The Kentucky Wildcats dominated the Troy Trojans by a final score of 76-57 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Friday night.
The Cats came out with a case of the tournament jitters to start this one. Sloppy turnovers and getting sped up by the Trojans led to some ugly basketball and a lot of turnovers.
Luckily, the Cats found their footing and were able to extend a two-point lead to a 35-27 halftime lead.
After the break, the Cats started slow, but then they exploded. A close game turned into a 20-point affair right before our eyes. Most of the contributors are mentioned below, but Collin Chandler played a really big role in the offensive explosion. That kid is developing at an incredibly high rate, but I digress.
Kentucky never really let this game get in doubt, and it was so refreshing to see.
