I see Kentucky being way to athletic for Cornell. I see John wall with a huge game with transition baskets.

interesting match-up. "Heady" vs. "Rangy" -"Gym rat" vs. "lengthy athleticism"
In all seriousness, this game intrigues me more than any other sweet 16 match-up. I think UK does end up being too athletic in the end...

They played KU tough in Lawrence. It all comes down to the shooting. If Cornell is hitting from everywhere, like in Lawrence, it will be close and they can win. If UK is hitting like they have been, then it doesn't matter. In the end, UK should handle them. But you never know.

close at halftime. Kentucky wins by at least 15.

I will not pull for UK due to their fans, same as UF in football. GO CORNELL!

When they beat us and some laughed I said they'd beat us 9 times out of 10, they're legit, they've got good guard play, good shooters, and that rare thing for a mid major with those qualities, a 7 footer that can play. They're good. But Kentucky's probably just too athletic. Wall takes over a close game late and Kentucky wins.

If UK keeps hitting 3s it'll be over at halftime.

Vegas has it at 9. I tend to think Cornell covers the 9, but loses. Their style will frustrate the athletic style of Kentucky.

i think UK will win but it wont be easy. Cornell is pretty good, i say UK wins by less than 10 points

Cornell doesn't have the athletes to win. It's that simple. Should be fun to watch though, Cornell is going to give them fits early but UK will roll when they need to.

The Fightin' Nard Dawgs will give UK all they want. It will depend on if they are hitting their 3's, if they have a chance to pull the upset or not.

Has Kentucky played a team like this all year? With the seven footer, this could be a great game. Cornell has to slow this game way down. If they can do that and not turn it over and keep KY out of transition, they can win this for sure. Just like Northern Iowa and Kansas.

The thing about Kentucky, besides being the tallest team in college basketball and arguably the most athletic, they are very deep. Their length and athleticism get teams in foul trouble and if you look at Cornell's roster they are not that deep
