Like a guy who called into CBS Sports Radio stated, UK was "on thin ice tonight."

They can take their 9 McDonalds All-Americans and go to hell. Wisconsin by 10 points. Book it.

UK fans are insane, calling this the best single-season team of all time. Magic Johnson's '79 MSU, Phi-Slamma-Jamma, UM's Fab Five, Drexler's or Jordan's teams would MOP THE FLOOR with these chumps. The '91 UNLV team would hang 95 points on them.

Badgers are six point dogs to UK.

I'm not saying Wisconsin can't beat them, but if they do it will be a gut-wrenching down-to-the-wire win by a point or two. If Kentucky beats them by 25 I won't be shocked.

Wisconsin +6, have to like it. Dont see any Kentucky players staying on the ground when Kaminsky pump fakes them.

Of course, will Dekker be Jordan like again?

I have Wisco winning the championship in one of my brackets, but I'm not sure KY will play two mediocre games in a row and I wont be surprised if KY blows them out.

Also loved him citing the Fab Five...what's that, one of your starters got in foul trouble and has to sit for a while? Have fun putting in a scrub while UK puts in another All American on the court.

Or by 7.

ROFLMAO -- Hey coach Cal, do you still think freshmen can win the title when this is a game played by MEN? Something to think about on the way home to Lexington with your one-and-doners.

Get some MEN on the UK team by getting players that will turn into juniors and seniors that can ROCK THE HOUSE. Until then, tell your BOYS not to hit their asses on the doors as they cut out of Rupp for the last time.

Bo Ryan and Tom Izzo two of the best coaches in the country. Calipari can suck a dick.

How are those FUCKING ALL-AMERICANS DOING TONIGHT? How great thou art. NOT.

HIGH SCHOOL ALL-AMs ... KIDS! Those upperclass "scrubs" can and often do HAVE GAME and can win the TITLE -- unlike your freshman one-and-done UK LOSERS.

Time to realize that 2014-15 UK played in a very DOWN SEC conference, had several close calls earlier in the season, and came close to having their asses handed to them in the Elite Eight. This was not an unbeatable team BY A LONGSHOT, proven beautifully tonight by UW.

This is not pro sports, where top rookies can and often do have major impacts. Freshmen can't cut the mustard when it comes to truly top-drawer opponents. Something UK fans just found out.

Magic's team ushered in the modern era of Final Fours. Beating Bird's Sycamores was pretty damn impressive.

What the fuck, the vaunted 2014-15 UK Wildcats barely made the Final Four and FAILED to reach the championship game!!

I don't like MSU and I have a niece at NW right now. But you're just blowing smoke out of your ass in an effort to make me look bad. MAGIC AND MSU: NATIONAL CHAMPIONS. That says it all.

No answer, lipidquadcab? As expected. ANY of those teams I mentioned would have beaten UK tonight. Still doubt it?

Listening to CBS Sports Radio right now, correctly identifying the fact that UK looked uneasy in the Elite Eight. Tonight they finally folded against a better gameplan. I give Calipari credit for the record he compiled this year. But he is NOT a truly great coach. Definitely not when it comes to gameplans.

This was a win for college basketball. Wisconsin was great. America loves the underdog. The NBA could never fill a 70,000 seat stadium. Ever. The NBA doesn't generate anywhere near the interest or excitement of the NCAA tournament games.

Your fucking hard on for railing against this Kentucky team is oddly obsessive, of that I don't doubt.

I agree with Ike South. I don't know about ratings but the NBA Game is a far better product. One and done has killed college basketball. This loss was for the Vitale's of the world who just this week was declaring that the Kentucky Wildcats would beat the Knicks. I'm glad Battier called him on that stupid shit. Look at Anthony Davis's team from three yrs ago. They were saying the same shirt about his team. Two of the starters are already out of the league another one Jones is a rotation player Kidd Gilchrist is a role player borderline bust and Davis is a star.

The buzz surrounding the tournament is largely based upon gambling. The interest in it is a mirage most people don't even know the players on the teams participating in the games particularly when you Get past the top 3 or 4 teams. How good can the product be when the coaches are often times considered the star?

White basketball wang-whipped the big, black studs. Now the champion will be white basketball or Coach K.

If Coach K berates Frank Kaminsky, whose side would he take?

I picked the Badgers in my CSFMB pool mostly because I knew everyone was doing Kentucky but knew they could do it the way they were playing. I didn't see Ashley Judd there but would have loved to see her with a tear in her eye.
