Some could call Cal's championship an aberration. I think the championship by Bennett makes the UMBC loss an aberration more than the other way around. Anyone can lose one game. But clearly not everyone can win six games in a row in the tourney.

Is this idiot really trying to say that UK is irrelevant to college basketball since 2012? Good lord, talk about showing your bias/lack of knowledge.
What we do know is that we are all likely top 10 teams going into the season. Exact placement in the top 10 is really irrelevant at any point other than March.
Incorrect. Only one man has proven capable of getting pummeled by a 16 seed. Laughing
Only to follow that up by winning it all. Bennett is an incredible story writer.
Are you so dumb that you can’t recognize an obvious troll attempt? Lol
...it was either that or forever live in infamy. Just wish you guys could've beaten the pukies this past season.
We would have beaten them in the title game if they didn’t flame out early.
I said that I wouldn't rank them that high. At least as things stand currently. Adding a player like Walker would make a big difference. But to say it's not even debatable is ridiculous. Most agree that Michigan St deserves the 1 slot, but everyone else is jumbled together. There are no clear elite teams that pop out after them. All have a lot to prove.
What we do know is KU will have experience and at least two elite players. As good of a frontcourt as any and they should be pretty salty defensively.

The only seasons he hasn't gotten to the elite 8 were:
'13: starters in '12 were davis, Jones, mkg, lamb teague
'16: starters in '15 were towns, WCS, lyles, harrison, harrison
'18: starters in '17 were adebayo, Willis, Briscoe, monk, fox
Yep. It's true.
So virginia wasn't relevant until this year? Kansas hasn't been relevant since 08? Duke hasn't been relevant since 15? Is that what your dumbass is insinuating?
Yep. UVA is relevant. No one else is. Win another title and you can be relevant again.
Whatever happened to Maryland? Or Arizona? Or arkansas? Or UNLV? Or CCNY? Or loyal Chicago? Or la salle? Or holy cross? Or UTEP?
Be careful talking shit, lest we look back a few years from now and you are in this category. And never pretend you can even wash the feet of Kentucky. We obliterate you in every category of winning ever.
Yeah but I don’t care about any of that. I have other stuff to fall back on if UVA does fade away. You’ll probably kill yourself if UK doesn’t win another title soon
Why are we talking about last season's champion? That's yesterday's news. This thread is about this season.
You're an idiot. That team last 2 games all year. One in december on a last second shot to a top 15 team in probably the most hostile road environment ever. The other to a team that defined its existence by trying to beat that kentucky team and barely won in the last 2 minutes. 2012 UK won their first 4 tourney games by at least 12 and their final four games both by 8.
This Virginia team lost two games by double figures, was down 14 to their 16-seed opponent and needed 3 straight miracles to squeak out a title.
This UVA team is 1M times more an abberation than 2012 kentucky.
Crazy stays triggered lol.... far from a typical fan anywhere.... crazy is as crazy does...
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Archie Miller & his Indiana program to vault to the top of the B10. Asphyxiation is a tough way to go out.
Splitting hairs between 1 and 2. But with Wilson we would be 10 deep....with a legitimate 10 not some of these we play ten people so we are 10 deep teams. Are biggest holes are/were long rang shooting and wings. Adding a career 42% shooter from 3 fixes one hole and adding Wilson fixes the other. Dok, when not in foul trouble, is great on both ends, Garrett could win dpoy in the big 12, de Sousa will be tough on the glass and Dotson is a stud at pg. adding Wilson and our first five is as good as any in the country (which is why we are being tabbed first or second preseason)
Honestly, maybe it will be consider a down season for 19-20, but I def believe Maryland can hang with Kansas- going to be interesting to see how Silvio De Sousa looks after 1 1/2 years away...
Doubtful. But it's silly to state anything with certainty when so many new pieces are involved.
How is it doubtful? Maryland is a consensus top 15 team. He said hang not win.
Of course you will say that- you are a Kansas fan
When was the last time Turgeon hung with Self? SmokinSmile
Oh believe me, I would obviously take Self over Turgeon any day of the week!!
However, for this upcoming season, I believe the talent is too close to call between the teams to have a favorite. I would make Kansas the favorite due to coaching if I had to choose.
Well, when you're talking about head to head matchups, coaching is a pretty big factor. Self is something like 7-0 vs Turgeon and it's generally been a blowout.
LOL. Ridiculous. Literally the only thing you can knock Self for is his elite 8 record. There are a hell of a lot more things you can knock about Turgeon.
Very true- but look at Izzo's record vs K all time, and we know who won when they played in the tourney...
Only team I would have Maryland as an underdog to next season without a doubt is MSU..
