Texas in the second round? Wake Forest? This is why the Kentucky Wildcats went 32-2 and is ranked second in the Nation? All of the battles to stay on top and the NCAA stick the Cats with a very tough road just to make the Sweet 16. Kentucky is not the only team who has a tough road to the the Championship. Kansas has the toughest bracket and will have to possibly face Michigan St. or Maryland to make it to the Elite 8. Giving Duke a pie bracket really makes me believe in the ESPN bias.

I just don’t understand why the NCAA did the bracket the way they did. If Kentucky is the second best team in the nation, then why don’t they have a little easier road? It is like the committee closed their eyes and started pointing and that is where the teams went.
Remember this bracket in future tournaments, because regular season play does not play into seeding. How could it? Kentucky could have had an easier road by switching with Villanova as the #2 in the South. Look at their bracket. I would trade in a heart beat.
I sometimes laugh at how Kentucky fans feel like we are always getting the short end of the stick. If it isn’t the officiating, it is the media that is trying to beat us. Well, add the NCAA to the list. Our tournament resume must have been thrown in the trash.
