Georgia ran an inbounds play with 3.6 remaining to hit a game-winning layup as time expired and defeat Kentucky 63-62. in Athens. UK had won 14 straight against the Bulldogs.

Kentucky’s same old problems appear to be permanent. The Cats could not hit a three and insisted on passing the ball directly to the Bulldogs. Kentucky made just 1-of-13 three-pointers and turned it over 17 times, leading directly to 25 Georgia points. Points off turnovers were the Bulldogs’ primary scoring option. It was UK’s third straight game with 15+ turnovers.

The Wildcats were lucky to get some help from their striped-shirt friends to stay in the game.
