Duke just creamed Michigan State and it looks like Wiscy (where I am right now oddly enough) is about to snap UK's historic season.
Who are you rooting for?
None of us has a dog in this fight, but it annoys the s--- out of me that there is always some cockamamie team with [limited] potential who always plays the foil to the destiny team. I would like to witness history and see UK go 40-0 just to see it in my lifetime. The Hoosiers doing it when Gerald Ford was President means nothing IMO, just like the early days of the "NFL." This is the era of cradle-to-grave athletes and one-and-dones. This UK team--and really a lot of teams in this era--would obliterate the undefeated Hoosiers team by at least 40, and to see 40-0 in my lifetime would be a treat.
Course, there is always a team that gets hot with the 3s at exactly the right time, or uncharacteristically begins to miss a bunch of layups etc. (like UK).
i think the lesson from UK's now-imminent loss is, it is so much easier to play to win (35-3 Wiscy) than it is to play not to lose.(38-0 UK).
