In UK head coach John Calipari’s first two seasons, his Cats have been unbeatable at Rupp Arena. But this season, when UK (16-5, 4-3 Southeastern Conference) has taken its show on the road, the team has looked vulnerable. Cats fans can now add the University of Mississippi Rebels to their list of road losses, after UK fell at the hands of Ole Miss 71-69 on a late three-pointer by the Rebels’ point guard Chris Warren. Trailing by as many as 11 points in the second half, UK battled back and took a late lead 69-68 in the final minute of the game.
