Kansas was #1 or 2 in RPI all season based on strength of schedule and no big12 teams are left. What a joke. When they lost to Kentucky 70-41 that should have meant something.

Wisconsin is a solid underdog as a 1 seed.

For what it's worth, KenPom had 'em at #11 going into the tournament. Kentucky was #1. Oklahoma was the top Big XII team at #9.

So if half a conference is ranked 10-25 and they all beat each other, that raises the conference's rank? It becomes a self fulfilling feedback loop. I should be happy, Wisconsin beat Oklahoma in November.

I think the refs want Kentucky to win.

I thought so, too, but there were a couple of make up calls. Go, Badgers, beat Duke.

The Calipari interview was enjoyable -compliments of his players and WI that are backhanded slams. Classy all the way. I hope all those Kentucky dudes go pro
