A Historic Weekend

This past weekend was an historic weekend. Not because of how well Kentucky played, because truth be told, they didn’t play well enough to win. Yet, history was made because Gonzaga, Arizona, Auburn, Purdue, Kansas, Texas Tech and Kentucky all lost on the same weekend. That equates to seven of the top ten teams in America, according to the Associated Press poll – and seven of the top ten losing the same weekend is a first time ever event in the history of AP polling. If misery loves company, picking up a loss against Arkansas was miserable to be sure, but there was plenty of miserable company among the college basketball powerhouses to keep the Wildcats company.
