There's one major problem, they have John Calipari, the biggest choke of a coach in NCAA history
Even when he cheated his way through the tournament, they still couldn't win.
They have the talent on the team to win it all, it's their coach that will hold them back. They have the same problem Michigan State has with Tom Izzo. MSU will make another Final Four this year, but again will fail to capitalize as they always do.
Kentucky has been the top seed 9 times in school history, and only once did they win the title. Their other 6 titles all came as a lower seed. That's not good odds.
North Carolina, on the other hand, has been a 1 seed 13 times, and won 5 titles as a 1 seed. The odds are heavily in their favor. Not to mention, they are peaking at the right time. Kentucky hasn't lost since December 10, so they have a lot of pressure on them. They'd be doing themselves a favor if they lost a game before the NCAAs.
Then you look into some more stats that are far more telling. Kentucky's strength of schedule is 36th. North Carolina's is 4th, so they are far more battle ready than UK. Even with the featherweight schedule, Kentucky is ranked 18th in scoring against some of the weakest defenses in the country. And they're ball hogs, dishing out assists to the tune of 123rd place.
Compare that to North Carolina, who is 2nd in scoring, 1st in rebounding, and 4th in assists. They play offense and defense, and they spread the ball around. And that's against one of the toughest schedules in the country. It's no contest. If Kentucky gets a cupcake region, they'll probably make it to the Final Four, but I wouldn't bank on it. But if they even get a slightly difficult region, they will be lucky to make the Sweet Sixteen.
