Alabama blows out Kentucky as Wildcats suffer the largest home loss of the John Calipari era
After reeling off a few wins in a row, some Kentucky fans thought John Calipari and company had righted the ship. Turns out, they didn’t.
That’s because Alabama rolled into Lexington on Tuesday night and delivered the Wildcats the largest home loss of the John Calipari era, beating Kentucky 85-65.
The loss dropped Kentucky to 4-7 on the season and improved Alabama’s record to 10-3. This game marked the fifth win in a row for the Tide and secured first place in the SEC for Nate Oats’ team. Alabama is 5-0 in SEC action and is the only team to beat Tennessee this season.
John Petty Jr. led the way for Alabama, scoring 23 points in the game, including four three-point shots. The Crimson Tide nailed a total of 14 three-pointers in the game.
Kentucky was led by Devin Askew, who had 12 points in 36 minutes of action.
Alabama’s next game is scheduled to be a home game against Arkansas on Saturday, while Kentucky is scheduled to travel to Auburn on Saturday.
Thats a nice win for bama. You should be at the top of the sds power rankings IMO. I would love a rematch but that aint happenin unless there is a conference tourney maybe. But you handled UT so you get the nod from me. Im really concerned with all the cancellations. Looks like UT wont play a game this week unless the sec reschedules someone. I wish the geniuses that run this country could get their stuff together and get the vaccines moving at something better than a snails pace. The chinese virus needs to go!
ok put us in the top 25 now
It will happen, even if Kentucky had a losing record. That beat down on their court is the stamp of Grade A quality.
Well, football and basketball have let down the Kentucky Faithful. At least there is still a chance they can dominate in frisbee golf.
Yeah not been a real fun year. At least we got a bowl win. Otherwise, with as low as things have been at times, we may as well be in…a swamp
Coach Cal is too stubborn to change his philosophy. The game is leaving him behind and that was ever so evident last night with how Bama’s style outclassed the Cats. You can recruit all the 5*s you want, but if they can’t shoot the three you’re going to be in trouble in today’s game.
Cal is a recruiter. Definitely not a coach. His only concern is getting guys into the NBA. Does not care about championships or can’t win them so he acts like he doesn’t care. Same result either way.
I think they may have taken a knee the whole game on that one. Cal has lost his fan base with all of his antics. Not many tears were shed on this game for sure.
Wow. Bama beat down. KY is reeling.
Every team at some time has a bad season cannot get things going right for whatever reason this year it seems to be the kids that were suppose be top five star talent really is more like two stars.with pour shooting aside these kids are rail thin and not strong enough to get bumped around and still get shot off.Boston looks like a middle school kid out there.anyway the beating we have flordia was last game I’ve watched not die to losing this season cause like I said all powerhouses will have a off year but when cal decided that it was good ideal to take the knee during anthem I was done then.didn’t know it till after the game so my last game watched ended on a good note.I pray the football team does not scoop to this level
