Kentucky Dropped A Heartbreaker To Missouri; How Bad Does This Get? | Sources Say

Missouri was the straw that broke the camel’s back for Kentucky, a nightmarish season for Mark Pope and the Wildcats that doesn’t appear to be getting better anytime soon. How do you give up a 15-2 run to end the game and choke away an eight-point lead in the final segment to earn a Quad 3 loss? Unfortunately, that’s what we have to talk about tonight on Sources Say. The irony is we talked about this result as something we wouldn’t even address, knowing what it means in a truly must-win scenario for a program struggling to keep its head above water. We joked that falling to the Tigers would mean NCAA Tournament chances take a serious hit with no obvious path to fixing things — because if you lose to Mizzou at home, why wouldn’t you lose to all of the other comparable mediocre competition on the schedule? This was thought to be a winning stretch where you could build some momentum. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
