UConn is about to oust Nova.

And that’s got to be it for the Jayhawks. 7 points down with 30 seconds to go. If KU pulls off the miracle, good but I don’t see it.

I think Kentucky beats them. Kentucky has had an up and down year, but Wichita State hasn’t faced a team with this much talent all year.

So Long, Wichita State, thanks for playing.

That’s what happens when you play a real team.

How about that SEC!!

Kentucky beat a University by 2 points that is about 1/4th of it’s size.

SEC, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee are still in it. Anyone else I’m missing?

That will quiet all those Wichita State folks thinking they were better than Florida.

They lost to a team we’ve beaten three times......so far.

Yes, I think Kentucky can make it to the Final.....They have the talent, it was just a matter of them gelling. And I felt when they came back and almost beat us in the Conference Final, that they may have turned that corner.

You misspelled ‘Dook’.

For the record, Kentucky are one of the most famous basketball powers in history along with teams like Kanas, Indiana, North Carolina. So if Kentucky are SEC, obviously, at least KY knows basketball. Kentucky has been winning national championships from way back.

“1948, 1949, 1951, 1958, 1978, 1996, 1998, 2012”

I looked it up once, this may well be tops among all universities, so Wichita State in the end, lost to a team with more championships than anyone else, probably more than UCLA when they had their big run.

It certainly wasn’t like Wichita State ran into just any SEC team. I’d like to see how many SEC teams have their arena named for a former coach as Rupp Arena is.
