Its actually insane for anyone to claim UNC deserves a higher seed than UK...

I do agree with you that UK, with Reid full healthy, is a tough matchup for UNC inside. That game was one of the worst UNC played all year, with the exception of probably Louisville and Michigan, and if I recall correctly UK was unusually hot from 3. I don't really want to see UK in our bracket, but that game wasn't indicative of the margin between the two. A good night for UK and an ugly one from UNC. Regardless, I don't think a single non-conference game in December is going to weigh all that heavily with the committee.

They shot 35% from three. Not really hot at all. They just shot a lot more than they usually do. UK was just a better team and a good matchup against UNC.
