November 12 at Rupp Arena in Lexington, KY
SEC Network
Huge night for Evansville, which got 18 points (and an 8-for-8 free throw performance) from K.J. Riley and escaped Rupp Arena with a 67-64 win.
Not only did the visitors, who are coached by former Kentucky national champion Walter McCarty, knock off the Associated Press No. 1 team, but ended the Wildcats' 52-game home winning streak against unranked, non-conference opponents.
Couple quick broadcaster notes:
Paul Sunderland: "despite the icy roads (in Lexington), these guys are leaving everything on the floor. They're not leaving skid marks!"
Andy Kennedy: "the game of basketball is a possessions game."
Also, Kennedy came through with a "dribble drive" with 5:10 left in the game so excellent late-game production out of him.
