So we're totally getting a Kentucky-Duke final aren't we.

Unfortunately and it means I have to root for a UK 40-0 season.
I thought duke had an easy ride in 2010 but this one has been even easier and they get a 7 seed in the FF. At least a mid major won't be awaiting them in the title game this time.

it is great but do we need to start questioning why he doesn't do as well in the reg season to get his teams higher seeds and easier paths to FFs?

Michigan State... they have injuries often where they are playing without their top players. plus this year they werent finishing games overly well, not hitting free throws, late turnovers, missing shots. Izzo keeps them going though, he always has his squad playing its best basketball at the end of the season somehow... always playing well and ready for the tournaments, where it is actually the most important time of the season.
Izzo is a great coach!!!

Wisconsin is the team that can stop Kentucky... otherwise I think its Kentucky on that last line of the bracket.
Wisconsin vs. Michigan State, I am the happiest person over this coming weekend!!!

That's expected. Rozier was a bit on the fence when he wasn't having a very good month of February but his play in March assures him of a slot in the first round. U of L will be young and dumb next season. We'll take our lumps but then in 2016-2017...watch out.

That was a great game Lou. You guys had your chances at the end of regulation.
it's going to be an overhaul for UL next year, you guys had great runs the past few years. as of now it looks like Carolina will return everyone w/ the possibility of adding one of the top unsigned players so next year I would expect to be a FF favorite but things can change fast. didn't expect Bullock or McAdoo to leave early the last 2 years and they did.
It was just announced that Anton Gill is transferring. I would suspect freshman Shaqquan Aaron to transfer back out west as well. Rick is adding 2 senior transfers most likely.
for Carolina Roy Williams said last night he doesn't expect anyone to leave but he didn't expect Bullock or McAdoo to leave the last 2 years and they did so nothing official until the deadline passes. It would be nice to have everyone back for a change.
A good write up on the immediate future for U of L's team:

On Wisconsin!
Okafor is just so good at both ends of the floor. It's crazy how fundementally sound he is on the offensive end for a freshman.
UK in another battle.

That is an absolutely horrendous call that wiped out that 3. 5 point swing for Kentucky.
