Twitter reactions to Kentucky’s dominant win over Louisville
The Kentucky Wildcats get their first win over the Louisville Cardinals since 2019 in blowout style, 86-63.
Kentucky managed the sport from the opening tip, crushing the Playing cards in nearly each aspect of the sport. It was a complete mismatch.
Jacob Toppin had a breakout sport for the Cats, posting 24 factors and 7 rebounds in what was a much-needed efficiency out of the senior ahead.
Oscar Tshiebwe did his typical harm, placing up 24 factors and 14 rebounds and Cason Wallace continued his tear with 17 factors and 5 rebounds.
This sport may very well be the turning level if all goes effectively for John Calipari’s squad. They regarded fluid and cozy, and whereas the capturing (each three-point and free-throw) want heavy enhancements, the offense regarded strong.
As for Kenny Payne, it was good to have him again in Rupp, nevertheless it was even higher to ship him dwelling with a loss.
Kentucky more than likely gained’t be ranked on Monday, however with LSU coming to city on Tuesday and heading to Tuscaloosa on Saturday, Kentucky has an opportunity to show their season round. It’s do-or-die time in Lexington.

Right here’s what Twitter needed to say:
Stable efficiency by Kentucky Basketball. Took the lead early and by no means regarded again
Hopefully would be the sport that sends Toppin to the place all of us need him to be
