John Petty Jr. scored 23 points, including four of Alabama’s 14 3-pointers, Jaden Shackleford added 18 points and Alabama never trailed Kentucky to earn an 85-65 rout Tuesday night in a matchup of the SEC’s top two unbeaten teams.
The win not only snapped an 8-game losing streak in Rupp Arena for the Crimson Tide, but it was also the largest win by a Bama team in Lexington since a 23-pt win back on Feb. 23, 1974, when the Tide defeated the Wildcats 94-71.
Kentucky head coach John Calipari met with the media following the game to talk about the performance. Video is courtesy of the SEC.
