Hope so too. Would be nerve wrecking but awesome.

I would be a complete wreck. The only thing in basketball that would be worse for me would be Duke vs UNC in the title game.

The TV Ratings would be through the roof.

I think Duke's starting 5 is better than UK's, but UK rotation would be very difficult to deal with if Duke and more specifically Okafor got in foul trouble.

I think talent wise, it's probably closer than a lot of UK fans would be willing to admit. Jones/Okafor are elite at their positions. Cook, Winslow, and Jefferson are great players. I was huge on Jefferson before he became a Dukie. I'd take UK, because like you said our depth is insane. I'd also love to see Ulis and Jones meet in college.

It's all MCD all Americans on both sides. But I disagree somewhat because of our depth. I fully believe our starting 5 could be better, but because of the rotation and platooning it doesn't matter. For instance, adding Booker and removing Aaron makes it more stout, IMO.

But, I also think people forget things. UK comes to flat out PLAY in big games. We've destroyed every blue blood OOC team we played, Louisville being fairly competitive. They excel at neutral site games as well. This team should play excellent in the tourney.

It would be a great game.

Surprisingly, Duke plays really well on the road and at neutral sites as well. Road wins over Wisconsin, UVA, and Louisville really look good on the March resume. UK's resume is very good as well, although the week to week in the SEC is not as tough as the ACC. Kind of ironic how that works with basketball and football. I think UK would have lost at least one by now in the ACC or the Big XII.

Saturday night, it's Bruce II: Electric Boogaloo.

Gonna beat Auburn senseless. Everybody scoring like it's the last 5 minutes of an adult movie.
