When Zion committed to Duke in January I began mentally preparing to take a big fat L to the Blue Devils. But things have changed the last few months. Kentucky returned three key guys and an unproven commodity in Baker. EJ Montgomery and Ashton Hagans committed. And then the Cats added a 5th year senior and All-Pac 12 guy in Reid Travis.
Duke is obviously loaded as well, but very young. They'll be a lot like Kentucky was a year ago in terms of youth. But more talented.
I'll take Kentucky in this one due to our depth at seemingly every position. And the experience on the roster. (Can't believe I'm saying that.) But of course I'm taking Kentucky, I'm a homer. I'd expect Duke fans to pick their squad as well.
But what says the fan who has no rooting interest in the game? (Although most people watching will probably be hoping that both can find a way to lose lol)
