Good morning, folks! The moment that the Big Blue Nation has been waiting over 1,000 days for (or just two weeks shy of three full calendar years) has finally arrived. Kentucky Men’s Basketball is back in the NCAA Tournament.
The ‘Cats come into the Big Dance as the two-seed in the East Region with a first-round matchup against the 15-seeded Saint Peter’s Peacocks (19-11), which won the MAAC Tournament to earn an automatic bid. Tipoff is scheduled for 7:10 p.m. EST on CBS up in Indianapolis in what will be part of a 16-game slate throughout the day.
