The Kentucky Wildcats (most recent #2 seed to lose to a #15)

[Jake]

I went back 25 pages and didn't see a Kentucky thread so I'm creating one. After all, they are the winningest program in college basketball history.

They are now also the most recent 2 seed to get bounced by a 15 seed in the opening round of the NCAA tournament. Thank you, Saint Peter's.

I have a weak stomach. I ask Random to pick mine. You know Random. Stuff’s always flying at Random, but hitting me.

Correct, and worth a title enhancement.

Kentucky Fans Melt Down Online After Loss to Saint Peter’s

The No. 15 Peacocks scored an incredible upset, beating the No. 2 Wildcats 85–79 to send shockwaves through the East Region.

Few members of Big Blue Nation expected to be in this position this early in the tournament. Kentucky had not lost to a seed lower than 11 in its NCAA tournament history, with those losses coming in the 1980s.

One of the reasons I went from a big college basketball fan to barely paying attention is because in the old days it was fun to watch recruiting classes mature into a strong team as juniors and senior, occasional sophomore sensation. Nowadays college basketball is a glorified AAU league with these one and dones and new transfer rules. Hey, it's better for the kids and I don't begrudge them taking advantage of the new rules to benefit themselves but it really ruined the game, at least for me.

It's so hard to believe how spoiled everyone was back in the day...in NCAA finals alone we got Bird versus Magic, Worthy versus Isiah, Ewing versus Jordan, Ewing versus Olajuwon...it was glorious. And will never, ever happen again.

Up until the mid 2000's I would take time off work to watch March madness then one year I realized that I was wanting to enjoy more than I actually enjoyed it. Sometime between 2010-2015 I stopped watching all together until the final 4.

Best In The World: Kentucky Fans Put A Billboard Right In Front Of The Sorry Ass NCAA Eligibility Center Reminding Them To #FreeBigZ​

This right here is the sort of fight we should be celebrating. Even if you don't like Kentucky just know you're picking the side of the NCAA and therefore are the worst. You want kids to be banned from playing, go ahead and get the fuck out of my face. In case you need the backstory - Big Z is Zvonimir Ivisic, a 7-footer from Croatia who is being held hostage by the INCOMPETENCE of the NCAA. Basically they are still waiting to clear him because he had a stipend while playing in Croatia before he committed to college basketball. You know, a place where NIL is celebrated and even high school kids can make money. But, sure, penalize a kid who did that in Croatia. Oh and mind you it's been since AUGUST. We're in 2024, how the fuck does it take this long to clear a kid (while they've done the same for other players across the country).

We need more of this though. We need everyone to come together and make fun of the NCAA, because they are truly the worst. Oh and you can tell Calipari loves it. Look at that answer about it and that smirk. He, like most coaches, despises the whole NCAA process and how they drag their feet.
