Kentucky Wildcats complete undefeated regular season
The Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball team on Saturday put the finishing touch on a perfect regular season with a 67-50 drubbing of Florida.
The top-ranked Wildcats are the first team from a major conference to go undefeated since Indiana in 1976. (Wichita State, of the Missouri Valley Conference, went undefeated last season.) After the win, Kentucky coach John Calipari praised his team's selfless play, saying, "In this society, instead of me, me, me, it's us, us, us."
