Kentucky Basketball: Takeaways from the Wildcats Rolling The Tide

The 'Cats took on the Tide in a Super Tuesday clash on ESPN, what did we learn from Kentucky's victory in Rupp?

The Crimson Tide came into Rupp with their backs to the proverbial NCAA wall. A win over UK, at UK, would most certainly punch their Big Dance ticket. Kentucky seemed to be in for a possible struggle with Derek Willis out and a game time decision for Alex Poythress.

With those two question marks for Kentucky, it meant that John Calipari could insert Isaac Humphries into the starting lineup as a reward for his hard work at A&M and a chance for the Rupp Crowd to virtually embrace him as he is likely still struggling with the technical foul and blaming himself.
