Kentucky sits at 19-6. If we go 5-1 over the next six games and then win the SEC tourney with three wins, that'll put us at 27-7.

To me, that looks like at worst a 3 seed. And possibly a 2 seed.

I would think we would move all the way up to a two seed if we finish the season and win the SEC tournament like you suggested Paulcat. Right now Lunardi has us in his bracketology as a 4 seed and there is a lot of emphasis put one end of season win streaks that can move you up the seeding ladder rather quickly.

If UK finishes the way PC describes then they should be a #1 Seed. There will not be 3 other teams with a better resume than UK's if they look at it objectively IMO.

That being said, they will not, and UK will end up as a #2 Seed if they finish 27-7.

Villanova is a joke as #1 in the country and the Maryland and Iowa teams that I watched this weekend sure didn't look like Top 5 teams to me. Maryland got destroyed on their home court by an AVERAGE Wisconsin team.

Trey, you and I are seeing basketball through the same eyes right now. If Villanova is the best team in America, college basketball is in trouble. Who have they beaten, some big East teams that are also ranked because they cover the bigger TV viewing markets nationally. I have only seen Villanova play one game all season long and they looked like an average team at best to me.

A so so Wisconsin team went into Maryland's back yard and gave them a good butt kicking.
