Kentucky looked kind of shaky against ODU. And this isn't a great ODU team by any means- certainly not anywhere close to last year, for instance. I still think they're the best team in the country but the margin isn't as wide as I initially thought.

Phil since Im pretty sure you won just say because they are better, or Ohio St and Kentucky will beat UNC or you stop.... Can you explain how Kentucky is better then UNC? I dont even think its close. I have watched Kentucky play, I dont see it.

I was less than impressed by UNC against Michigan St. I know it was on an aircraft carrier, so the play was understandably sloppy, and has played three barely D1 teams, so essentially they are 1-0 against real opponents with a 12 point win over a 12 seed. UK body slammed three overmatched opponents and beat a very good team by 10 and a good team by 10 on neutral floors.

One of the three is 1/5 to win the national championship, however. Nobody else is close.

Considering that they have had like 9 practices together you have to expect some shakiness at this point.
