It doesn’t matter what the score is; Kentucky always has a chance against Tennessee.
On Saturday night in Rupp Arena, the Wildcats overcame yet another massive second-half hole to take down the Volunteers by a final score of 74-71. Kentucky trailed by as many as 14 points going into halftime before mounting an impressive comeback in the final 20 minutes. Collin Chandler once again came up clutch with a huge three-pointer in the closing minute that ultimately locked up the win.
Kentucky’s defense was spectacular in the second half, holding Tennessee to just a 6-30 mark from the field after the intermission.
