They were not that good with Noel, but without him they are at a level of A Ritgirls or a DePaul. They are getting blow out right now to a bad Tenn team.
Stick a fork in Kentucky!

UK fans will blame this NIT trip on the Noel injury but with him, their résumé consisted of a 17-7 record, ZERO RPI Top 50 wins, & 12/17 wins came against teams with RPIs outside of the top 150 with 9/17 of them outside of the top 200. Their single "quality" win came against overrated, nose-diving 18-6 Ole Miss. The fact that they were even included in Lunardi's latest mock, let alone a 9 seed, was a complete joke IMO. I also enjoy that when showing résumés, ESPN lists every other team's top 50 wins but yet lists UK's top 100 wins like they're the same category.

"After watching Kentucky lay a complete egg in Knoxville on Saturday afternoon and get manhandled by a Tennessee team that's almost certainly heading to the NIT, I'd like a do-over."

I hope by Brutal SEC he means an incredibly weak SEC. Alabama with the second best record has consecutive homelosses to Mercer and Tulane :bat:

Done
In your article "Goodman's sanity questioned after Kentucky suffers 30-point loss" you write, "Opportunities remain for this Kentucky team that is 17-8 overall, 8-4 in a brutal SEC..." I am hoping by using the word brutal you were implying weakness, because the SEC is incredibly weak. Except for Florida and maybe(big maybe) Mizzou, no other teams have good tournament resumes. Can you please clarify the quote, because we could certainly be in agreement? I was just confused in your use of the word "brutal". If you do disagree with my points can you demonstrate how the SEC is "brutal" good, because at the moment I can find any reason to regard them as better than the Big 10, Big East, Big 12, ACC, the MWC. Thanks for taking the time to look at my feedback Mr. Goodman.

Yes, brutal meant weak in that sentence. My bad for any confusion. The league stinks.
