From Eric Lindsey of UKAthletics.com, “Maybe this will be the final learning lesson; the last-minute cram for the final exam; one final dose of reality before the march to the ultimate dream. Or maybe this team is that young and that inexperienced, two red flags head coach John Calipari has pointed to all season long. Maybe Saturday’s 74-65 loss to No. 19/17 Tennessee in Thompson-Boling Arena, UK‘s second defeat of the season, was the telling sign of a team that isn’t as surefire of a pick to make the Final Four as some would like to think. Either way, valiant comeback or not, the No. 2 UK men’s basketball team won’t be able to afford 19-point deficits and expect to start the ultimate journey in three weeks.”
