[Strikeout King]

Dick Vitale says the Kentucky Wildcats will cut down the nets in New Orleans.

Vitale predicts that there "will be joy and jubilation in Big Blue Nation" following the program's eighth national championship.

Here is an excerpt:

My feeling is, when it is all said and done, there will be joy and jubilation in Big Blue Nation. In looking over the draw, I like John Calipari's Kentucky Wildcats to bring back the gold trophy to Lexington.

OK, OK, yes basketball fans, Kentucky has shown they can be beat. Their journey to New Orleans made them come up empty as they lost to a talented Vanderbilt team for the SEC championship Sunday. Something tells me that the motitvational talents of John Calipari will be at its best in getting the attention of his talents Cats squad. Yes, my friends, I have a funny feeling that their next trip to the Big Easy will be filled with jubilation and joy.

I know Calipari wants this moment badly. He has posted all kind of numbers, going 52-0 in home games since taking over the 'Cats, 30-win seasons, players receiving All-America honors. He has had No. 1 overall draft picks and a record five players go in the first round. This current edition of Kentucky basketball has all of the elements that are essential in winning the national title.
