John Calipari and Wildcats react to NCAA Tournament reveal

UK Athletics Do-or-die time is here. The Kentucky Wildcats are officially dancing! On Selection Sunday, the Wildcats were tabbed a 3-seed in the NCAA Tournament South Region.

Other notable teams in the region include 1-seed Houston, 2-seed Marquette, 4-seed Duke, 5-seed Wisconsin, and 15-seed Western Kentucky.

John Calipari says team cried after SEC Tournament loss

John Calipari says team cried after SEC Tournament loss

Dylan Ballard - A Sea Of Blue The players were upset after their upset loss to Texas A&M. Since John Calipari arrived at Kentucky, he has often downplayed the importance of the SEC Tournament. Even before traveling to Nashville, Calipari said this after the regular season finale, “You know the only tournament that matters to me. After this weekend, that tournament.” While it may not mean a lot to him personally, it is something that Kentucky fans have taken pride in for decades. The Wildcats have won 32 SEC Tournament titles, 24 more than Alabama who is in second...

Kentucky was 11th in NCAA Tournament seed rankings list

Dylan Ballard - A Sea Of Blue Kentucky narrowly earned a 3-seed after going one and done in the NCAA Tournament. The 2024 NCAA Tournament is set, and your Kentucky Wildcats will be a 3-seed in the Big Dance. After enduring a rocky season to this point, it was anyone’s guess whether Kentucky would be a 3 or 4-seed in the field of 68. Thankfully, the Cats earned a 3-seed in what looks like a somewhat favorable path in the South Region. If they face the highest seed in each round, a path to the Final Four would feature Oakland, Texas Tech, Marquette, and Houston. Not...

Photo by Frederick Breedon/ Cats! Selection Sunday is over, and the NCAA announced where which team will be playing in each region. Many fans were nervous that Kentucky Basketball would get a 4-seed after losing to Texas A&M in their first game of the SEC Tournament. Luckily, that did not happen, and the Cats also avoided UConn in their region. Now, it is time for fans and analysts to start making their predictions on who will win it all. If Kentucky does, it would be returning No. 9 to Lexington. Shortly after Selection Sunday was over, college basketball legend and...

Dylan Ballard - A Sea Of Blue Burn. The Kentucky Wildcats locked down a 3-seed for this year's NCAA Tournament. They will head to Pittsburgh this week for a matchup with the Oakland Golden Grizzlies. It was a decent matchup for the Cats and a good draw overall in the South Region. It also caused some laughs, as John Calipari gave a great response to Jay Wright during today’s Selection Show on CBS. When Kentucky’s name was revealed, Jay Wright mentioned how usually Calipari and his teams are defensive-minded, but this year the Hall-of-Fame coach has made a switch....

Final Bracketology roundup for Kentucky

Drew Brown - A Sea Of Blue Selection Sunday is officially here! Well, Kentucky fans, it is officially Selection Sunday as conference championships are coming to a close across the country. The Kentucky Wildcats had no stress going into the SEC Tournament, but falling to Texas A&M in the quarterfinals did not help their case for seeding purposes. Going into Nashville, Joe Lunardi had Kentucky listed as a three seed but with the loss to the Aggies the Cats are now a four seed heading into Sunday.

Kentucky makes the wrong kind of history vs. Texas A&M

Denny Simmons / The Tennessean / USA TODAY NETWORK History, but in the wrong direction. Well, it was another frustrating night for Big Blue Nation, as the Kentucky Wildcats fell to Texas A&M in the Quarterfinal Round of the SEC Tournament. The Aggies came out of the gates on fire and shut down every chance Kentucky had to creep back into it down the stretch. For the second time this season, Kentucky was unable to slow down Wade Taylor IV after dropping 31 points on the Cats earlier this year and 32 this time around. With Kentucky’s 97-87 loss to the Aggies tonight,...

Kentucky vs. Texas A&M game thread and pregame reading

Dylan Ballard - A Sea Of Blue The Cats open the SEC Tournament play against the Aggies. The Kentucky Wildcats take on the Texas A&M Aggies at 7:00 PM EST at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. You can watch the game on the SEC Network or stream it live at WatchESPN and the ESPN app. It’s been a wild ride in Nashville so far for a lot of teams. We saw a thriller to start the Tournament with Arkansas/Vandy, and then earlier today, Tennessee lost to Mississippi State. That will likely end the Tennessee 1-seed talks, and it may even put them in danger of being...
