WATCH: The moment Kentucky found out its NCAA Tournament draw

The Kentucky Basketball team hosted its NCAA Tournament Selection Show party at the Champions Club at Rupp Arena today, a change from years past. We’ll have plenty of reactions from the Cats to roll out tonight, but let’s start with the moment they found out their draw.

Watch below as Kentucky reacts to finding out it is the No. 3 seed in the Midwest Region, facing No. 14 seed Troy in the first round in Milwaukee. If the Cats beat the Trojans, they’ll face the winner of No. 6 Illinois and No. 11 Texas/Xavier. No. 2 seed Tennessee could be waiting in the Sweet 16 in Indianapolis. (If you listen closely, Steven Peake has thoughts on that.)

After the news was revealed, Mark Pope went through and slapped each player on the hand before making the rounds to greet fans. (If you’re wondering where Trent Noah is, Mark Pope said he is sick, a “24-hour deal.”)
