Kentucky has struggled against ranked opponents this season, but I don’t think anyone expected the Cats to be THIS bad against Gonzaga tonight. Kentucky trails the Zags by 23 at halftime, 43-20, and honestly, it feels worse. According to ESPN, it’s Kentucky’s third-largest halftime deficit in the past 30 seasons. Historically bad basketball.
At the first media timeout, Kentucky didn’t have a single point. The Cats finished the half with just five field goals, shooting 16% from the field and 13% from the three-point line. One of those threes came from Brandon Garrison. Is he our most reliable three-point shooter now?
