Summary

What in the WORLD happened in College Station? How do you build a 12-point lead and watch it not only disappear, but flip to a 21-point deficit in a matter of minutes? Where do you turn when you have a double-bye within reach and then give it away to force a potential Wednesday start in the SEC Tournament? Also, is Dink Pate the answer to all of Kentucky‘s problems in year three under Mark Pope? It’s a crazy week for the Wildcats and it’s only going to get crazier with this weekend setting up a massive postseason for the head coach and program as a whole.

0:16.0	I'm your host, Jack Pilgrim of Kentucky Sports Radio.
0:18.8	Very excited to be joined once again by the one and only Sean Smith.
0:23.5	Sean, how the heck are you?
0:25.7	I'm doing well, Jack Pilgrim.
0:27.2	How are you?
0:28.3	Terrible.
0:30.3	Terrible.
0:31.7	I'm disappointed.
0:32.9	I'm tired of this.
0:33.9	Why do we got to do this?
0:35.6	Like just when you weren't able to be on the last show, we had Michael Moreno on, who was just incredible as always. And like we ended the show going, hey, let's go two and oh this week. Let's go land Tyron Stokes. Let's go win the SEC tournament. Let's go get a double by. Let's, you know, be a number four seat in the instella tournament. let's go, let's go to the final four. Let's just do it. Like, just as, as optimistic of an outlook as you
0:58.4	could possibly dream of. And then Kentucky just craps the bed in the worst way imaginable

1:36.3	But I would put Trent Noah in the conversation to say, hey, I trust him to hit that shot and carry things the rest of the moment of the rest of the way.
1:47.0	That turns into a 36 to 6 run, a 45 to 10 run overall to allow Texas A 10
1:56.0	team to take a 21 point lead in the second half and run away with a fought back a little bit, turns into an 11 point win, but never close, never even competitive in the second half and run away with a fought back a little bit turns into an 11 point win but never close never never even competitive in the second half just as much of a demoralizing humiliating like whiplash what the hell happened kind of performance for the cats i i can remember and who knows how long.
