This is Kentucky's largest margin of defeat in an NCAA Tournament loss since Kentucky lost by 19 to Florida State in the 1972 NCAA Tournament, Adolph Rupp's last game as the Cats' head coach.
Iowa State has never lost a game with Kipp Kissinger officiating
Truly unclear why the NCAA consistently assigns the Iowa-raised kid to officiate his hometown team
Players with 35+ PTS, 8+ REB and 7+ AST in an NCAA Tournament game:
- Oscar Robertson (1959 Cincinnati)
- Bill Bradley (1965 Princeton)
- Larry Bird (1979 Indiana St.)
- Otega Oweh (2026 Kentucky)
The swings this team takes between games is absolutely amazing. Saturday we could beat anybody today we lose to anybody. March is a total tossup. But not sure we can play two or three games or more back to back and look the same. #BBN
HALF: Kentucky 46, Vanderbilt 31
Best 1st half for the Cats this season. Collin Chandler already has 15 points off 5 threes.
Keep the foot on the pedal, Cats.
It’s really hard to remember when we were an elite program. Maybe the team that ended with Covid. I don’t see a light at the end of the tunnel, especially not knowing who will be on next year’s team. Go Cats!!!! I guess.
#BBN needs change.
