LEXINGTON – Reset has become the buzzword for Kentucky basketball as it prepares for the NCAA Tournament this week.
It has now been more than a month since the Wildcats last looked at top form, with a fully healthy roster and a dominant performance. While the second-half comeback that fell short against Tennessee lessened some of the sting of the SEC Tournament disappointment, the first half of that game still represented one of Kentucky’s worst 20-minute segments of the season. John Calipari’s team remains a popular pick to reach the Final Four, but it can hardly be described as entering March Madness on a wave of momentum.
