     I belive this game will be the game of the tournament and worthy of a final four or national title game.  Of course we all remember the epic 103-100 Kentucky victory in Las Vegas.  Justin Jackson has 30 plus and Malik Monk was unguardable and had like 47.  Carolina will have the advantage inside.  Kentucky has the advantage in the backcourt with future lottery picks Fox and Monk,  I’m predicting another memorable finish.  Key matchups?  Predictions?

    The most important person on the floor will be Joel Berry. As he goes, so does UNC. Kentucky has proven they can win in many different ways with different people leading. North Carolina on the other hand needs Berry to be great to have a shot. With Fox playing the way he is it could be a rough night for Carolina fans.

    I like our chances as long as Bam doesn’t get into foul trouble, but I have the same concern I had against UCLA; I don’t know who on our team will even attempt to guard Jackson. I guess Briscoe, which could either go well or not at all

    One thing to note is that Berry is playing with a bad ankle, he looked pretty slow on defense yesterday against Butler’s guards.

      UK backcourt is better, UNC frontcourt is deeper, but this is really a toss-up.  If Fox or Monk go off the it’s UK all the way.  If UNC can clean the glass and dominate in the paint then it’s UNC.  I think this is gonna be an epic battle and I am amped up to see these two alpha teams go at it.  I think UK squeaks out the W.

     Gotta go with Kentucky here. UNC is at thier best when Joel Berry is at his best and Fox seems tobhave a knack for getting the best of opponents PG’s and is playing the best ball of his life.
