One week after blowing an eight-point lead in the final three minutes in an SEC Tournament loss to Tennessee, Kentucky found itself in a similar situation against No. 7 seed Wofford in the NCAA Tournament.

This time however, UK players knew if they fell into the same trap there would be no other games to bounce back.
