Dick Vitale is a legend, and he called out Kentucky basketball in a way that every single member of BBN will agree with.
"The loss by u2066@KentuckyMBB u2069 can be summarized very simply by : 3 words : POOR TEAM DEFENSE ! When you score 88 points you should be coming home with big victory - giving up 96 is certainly unacceptable if your goal is to win the 2026 national title!"
And he is exactly right. When your offense puts up 88 points in a hostile road environment, you should win the game. Instead, Kentucky was down 20 points at one time and lost by 8, because the defense was a complete and total disaster.
