The LSU men’s basketball team dropped its second straight game Saturday evening, losing 69 to 82 against a Kentucky team that was riding a three-game losing streak.
Beating Kentucky in Rupp Arena is no small task. LSU’s only beaten Kentucky on their court just six times in program history. But still I was hoping that this particular LSU team, the deepest one Will Wade has had, could beat a Wildcat team that was off to its worst start since the Great Depression. It wasn’t meant to be unfortunately and now LSU’s hitting a nosedive right as its schedule amps up in intensity.
