For the first time since he arrived in Lexington, John Calipari and Kentucky have now lost five straight games.
No. 22 North Carolina beat the Wildcats 75-63 on Saturday afternoon at Quicken Loans Arena, which drops them to a measly 1-5 start — the programs worst start since the 1926-27 season, per ESPN.
“I thought before the game we were going to get this game,” Calipari said, via the Lexington Herald Leader. “We had our chances. Let go of the rope … I’m so disappointed, especially the last 10 minutes of the game.”
Kentucky actually led throughout most of the contest on Saturday, too.
