Will Stein impressed by Kenny Minchey's postgame leadership

The Kentucky Wildcats came up well short on the road Saturday evening. Entering as a top-ten team in the country, something most fans would've thought was impossible before the season started, the Cats faced a rocking Neyland Stadium in Knoxville, Tennessee. The broadcast made sure everyone knew about the rising decibel levels when the Cats took the field as well. Kentucky was down 10-6 at half and then 13-6 at the end of the third quarter. The Cats really imploded in the final 15 minutes, ending up down 34-6. However, while the score is telling, they had just 28 fewer yards than the Tennessee Volunteers . The big difference was in the turnover margin, with the Cats having two lost fumbles and an interception thrown. Tennessee didn't turn the ball over once. Head coach Will Stein hit on that following the game, calling that one of the deciding factors, but there was another takeaway from some of his comments. The way Stein talks about Minchey, who ended with 224 passing yards and completed 26 of his 34 attempts, is telling. With three games left in the season, Minchey is looking forward and is keeping the energy high. Stein liked what

After yet another post-bye disaster, Will Stein must stop another ugly Kentucky trend

Kentucky’s ugly 34-6 loss in Knoxville proved that the post-bye week curse is still alive and well. One of the biggest criticisms of the old regime under Mark Stoops was that Kentucky, after bye weeks, often let down more than not. That continued in Knoxville with an ugly loss that could seriously hurt Kentucky’s College Football Playoff chances.

Ajsa Sivka hits eight threes as Kentucky beats NC State

Sunday afternoon saw Kenny Brooks and the Kentucky Wildcats women's basketball team face their first big test against North Carolina State. The game would wind up turning into a coming out party for Ajsa Sivka, and the Wildcats would roll to a 93-78 victory. Sivka, along with the rest of the Kentucky team, got hot from three-point range early. Everyone was getting in on the act, and they built a 12-point lead at halftime. In the second half, the Wildcats never let NC State get momentum, and made shots when they needed to. Sivka had a breakout, with 32 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists. She made 8-of-12 three-point shots, which tied a school record. The Cats also tied a school record for made threes in a game. Clara Strack was also terrific in this one. She posted 24 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks. Freshman Savvy Swords was also in double-figures with 14 points. Kentucky is now 3-0 on the season, and have mostly dominated in all three. They out-rebounded NC State 38-29, and out-shot them 53% to 40%. Turnovers favored the Wolfpack, though, and the Wildcats didn't shoot it well from the free throw line, so

Will this be the final time Kentucky basketball goes against Bill Self?

When Bill Self was hired as Kansas men’s basketball coach prior to the 2003-04 season, the Jayhawks head-to-head record against Kentucky was 3-19. In the all-time men’s college basketball wins race, KU was 48 wins behind UK for first place — and was seven victories behind North Carolina for second. Flash forward almost a quarter-century later: When No 24 Kentucky (2-0) and No. 15 Kansas (2-0) tip off Tuesday night in the 2026-27 renewal of the State Farm Champions Classic at Chicago’s United Center, Self has fundamentally altered the competitive dynamic of the UK-KU series. Kansas has won the past two head-to-head men’s hoops meetings with Kentucky and six of the past eight. Overall under Self, Kansas has gone 9-5 vs. Kentucky . If the Jayhakws win Tuesday night, Self will become only the 14th men’s hoops coach ever to record double-digit wins against UK. Kansas will enter play Tuesday night only six victories behind UK, 2,446 to 2,440, in the race to be the all-time men’s college basketball wins leader. Given that Self, who will turn 64 on Dec. 27, has been hospitalized multiple times in recent years due to various cardiac issues, it is hard not to wonder
