kentucky has 12 scholarship players, that means you would get the 2 not playing in a platoon (Hawkins and Willis) plus probably Marcus Lee, Devon Booker and Trey Lyles. Bottom line, in a 7 game series, UK takes it in the minimum.

Agree. Well thought out. You Cats know your roundball.

Everybody thought Mizzou was going to be the Big 12ish addition that dominated the conference, but it was really Frank Martin.
I know you're trolling, but-naw, many of us Tiger fans thought Martin would make SC a winner at some point. I know I did. The guy can coach and recruit, and his teams are typically physical and talented. The only question is how long before his, ummm, intensity got him in trouble again.
quote:
Now that Martin is not playing with a team filled with true freshman and a squad that lost only one player from last year, he is gunning for that number 1 stop in the conference.
Just remember, MU is doing the same thing this year. We'll take our lumps this year just as you did.
But I don't see Kentucky losing an SEC game this year, so it looks to me like you're gunning for #2.

Nope
ETA: Clearly UK is better than SC. But we finally have a competent team and I am excited to watch them play.
Plus, I can be at the arena in 5 mins from my desk, on foot.
