SportsPickle's 13 Reasons the Kentucky Wildcats are Overrated humorously ridicules the 38-0 Wildcats and their coach, John Calipari.
One reason given is that because Kentucky did not lose a game this season, they do not know their weaknesses or how to address them. The humorous tone brings joy to the reader, while making fun of a universally hated team. Sportspickle establishes credibility as the state that legendary coach Larry Brown said Kentucky would make the playoffs in the NBA's Eastern Conference. They follow the sentence by pointing out how awful the Eastern Conference teams performed this season. Obviously, a college team qualifying for the NBA playoffs is unheard of and impossible, but Sportspickle continues with the humor. They discuss coach John Calipari's lackluster NBA record, and then state that since Kentucky is loaded with NBA prospects, Calipari cannot win with this group, despite the 38-0 record.
