On Friday, University of Kentucky head coach John Calipari said Saturday’s game against North Carolina was a great opportunity to learn about his team. He was right. After grinding out a 73-72 victory in front of the eighth largest crowd in Rupp Arena history, what we learned about the 2011-12 Kentucky Wildcats is that they are fighters. “For a freshman team to do this, have nine turnovers, it’s incredible,” Calipari said.
