Does it make you feel better to know that Kentucky made the Final Four of Joe Lunardi’s hypothetical NCAA Tournament on Twitter? Me neither, but here we are.
ESPN’s bracketologist has been playing out the games on Twitter in “real time,” and on Saturday night, Kentucky knocked off Wisconsin 71-64 in the Elite Eight thanks to some clutch free throws from Immanuel Quickley. Prior to that, the two-seeded Cats beat (15) North Dakota State, (10) Arizona State, and (3) Duke. The win over the Blue Devils came in overtime and had the same score as the 1992 classic, 104-103, albeit with a different result.
