They are betting on how bad Roy will allow the beating to be against his former and long time assistant coach and friend.

Remember the days when we went into a game like this with a realistic shot to shock the world?

Playing a team that is legit top 10 and should probably be in the top 5? Are you referencing a few years ago when we had a halftime lead on Duke in the tournament?

The term "shock the world" indicates a huge upset. But, we have had years were we looked at this as an opportunity to actually "shock the world". The fans, players and coaches all thought "these guys don't realize what they're getting into". And if we were overlooked or looked past, an upset was at least possible. Does anyone think there is even a 1% chance we "shock the world" tonight?

Also, not sure why you think they are top 10 or top 5 already. They beat Notre Dame, not Kansas. Let's see how the season plays out.

Simple really why I think they are top 10 right now. Most notably, because they're actually ranked #9 and have a conference win under their belt in their opener. Yes, they beat ND not Kansas. Appreciate your stellar analysis there. Out of the current top 5, I would say Louisville has the least chance of staying there and Carolina usually stays in the top 10, so they have a legit shot at top 5 this year. They're a good team.

I'm not sure why you chose to take this shot at me for that simple statement, but... have a good day.
