Kentucky looks to have something special cooking. Very fun team to watch. Cal finally has the players who fit his system well. UK has guys who can beat their man off  the dribble and create shots for themselves and their teammates. They take care of the basketball and pass the ball well. And on top of that, they have some guys who can shoot the lights out. Very dangerous team come March. Absolutely destroyed a good Miami team that advanced to the Final Four last season. Sheppard's a keeper!!!

Very well said!  I love Cal and if they win another national championship a lot will have to eat crow.  We’ll see how it all plays out in the end but as of now it’s exciting and we all feel the energy of big blue ready to roar!!!!!!

I've always been a advocate of Cal. When Cal has his kind of players(plays that fit his system), his teams are really good. If Cal has a flaw, it's that he's stubborn. He won't adjust his style of play, even if he doesn't have the players that fit it. Instead of adjusting his style to fit his players, the players have to adjust to the style, and that's often disastrous.  Fortunately, this season, there is no adjusting necessary.

This team has guys who can beat their guys off the dribble and create shots for themselves and their teammates. The assist to turnover ratio shows that they are very adept at doing just  that. Gonna be a very fun season in Lexington. It takes some luck to win a national title but this team has all the ingredients to make a Final Four run, imo.
