Kentucky annihilates No. 8 Miami: 3 things to know and postgame cheers

The Kentucky Wildcats demolished the No. 8 ranked Miami Hurricanes on Tuesday night in Lexington by a score of 95-73.

This was a fun back-and-forth affair from the start. The Cats got up by double digits early, but the Hurricanes were unfazed by the crazy Rupp Arena crowd as a 13-0 run gave Miami a 29-23 lead. Kentucky answered, though, as they went on their own little 8-0 run to take a 42-37 lead into the half.

After the break, the young guns came out firing to jump out to a 12-point lead just three minutes into the second half.
