Kentucky’s 5 Best Regular Season Games Under John Calipari

What’s your favorite regular season memory from the John Calipari era?

Was it in a thundering Rupp Arena against a rival? Or in a vacation spot against a blue blood? Or maybe complete domination? Calipari is better known for his postseason wins (and woes, as of the recent past) but there are a handful of regular-season games Kentucky fans will remember as fondly as some of the prominent postseason triumphs, so I attempted to compile the best list of five that I could. (For the record, the win in 2016 vs. UL is the first out/honorable mention; the Bronx Salute Game as I called it last Sunday, Pitino’s farewell and legitimately the most competitive, well-played game by both sides since Calipari arrived).
