LEXINGTON - Call it progress.
After a sluggish start, Kentucky basketball started the second half on a 20-5 run en route to an 82-62 victory over Mount Saint Mary's. John Calipari's No. 10-ranked Wildcats were far from perfect in the game – they trailed against a team ranked 259th by KenPom.com with 6:10 left in the first half – but just more than a week removed from a shocking home loss to Evansville and four days after leading Utah Valley by just one point with 3:26 remaining the blowout victory represented a step forward for a team searching for answers.
