The second matchup of the BBN Jam Tournament is sensational, pairing together two teams many believed were Final Four bound.
In 2004 Tubby Smith’s Wildcats were the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive season. The SEC Tournament Champions had only four losses to their name when UAB stunned the Wildcats in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The shock is comparable to what UK fans experienced when the 2019 season ended in overtime of the Elite Eight against Auburn, a team UK had defeated just weeks earlier by 27 points at home.
