Not that I can tell you who will win in this very-balanced college basketball year. The talent over experience quote is definitely true. However, when I look at Kentucky's team this year, I think when they get to say elite 8-final 4, a team that has a really good, experienced post player is going to frustrate Cousins and he's going to have a bad game. You see his youth when he gets frustrated. And I think when he does have that bad game, Wall(who is awesome and really fast with the basketball in his hands), will not be able to lead his team to a championship. We'll see, if I'm wrong I'm wrong, but I'm not picking them in my bracket.

They won't get to the elite 8. When they play a scrappy team in the Sweet 16, they'll blow a close game on FTs.

You know the great thing about these threads? You don't say who you think will win it. There isn't one team that doesn't have flaws. The odds are against every team winning the tournament. Survive and advance....that's all that matters. BTW....LSU WILL NOT WIN THE NCAA MENS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT. See that is fact....the other is your uninformed opinion!!!!!!!

I want to see Kentucky beat Duke in the final 4 and then play Kansas in the title game.

I wonder if all of these "Kentucky will not win it all" folk will man up if they do and eat their crow.





Doubt it

A quick search of TD will give me the list. Funny thing is all teams have flaws. UK might be the worst 32-2 team of all time

Lol-love the passion buddy. And you're right, LSU will not win it, we'll take our lumps in basketball and pound yall ever year (except 07) in football. But I'm picking Kansas in one bracket for sure. Of course, every team has weaknesses. But you gotta pick somebody

It's ok to think UK is not as good as KU.....the problem is according to half of the people on here say UK is going to lose before the round of 16 like its a fact. They go out on a limb and if it doesn't happen, you never hear about it, but if it does happen, they will say I told you so. Haters Gon Hate!!!!!!!

That's cool man, I ain't here to start no trouble, just state my little opinion. And I will definitely be the first one to admit when I'm wrong. Not hating on UK, I use to root for Monster Mash when I was a youngster. Just don't think they will win it-that's all

Talent alone can get them to the Sweet 16. It's after that the talent difference (theoretically because we've seen 12 seeds slip in before) will be on more equal footing. They aren't lights out from 3 land, so a good 2-3 would give them a little trouble. Also have FT issues. They're the most ripe for an upset out of the 1 seeds.

Post more.

It's good to have some chill people around. Even more so from the LSU posters.

We could easily lose to an 8-9 in the second round with the right match up. But even when this team plays bad, they find a way to win....and something has to be said about that.
