Trick question for me, because I am not disappointed with Kentucky. There is a lot of season left and until it gets to be tourney time, I will reserve my judgement of the season.

boom,
I agree. The season is not a disappointment to me. Some of the games have been frustrating to watch, but I didn't expect this team to go 40-0 or even 35-5. I fully expected this to be an 8 to 10 loss season.
This team has a chance to make the Elite 8 (I don't think they can make the Final Four) or go out of the tournament in Round 1.

Wife's Mad. Told me we never talk anymore. And just last nite while watching super bowl told her 2 or 3 times to get me a coke and popcorn. Also told her not to forget to take out trash in the morning. Ain't that something. Also told me I was too indecisive. Can't figure out what to do about that. One nice thing I guess. She called me a pro crastinator. Don't know what a crastinator is but I guess I'm a good one for her to call me a pro. Gonna wait til tomorrow to look that up though. I love her but somrtimes can't help but thinking I should have told uncle Junior to keep his coon hound pup and stevens double barrel and also his youngest daughter.

To answer my own question. No comparison for me . UK is by far the bigger disappointment. I wouldn't be disappointed if Doke lost every game.

Excellent Point. I change my vote.
![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) I should have known it was a trick question.

You got em Handy, good one. We all enjoy seeing Duke have a bad season which happens rarely for them but they are weaker than we are without Amile Jefferson. They use a six man rotation and live and die by the three point shot.

The one game I wanted them to win (and thought they'd win easily) was against Auburn. My wife won two tickets and we were there. Our youngest daughter is a senior there and she has been brainwashed and is now a War Eagle. That one hurt real bad.

EC, that Auburn loss really hurt. We had a 12 point lead and lost it, that usually does not happen to Cal coached teams. We have a lot more talent on our team than do Auburn. Cal told the team to cover the three point shot, to make them drive and take two's but they apparently did not listen too well. The same thing will apply at Arkansas tonight, they live and die by the three point shot and Cal has been working on perimeter defense, hopefully they will cover Arkansas from behind the arc much better than they did Auburn.

2-12 from three point land was pretty good coverage tonight!
Now we know they can do it, they should do it all of the time@

Auburn went on a 19-2 run against us in the second half. There's no way in hell that Auburn team should have a 19-2 run against any team in college basketball. We should've won that game easily. That's what hurts the most.

There is no question we have work to do but we do have the talent to make a run in the tournament. If the coachs can get this team all on the same page we will tough by tournament time. I really like the way Skal played last night and if he keeps on improving we are going to be a tough out in the tournament.
