That was fun basketball! For the first time in nearly two weeks, I was actually excited to go back and break down the tape of a Kentucky basketball game. The Wildcats led nearly the entire game on their way to an extremely impressive 82-69 victory over the LSU Tigers. Not only were the 82 points…

Another game. Another loss. Unfortunately, Georgia scored on an out-of-bounds play underneath their basket with 3.6 seconds to play to give them 63-62 win and force me to write that opening headline once again. The victory snapped the Bulldogs 14 game losing streak to Kentucky. The Wildcats will be back in action on Saturday evening…

That was not the performance you wanted to see in a marquee matchup on national television. Kentucky never held a lead for the entire 40 minutes on their way to an 85-65 loss to Alabama in Rupp Arena. Just when the fanbase thought the Wildcats might be turning a corner after Saturday’s impressive win at…

Well, that was fun! The Kentucky Wildcats put together their most complete performance of the season on their way to a dominating 76-58 victory over the Florida Gators. Keion Brooks Jr. returned to the lineup and immediately made a huge impact with 12 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and 1 block on 6/8…

Another game. Another win. 2021 has been kind to the Wildcats with back-to-back wins over Mississippi State and Vanderbilt. Admittedly, that isn’t exactly murderer’s row, but you take conference wins any way you can get them. The only important stat right now is that Kentucky is 2-0 in the Southeastern Conference. Besides the 2-0 league…

Winning college basketball games is hard. Winning conference games on the road is REALLY hard. I know I say that a lot, but it is true. Yes, it was “just Mississippi State.” Yes, it took Kentucky two overtime periods to secure the victory. Yes, there are still a LOT of problems with this UK basketball…

Another game. Another loss. You could have played this simulation a million times and I never would have expected this Kentucky Wildcats Basketball Team would be sitting at 1-5 right now. Yet somehow, that is the situation we currently find ourselves in. I’m a big believer in the process. I will continue to preach that…

Another game, another loss. Despite an excellent comeback effort in the second half, Kentucky fell to Notre Dame 64-63 for their fourth consecutive defeat. A 19-0 first-half run by the Fighting Irish led to a 22-point advantage at the break and the Wildcats just couldn’t climb all the way back from that hole. After putting…

Another game, another angry film breakdown. The loss to Richmond was an example of veterans beating up on young guys. Against Kansas, the offense simply was out of sync and couldn’t produce enough points to compliment a dominant performance defensively. Last night against Georgia Tech it was just an all systems failure on both ends…
