I've said this before, but I'm a petty, vindictive SOB. I want scorched earth. As much crap as we've been through over the past decade+, I don't just want UT to get back on top- I want all of our rivals to suffer like we have.
And besides, do you really want to play UK in Indy, in front of 50,000 blue-clad, inbred, mouth-breathing
Justified extras?
Yeah, I agree. But they will suffer just as much...or more...when Louisville or whoever they play in the Elite Eight or the Final Four, or...God forbid, the Final, beats the crap out of them, because Callipari is a choke artist par excellence. He has no peer in the realm of choking. He took two teams BEFORE Kentucky to the Final Four and lost. I don't know if Providence was favored, but Memphis certainly was the no. 1 overall seed and couldn't do it (and...oh yeah, both those teams got caught cheating!). Then he repeated that the first time Kentucky made the Final Four...they were the overall no. 1 seed and he choked the game away by failing to make any adjustments at all, whatsoever (IIRC, Kentucky was cold from outside but they kept gunning up threes). The one time he DID win, he had LITERALLY the greatest talent ever assembled in college basketball. All five starters were first round draft picks. Even the "fab five" of Michigan in the 90s were pikers compared to that team.
So yeah...give his dum arse a virtual NBA team and he can win. Anything less than that, like this year, and he will choke it away. I am not worried. Them going deeper will just make it hurt worse for their fans.
I do feel a bit dirty having earlier said I don't mind them winning...now that it's happened I do.
Side note....liking that "Justified Extras" line, lol.
And IF we do face them in the Elite 8, yours truly will be there, I can promise you that.
