Louisville shooting 24% from the field isn't helping at all.

9/37 as of posting with ~15:00 left, 49-27 not looking good.

I should have looked more carefully- this game fits under NoChance's "Unranked vs. Ranked" system.

Cardinals never held a lead....time to find a new hobby bills217

not too impressive for the game of the century

Look even closer, both teams are ranked.

Kentucky is 23rd in AP, 22nd in USA Today
Louisville is 4th in both polls.

Got the thrill of sweating this game out. I woke up at half and it was half time of this game. I called in the under on the second half being two tired to start the computer. Then went back to sleep. Looking at the logs I guess I woke back turned it on at the wrong time (or just in time to watch what looked like would be a loss win). 60pts scored with 2:45 to go w/ the under 73 for 2nd half and Cards starting to foul for possesions. Glad that ended just in time and KU missed several of those follow shots to cover this bet by 2pts . If I remember correctly no pts or 2 pts scored in last 50 something seconds was great. Chopped game..loss of vig..

This might be up for the most inaccurate post of all time award.

There's not much I can say about the Rupp Arena argument except that if you rewrote and posted the exact opposite, it would be true. By any account of players or coaches, Kentucky is the between the #2 and #4 toughest away courts in the country.

Did you even watch the games you're talking about? UNC is a very legitimate team (Ill. game, anyone?), despite their youth. If you don't believe me, believe Vegas. Check the lines on their games. UK never really struggled with Lipscomb, despite the score. They beat a tough West VA team. I will concede the drumming of IU, though it was largely a product of an anomaly 2-27 on 3 pt. Kentucky was only down 15 in the final minutes, IU ran up the score in the final 1:30, and if UK had played a poor, as opposed to atrocrious, game from beyond the arc it would have been close. UK's lost to Kansas last year was by all measures a close one, I'm mystified that you couldn't agree with that.

Kentucky effectively walloped UL today. Might your faulty prediction have to do with the inaccuracy of anything you posted above?
