A new year gave the Kentucky basketball team new life, starting SEC play 3-0. As soon as the BBN bought back in, the Wildcats came crashing back down to Earth. After laying eggs to the Alabama teams, John Calipari’s Cats blew a six-point lead in the final two minutes to lose at Georgia, the Bulldogs’ first win over UK in 14 tries.
Now what?
Kentucky had just one four-game losing streak under John Calipari before this season. A loss tonight to LSU would be the second four-game losing streak of the year. With top 25 opponents looming ahead, tonight is the time to get right against a subpar LSU Tiger team.
