I had forgot totally about this...This is when UK's press and shooting torched LSU for 86 points in the first half....amazing. Check it out.

wow.. this team would score 200 on todays Cats
I know we will get blasted on here by anti-UK fans for living in the past, but this was the good ole days!
Definitely awesome!! I miss it.
wow, that really was amazing, it said they where 14-1 at this time, anybody know which team beat them.. Did they go on to win it all that year?

It indeed was UMass. The '96 Cats eventually went on to beat that same UMass team led by Marcus Camby (coached by John Calipari) in the Final Four.
God I miss those days

Not only that, one of the best teams to ever take the floor.
Kentucky only lost 2 games that year, and both teams that beat them made the final four. Umass and Mississippi State.

Thats because this season isnt over yet
This might have been the greatest college team to ever hit the hardwood. Didnt they have like 8 future NBA players?
For some reason when i watch this video i keep hearing the song "Glory Days". I don't know why?!?! LOL!!!

yep 76-67 i remember cause i used to have a glass with the score on it and the #'s are flipped
yeah marcus camby couldn't get us this year but mike bibby next year and Ricky P tried to take the big step.
