Kentucky Wildcats 58, Louisville Cardinals 50

This game gave me a lot of anxiety. The Wildcats were ranked #1 while the Cardinals weren’t far behind, ranked #4. I didn’t know what was going to happen, the Wildcats perfect record was on the line and if anyone was going to beat them, I didn’t want it to be the Cardinals.

The Kentucky Wildcats had control during most of the game. Sure, the Cardinals have their fair share of spurts, but the Wildcats never lost composure.

There are two memories from this game that not many Kentucky fans will ever forget about.

A. Chris Jones flop against Dakari Johnson. He could have won an Oscar with that performance.

B. Tyler Ulis’ bloody eye brow. That was the moment I knew we had a fighter on our hands in regards to Ulis. That was when the Big Blue Nation knew he was the real deal.

Next: Aaron Harrison for the Win!
