Finally, UK is an under dog with nothing to lose. I invoke the spirit of Richie Farmer and Travis Ford to have them guide all of Knight and Lamb's 3 pointers to the bottom of the net on Friday.

And Gimel Martinez too! You can't fuck with the spirit of that porn stache!

Kentucky is going to go off on them Tony Delk style.

With a side of Jeff Sheppard and Cameron Mills!

Oh, and Josh Harrelson is the reincarnation of Scott Padgett. Without the 3-ball shot.

I'm so excited for this game. I think it will be the most exciting one of the S16. UK is a little bigger and more athletic than OSU, but OSU is more technically sound. Jones vs. Sully will be huge.

OSU has started slow in both of their games. If UK jumps out and gets a big lead and puts pressure on OSU it could be blowout city. If OSU jumps out, I can't see a young team like UK coming back from a big deficit. The key is getting out fast and and staying there. I'm definitely rooting for UK. OSU is just a load and probably is the favorite to win it all at this point.

Either way, getting to S16 with this team is huge for UK. They will be able to build on it big time with the absolute monster class they have coming in next year.

Can't believe how much of a disappointment Jon Hood has been. I really thought he would come in and be a dead-eye shooter and I was seriously bummed when Duke missed on him.

If you think UK is gonna blow OSU out you are nuts. Not saying they cant win, but no way they blow them out.

Two scenarios. 1: Osu isnt shooting real well and it is a really close game going either way. 2. Osu is shooting well and they blow out kentucky.

Well Purdue beat OSU by 13 and I think UK is a better team than Purdue. Not saying it's going to happen, and it most likely won't, but saying there is no chance? Whatever you say buddy.

I'm sure Tennessee thought the same thing when they had a 20 point first half lead on OSU in 2007. This OSU team is better.

Damn, did not know UK has never beat OSU in tournament play.

What do 1945, 1961, 1962, 1968, and 1987 have in common ? All UK losses to OSU in tournament play.

Sweet, then they are due!

2 hours, 20 minutes and counting...I'm soooo excited!

I just hope it's better than the North Carolina/Marquette game going on right now.

Less than and hour right now...

Both games are blowouts. Kansas is whooping it up too.

Kind of crazy to think that they didn't go with the team they had last year, but are somewhat favorites to win it this year. Bad news is that B.Knight and Terrence Jones are nearly locks to go to the NBA draft. Good news is that they have two of the best forwards and the best PG in the nation coming in next year.

Can't even hate. UK is a top 3 program right now. Getting Lamb back would be huge for UK.

I always though Harrelson had some talent. The development of these younger guys with some the few vets that Calipari are coaching up looks real good. I see a good run this year.

I have a good feeling about the tourney. We play well at home and Kentucky fans travel well.

Just sayin'.

You'd be pretty hard pressed to find any starting 5 as athletic or with as much potential UK will have next year if they return Knight and Jones, then..
