Kentucky is the Trendy Upset Pick in NCAA Tournament

It seems that a lot of people tend to think the Kentucky Wildcats will have a short trip in the NCAA Tournament.

Davidson KO’s Kentucky in the first round
If Kentucky were playing any other 12-seed in the opening round, I would pick the Wildcats to win by 20. Right now, Kentucky is capable of dominating any team that allows John Calipari’s squad to dictate the flow of the game.

They’re not a great 3-point-shooting team, but they ruin you with their size, explosiveness and skill. They’re relentless now.

But Florida disrupted everything Kentucky attempted to do when the Gators limited their turnovers and made 41 percent of their 3-point attempts in a win on March 3, the Wildcats’ second loss of the year to the Gators.
