For anyone that still had questions about how good this Kentucky team was this season, you got your answer on Saturday. The Wildcats went into Allen Fieldhouse and blew out the Kansas Jayhawks in near wire-to-wire fashion. Kentucky built a 20-point halftime advantage and led by as many as 24 late in the second half on their way to an 80-62 victory. College basketball has been put on notice: the Kentucky Wildcats are for real.
Coach Calipari used an eight-man rotation and got contributions across the board. Keion Brooks Jr. led the way with 27 points.
