Sadly, I agree.

Forecastle was perfect this year, if the lineup is good I'll definitely be back. Louisville was awesome.. I like that kinda town a lot.

I do as well (grew up here). If we could get rid of all the Louisville fans it'd be even better. We already outnumber them so maybe we can breed them out.

That waterfront park is special. I like lookin' at all those bridges.

I wondered if there were many UK fans in Louisville, now I know.. I didn't see a lot of either schools hats/tshirts when I was there.

The "Melvin Watkins Curse" will reach 27 straight games as A&M sweeps Arkansas. (29 straight conference games)

Remember that, just because he didn't add 2 more losses last season (didn't play A&M), doesn't mean the streak resets.

What are you laughing at piggy. You think Arkansas is going to win the league. I assure you UT has a good chance to win the league.

Ole Miss is going to make the NCAA this season. Thats my one bold prediction for the season.

I am going to hate seeing Mississippi State struggle this season. I can't tell you how many good MSU-UK games I have attended through the years. They have been the one team through the years who always gives us their best game and many of them have been classics. Here's to the Bulldogs getting it turned around quickly.

Cats struggle a bit early on in the season, then turn it on in March.

I think it is between UF and UK. Still not sold on Stokes...he can be a beast when he wants to, then a few games...he does not show up. Don't get me wrong, Stokes could be all world (said it ealry last year when he cam on the scene...he just seems to disappear at times.

Watch out for Willie Cauley Stein...my sleeper player in the SEC.

I'm totally sold on Stokes. I thought it was kind of shitty that he didn't get Pre-Season SEC POY.

Cauley-Stein is going to get all kinds of play when teams double down on Noel.

I will say this to the SEC.

You better get us before Feb-Mar.

This UK team will be tough by the end of the year.

I'm sold on Stokes. He'll be one of the best players in the conference this season.

I'm not totally sold on UT, especially if Maymon isn't healthy. Golden is a solid point guard. He turns the ball over way too much. His defense is less-than mediocre, like his decision-making. He's a solid scorer at the position, though. Their wing play is a mystery. McRae has potential, but his shot and shot selection need a ton of work. Richardson is just plain raw. McBee is a good, but streaky shooter who isn't athletic enough to consistently play defense. How D'Montre Edwards plays will be a big factor in how far they go. They need a solid wing presence, and none of the returnees are really that at this point.

Tennessee will finish somewhere in the top five of the conference and get a bid, though.

Bold predictions: Vanderbilt will finish in the top half of the conference. They'll be athletic in the backcourt and have some skill in the frontcourt. The NIT is where they'll be headed, imo.

Kentucky will not win either the regular season title or the conference championship. It'll be Mizzou or Florida.

I wouldn't go that far. Kentucky will be absolutely, ridiculously stacked. Their talent level will be the best of any team we've seen in a while, which includes 2011-12 Kentucky. Florida should be pretty good as well with our two top ten recruits, impact transfers, and returning role players.
