Kentucky coach John Calipari is trying to keep the burden of chasing history off his players, who can help the Wildcats tie their best start in school history Saturday.
The top-ranked program will try to reach 25-0 for the first time since 1953-54 by getting past visiting South Carolina.
To preserve its run at perfection, Kentucky (24-0, 11-0 SEC) had to rally from a six-point deficit in the final seven minutes Tuesday at LSU. The Wildcats then watched the Tigers miss a late 3-pointer while hanging on for a 71-69 victory.
Calipari attempted to take some of the pressure off Division I’s lone unbeaten team before that game by sending out a prank message on Twitter, which got nearly 2,000 retweets.
