So whats your pick??

Kentucky wins, they are the east no. 2. If vandy wins and kentucky loses (vandy @ bama, ken. @ fl i think) they are the no. 2 seed. So, saying we win the first game, what would you rather,

1. revenge game and a chance to play vandy on a neutral court and beat the **** out of them on live tv or

2. A pattersonless Kentucky and maybe an easier road to the finals?

Which is it Vandy or kentucky?

Edited to say: if vandy does win and kentucky does lose, they are tied for second, im too lazy to figure out if the would actually have the tiebreaker so maybe this scenario is a moot point anyway.

Kentucky without a doubt

kentucky

I'd rather play Vandy. We should beat them on a neutral court, and they would give us a big RPI boost and the signature win we haven't had all season.

I want to beat those cocksuckers into submission. And for Shan Foster to tear his ACL MCL & every other ligament in his body.</p>

...We've beaten KY twice in a row, and they will be playing for a tourney bid, plus they'll be pumped to beat us. Vandy has nothing left to play for except seeding, and it would be a revenge game for us.

Vandy all the way.

Vandy gets the tiebreaker due to a better division record.

So if Vandy wins at Bama and UK loses at home to Florida (fairly unlikely), then Vandy gets the 2 seed. Otherwise, UK gets the 2 seed.

I think Vandy would be the more desirable match up for you though for multiple reasons. As mentioned, it'd be better for your RPI and would give you a shot at a Top 25 resume win on a neutral site. Also, UK, even without Patterson, is playing for their tourney lives and playing well at that. Also, in a semifinal game, it's likely that UK fans will cover most of the arena, meaning that it'll be closer to playing a road game than playing a neutral game. And as mentioned, Vandy will only be playing for seeding and will be much less motivated.

Vandy for sure. We Nick Turner them in ATL

and if Foster goes down, I hope our fans there boo the **** out of him.

We really do match up well against them. It's obvious their big men can't handle Rhodes and Varnado.
