Next four games before conference starts.

Glad that they're all at rupp minus osu in Brooklyn. Also that KU is scheduled for jan 30.
 
ASU and OH St are no joke, neither is UL clearly.

Play like last night and UK goes 1-3 in the next 4.

Play like Duke game and it's an easy 4-0

I think this will be a good test for us. Minus EKU, all are power 5 teams. Not sure if any of them well be ranked (maybe UL), but it'll show if we're ready to take the next step forward. I do not think any of those teams were predicated to be tops in their respective conferences, so I think this will show us what were working with. Are we going be a middle of the pack type team, or will we be a top 10 team vying for a 1 or 2 seed? I think it can go either way. I do like our team, but we just need to get a bit hungrier.

Yea, I agree that those teams are not world beaters, but do present a challenge. Especially for our front court.

Seeding means a whole lot for this team, the first weekend at the yum is very important.
 
Hopefully Tyler and Marcus' injuries will clear up a bit by Wednesday. Eku will be a good chance to get back on track before asu.

Asu is 5-2 with their best win being a 79-76 over nc state. They play aTm next. Will be a good indicator as what's to come.
 
Just a heads up on EKU, they have the nation's number 2 scoring offense, behind only The Citadel. They are also top 10 in 3pt percentage. They won't be a cakewalk.

Haha great. The sky definitely isn't falling, but these last 3 or so games UK has looked like it thought it could just go through the motions and win based on talent. I suspect Cal will beat that out of them pretty quickly, but if for some reason they did not learn a lesson last night these next 4 games will be even more difficult.
