Kentucky’s blowout loss to unranked Ohio State was brutal.
In front of the basketball mecca, Madison Square Garden in New York City, the national audience thought the same as the Wildcats dropped six spots in the Week 9 AP Poll.
In the loss, one of the Wildcats’ most dependent assets didn’t have the performance needed to keep up with the Buckeyes.
“(Losing to Ohio State) going into Christmas, it was miserable,” Kentucky Head Coach Mark Pope said. “But our guys handled (the loss) great.”
Forward Andrew Carr walked off the floor in “The Garden” with 13 points, but an 0-4 outing from three and 3-9 shooting from the field was pale in comparison to his strong performance against No.
