If I could choose one player in the SEC to be on Kentucky's team it would be Tramon Mark.

Easily. He is Kentucky style. If he had talent all around him .... He is a piece. 100% knew he was going to make that shot. I knew it.


He has big potential

BYU will pound either of these two teams.

Eh…they’re not the same team wothout Saunders and they weren’t exactly world beaters before that. No defense.

But I suppose the combo of Dybantsa and Robert wright will be good enough to carry them to at least one win

I factored in Saunders gone. My comment was based on the two terrible teams on the floor last night and how productive Dybantsa has been since Saunders got hurt.

Yeah after watching parts of that game last night it’s a fair point. Texas came so close to blowing it.

Kentucky should been a 6 seed and Louisville a 7. Kind of BS their best player is out and they still got the same 6 seed they would got with him.

Go South Florida

Tbf, we have 2 guys out so......Granted that doesnt matter to us but I'm sure the committee weighed it some between a 6//7. We were the first 7 seed so, if we hadn't choked to AU.....or UGA.....or UNC....or.....or....

Pretty boring game so far. Whoever wins this game is going to get blown out on Friday.

I thought it was very telling that someone professional like Mashburn would ask something like that publicly. If that doesn’t signal to people this hasn’t been good so far I don’t know what will
It is obvious Mashburn agrees that we have issues. I don't see how many of you still don't. But Mashburn is a knowledgeable basketball guy and so many of you just are not.

If you could choose one player and it is not Acuff then you my friend don't need to be choosing players for us if we ever get a chance to choose one. Oh I am sorry this must be a Mark Pope account.

I know I'm in the minority but I like the first four games. I have no problem with expanding the tournament in the sense of there being more play in games for the 11, 12 and 16 seeds. Why have a room of people decide who should make the field of 64 when they can just play each other? Does having Texas and NC State play a game de-value the field?

The first two games were exciting. The first game tonight, not so much. Hopefully, the second game will be better.

And, no to expanding the tournament.

I’m a firm believer in making all the 16 seeds have play in games. Might see more 16 seeds upset the 1 seeds if that happens.

Both these teams (M-OH and SMU) are hot garbage. Let's not expand the field, please. This is bad enough.

I'd rather SMU win. Miami getting an artificial boost from the crowd for this game that they won't have for the next game against UT. Rather see SMU play UT.
