The Kentucky Wildcats were scorching hot coming into Wednesday and had won four-straight games, including a 32-point blowout against Auburn and a home victory against a top 10-ranked Tennessee team.
However, the Cats fell short on Senior Night against the Vanderbilt Commodores, losing 68-66. In the loss, Oscar Tshiebwe racked up 21 points and 20 rebounds.
Yes, the Cats lost point guard Cason Wallace, but they already trailed in the second half when the star freshman went down.
The Cats would fight back, as they trailed by double digits with under 10 minutes to go and led with under a minute to go before losing by a shot made by Vandy’s Jordan Wright.
