Wildcats unable to repeat win over Georgia in Athens

Kentucky mens basketball fell to the Georgia Bulldogs 75-68 on Saturday in Athens as the Bulldogs did not allow history to repeat itself from earlier this season.

Just under a month ago, the pair faced off in Wildcat territory when Kentucky defeated Georgia 85-71 and the Bulldogs fell victim to Oscar Tshiebwe.

Tshiebwe surprised Georgia during that first matchup, putting up a career high of 37 points accompanied by his 24 rebounds. The game made history in more ways than one with Tshiebwe also becoming the first Wildcat to record at least 35 points and 20 rebounds since February 1976.
