Coming off the solid win at Alabama this weekend, the 'Cats returned home as big favorites against the fighting Ben Howlands.
First year Bulldog coach Ben Howland brought his team into Rupp with player in Malik Newman who spurned Calipari and the 'Cats for the hometown team.
One of the cooler aspects of the broadcast was Shannon Spake telling the Calipari Powerball story. I am paraphrasing but she said he had the team over and pulled out a Powerball ticket he had purchased. He proceeded to ask them if they knew just how many people were out there buying one of these KNOWING they were not going to win.
