March Madness is here, and hopefully, it ends up much better than it did last year for the Kentucky Wildcats.
After being a 2-seed and a popular pick to reach the Final Four last year, Kentucky was upset in the first round by 15-seed Saint Peter’s, one of the only first-round losses in program history.
This year is a little different. After an up-and-down season, the Cats got in as a 6-seed and had a less-than-stellar showing in the SEC tournament, losing in the quarterfinals.
Their backs are against the wall, and they’re an afterthought for most casual fans this season.
