Calipari called Kentucky not getting every first-place vote

Little does Dave know he did John Calipari a huge favor. During the postgame show following Kentucky’s 91-49 rout of Eastern Kentucky, Calipari (correctly) predicted his team wouldn’t get every first-place vote, even betting dinner for fans in the audience on it.

“I know we beat No. 1 on a neutral court, did this. We will not get every vote. I promise you. I’ll take you all to dinner if we get every vote.

Kentucky received 64 of 65 #1 votes in this week’s poll.

Tough break for the fans who stuck around for the @RuoffMortgage “Wildcat Wrap-up” show on Friday night.
