Here comes trouble...


So on Thursday night at 9 PM, Kentucky plays Cornell... ever heard of it? That's right folks, we're playing Andy Bernard's alma mater for the right to advance to the Elite 8, where the winner will face the winner of West Virginia and Washington with the Final Four on the line.

Remember Mark Coury? He's a reserve on the Cornell team after transferring from Billy Clyde's short stint at Kentucky. I'm sure he'll be looking forward to the opportunity to play against his old team, but most likely will be watching from the sideline with the rest of us.

I don't want to be a debbie downer, but I have to admit, this game scares me a little bit. Cornell is good... really good. They've won 29 games, have beat two ranked teams by double-digits in the opening rounds of the NCAA and have 8 seniors that play a tough, smart brand of basketball. This will be a real test for our young Cats.

We'll be talking about this big game all week, so join in on the discussion.
