And just like that, Kentucky basketball’s regular season has come to a close, ending the year with a 71-63 road victory at Florida to finish with a final record of 25-6 overall and 14-4 in the SEC. As a team, the Wildcats shot 50 percent from the field (28-56) and allowed the Gators to shoot just 41 percent (25-61) and 15 percent from three (3-20).
