Do you know what system they're gonna run vs Kentucky? Did Wisky run some special offense I don't know about? Either they fed Kaminsky down low or they were bombing 3s.
Are they gonna implement some ancient Chinese secret offense vs Kentucky? Their offense seems pretty simple to me. If you do take Wisky, you better hope Kaminsky doesn't get into foul trouble.
You better hope Downes does not get in foul trouble or its over...
Wisc has a version of the swing offense and they are good down on the block, beyond the 3 and can drive and dish, great with screens, dbl screens and can play inside out and outside in... Wisc is the #1 offense in the nation for a reason....
On D, they play zone, man and 2/3..they switch it up and they are very experience squad....
Kentucky is not a good shooting team....
Wisc by 7 pts win

You make it sound like this is something special. This is what most college teams run.
Honestly I haven't decided which team to take but good luck to you.

Kaminsky in foul trouble is like cutting off the head of the beast. I believe that will be UK's game plan, drop it in low and force Kaminsky to play D. Towns burned ND inside and thats what should happen here. Wisc is good at avoiding fouls and helping out on D.
Now, will the ref's let'em play or call ticky-tac fouls?

Of course, I have to mention I have watched every UK game for about the last 20 years as I am a huge fan! But I like to consider myself a realistic fan.
how many final four games have you seen won by 5 points or more most are won by 1 or 2 points

@everybody..... I like what everyone's saying and how efficiently Wisconsin runs their offense. They're no. 1 in NCAA in offensive efficiency playing against a deep long undefeated well coached team that sports the no. 1 defensive efficiency in NCAA. With that, I feel its helpful to look to quality opponents and level of competition in conference play to distinguish any competitive edge.
Kentucky has and will be locked in more than ever, especially after a near upset by ND, ACC tourney champ. Now I already feel Kentucky is undefeated due to a Mickey mouse walk in the park schedule and conference. Where's there BIG conference road win? Did they even play Arkansas in Arkansas this year? I would argue that Arkansas is basically the only real competition for UK, but more so if played in Arkansas. That's what I'm getting at, when pushed to a real test, like up against ND, UK proved they can hang, but just by a bit.
For Wisconsin, these guys play in the BIG 10, a conference with 2 final four representatives. They've also proved they can hang with and beat quality opponents and similar opponents to UK. A Pythagorean approach can even lead us to speculate that since UK beat Arkansas and UNC for example, that Wisconsin who did beat UNC would potentially beat Arkansas as well. Those are quality tournament teams but from almost completely opposite competitively balanced conferences, and don't kid yourselves, the ACC is a much stronger conference than the SEC could dream of. UK carries the SEC. No way UK is undefeated if they play in either the ACC OR BIG10.
Ok, now to the facts and points...
Both are No. 1 seeds with off-setting No. 1 efficiency ratings and have won at least 20 straight games. However, ones last 20 have mostly been against BIG 10 teams while the other was against mostly SEC teams. Y'all see what I'm getting at here?

Good points to bring up. I follow Sagarin ratings pretty closely. Wisconsin has played the 11th most difficult schedule vs. Kentucky's 39th.
Taking out in game variables and looking strictly on paper, Kentucky "should win" by -4. After Whisky bombed those 3's against Zona I said to myself, "nice run, but they won't do that again".
Kentucky's fans travel amazingly and will provide a morale boost if they get hot at any time during the game, where as any other #1 overall seed would be in a hostile environment.
Lots of good points on this thread. I still haven't made my mind up on this game yet, but I think that if Kentucky finds itself up by 3 with 1 minute left they shoot well from FT and can cover -5. 57% of bets are on Wisconsin at the time of the post.

Think 'Tucky's athleticism and length on defense gonna give Wiscy a lot of problems. Wiscy has played 3 top 20 defenses this season...Zona, Oklahoma and Duke. Zona was a nice win, but 10-12 from 3 in 2H isn't happening against Tucky w the length they have on the perimeter. Oklahoma doesn't have a big man to contend w Kaminsky. Duke was a loss.
They have 4 or 5 guys 6-11/7ft they can put on Kaminsky who are better athletes and this team will definitely be dialed in after the ND scare. Also, Wiscy doesn't have the quick guards that ND did (Grant/Jackson) to break down the Harrison twins off the dribble. T Jackson is coming off a foot injury and looks slow and sloppy, wouldn't pin too much hope on him.
Other end of the floor...Wiscy plays no defense, not worried at all about 'Tucky scoring enough pts.

If you are placing a wager based on the conference play against big 10 vs sec I think you are in for a rude awakening. They got worked by duke and only other decent non conference team they played was oklahoma........so we have not seen much outside of the weak big 10......don't care if they have 2 teams in final 4. Mich st only had one good win then a free pass to final 4.

I do not believe this game is Kentucky because of their size and length... I feel Wisc has better team chemistry and have 3 interchangeable bigs and T. Jackson looks great in practice...
This is a game which will come down to the last 3 min and Wisc will pull away and win by 7.....
This game is about matchups...not conf play...blah blah blah....
Harrison twins will have to hit 3 from outside but and many people think just because WIsc shot great they won;t shoot great again....jedi mind trick yourself into losing...

And I do believe they all said the same thing 24 years ago when Duke had a rematch against those thugs from unlv and looked what happened, same thing with Wisconsin this year. Wisconsin wins straight up to set up Duke vs Wisconsin for all the marbles!
