Kansas vs. Kentucky: who ya got?

[TheGame414]

Yep. They sure were. In a one-and-done tournament sometimes the logic doesn't apply at all.

Do you want me to go through and have me point out all the times I said that nothing I was saying was absolute, that a team led by freshmen can win it all? Sticking with a track record means that sometimes you'll be wrong, but you're minimizing your chances of it. Until freshmen-led teams winning the national title becomes the norm instead of the exception, nothing I've said really changes.

Kentucky winning this year would do little to change the overall trend, and last I checked they're only in the Sweet 16 so far.

This thread should be changed into Kentucky vs Syracuse now...

Why? This thread is almost a year old.

Bump for this year. Hopefully we'll actually see this matchup this time around.

Kentucky:
Brandon Knight/Jarrod Polson
Doron Lamb/Stacey Poole/Jon Hood
Darius Miller/DeAndre Liggins/Darnell Dodson
Terrence Jones/Josh Harrelson
Enes Kanter/Eloy Vargas

Kansas
Josh Selby/Elijah Johnson
Tyshawn Taylor/Renaldo Woolridge
Brady Morningstar/Tyrell Reed
Marcus Morris/Thomas Robinson
Markieff Morris/Jeff Withey

Kansas is so loaded in the back court that they'll probably have to go to a 3 guard lineup. I'd say Kansas is probably a better team with Kentucky more talented, but not by much.

IMO, neither are presesaon top 5 teams.

Correct.

UK isn't nearly as talented as they were last season.

They had five first-rounders. Kanter and Jones have that chance. Knight's no Rose/Wall/Evans. He's more Kenny Boynton.
