Reminds me of our loss as a two-seed to Coppin St. Only we weren't Kentucky. This is humiliating to a league which some said might be the best in the country this year. That myth has been debunked.

About on par with that. Both school have a touch over 2k students. But, yeah, we weren't a blue blood.

Bad for the conference, bad for many brackets, good for my schadenfreude. Always like to see “Big Blue” go down in flames.

It destroys my bracket, but I love it.

Good first day. Two 12s and a 15 so far.

Hope tomorrow is good. A few years back there was total mayhem the first day and then the second day every single higher seed won.

At the same time…there was no point this season that Kentucky was the best team, or near the best team, in the SEC. They are just Kentucky…and for some reason everyone thought they were better than they really were.

That's fair.

Per ESPN it was the largest upset in the tournament since.....wait for it.....Coppin St beat us in 1997 as an 18.5 pt underdog.

But Charles Barkley said they were the best SEC team and they were the best bet to win it all out of the SEC. I guess I should listen to Samuel L Jackson? Spike Lee? Maybe Jalen Rose? Somebody that knows more about basketball than me?
