What. A. Game. The Kentucky Wildcats defeated the #7 ranked West Virginia Mountaineers in Morgantown 86-73 and they did it by making an improbable comeback from 17 points down.
John Calipari’s team grew up before our very eyes and they did it by playing tough man-to-man defense, rebounding the basketball, and riding the hot shooting of Kevin Knox who had 34 points in his best game as a Wildcat.
The questions about toughness and the ability to win games in the closing minutes were put to rest last night and nobody was happier about it than John Calipari.
