After an impressive defensive display against Kansas, the Kentucky Wildcats’ title odds are trending up.
At the start of the season, most analysts, experts and fans had Kentucky either winning the championship or a lock to make the Final Four. They impressed many during their Bahamas trip, and they had several key returning players to go with a rare senior on the team, not to mention the No. 2 recruiting class.
With that being said, things changed rather quickly after Duke dismantled this team in the very first game of the year. It seemed as if all of the national attention this team received just disappeared.
