**BlackcatAlum** · 03-12-2006, 08:35 PM

If we win we will play UCONN ! Not sure what day we play though someone let me know !

UAB-66
UK--70

**CatDawg** · 03-12-2006, 08:40 PM

I think they play Friday not sure however.

**BlackcatAlum** · 03-12-2006, 08:43 PM

We are in the Washington DC region and play in Philidelphia, PA !!!

blackcatfan_48 · 03-12-2006, 08:46 PM

i think that uk pulls off the win in a close one

~~Yellow Snow~~ · 03-12-2006, 08:57 PM

One and done for UK....UAB too athletic and quick.  Kentucky doesn't match up well against those kind of teams. ( see Florida, Kansas )

As bad as I hate to say it, I'm going to have to agree.

Put that crack pipe down, Batpuff.....  :no:

**CatDawg** · 03-12-2006, 09:12 PM

If we win we win by less than 5. 

**alfus21** · 03-12-2006, 09:13 PM

UAB is a great team, and their defense is scary...However I really think they'll have problems with Randolph Morris down low...Their guards are quick but hopefully Rondo will be able to penetrate all game...Id be more worried if we hadnt played UAB ever before, but Tubby knows what to expect this time around, and I think we'll be able to break their press with ease and put it in Morris' hands...UK by 4 in a low scoring game...

**-STAT-** · 03-12-2006, 09:23 PM

I take UK by 5 points in a physical uptempo game. Plus they will be looking for revenge from there 2nd round defeat a few years back.

Pupaw · 03-12-2006, 09:59 PM

UK avenges their loss a few years ago.

UK-73
UAB-64

You will see UK comes out and gets after it to avenge a loss to UAB and to prove they are better than they have played.  Morris takes over just like he did against Cincy last year.

**alfus21** · 03-12-2006, 10:34 PM

UAB's tallest player is 6'9 I believe..I just think we'll have too much size for them

golfman42 · 03-12-2006, 10:39 PM

Kentucky's big men could have huge games against UAB due to lack of size.

corndog23 · 03-12-2006, 11:37 PM

UK by 9.

**BelfryJustice** · 03-12-2006, 11:41 PM

Kentucky wins this one but that is it.

Confused

urrender:

AshlandTcat06 · 03-13-2006, 01:55 AM

UK will win this time around. It won't be easy, but I think they'll come in ready to play and I'm sure they won't overlook UAB. UK matches up a lot better with UAB this year than they did two years ago when UAB pulled off the upset. Morris is capable of having a breakout game, and if rondo can get dribble penetration and UK can get some support from the bench then I think they'll take this one.

My prediction:
UK- 66
UAB- 59

**BelfryPride** · 03-13-2006, 10:45 AM

Friday - 9:45  UK vs. UAB
Sunday - 4:45 UK\UAB vs. UConn

I think UK beats UAB by 10 and knocks off #1 seed UConn by 2

**Batpuff** · 03-13-2006, 11:13 AM

It kinda sucks they dont play until 9:45

windmill · 03-13-2006, 01:24 PM

If UK wins it will be close VERY close, UAB beat Memphis so..i dont really know if UK can pull it out

UAB-73
UK-70
