I think a lot of Notre Dame's success was due to Kentucky having two days to prepare for them. They have a very complicated offense and two days would be tough. Kentucky had a week to prepare for WVU.

I think the longer preparation time helps Kentucky more than the opponent in this tournament since Kentucky has the talent to do whatever they decide in that week.

Kentucky could have beaten WVU as the 2nd game

,of a doubleheader after beating Maryland or Notre Dame.

Kentucky is a measuring stick of how far this very, very young Mountaineer team still has to go. I LOVE this WVU team, but it was like high school seniors playing 5th graders, and one of the 5th graders had the stupidity to stick his tongue out at the seniors before the game.

in the OPs defense, there is no doubt the 2nd weekend game is harder to ...

Prepare for. We could play UK 100 times and likely lose almost all of them but getting them on Sat or Sun would surely help WVUs cause

Ky would have beaten WV with no days to prepare. Their height and atleticism were WVU worst nightmares. The perfect combination of Texas, Baylor and Iowa State.

Re: Kentucky could have beaten WVU as the 2nd game

You know. I'm sick of seeing Mountaineer "fans" trashing Dax.

Dax is 18 years old. He predicted HIS team would win. Oh, my God. Let's string him up!

How would YOU like it if someone trashed YOUR son day after day? Yeh, that's what I thought.

Dax is one of OUR family. He's a Mountaineer.

Leave the trashing of 18 students who choose to come to Motown to be a Mountaineer to Arm-Pittski and Marshall and Vocational Tech fans. Come on!!! We're Mountaineers. We should be better than this!!!!!!!!!

You're probably right. I remember reading an article the day before our game where 2 Kentucky players ( Booker was one ) said they didn't watch much film on us. I thought that would come back to bite them, but they played like they studied us for days.
