Another brave soul with guts. Still trying to figure out why an Indiana fan and a fan that does not post much are the only two sticking up for the Big East or against the Big Blue. With all the UK hatred or serious dislikers (if that is even a word) and these are the two with the catfish doughballs to put their alliance against the Big Blue out there for all to see. I commend themOriginally Posted by parker

Well srry to go against the grain, but I really feel the first meeting between UCONN and Uk was a fluke..... UK played like crap and Walker scored 29 points.
This UK team is totally different by way of exp. Knight had one of his worst games of his short lived College career. I think he had what, 6 points, 2 or 3 assists and 10 to's .
I say UK wins this game by double digits and I'm an IU fan, but takin the Cats to win.....
Now for the final game, Rooting for a Cats and Butler Match...Glad to see either team win the championship.....
Cats win and it'll keep all the U of L fans crying and moaning for another 9 months and they will continue to be jealous as heck of Big Brother.
If Butler wins..woooot for the Big Time underdog and bring'n the Championship back to the State of Indiana. Even if it isn't coming home to Assembly Hall.....

At least give me this much, after all the "discussions" back and forth all year long between several on here about the best teams and the best conference, we have Mr. Lroberts, devoted IU fan, Mr. parker, self rare poster, are both stepping up against UK and Mr. Trophyhunter, obvious UK fan, and Mr. MsgMills, devoted IU fan, are the only ones that will step up on the UK side. 4 people, 5 counting myself, and NONE of them have been on the side of the Big East all year long in these "discussions". Either the Big East fans are flat out ashamed of their conference for the second year in a row have UNDERACHIEVED when it meant the most or they are flat out scared of UK against UCONN in tonight's game. My bet is BOTH because NOBODY on the Big East side is posting any "discussions" back to mine and that has NOT happened all year long. I would at least post bowing to the greatness of the SEC or put up some kind of "discussion" to debate the facts that I posted. But I guess the arguement that the Big East is the BEST conference has just about as much shot at winning as I would have winning the 2011 Hawaiian Tropic Bikini Contest.

Butler is the best hope that the ENTIRE state of Indiana has at winning a NCAA title. Purdue has a good coach but continues to UNDERACHIEVE at crunch time. Notre Dame losing 5 seniors, the #1, #2, #3 and #5 scorers on the team 52 of the teams 75 points it scored per game and half of their rebounds per game and will only have 2 players back that played more than 10 minutes per game - can you say REBUILDING. Indiana loses 1 Sr who played little but they better put about 70 lbs on incoming recruit Cody Zeller, who at 6'11" and 210 lbs playing against the likes of Sullinger, 270lbs of Ohio State if he returns, will get manhandled on the blocks. DeAndre Liggins weighs 210 at 6'6", Jon Hood weighs 202 at 6'7", Darius Miller weighs 228 at 6'7" all for Kentucky to put Zeller's weight into perspective. IU is still a couple of years away, Crean is a very good coach, and if IU is patient enough will get it turned around but Butler is making them look bad and with IU's tradition even Crean may not make it if serious strides are not made quick.

No Elwood, there are no Cards fans steipping up because they rezlize how ignorant it is to try and bas conference success on one game. Btw, in case you are wondering, the Big east was the only conference that had a winning record against all the other conferences. But because that didn't happen in a one and done situation, you believe it is irrelevant. If that does it for you, have at it. I am taking my wife fly fishing for the first time today and basketball is the least of my thoughts!

I hope you and your wife catch all the fish you can and your thumbs are raw after today.
The Big East winning record against all other conferences includes the games played before the Big East regular season began. Look at the cupcakes that ALL of the power conferences play in conferences. The Big East top 8 teams, Pittsburgh, Notre Dame, Syracuse, Louisville, St Johns, Cincinnati, West Virginia and UCONN played exatly 6 ranked teams in each of their first 10 games. 74 out of 80 games against non-ranked teams will raise a few non-conference records. The 5 teams of the SEC that made the NCAA tourney ALONE played 9 ranked teams in their first 10 games each.
Every SINGLE arguement that is made about the Big East being the best conference is absolutely Ridiculous. A bunch of mediocre teams playing each other pulling the wool over everybody's eyes. Last year 8 teams get in and they go 8-8, with West Virginia winning 4 of those games and had 4 teams eliminated in the first round and Villanova barely won or it would have been 5. Combined 19 teams in last years and this years tournaments go a combined 19-18. 19 games won by 18 teams and only put 2 teams total in the Elite Eights combined of both years. Out of 9 teams combined from the SEC over both years it managed to put 4 teams in the Elite 8. Again half the number of teams get in from the SEC but twice as many get to the Elite 8 versus the Big East.
One year a conference could have an off year, two years in a row and same conference performs to the "level" that it has is a pattern. The Big Least is just that LEAST

I wont pretend to know everything about basketball but what your saying is Butler is in the second best conference because they won tonight and VCU is in the top 4 conferences?GO UCONN!
I believe UCONN will wipe the court with UK and if they dont I wont post anything negative against UK as I hope you wont against UL.

My challenge said conference but I have no problem in accepting your stipulation for I believe my Cats will absolutely drill UCONN. I won't post anything negative about U of L if Kentucky loses tonight.I wont pretend to know everything about basketball but what your saying is Butler is in the second best conference because they won tonight and VCU is in the top 4 conferences?

Thank you sir! If you will admit the BIG EAST is at least better than the SEC you would be doing yourself some justice.
