It just seems to me that this year, like all the rest, we should be looking to the ACC for the champions.
Big 12 is again looking like Chit and to be the king of Chit may not make you the king of NCAAB.
I am not saying they are not a good team, as they obviously are, I am saying when they get to Villanova and then Oregon or UNC, you may want to look elsewhere.

By default they have the makings of a national championship team the question is more so will they put it all together. Team is very similar to the squad of the last time they won in Mario Chalmers solid guard play adequate bigs.

They're the team to beat but Villanova, UNC/Virginia are very capable opponents. I could see a little madness in the Terps but if they get behind I can see KU running away with it.

Maryland has been a tough team to gauge this year. If Tremble is off it's tough for Maryland to to pick him up. But Kansas has had a rather easy draw so far and Maryland isn't no push over if they are clicking.
To the OP, I would say Kansas is the best team in the tourney.

YOUR Question is Kentucky that good? NO. They had the best math-ups and they took care of BIZ. The committee made sure WHO ever made it to KA...would have an extreme play card by loading up to 20 teams in the bracket....Of course this makes the bracket look strong, however the OTHER teams have the tuff road.... I have 3 Future tickets riding....IF 1 gets to the finals vs...KA I'll take a hedge on KA... KA #1 conference league play and won their tournament..( 12 straight years.yet the computers rank BIG 12 as the best...<???
With all this said I think several of the SWEET 16 can beat them in a 1 game setting......Maryland IMO is not one of them. They are inconsistent and play with poor vocus in many games...i can't put my finger on it.
1 Weakness. is KA is not a TALL team....so I think taller teams can give them fits... Ellis is ranked top Offensive players Top 10 ...but at times he loaves around on the court.... Look they went 3 OT's to Oklahoma, Buddy Hield had a great game....BUT Oklahoma as good as they were in the BIG12,....isn't showing us why we should see a3RD - REMATCH....(0-2) KY 4th seed lost in OT also to Ka.... Mich St - now kangarooed out was down 7 at the half and won by 6.
Yes you are supposed to believe they are that GOOD.....so you are surprised when they come up short against 1 of the final 8.... As fro the 2 games this weekend....they ran a team out of the gym when they were 28 better.....st start with... UCONN had lots of help with a team who's primary scorer and only SR broke his hand. Look they took care of BIZ...that's ALL.....Next game is next game!
I even think most teams left that Defends the 3 against KA will make them look pedestrian ( just another team).....but SY and NC may be the BEST to do that STOP. { AND I see no way SY can slinky into that final......even with the great breaks they received with Dayton and Mid Tenn. Had SY been properly seated against 1-4 seeds they most likely would have been BOUNCED before...NOW they look to the ZAGs, VA then NC......their completed schedule history suggest they can't get there....good thing for KA. } On the KA side of things I believe all but DUKE, and and Md can give them a run for the $money ...
I am not an historian BUT what % of the TOP #1 seeds actually win it?

PS if we get a DUKE vs KA match-up I believe I will stop watching the tourney anymore.....I had a full weekend of media time outs ruining the better teams run at the BIG guys....
DUKE is currently ranked @ 20 vs KA #2... on my best system...so that would just be a MEDIA forced match-up JOKE.....might get the average BBALl girly watcher attention....not mine!

They're the team to beat but Villanova, UNC/Virginia are very capable opponents. I could see a little madness in the Terps but if they get behind I can see KU running away with it.
GL
Hawaii gave the Terps all they could handle for the first 60-70% of the game, Terps our 5-5 in their last 10, KU hasn't been playing around, 10-0
I see KU smashing them and eventually taking it all. But heck, that's just me.

PS. KU could have named their score against Uconn, think they were up by 18-20 and then took their foot off the pedal. Uconn probably better than MD, but again, that's just my opinion.

I definitely think they are better than Kansas, they have way more quality top to bottom.
I am absolutely sure they can put it in the net, the team has some quality scorers and can flat out fill.
My question is there D. They let ND put basket and basket on them down the stretch.
They probably get by Cuse ( who they beat by 4 and 11 in the regular season and the line here is 9?) Villanova punches them in the mouth and beats them
