Breakout performance for Crimson Tide leads to disappointing 77-75 loss for Kentucky

Another day, another breakout game for a Kentucky opponent. And it eventually led to a crushing 77-75 road loss to Alabama, the first time the Cats have lost to the Crimson Tide since 2013.

Alabama forward Tevin Mack, a 29-percent three-point shooter on the year, finished the first half with a ridiculous 20 points on 6-6 shooting from deep. As a team, the Crimson Tide were shooting 34 percent from three going into today’s matchup with the Cats, but somehow managed a clip of 7-11 (64 percent) to close out the first half.

As a result, Kentucky led by just two points at the half, 40-38.
