They're very fortunate to be in the Top 25, in my opinion.

Well, this is somewhat surprising, considering some polls have Kentucky ranked at 39th, so this is a good thing..Hopefully they will win some big games and prove they belong to be in the top 10...

Good starting position....we have a little respect, but we're still able to sneak upon people.

no surpise to me. If creighton or nevada got into the top 25 and kentucky did, then id be a little mad. Did tennessee get good recruits or something because i thought they lost Major wingate, and Watson. If they didnt get pretty decent recruits then its a little crazy.
