Kansas-Kentucky National Championship game

After a hard-fought battle against the evil forces of our in-state rival Louisville and its skipper, Mr. Pitino, my beloved Wildcats are back in the National Championship game. Does anyone have any thoughts on tomorrow night's matchup versus Kansas?

Go Heels.

But I like Kentucky by 12.

From the little I heard locally, Kentucky has a awesome team and KU is the over whelming underdog.

Even the local sports casters are betting on Kentucky

Roch chalk Jayhawk, go KU.

Kentucky is by far the most talented team in the nation. I have felt most of the year it is Kentucky, then all the othet top teams a rung or too below. So logically Kentucky is the clear choice. But this is college basketball. KU was supposed to be in a rebuiding year and picked to place 4th in the big 12.
I am going Kansaa.

Kentucky will win going away.

I'm going to enjoy a broadcast without Billy Packer belittling the players for not doing it his way.

C-A-T-S Cats! Cats! Cats!

Needless to say, Lexington is a crazy place to be right now. I have no plans to take part in the various couch-burning antics currently going on. Safety and order should always come first! And great game to you Kansas fans...I am thoroughly impressed with how they fought back.

That was a good ballgame. Two fantastic coaches. Kentucky has a ton of talent.

I can't believe that freshman kid for Kentucky. He didn't score a bunch of points, but his blocks and the threat of more blocks really helped win the game.
