What had the potential to be a special day for the Kentucky basketball program, turned out to be a complete disaster. It was a letdown of epic proportions and Big Blue Nation is an anguished fan base because of it.
We should’ve known it all would’ve gone wrong as soon as College GameDay went live from Rupp Arena to start the day. Nothing ever goes right when ESPN’s Saturday morning college basketball show comes to town, especially when Florida is the opponent. The Gators came in with a 6-1 record against Kentucky on GameDay appearances; that record is now 7-1 after yet another heartbreaking defeat.
