The Kentucky Wildcats fell to the No. 1 ranked Kansas Jayhawks on Tuesday night in the Champions Classic by a score of 89-84.
The Cats got off to a slow start as they were down early 8-0 and 11-3. However, they bounced back due to some stellar play off the bench as they roared back after knocking down five consecutive 3-pointers. Despite a slight momentum swing at the end, Kentucky led 48-41 at the half.
After the break, Kentucky came out with intensity and took it right at the Jayhawks. They extended their lead to as many as fourteen before Kansas made a run of its own to get back in the game.
