This team is so bipolar then pope subs like it’s an all star game so who knows what to expect going forward. We SHOULD beat lsu and mizzou but I can’t see us playing within 20 of Fla if we make it to Friday. Fla is what UK used to be and what UK should be almost every year, say what you want about Golden but I’d love for him to be the next coach here.

I think we make it to Florida and give them a very hard fought effort but come up just a little short.

I don’t understand why the SEC doesn’t just run a straight sweet 16 tournament. Why do you have the lower tiered teams at such a disadvantage of having to play two days before even getting to the quarterfinals??? I understand all the “this team has deserved to get a bye” stuff, but I've never thought it was really fair to those bottom teams.

I'm gonna say they win a couple and make a decent showing in the third. But anything is possible with this bunch.

Win one, lose to Missouri. Enter the NCAAT with a 20-13 record. (just threw up typing that)

Depends on which team shows up… I voted 3, with a win over Florida, because of the Law of Averages and stuff👍🏼

2 which if you start on Friday is awesome. Unfortunately, that doesn’t even get us to the weekend!

I picked win 1. I could see us winning 0-2. We ain’t beating UF unless their whole team gets caught shoplifting the night before.

I agree about the bipolar part. Most of this season I've said the Cats are like Dr Jekyl or Mr Hyde. As for the Florida part, I am NOT saying it's ok to lose. Definitely not! But in Florida's last 11 games (all wins), in order from closest to farthest, the point spreads were: 7, 9, 13, 14, 19, 19, 20, 23, 34, 34, 47 Which 2 were UK? the closest 2 (7 & 9). And I wouldn't even say that we "played well" in either of those 2 games, but I also wouldn't say Florida played bad in either game. We played just "ok". That said, they and we are both capable of a 30pt loss by the Cats, but we are capable of beating them. And I agree that I would want Golden as our next coach.

0 to 2. I went with 1 for good measure. Wouldn’t shock me if we lost to LSU or made it to Florida before getting put teeth kicked in again.

Well, they were down by 20+ and had to make an improbable pass/catch/shot to win the first time.

People forget we were down by 18 points at one point. We were getting blown out for most of that game. Against LSU, the last place team in the SEC.

2-1, with a solid effort against Florida that comes up short. That would make us 21-13 heading into the NCAAT.

I mean I'm not saying it's impossible but LSU did have the worst record in the SEC.........it would be a horrendous loss.

I’m worried for every game. I can see them laying an egg in the first game. There’s nothing that can happen the rest of this season that will assuage the bad juju I’ve had for this team since the asskickin they took against Gonzaga. It was then that I knew this team was nothing special. As disappointing a team as I’ve ever seen in my 50 years of fandom. Blame it on chemistry, blame it on NIL, blame it on whatever. I’ve been disappointed with this season after all the hype. I just want it to go away. If this boob is going to remain the coach, he’s going to have reach deep into his guts and somehow recreate some magic. Not sure if it’s players, coaches, circumstances, but this shit has got to change. I’ve never been this down at the beginning of March Madness. I don’t even want to allow myself to watch any games.
