Kentucky Loses Ugly, Winnable Game at Auburn as Calipari Discontent Grows

“We let one slip away on the road.” That’s one thing John Calipari was right about on Saturday.

Days after letting Alabama drain 14 three-pointers, it effectively took away the shot from the SEC’s second-best three-point shooting team, yet it still wasn’t enough to leave Auburn Arena with a win. The Wildcats have now lost at Auburn for the fourth time in five years after the 66-59 loss dropped UK to 4-8. There hasn’t been a Kentucky team with a worse record through 12 games since Adolph Rupp became the Cats’ head coach.

The loss at Auburn is more infuriating than the previous seven for a few reasons and John Calipari only made it worse in his postgame press conference.
