Anybody with a brain knew that Kentucky wasn't going to go 40-0. No way. The chance of that happening in this day and age is real slim. It's OK for a fan to dream...and 40-0 was a stretch of the imagination. Especially with a team of 18 year old kids. Michigan State is a great team with a hall of game coach that's all class...played wonderfully. I predicted State by 11. Seemed pretty obvious to me.

Kentucky got talented kids? Hell yes. They'll probably be in the hunt come March if things come together...but a hot handed team on any given night can end that. State, Kansas, Duke, Louisville, Kentucky, Arizona...any one of them could cut down the nets. Louisville has a great shot at a repeat, no doubt. Another team could jump up and make a run.

Kentucky was 3-1 odds last week when I was in Vegas at the sports book at Caesars Palace to win it all...and Vegas knows a thing or two about predicting. Some other teams had similar odds too though. Kentucky just gets a lot of press, mainly because of John Calipari.

Nobody said that UK fans aren't crazy. Are we arrogant too? Hell yes. There are probably no fans more arrogant and dilusionally crazy than Kentucky Basketball fans. But I'll tell you what...when your team, whomever that is, has the most all time NCAA wins, has 8 NCAA National Titles, can load 23K in your barn for a practice after camping out in the cold for a week, go ahead and walk with a little swag. You won't hear me calling you out on it.

Until then, just hate Kentucky. I'm OK with that. I love reading it. lol
