Are you going to throw up in your mouth next week and be for Duke over Kansas?

If I had the chance, I'd throw up on Bill Self. His enabling of years of women battering by his players -- and active recruiting of known rapists like Arterio Morris -- is a giant stain on the game of college basketball. And, of course, a Duke win helps Kentucky. So this is one of life's easier calls.
 
Can't do that.
Never could I root for Duke or UNC. The only exception is if they were having a bad year, like make NCAA as a double-digit seed, and UK plays the winner of them and a top 3 seed (so a direct benefit to our Cats) in the next round.

I love your master class bashing Self and KU everytime they're brought up. @Aike does a splendid job as well. Finally @silentsaregolden2.0 is up there as well. Keep up the good work gentlemen.
 
The all time win total doesnt mean as much to me as the number of Championships. So for this reason I will pull for Kansas as Duke is closer in titles. I do not want to see any momentum for Duke going forward. Screw them. I hate them.

Since it's a regular season game, duke can't win a title, it's a regular season game, and since UK beat duke, I hope they smack KU by 10. I want KU fans to wonder how UK beat duke.

This will bring UK's metrics up. So UK will be using duke like the tool they are.

Then, I hope duke gets upset by buttcrack state in round 1 of the NCAAT.

Voila, Best of both worlds.

Best reply in the thread!
 
May Duke win by 100.

We already beat Duke this year, they can go undefeated in the regular season for all I care.

I think Kansas may be the bigger threat to us in the post K years.

I disagree. KU isn't all that right now. They've looked very underwhelming. Duke looked VERY strong and we beat them. By ystar's end Duke will be an insane threat. Self didn't recruit too hot this past season it seems. He could be waning. He and Cal are really (and maybe Few) are really the last old guards left.

Also, I will root for a power outage. I can't stand either team. Ever....in any situation.

I think you missed my point or I didn't explain it well. I dont want Duke to win as the more of these top games they win means they are a legit contender and I do not want them to be a legit contender because they are so close to us in titles. Same goes for UNC

No I got it, did you see my scenario? One of these teams is going to win that game and since Kansas is gaining on us in all time wins and we are ranked ahead of duke and duke is now working for us (metrics), we should want duke to win this one. Duke's metrics go up and so will ours.

But, once the NCAAT starts and duke has feasted on the weak ACC, I want them to lose right off the bat. That would be the best case scenario for us.

I wouldn't mind seeing Kansas get Saint Petered too.

I get your point but I really could care less about the all time wins lead. Kansas has been playing ball longer than UK so our Winning Percentage all time is better. I care more about titles. That is the overall true measuring stick of who is the best program of all time. The others matter too but not as much as titles. Just my opinion.

A Duke win helps our win over them and the all time count vs aka was so I’m good with Duke winning.
 
Arkansas beat Kansas, this should be an easy win for Duke.

Though Kansas, main post player was sitting out that game.

I totally get that.

The best way for UK to win a title, is to get the easiest path in the NCAAT and in order to do that, we need our metrics to be as high as possible. Since we beat duke, they are now working for us and if they win that game, it helps us. So basically, I want KU to lose by 10+. 😁

Not to mention Tom Izzo, man will never retire it seems, however he appears to be fading, but usually his teams are ACTUALLY built for March.
