Kentucky as expected, opened up a huge lead, and coasted in the second half in their opener. They did not expend a lot of energy in doing so. Iowa St. looked like they would have an easy one vs. UConn, opening a 36-14 lead to start the game, but UConn came roaring back to cut the deficit to 6 with possession, but could get no closer. This is a dominate Kentucky team, one that has blistered opponents by double-digits 24 times already on the season, and it is “show time” now, so look for their "A" game in this one. They remind me of the 2008-09 North Carolina team that couldn't cover anything in the regular season, but when the bright lights went on, they were what everyone expected them to be and more. From here on out, I look for the Wildcats to do the same. Play on Kentucky in this one.
