This time last year, the questions were already swirling. Could the 2010-11 Kentucky Wildcats win a close game? Could they answer the bell in a raucous road environment? Did they have the necessary toughness to make a run in March? UK's second-half comeback bid from 20 points down had just been foiled by home-standing Alabama in a 68-66 defeat, sending UK to its second of six losses away from Rupp Arena in Southeastern Conference play.
