Kentucky basketball’s normal 4-minute collapse turned into a 12-minute meltdown
The Kentucky basketball team normally wilts in the final four minutes of games, but Saturday against Tennessee it was a monumental 12-minute one that saw Tennessee take a tie game and completely run Kentucky out of Rupp Arena 82-71.
This Kentucky basketball season is reminiscent of the “Wizard of Oz” storyline with the characters trying to find the wizard to ask for a heart, courage, brain and a way home.
Except this Wildcat team appears it won’t be able to find the first three and a way home appears to be just getting this forgetful season to a merciful close.
