I'm guessing UL would've rather had Hancock taking that last shot.

So the Elite 8 consists of:
1 AAC
1 A-10
3 Big Ten
1 Pac-12
2 SEC

No ACC, Big 12, or Big East.

I hate the Big 10 so of course I have to pull for Kentucky in the next game.

WORRDD

[ShockerMas]

Reporter just asked MSU player if he's ready for the final four...wtf it's only the elite 8

[Dave Stalwart]

How in the heck did UK lose so many games this year.

Also, I'm not gonna lie... I kind of like Calipari. Somebody schedule my intervention, please.

[newshock1234]

yup Kentucky sure is a 8 seed. Thanks alot selection committee, I hope Kentucky does win it all just to show how bad they screwed up the seeding this year.

[HenryMuto]

Congrats. This game further proves that the TOP HALF of MW region was stacked.

Thanks, I appreciated those that rooted for us tonight, your good people.

young team, came together 2nd half of the season, I think they have won 12 out of their last 13 (only loss is to Florida by 1). Also they had 10 loses with SOS of 2, but KU had 9 losses but gets a 2 seed while kentucky gets a 8.

This is why it still feels like a stomach punch, UK throws that game at the SHOX, we win by 20. Goodness, UK had to play their very best to squeeze out a 2 point win. Play only so so against UL and win by 5

Now there's a really annoying little tidbit

[Slam21]

UK lost games because they were 18 years old. They're winning games now because they've played a full season and they're nearly sophomores now.

They've come together since the SEC tournament. They've won 8 of their last 13 (Arkansas and SC losses involved). However, 5 of their 10 losses this year were to Sweet 16 teams.

Not true. UL plays rugby. And our youth can't handle the street violence. You guys played basketball and that allowed us to run our offense better.

Truth is, WSU is a better team than UL. Especially on offense.

oops my bad, although I think the SEC was way undervalued and the big 12 was way overvalued. Hell SEC had more teams in the sweet 16 than the Big 12 but had 4 fewer teams in the tourney

[HenryMuto]

Dakari Johnson was huge tonight I never thought we would win without WCS. Michigan is a 3 point machine if they get open looks we won't win.
