So many great games and big surprises this weekend -- maybe the most exciting weekend of the season. Kentucky is the obvious choice, but all these games were incredible I thought. Curious what everyone's reactions are.

While I believe Kentucky ultimately won the Big Game, I think it could be argued they had a much easier road to get there. Tennessee w/o Horston and LSU w/o Morris fundamentally changed those games.
Also, Miami has no equivalent player to Howard - not even close. Finally, Miami scored 15 consecutive points in the last 4 minutes and that turn-around jumper with under 2 seconds .....

Agree with all, those other teams are deserving, but none come close to what KY did.

Can't sell Kentucky short this weekend....they won 4 games in 4 days, led wire to wire vs Tennessee and LSU (LSU was a blowout) and then upset consensus #1 South Carolina I'm grand fashion. Nothing about their path was easy, and the magnitude of their win can't be undersold.


Miami's run was spectacular. Have to shout out Destiny Harden though...she single handedly put Miami on her back and won the Louisville game, scoring the last 15 points. She's not a Rhyne Howard caliber player but what she did that day was special.

Both teams runs were incredible, but I'd vote for Kentucky's since they ultimately got the job done and pulled off the biggest upset.
