GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Kentucky basketball didn't know for hours when it would play its next game following Saturday's regular season-ending loss at Florida

John Calipari said he didn't care.

"You know I can’t stand (conference) tournaments anyway," the Wildcats' coach said.

Kentucky will play Thursday next week in St. Louis if Arkansas beats Missouri tonight and Friday if Missouri wins. Regardless of when they next take the court, the 80-67 loss here to the Gators (20-11, 11-7 Southeastern Conference) in Exactech Arena reinforced how fickle these Wildcats (21-10, 10-8) perform and how fleeting their success can be.
