Cincinnati only beat them by 4 and I think they just played Dayton down to the wire.
2. They are only going to get better.
3. SEC is improved, but that doesn't mean much because it couldn't have gotten much worse.
4. They would beat Syracuse by 12+ if they played now, 18+ if they play in the tourney.

Calipari doesn't run a system, it is the easiest 'system' to play because it is mostly one on one and kick out if you don't beat your guy. Dribble/Drive
Those guys have played that 'system' their whole life.
While I think that Ateam(his Big East bias) is underrating Kentucky, I also think that the UK fans are nuts. You are absolutely underrating Syracuse. They are a Final Four type team, and potentially Final Two based on the draw.
