Watching them beat Buffalo with all their classless punk antics – and all of Calipari's victimized whining...It's very pleasant to recall the three separate occasions we ran them out of the tournament.
Admittedly, I have no point beyond that pleasant recollection.

Kentucky remains my favorite team to beat. Just wish we played them more.
Estill trash talking Robert Jackson before the E8 game followed by Jackson eating Estill for lunch was awesome. That may be the most overlooked single game performance by an MU player in my lifetime given that Wade got one of 3 NCAA Tournament triple doubles that day.

In college basketball, Kentucky ranks right up there with ND and Syracuse as teams I hate the most....
But your post is just silly. Watched almost the entire game and there were no issues.

Exactly. I saw nothing from UK that was even remotely described as "classless punk antics." And I don't think Cal whines anymore than any other coach does.

When it comes to Selection Sunday, Cal going on every channel he can to whine about Kentucky's draw has become as time honored a tradition as One Shining Moment. He doesn't bother me most of the time, but the "disrespect on Selection Sunday" is both overdone and absolutely ridiculous.
Did I hear that right. Kentucky started 4 frosh yesterday? How many are one and dones?
And talking about having a loaded cupboard, Duke started 4 frosh yesterday (along with one of the top college punks of all time Grayson Allen, right up there with Diefendork from Syracuse). Doesn't Duke have commitments from the top 3 HS talents, and 4 of top 10 for next year. The rich just keep on rollin'. There oughta be a rule or law against that--unless we are doing it---then it is A-OK
What rule do you propose?

His antics on ESPN on the Sunday Bracket Show gets old. Classless in what he said about Boise.

Gotcha. I was specifically talking about the game though. I didn't really hear what he said about Boise until brew and you pointed it out.

Yep. Plenty of teams have to deal with distant locations and seedings they feel are unfair...like when MU was a better seed and had to play USU in front of a home crowd in Boise. But most coaches just shut up and deal with it.
Cal just isn't used to playing the first two rounds more than a relaxing drive from Lexington. Hell, even when UK was an 8 seed in 2014, they got to play the first two rounds in St.Louis and the Regionals in Indy. Shut up and play, Cal.

And Cal didn't have to coach a game against The Legend.

Brew you nailed it. He makes me cringe every time.
