This is an intersting little thing Pat Forde did at
http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/s...id=2369731
He has put together each of the 64 teams best and worst case scenarios for the tourny. Whats intersting about Kentucky's is the last sentence of te worst case scenario........
hh:
Kentucky
Best case: Shagari Alleyne, the world's tallest bench fixture, comes in to block a Rudy Gay drive at the buzzer and save the Wildcats' season-redeeming upset of UConn. Cats exact revenge upon Michigan State in regional final when Patrick Sparks hits a rim-dancing 3 with his team down two. Intolerable eight-year Final Four drought ends with Tubby Smith's worst team playing in the dome where it lost by 26 to Indiana in December.
Worst case: Same Kentucky team that dithered its way to 12 losses -- most since 1990 -- shows up for first-round game against UAB. Faced with gut check against tenacious opponents, Cats check out. Rajon Rondo goes pro -- and so does Tubby.
