Good morning BBN! Safe to say this is one of, if not the most pleasant morning we’ve all had following a Kentucky Basketball game this season.
Of all the wins Kentucky has ever had over the Tennessee Volunteers — 159 to be exact — this one is up there.
It wasn’t just that an unranked Kentucky team went into Knoxville and beat a top-five Vols team. This was a win John Calipari and his Wildcats needed as much as they’ve ever needed a win under his watch.
After the loss to South Carolina, the vibes around the program had reached an all-time low under Calipari.
