We don't really press often.  Did it against Duke a decent amount but that was more of a matchup thing.

I'm not saying we could hang athletically because we can't.  Our freshman post players would get eaten alive.

Agreed.  That's why the Oregon game is an interesting matchup to me.  Bell got 8 blocks vs Kansass.  While that's great.  Their only person inside is Landen "I'm extremely shitty" Lucas.  This Bell guy won't have the freedom to roam the paint against UNC with Meeks, Hicks, Bradley and now Maye inside.

Luke Maye has outplayed Hicks in this tournament and its not close. Hicks needs to step it up

Hicks has spent a good bit of the tournament saddled with foul trouble. Luckily, Maye has picked up the slack in the scoring column and Meeks has picked up the slack in the rebounding column.

I don't care who puts up the numbers as long as they get put up.

I can see Bell blocking the hell out of Meeks on those offensive rebound putback attempts. Meeks needs to still eat on the boards though.

A lot of his foul trouble is his fault though. He's notorious for picking up pointless fouls. One good thing about Hicks is that he has the ability to drop 20 any given game, he's that talented. I hope to see that vs Oregon

Oregon likes to switch up defenses a lot but expect to see a lot of match-up zone on Saturday. UNC's depth in the middle will be difficult for the Ducks to handle but Jordan Bell might be the best defensive player in the country and needs to stay out of foul trouble. I'm just hoping we can ugly it up and keep it a close game.

It's nice to be on the other side for once

My Kentucky Wildcats already beat one of those turds this season, would love a shot at the Dukies in the tourney. 

 

 

So how was that game for you?  How's it feel to be beaten by a Turd.   Have fun replacing your freshman.   Kentucky the greatest Elite 8 team of all time.   Best college team money can buy.

Calipri is a cheater and should be banned from college basketball.  Not one but two college programs got put on suspension because of that cheater.  Massachusetts and Memphis.  Sooner or later they catch him doing the same thing.  Just a matter time.

I didn't know there was an Oregon fan on here. And damn I hate zone defense

The videos of the UK players crying in the lockerroom just fuging suck. I can't stand UK and Calipari, but damn, those are still 18, 19 year old kids who just lost the biggest game they've ever played in. Get the hell out of their lockerroom and give 'em some time to deal with the poo they gotta deal with.

Fox is alright in my book. He seems very grounded, humble, and intelligent. Which are adjectives not usually picked to describe Kentucky players.
