Coming into Thursday night, not a single player on Kentucky’s roster had won an NCAA Tournament game. As the clock tilts over to Friday morning, that still remains the case.
The two-seeded Wildcats fell to the 15-seeded Saint Peter’s Peacocks in overtime by a final score of 85-79 in what will go down as one of the worst losses in program history. Kentucky was outcoached, outplayed, and out-energized for most of the game, which was visible through both the on-court play and facial expressions.
If it felt like everyone outside of Oscar Tshiebwe was shell-shocked by the environment of playing in the NCAA Tournament, that’s because they were.
