For the second time this season, Kentucky men’s basketball head coach Mark Pope referred to one of his team’s losses as unacceptable.
This one came after the Wildcats were embarrassed in Nashville on Friday night, getting blown out in historic fashion, losing 94-59 to No. 11 Gonzaga. It was a game that was over by the first media timeout, and at no point did it feel like a comeback was on the way. Kentucky never led and trailed by double-digits from the 14:19 mark of the first half until the final buzzer.
