2. Kentucky: Because this talented crew needs someone to duplicate the efforts of the premier point guards who have steered John Calipari's past Final Four teams, and Immanuel Quickley, Quade Green and Ashton Hagans might not have the juice to play that role for this team. That matters because the only Kentucky squad under Calipari since his debut season in 2009-10 that finished with a higher turnover percentage than last year's team -- which struggled to find a solution at point guard and lost to Kansas State in the Sweet 16 -- was the 2013 squad that lost in the NIT.

That's a wide ranging question. There are literally hundreds of things that could keep them out of the final four.

Losing a game in the tournament before the final four would do it.

I'm not sure what this guy was watching last year, but that team didn't "Struggle to find a Point Guard"

SGA took control of that position early on. What they struggled with was trying to find consistent outside shooting and consistent post play.
