For those of you still hoping we win today

[AshWilliams]

Remember in 2011, when we ran the table in the SECT and beat #2 Florida convincingly, and the committee resoundingly voted to give us a 4 seed?

Yeah, good times.

As of right now we have a solid 3 seed, and there's ZERO chance of getting to a 2.

So don't get your panties in a bunch hoping we keep winning games.

What we all should be holding our breath for is Butler's return for the NCAAT.

There really isn't anything else left this year.

Butler returns, we could get to an EE. He doesn't, well...see ya next year.

Either way, just remember: The committee hates us, and the refs hate us. We have to win 5 vs. 8 to have a shot at any title.

Ain't gonna happen. I'll gladly eat crow if I'm wrong on this, but I'm not and you know I'm not.

Pope's done a great job. I expected 20 wins, we got 22. Maybe 23. But we can't beat the injury bug this time.

 

[LukaszObrzut]

We will keep hoping we win- should we wish to lose?

 

[Aike]

Yeah I think I’ll just root for us to win every game we play.

 

[TheDude73]

Fine with a 3.

I still want to beat everyone this weekend. You're never going to stop me from wanting that.

 

[uk78]

Love posts where a person is trying to rationalize a loss before it happens. How about Noah, Perry, and Chandler go off hitting tons of shots in addition to the rest of the teams performance, and we blow out Alabama?

 

[Bkocats]

Maybe he’s saying that hoping we win just to get a 2 seed is not realistic?
At least I hope that’s what he means

At any rate.. this team has surprised us before
So who knows what will happen

 

[SemperFiCat]

Solid case, I'm convinced. We should really just try to lose.

 

[Bluesnky]

I’ll do whatever I want, thanks.

Yeah, take that crap and go somewhere. I want to win EVERY game. I want to win the SECT. Not for seeding, but because it's OUR TOURNAMENT DAMN IT.

Now, that being said, I'm also a realist. If we don't win, I'm not going to be overly upset as long as we don't get run off the court, or have a chance to win and blow it by doing something stupid.

 

[Coach Marrow]

I always want to beat the Bammers

 

[Wildskatfan]

Right now Cal and Pope both have the same number of tournament wins this year.
Yeah, I'm going to stick with hoping we win.

 

[Piocat]

Tonight I'm just rooting for our 4th win in an end-of-the-year 12 game win streak! Why not dream big!!!

Have we found John Calipari's account?

Pretty sure not the same people on the committee. So you never know. But I think we are a 3 seed now and probably will be no matter if we win tonight and tomorrow.

 

[billoliver40]

A 2 seed probably isn't realistic. Everything is a one game season now.
Tonight it's called Alabama and that is plenty and more.

 

[SemperFiCat]

I wonder if all the thousands of BBN in Nashville know that this game doesn't mean anything. All they did was waste their money. Lol, idiots.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

I personally want Kentucky to win every game they play. Just a weird personality trait I have I guess

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Tomorrow one semifinal will be the lowest scoring game of the SEC season rematch. It makes perfect sense that the other one is a rematch of the highest scoring game. Therefore, Kentucky will be playing Florida tomorrow in a rematch of the 106 to 100 game. And Auburn and UT will restage their 53 to 51 rock fight.

You’re an embarrassment to the Williams name. Change it loser!!

Really hope. But they could sell the super powered offenses of Alabama vs Florida as well.

Remember what happened to you the last time you crossed one of my predictions.

It's the Cal Effect.

 

[sportspm]

They give a trophy for winning the SEC tournament and it goes in the history books. Don’t be a Cal

You may indeed be correct, probably right but I’ll still root for these guys. They won’t quit.

I hope so. Bama either needs to be ice cold, or somebody we don’t expect needs to go off

Cal isn’t the only coach in UK history who didn’t feel like the SECT was the most important thing. I definitely understand why it is important to many fans though

 

[chroix]

There should be certain posts where we get free rein on use of profanity. WTF is this post?

 

[BlobUK]

Get this sissy crap out of here. We're Kentucky. We win.

We WILL win today. I am feeling a double digit win. You heard it here first.

 

[OneBadCat]

Tall task tonight, but I’ll be 6 feet in the ground when I quit “hoping” we win games.

 

[mrjuk]

Satire right?

 

[LineSkiCat14]

We will keep hoping we win- should we wish to lose?

Honestly we can't sustain another injury to any of our top5. We are at the end of our rope from a personal standpoint. Lose a guy like Oweh or Amari and our first NCAAT game might honestly be a toss up. And I'd rather not lose in the first round, as a high seed, 3 of the last 4 years. That would surely be a first.

I can't root for a loss.. but this is one game where I won't be upset if we lose.

Some post’s just defy intelligence. Just because we are underdogs does not mean we should not root for our team and be disappointed if we lose. Our seed in the NCAA Tournament has little to do with cheering for UK to win the SEC tournament.

 

[ftp000]

If Texas has a possibility of making the tournament with a 19-16 record, solely based on 6 SEC wins, I say we still have a shot at a 2 seed. Just win 2 more, Sunday doesn't factor in.

 

[TankedCat]

would love to see us beat Bama after losing to them twice

pretty disheartening to lose to a team 3 times in the same year.

 

[CGblue]

I'm actually tired of all this winning, somebody said it would happen.

Jack Pilgrim was saying today that he thinks a win tonight puts Kentucky squarely into two seed contention

Great minds and all that.
