Just 15 days ago, Kentucky appeared to be turning a corner.
The Wildcats defeated No. 25 Tennessee 74–71 at home on Feb. 7 and took the Volunteers’ spot in the AP Poll two days later—their first appearance in the rankings since December. However, the bottom has fallen out since then. Kentucky has lost to Florida, Georgia and Auburn in succession for its first three-game losing streak since 2021.
