Good job Kentucky
Great win Kentucky! Go Cats!
in a 3 months, Mark Pope turned into a disastrous hire to a legit hire. the national media turned their scrutiny to hope after Kentucky beat Duke and had a historic comeback @ Gonzaga. this roster had to be put together immediately in just about 3 weeks, and definitely overachieved expectations. I had none going into the season but if they win again on Sunday it’ll be the biggest win since 2019 vs Wofford, because that was our last sweet 16 clinch appearance. 6 years. Kentucky was once the Dallas Cowboys of football but now those days are thankfully over
Respect for Kentucky on getting that win?
I love my cats but Troy came to play I give them their flowers for playing a strong first half
#3 Kentucky will face #6 Illinois on Sunday at Milwaukee in the Midwest Region
Kentucky is still a little sloppy. They’d better tighten thing up quick if they want to get past Tennessee.
I hope Darbyshire gets a few minutes of playing time during the tournament. He’s a game changer big time.
Just here to see my cats win 💙
On On UK Let's Go Big Blue 💙 💪
Kentucky curse finally ended
8:37 almost the best dunk of the year
Cooper Flagg lead his Blue Devils to a W, Grant Nelson came back and saved Alabama from the upset and Andrew Carr is just ice cold, easily three of the best players in all of college basketball.
WOW it feels nice to win a first round game again. GO CATS.
You are a great and very knowledgeable basketball fan.
We’re through the first round and the SEC still has 9 teams in the tournament.
I love my team Kentucky 💙 for life
We back 💯
The Cat certainly did not like those Troy first half baskets… Go, Cats!!!
We gonna have to play a LOT better vs Illinois or we going home.
Kentucky better put a much faster 5 players for when they play Illonois ! Butler shouldnt be on the floor ! Carr shouldnt be on the floor ! Brea , Owei , Chandler , Noah , Williams ! Faster lineup ! Players that will also get ya rebounds !
When Pope was hired I thought super hire ! Pitino style of basketball ! Mark was a team captain on that super 1996 national championship team ! Watch that team play and watch how Kentucky plays defense now ! Nothing personal !
8:40 Did he headbutt the ball to the player? lol
Arkansas vs Kentucky we need it !
Dang it! I was hoping Kentucky would lose. Kentucky fans are pure trash. They don't deserve to even be in the tournament. Here is hoping they lose the second round.
Kentucky is no longer a dominant program
No matter what happens from here on, I’m a happy fan again. Pope knows the culture and what it means for a state with no professional sports team. University of Kentucky fans take it serious and expect wins. We provide them of funds to where no professional teams are needed. College is better than pro, change my mind..
Even if we don’t go past the round of 32 can’t be too upset. Solid first year for Pope and feels great to have a tourney win again.
