15. Texas A&M vs Kentucky Wildcats
(14-15)
Talk about a scary game. I know I held my breath a lot during the entire game. Texas A&M came out with a fire that these Kentucky Wildcats hadnât seen before. Double Overtime is never fun.
 The Aggies wanted it more, and they almost had it.
"âWeâre not a very good team right now,â Calipari said. But surprisingly, thatâs OK with the veteran coach. âI donât want us to be great right now anyway,â he said. âWe need to be great at the end of February and March ⌠you win and you learn. Itâs winning and learning and thatâs all weâre trying to do.â Tyler Ulis put Kentucky ahead with a 3-pointer deep in double overtime to help hold off Texas A&M for the 70-64 win. The game was tied at 63 when Ulis hit the shot with 1:26 left for his first points of the game. Kentucky (15-0, 2-0 SEC) was coming off an overtime win against Mississippi on Tuesday. âThese kids are not machines,â Calipari said. âThey make mistakes. They do dumb things, but Iâve got a good group that has a will to win.â The Aggies rallied in the final minutes to tie it in regulation. Trey Lyles made two foul shots with six seconds left in the first overtime for Kentucky, and Texas A&M took its time before missing a long 3 at the buzzer. Down 66-63, Kourtney Roberson made 1 of 2 free throws for A&M (9-5, 0-2 SEC) before a turnover by Lyles gave the Aggies the ball back with 26.9 seconds left. Danuel House missed a 3-pointer with 16 seconds left and Dakari Johnson made two free throws for Kentucky. House finished with 25 points. Johnson wasnât surprised that A&M gave them such a fight. âWe know that this is every teamâs Super Bowl and everybody is going to give us their best shot,â he said."
Everyoneâs Super Bowl is right, but man, this was one of the scariest games Iâve encountered as a Kentucky fan.
