Samford vs. Kentucky preview



After two straight loses to unranked opponents, Kentucky has fallen out of the AP top 25 for the first time under head coach John Calipari. Tomorrow night the Cats will attempt to start their journey back to the top against Samford University. Let's get to know Samford:

A little Samford History:
EST: 1841
Location: Birmingham, AL
Conference: Southern Conference
Colors: Red/Blue
Masocot: Buldogs

Notable Alumni:
Bobby Bowden (FSU Football coach)
Jimbo Fisher (FSU Football Coach)
Melinda Toole (4th runner up in 2002 Miss America)
Scarlotte Deupree (Miss Alabama 2002, 1st runner up Miss America)

In all reality, Kentucky should have no trouble what so ever with this team. It should be a good game for some of the players to attempt to regain their confidence. This should be a 20 to 30 point win, no questions asked. 

I would get into to the subject of  "fans" attacking players on twitter, some so bad they had to delete their accounts, but I won't.  Let's just hope this type of thing doesn't happen again.  For now, let's get ready to watch the Cats put a beat down on the Bulldogs of Samford.
