Related Topics: Kentucky

On Friday night, the Kentucky Wildcats fell to the Texas A&M Aggies in the quarterfinals of the SEC tournament, marking the second straight year the Cats were hacked down in their first SEC Tournament game.

Kentucky was motivated to beat the Aggies in what was a heavily weighted rematch as it failed to do so back on Jan. 13 in the two’s first tilt in the regular season.

In that game, the Wildcats allowed Texas A&M to puncture them with 90+ points while allowing junior guard Wade Taylor IV to put up 31 points, ultimately spiraling into a 97-92 defeat.
