Great season for Kansas...I'll take a loss in the National Championship game when the expectations were that low coming into the year. Tough to lose, but it's all good.

With his character you're probably right.

Definitely a great season. Kentucky was just a buzz saw.

How do you guys think this Kentucky team stacks up to the Florida teams from 5-6 years ago?

I think that Florida team wins. Too much experience against these Wildcats.

That florida team beat an osu team that was fairly similar to this years uk team. Florida was loaded, experienced and a great team.

I think Florida was better defensively and had better perimeter shooting, which would be the difference.

'07 Florida, '08 Kansas, and '09 Carolina could all beat Kentucky, last year's UConn would've given them a game as well. 2010 Dook on the other hand, Kentucky beats by 20+, weakest national champion in 20 years.

Disagree majorly about '11 Uconn. That championship game was so ugly it almost gave me cancer. Last year's UK team should have beat them. UConn was almost as bad as '10 Duke.

Agreed...UCONN last year would have gotten SMOKED by UK.

UK loses to UF, is a toss up w/ that UNC team, beats KU UCONN Duke

Heck of a comeback for KU. I really thought someone had them buried. When Lamb hit the 2nd three of the back-to-back, I thought it might be cruise city. Not at all. They almost cut it to one possession.

I didn't say they would all beat them, I said could. IMO, as a non Kansas fan that '08 team was better than this one, who managed to hang with Kentucky the whole game. The beauty of sports is we'll never know, but we can speculate and debate potential outcomes.
