The 2012 Kentucky Wildcats are one of the greatest basketball teams of all time. They went 38-2, swept the SEC during the regular season and won the NCAA National Championship.
So it’s no small statement to say that this year’s Kentucky team will be the best Kentucky team since 2012. But NCAA.com’s Joe Boozell made that statement in a list of “64 fearless predictions.”
11. This will be Kentucky’s best team since its 2012 title squad
The Wildcats are absolutely loaded up and down the roster, and finally have some experience in Reid Travis.
His analysis isn’t wrong, but that’s an awfully high expectation. It’s kind of hard to forget that one of the greatest college basketball players ever was on that team (even though he only played college basketball for one year) in Anthony Davis.
This team looks great on paper, but there’s not an Anthony Davis on this team.
Boozell made a couple other predictions in Kentucky’s favor. If you’re going to be as good as a National Championship team, you have to win the title, and Boozell thinks these Wildcats will do that.

The 2015 team did not have a player that averaged over 11 points a game and still were 18-0 in conference play.

The key to winning is for all the player's to be unselfish, as Cal says when they play for each other, we all eat.

Don't forget, CMD, they also had the Number 1 draft choice in the NBA that year too!
