Yeah, I watched the game. The two teams matched up well, it says nothing about how they match up versus the best teams in the field.

How can you deny how incredible they both played? Cleanthony Early was on a different level. It took Kentuckys A game to win, and a team like that has a rather impressive A game.

I couldn't believe they ran that last play for Van Vleet instead of Early. Early had been knocking tough shots in with guys right in his grill. He was otherworldly down the stretch. The last play needed to go his way.

UK has talent for sure but…they lost to the freaking Gamecocks and LSU.
We'll see if they can beat UofL next week and move on.

I would agree with that. Shockers were great but there are no elite teams.
This may be the tourney that has the most parity across the seeding.

I have a hard time believing it was drawn up that way, but rather a result of Early and Baker being well defended.

Maybe. Early threw his hands up when the pass was not thrown his way. Looked like it was open. Maybe Van Vleet was the second option and the inbounder just missed him.
