Kentucky lost it's final game last year to West Virginia in very disappointing fashion. The team is 29-8 on the season. Winners of 10 in a row. Of their 8 losses this year and final loss last year, they are:

03/27 to West Virginia
11/24 to Connecticut
12/04 to North Carolina
01/08 to Georgia
01/18 to Alabama
02/01 to Mississippi
02/05 to Florida
02/12 to Vanderbilt
02/23 to Arkansas

After those losses:

03/19 win over West Virginia (NCAA Third Round)
04/02 vs Connecticut (Final Four)
03/27 win over North Carolina (NCAA Regional Final)
01/29 win over Georgia (SEC regular season)
03/12 win over Alabama (SEC Tournament Semifinals)
03/11 win over Mississippi (SEC Tournament Quarterfinals)
02/26 win over Florida (SEC regular season)
03/13 win over Florida (SEC Tournament Finals)
03/01 win over Vanderbilt (SEC regular season)

Of last 9 losses, Kentucky has avenged 7 of them by defeating that team (Florida twice) in their next meeting. They will have a chance at Connecticut again next Saturday. Only Arkansas did they not get to play again. Still, it's crazy how things played out.

What's funny is they were also 0-5 all-time against Ohio State in the NCAA Tournament, and they defeated the Buckeyes. They were also 0-4 in Elite 8 games since 1998, losing to Michigan State in 1999, Marquette in 2003, Michigan State in 2005 and West Virginia in 2010.

I was thinking about that for a couple days now too. Crazy crazy.

Well they won't have anything to avenge if they meet Butler or VCU in the Finals...so you know what that means.

The more crazy thing is, that last year's team was the team you would expect to be in the final 4......not this years. And with all the talent they will have returning and all the 5*s coming in, they should be a national title contender easily next season. Also, in two years Cal has gotten UK in the elite 8 and final 4 while Billy Clyde was taking them to the NIT.
I hope they take care of Uconn. That's one loss that wasnt very pleasant. That's when Kemba Walker started his cockiness.

.....and has backed it up ever since

In all actuality, Kentucky is lucky it beat Princeton. Good season for the Cats.
