Gonzaga’s Next Move: Can They Silence Doubters After Devastating Defeat?
Kentucky is ranked, but if they keep playing the way they have been, it won’t be ranked for long. They are just 5-3 for the season, so it does, somewhat, feel like this team is ranked still due to their name, and the talent that exists on the roster. The problem is that talent doesn’t always come together quickly, and in the worst cases, it doesn’t come together at all. Kentucky has faced three ranked teams, and they have lost to all three teams. They dropped the first game at Louisville, falling by 8 (I had a win on that for Outkick). They lost to Michigan State in a neutral environment, and in this case, it truly was neutral being in New York. Then, Tuesday, they hosted North Carolina and lost the game by three to the Tar Heels. This was a back-and-forth battle for much of the game, tied at halftime and no one pulling away at any point in the game. Kentucky did have a six point lead in the second half, but that was the largest of the half. Ultimately the Wildcats couldn’t close it out and lost a tough one.
