Deep Cuts: Kentucky

After boat racing the second most winningest college basketball program in the Kansas Jayhawks in the Round of 32 and putting together a dominant 2nd half against the third most winningest basketball program in the Sweet 16 in the North Carolina Tar Heels, Auburn found themselves facing college basketball’s most winningest program in the Kentucky Wildcats in the Elite 8. The same squad that had beaten the Tigers twice already, including a 27 point thumping in Lexington, KY when the Kats were down Reid Travis and Auburn still had Chuma Okeke. This go around, Auburn would not have their star forward while UK would have their big man.
