The Kentucky basketball program isn’t one that’s built for moral victories. That can’t be the case when you have more victories than any other college basketball program. Calipari actually described losing streaks in Lexington as “natural disasters,” yet another word comes to mind after today’s loss to Notre Dame, hope.
Kentucky fell down by as much as 33-9 in the first half before taking a 22-point halftime deficit into the locker room. Fans everywhere were ready to throw in the towel and call it a day. Apathy was the overwhelming emotion across the Big Blue Nation, expect where it actually mattered, on the court.
