ATLANTA -- Kentucky coach John Calipari is warning his players "don't drink that poison" by reading and watching comments about the team's path to the Final Four.
"The poison being we have an easy road," Calipari said. "If they drink the poison, we'll be done on Thursday."
Calipari isn't buying the notion that No. 5 Kentucky, which is the highest seed in the South Region, has the easiest path of any team in the Sweet 16. No. 1 Virginia and No. 4 Arizona were both knocked out of the first round of the tournament.
