Wichita State was expected to beat Kentucky by at least 4 or 5 on the point spread, and with their experience carrying over from being a Cinderella team last season and going deep in the tournament and especially now since Kentucky was on a skid (yes, their performance against Florida in the SEC Champ Game was good but still), the Shockers didn't shock at all, they just #########.
Creighton...do I really have to start. Baylor is a very respectable and high-powered squad from an elite conference like the Big 12 but to lose in BLOWOUT style to Baylor isn't really good at all. And the Big East ain't that good of a conference anymore since everyone either went to the American (Louisville) or the ACC (Syracuse, etc). |

End of story: Wichita State lost to Kentucky when they were on a downhill skid and Creighton's about to lose in blowout fashion to Baylor. |

Villanova almost lost in near-blowout fashion to UConn too
Teams sometimes get lucky in the regular season, more often in the tournament, but if there was a true test of skill, Creighton wouldn't even be really that great. |

"creighton sucks because they beat a top 10 team twice" 1) one-man teams never go anywhere 2) shots fell, mcdermott and co. had a lucky night twice, especially the first time 3) one-man teams never go anywhere
"wichita state sucks because they lost to a great team" 1) no, they suck because they were a final four team last season on a huge run with tons of momentum, and they were facing a team that was really going downhill 2) wichita state faced 0 ranked teams (at the time of games) along their schedule. saint louis became ranked about 4-5 weeks AFTER they played wichita state.

"which means it was supposed to be a close game. and it was. kentucky is a traditional basketball power, and they are still a good team. why is it surprising that they beat a #1 seed" i didnt know history plays a factor into recent and current events
"so basically wichita state should be judged by their performances last year, but kentucky should be judged by their performance in a few games yeah no" cleanthony early, fred vanvleet, and ron baker were on the final four squad last year, they have seniority over a lot of team members and tons of experience too
"baylor is a really good team from a really good conference. creighton is not. why are you surprised" i'm actually not, i brought this up because creighton was overrated, not because they FLAT-OUT "suck".
"thank you. why are you surprised that a team from a weak conference is losing to a good team from a power conference" creighton had a higher seed than baylor? so many people with brackets on sites like ESPN and yahoo picked creighton over baylor? maybe that's why??? tato, why are you even discussing basketball lol "Kentucky going into the season had the best roster in the NCAA Kentucky at the end of the season has the best roster in the NCAA but you know, "skid"" kansas has andrew wiggins but what happened oklahoma state has marcus smart but what happened duke has jabari parker but what happened julius randle aint enough buddy, and kentucky will get smashed by louisville coming up |
